It’s my first time at Posto, and I’m impressed by the ambiance, service, and food. We tried the #8 pizza, and it’s easily one of the best I’ve ever had. The arancini was absolutely amazing—far exceeded my expectations! Their cocktails are also fantastic. I’ll definitely be returning to explore more of their menu, both pizzas and non-pizzas. Oh, and a bonus: every Sunday, pizzas are 50% off!
