The new addition has already attracted fans thus far, with a five-star rating out of 10 reviews on Yelp.

Natalie S., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on May 3, wrote, "Wow, what an amazing experience! We ordered the meatballs as a starter and they were amazing. We shared a half-and-half pizza because we weren't too hungry. The Pig was on the spicy side, but it was loaded with delicious meat and very good. The Bianca was so flavorful!"

And Dana C. wrote, "My friend and I ordered the Chef's Board with meat and cheese and some other goodies. Then, we split the Margherita pizza and it was amazing. We also had the sangria and it was delicious, too."
