About The Backspace

A compact downtown pizza spot built around a hand-built brick oven turning out Neapolitan pies with proper char, imported 00 flour, San Marzano tomatoes, and airy crusts that somehow still hold structure. The all-Italian wine list and daily happy hour on antipasti and glasses make it an easy pregame, late dinner, or “one more stop” kind of place near 6th Street.
