Flying fish roe wasabi smoked salmon bagel. Do a few of their maracoons for a bite after, too.

The Hellboy squared aka the Freddy Prince with Pepperoni and hot honey drizzle is by far the best slice here

A faithful recreation of the original. Charbroiled burgers cook to order. One of the best in the city. Ask for the grilled onions.
