Here's your Proto's Pizza signage; and no $1 slices


Sign is up now at Proto's Pizza, where Enzo's was on Second Avenue between Third Street and Second Street... Enzo's closed last May...

Neighborhoodr has more on the incoming pizzeria:

The owner’s first go at a pizza place. Aims to hit the sweet spot of offering a high-quality slice for around $2.50. No dollar slices here. "I'd rather go out of business than have to compromise quality. You’re in New York. Do it right," says Mr. Proto, a Brooklyn native.

    $2.50 is fine if the quality is good....there are far too many mediocre pizza joints around which charge that or more. Fingers crossed....

    With you, @Anon 5:48 PM.

    Let's hope they nail it. Otherwise, add it to the list of mediocre joints, low or appropriately-price.
