Celeste, Upper West Side, Manhattan, New York



Margherita Pizza at Celeste, originally uploaded by Aaron Landry.

A couple blocks away from Aaron and Cara Lynn’s new place in the Upper West Side is Celeste.

A smaller menu and a good take on Neapolitan. My Pizza Margherita, fired up in their wood fire oven had a nice crisp crust, very fresh basil (Cara Lynn commented right away on enjoying simply smelling the basil) and a lot more cheese than I’m used to on a pizza of this style. I almost never complain about extra cheese — I was just surprised.

Service was decent. Overall a great dinner and paired with great wine.
