Great Lake

Warning: Everything at this high-design pizzeria is tiny. The space fits one communal table and a shelf of carefully selected sundries, while the menu consists of only a few pizzas (and no, a create-your-own option isn’t one of them). Perhaps most important, owner and pizzaolo Nick Lessins is the only one who touches the pizza, and he makes them one at a time. Could it be worth the wait? Thanks to the puffy, chewy crust; the house-pulled mozzarella; layers of fresh, earthy mushrooms; and an obsessive eye for detail, the answer, if your mouth isn’t already watering, is yes.
