Scusi Pizza

Pizza$

This casual pizzeria from chef Laurent Tourondel at the Piazza Alta in Northern Liberties offers 16-inch pizzas (such as the Francese, layered with mushrooms, prosciutto cotto, comté, gruyere, and pili pili oil) and 12-inch gluten-friendly pies; crust dippers (pesto, truffle aioli, hot honey, and ranch); small plates; and soft serve. Executive chef Georgeann Leaming, you may remember, had a great run a decade ago with Suppa in nearby Liberties Walk. Tourondel, who won a Michelin star with his erstwhile BLT Fish in New York, is also working on Terra Grill next door.
