Coconut House: Suprisingly Good Pizza Italian food Review

They make a variety of individual-sized pizzas, in case you're craving a little 'back-home' cuisine.
One word of caution: The oven is small and they only bake one pizza at a time. So if there is a large group already sitting down and looking like they've been waiting for a while, either be prepared to wait a loooong time, or come back another time. I'm talking from experience!
