Screaming Banshee Pizza - don't let the name fool you; this is one of the most delightfully relaxing places in town. Owners Christie and Kerri have done the impossible - making a new restaurant feel like it's been a part of the scene forever, in the very best sense. These gals have something you can't buy, yet is absolutely essential to a successful restaurant - impeccable taste. A welcoming air envelopes you from the moment you walk in the door and doesn't stop until you leave blissfully satiated. Great service, fun decor and an amazing wine and beer selection will make sure you get off to a good start. And the food? Oh, my god! Christie, Kerri and dough goddess Juliette put nearly a year's worth of research into perfecting their pizzas; their hard work shines through in every bite. Click for their menu - and don't forget to check the special board for the inventive combos. Their creativity never misses. Pizza is not all that's offered (though you'd be crazy not to try some) - large salads and delicious appetizers are also available. My boyfriend and I always say we're going to make a meal by selecting items off the app menu (which you could easily do), but we're always lured back to the amazing thin-crust pizza. It's difficult to break tradition with something so tantalizing. Well, I think I've exhausted my adjectives for the day. If this isn't enough of a rave review, I don't know what else to tell ya! One last pitch - owners and employees alike are all super cute. What goes better with a sit down meal than a fabulous pair of ta-tas?
