Lenny's New York Pizza


garlic knots
Calzone
Lenny's is one of the few places in town to get a truly great pizza.  As you can see from the picture the pieces are HUGE!  I and I do mean huge.  One slice would fill just about anyone. Notice the size of the fork in relation to the slice?  Yeah, it's that big.  And it's only virtue isn't it's size; it is a pretty darn fine slice of pizza.  Lenny's is conveniently located near my favorite beach spot and I will take any excuse to head on in for a bite.  I do have a problem when I go there;  I need to order the garlic knots.  They are amazing!  A single knot could fill you up and the order come with, I think, 8.  I order the and I eat one.  Now I am too full for my pizza but I soldier on and try to eat some of it.  As if I haven't eaten enough fat and calories, I have to drizzle some of the unbelievable garlic, oil and Parmesan on the pizza;).  I try to tell myself I burned a lot of calories at the beach, but I don't think a week of aerobics would work it off but hey, every once in a while right?  My family all enjoy the garlic knots also, so I get help eating them. And I can blame them when the next day my clothes feel a tad snug.  I haven't had the pleasure of trying every ting on the menu; really I haven't been able to get beyond the pizza and the knots.  With the intent of taking a lot home, this trip, I did order an eggplant pinwheel.  It was very good too.  The service there is not traditional.  Depending on who is there, you may get someone who comes out to the table, but usually we get our own menus and sit, someone from the kitchen asks what we want, and we holler it out to them.  I admit I thought it a bit odd at first, but it has come to have it's own charm. 
Clockwise from top: Cheese Sticks, Veggie Slice, Pinwheel

Bottom line, it's good.  It's not fancy but it's good food for a good price and you can roll on in in your bathing suit.
