Signage for Farinella, a pizzeria which used to have a location on Amsterdam Avenue between 72nd and 73rd Streets, has been spotted at 58th and Broadway.
Farinella’s previous UWS location, at 267 Amsterdam Ave, is now home to ramen spot Kitakata Ramen Ban Nai (as well as its offshoot, Curry Mania).
Farinella’s thin crust, rectangular pizzas are made by hand and baked in an Italian stone oven. If you’re getting a pie (or “pala”), they come in lengths of 2 and 4 feet.
