How was LaBan’s meal? “While there were several tasty dishes, inconsistent execution was especially problematic with big-ticket entrees running from the mid-$20s on up,” he writes.

In fact, he says North Wayne Avenue’s other new pizza restaurant, Vecchia Pizza Napoletana, “handily won Round One of the Wayne Pizza Throwdown.”
