Imagine waking up to a slice of pizza so good, you swear you're in New York. Well, dream no more because Aglio Pizzeria and Deli is making it a reality. This place is not your run-of-the-mill pizza joint. It's a flavor journey straight to the heart of Manhattan, minus the airfare.

The brains behind this culinary delight? The dynamite team of Nirvaan Thacker, Jai Sarvaiya, Anuj Solanki, and Advait Agnihotri. These guys, who also brought us the Lebanese sensation Za'atar, decided during the 2020 lockdown that Mumbai needed a pizza revolution. And boy, did they deliver! Starting as Mozza, they quickly became a hit, expanding their cheesy goodness from Mumbai to Pune.

What sets Aglio apart? It's all in the name – garlic butter bliss on every pizza and sandwich, paired with a kick of signature garlic chilli oil. They've got this cheese blend that's just... chef's kiss. And they're all about inclusivity, with Jain and Vegan options that don't skimp on taste. Freshly baked pizza bases that are light, crunchy, and just right.

Their deli sauces? Homemade and fresh. It's like you can taste every single component singing in harmony. They've even thought about the packaging, giving you the full pizzeria and deli vibe in your pajamas.

Chef Nirvaan Thacker spills the beans, "We're all about bringing that authentic New York Style pizza & deli experience to Mumbai & Pune. We're using the best ingredients out there to keep dishing out slices of joy."

And oh, the variety! Classics like 'Little Flame' or the gourmet 'Manhattan,' every bite's a journey. Their sandwiches and baguettes? Out of this world. And if you're feeling creative, dive into their custom pizza options – a game-changer.

Aglio's not just a pizzeria; it's a love letter to pizza aficionados. It's about enjoying those big city flavors without stepping out of your comfort zone. So, next time you're craving a slice of the Big Apple, you know where to go.
