There’s pizza, and then there’s a slice of Cheese Board pizza with that tiny tub of ridiculously addictive cilantro-jalapeno green sauce. A classic Gourmet Ghetto fixture where throngs of people hang out amidst its storefront seating, this pizzeria from the worker-owned The Cheese Board Collective famously dishes up its meatless pie of the day, salad of the day and other baked goods. Live acoustic music often streams through its large open window to add to the social, casual and friendly neighborhood atmosphere.
