The Good Pie, Bringing Neapolitan-Style Pizza to St. Louis

St. Louis Eats and Drinks St. Louis food writers Joe and Ann Pollack (regulars here on the site may know Ann as "Lemons") visit a recently opened Neapolitan-style pizzeria in the Gateway City. It's called The Good Pie, and here's what they have to say about it: The pizzas themselves are 12 inches in diameter, available in some simple options, again in the style of Naples.
