L&B has been serving signature Sicilian square pies, Spumoni (Italian ice cream), and other signature dishes since 1939. Favorite among locals and tourists, the place has a three-in-one setup: an ice cream parlor, a casual restaurant, and a pizzeria. They employ a unique pizza-making process with upside-down crust and cheese on top of it. The crust is slightly undercooked in the middle adding a soft and chewy taste to it. The famed outdoor patio is charming and vibrant, especially in the summer.
