Pizza's so good that it couldn't simply be held to just five items. This is New York-style pizza at its finest in South Florida. If you're really ready to aim for the sky, you can reach for a full 23-inch jumbo size pizza. You can also hit up Steve's for a nice lamb gyro. But, if you are going to get some pies from Steve's, don't get it delivered, head to the restaurant for a fun dining experience.
