You gotta love these guys. Big talkers, big personalities, big slices. I happened to walk in near closing time, so the slice selection was limited. There was one cheese slice left, and it became mine. In talking with Pino, he asked me to come back earlier in the day next time so I could sample a larger selection. So while enjoying my slice, I saw him throw in another pie and thought that was odd because they were closing and trying to sell off what they had left. Come to find out, it was for me. When it was done, I hear Pino calling from behind the counter for me to come up. He gave me a slice for free. He wouldn’t take payment. So I told him fine, I’ll buy two more for the road. Him and his son were very grateful (and loud and boisterous which truthfully was awesome). I gave the slices away to a woman on the street, and Pino’s is now my favorite pizza shop in St Paul. The pizza was superb, and the owner was a joy.
