DEBLASIO CAN EAT AGAIN: Beloved NYC Pizza Joint Reopens After Settling Tax Bill

A top-rated New York City pizza restaurant has reopened two days after it was shuttered by state officials over unpaid taxes.

The New York Post reports that Brooklyn�s Di Fara Pizza reopened Thursday after its owners worked out a payment plan to settle a $167,000 tax bill.

Di Fara opened in 1965 and has long been a favorite with New Yorkers and out-of-town visitors.

Mayor Bill de Blasio tweeted Thursday that he was glad �the best slice in town� would be around �for years to come.� The Democratic mayor had tweeted Wednesday that he wanted to help resolve Di Fara�s tax situation.

Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo said on TV station NY1 that the resolution of the restaurant�s tax dispute is �the perfect outcome from everyone�s point of view.�
