Excellent pizza in a fun part of the city. Great service, great location. It's a regular stop when I'm in the area.
The food was amazing. Pizza was fresh and delicious. The garlic knots are definite worth it. Great atmosphere and service. 10/10 food place
Sooooo good I came here two out of three nights on my trip to NYC! First night was a slice each of margherita and spinach with pesto. Second night I squeezed in right at closing time so pickings were slim and I went again with the margherita and they threw in a slice of Detroit-style at no extra charge. They must get a lot of traffic coming through because everything looks and tastes fresh even later into the evening. The crust is that perfect balance of chewy and crunchy, and the toppings cover all the way to within a half-inch of the edge of the crust. Will definitely be back on my next visit to the city.
Great slice of regular cheese and Sicilian cheese (more like thick crust), and awesome mozzarella cheese sticks (cold marinara). Took care of our hunger after a Broadway show tonight!
A solid four stars. It's not New Haven Pizza and it's not the greatest New York pizza but it's a solid four. Hole in the wall ish. If you don't order a whole pizza or custom pizza, then you choose a slice from the display case and they warm up in their ovens for a few minutes before you eat. The ovens won't make the cheese bubble and pop and sear the top of your mouth but they warm them up. The decor is pizza shop. Couple of tables and chairs. A bathroom but didn't dare to peek in. Plasticware and paper plates. Not a place for a date but a place to go when you're hungry and need a bite. Prices are sadly New York 2025. Ten bucks for a slice of margarita and a soda. Ten years ago I'd have said fuggedaboutit but now I just glumly tap my credit card and moan about the days of dollar slices.
Just got in. Exhausted, unfamiliar with the area and starving. The hotel concierge recommends this place. Just what we needed. We aren't in the mood to be picky which turned out to be a huge bonus for our visit. It's Xmas week, the city is packed and crazy. We walk right in and get in a medium size line that moves nonstop. There's a huge selection of familiar and unique slices right before your eyes. The guys behind the counter are welcoming and patient thankfully. Everyone picks a couple of slices that intrigue them and order of mozzarella sticks and some drinks. We grab some seats and before we know it they're calling us for the appetizer. Finishing the appetizer and the slices are ready. OMG do they hit the spot. So hot and tasty, filling and satisfying. We're in and out in about a half hour, full and very happy.
We went to a Rockefeller event yesterday. It was so crowded we could barely walk through the avenues. We needed something to eat that was quick, cheap and had a sit down area. We stopped in as they were closing down and ordered from the station were everything they had was available. The guys there are nice, fast and nice to look at too. That helps lol. We choose the calamari slice and the bacon vodka slice. A beef patty with cheese. We split everything. The calamari slice was different but in a good way. Sweet and savory and I never thought sweet would work with calamari but boom there it was. Very good. The dough is thin and crispy too just like I like it. The bacon vodka slice was top tier for me. Delicious, smokey and savory as well. Minimal but a beautiful simplicity. The beef patty with cheese was standard pizza shop item. They handed me my slices and brought my beef patty to my table when cooked. Overall it was good. I'd definitely grab those 2 slices again.
This was a solid spot for evening pizza. It was super close to our hotel and the guys behind the counter were friendly and quick with it. We got 3 slices -- mushroom, pepperoni, and white. The mushroom was ok, but the other 2 slices were great. A classic NYC slice -- thin crust, lots of cheese and flavor.
I came in with my family of 7 on a Sunday afternoon. The restaurant was very busy. The pizza was hot and delicious. It was some of the best pizza we have ever had and it was decently priced. Staff was friendly and helpful. We would recommend and return in the future.
By far our favorite pizza spot when in time square Pizza had so many options, hot, crispy and good topping ratio Service was quick and easy as expected Although there was construction going on, nothing special about decor or environment just a simply good spot for fast and delicious pizza
