I'm not from The City, so not a pizza expert. That was a delicious slice. Forget about it!
This is honestly up there with some of my favorite pizza spots around Tucson. If you want a gigantic slice of New York style pizza that will fill you up this is the place to go. The appetizers are also incredibly good! I personally recommend the pepperoni and cheese mozzarella sticks. They're basically pizza chimichongas and they're incredibly delicious. The restraint also has this nice almost sports bar vibe but without being too loud.

Cute NY themed pizza place. What follows is from a born and raised NY who has been seeking out a real NY style slice. First, our server was very nice and attentive. The atmosphere is cute- NYPD blue on the cement breaks in the parking blocks is very on brand.
I had heard and seen some reviews that also mentioned they had sicilian, but they had no idea what I was talking about and it was not on the menu.
I ordered mushroom and the Italian sausage (from the premium toppings- I prefer bulk Italian on pizza, but the very sweet woman behind the counter said it was breakfast sausage? I am assuming she was wrong but did not want to take a chance. So here is the item by item review and the overall impressions.
Italian sliced sausage: nice fennel flavor which i find missing from most of the Italian sausage in Tucson. Very tasty.
Mushrooms: sliced thin and very fresh.
Sauce: Excellent flavor. One of the best I’ve had since coming to Tucson. Just too much of it on the pizza making it soggy
Cheese: generous, but no real mozzarella flavor
Crust: darn it. I was hopeful, but could see when it came out that it was too thick. The color was super light and pulling the slice from the pan, I could immediately see it floppy, not crispy and underbaked. It had some potential flavor-wise.
Overall: I will take the baking as a potential off night. I saw other slices go by and the crust looked better, so maybe mine was just rushed. The sauce and the sausage was good enough that i could even overlook the mozerrela issues and give it another try. I’ll update this review when I do!

The bread on their Italian subs changed. It is not the same. The pizza is still fantastic and so is the batman bread. Only wish the bread on the subs went back to the original.

Everytime I come to Tucson from Colorado, I come have pizza at NYPD. Not afraid to say, might be the best I ever had!

I enjoyed my lunch at this establishment.
Building exterior and lot were clean and in good condition. I wasn't panhandled here.
Warmly greeted by a friendly highly enthusiastic staff upon entry. Ordering was simple and straight forward. The crowd was mixed and while busy it wasn't overly crowded allowing ample opportunity to sit.
My food arrived at warp speed. I found it hot, fresh and delicious.
Over all I had a delicious meal at a reasonable price with good service.
Definitely a place worth your time and money.

The crust is thin and kind of New York style, and the sauce tastes good, but the cheese really misses the mark and only works if you eat it fast. The garlic cheese knots were basically a bowl of melted cheese that clumped together, and regular garlic bread would have been a better choice.

Excellent NY style pizza! It made my husband and father-in-law, originally from NJ, very happy. We will definitely come here again the next time we are in Tucson.

Really good, it's a big slice but kinda expensive for a slice.
Once it came out I understood the price better.
