Al's New York Cafe serves authentic New York-style pizza that rivals those found in Manhattan and Brooklyn. The pizzeria's atmosphere is reminiscent of iconic East Coast eateries, complete with freshly baked pizzas and enormous, thin-crust pies. The pizza itself boasts a perfectly thin and crispy crust with just the right amount of chewiness. Al's is where one goes when craving that perfect slice of New York-style pizza, with options like the NYC Special, piled high with sausage and pepperoni. The deli sandwiches are also a standout, especially the classic pastrami, which is piled so high that diners may wonder how to take the first bite.
With friendly staff and incredible service, Al's has a loyal following. Many reviews highlight the attentive and kind service, noting that the food is incredible and portions are generous. Customers appreciate that pizza is available by the slice, making it a great spot for a quick fix. This place is a must-visit for anyone looking for a genuine New York pizza experience, and it’s clear why Al's New York Cafe is regarded as one of Costa Mesa's true hidden gems.
