I came to try out this pizza because my son, pizza was really good but great. The crust wasn't my favorite, the sauce and cheese was good. I took some home and my wife liked it very much so we'll definitely come back to try the rest of the pies. Apollonia's is better in my opinion

I decided to stop by Prime Pizza to sample some pizza. We ordered a full sausage pizza to take home, and sampled the following slices. Spicy square pepperoni, four cheese, and Sicilian. The spicy square pepperoni was delicious. Not too spicy, just the right amount. The crust was crispy and not dry. The sauce and cheese evenly melted, and the pepperoni was delicious. The square Sicilian was by far the best tasting. The mixture of cheese, pesto, and tomato sauce was an explosion of flavor in the mouth. The white slice was overcooked and will not be ordered next time, it was really dry. The hot sausage pizza was steaming from the box so we had to try it there. Delicious. Cheese, sauce, and sausage all yummy, but I wished they had added more sausage. Don't skimp on the sausage! Total with two drinks, $58.44. We will be back to sample other slices and the wings.

Service was excellent. However the pepperoni pizza was quite hard. Grinded against the roof of my mouth while eating, resulting in mild pain and tore off a layer of the roof of my mouth.

This is the best pizza I’ve ever had. Even delivered it’s still perfect. I can’t say enough good things. And the ranch? Otherworldly. My favorite pizza ever like even better than the stuff in Italy. 10/10 I love you guys

Dissatisfied New Yorker here! The worst pie ever, no cheese to be found, anemic sauce, and premium price. Not going back.

Tried this place out twice same both times. Place looks fun and exciting. Although staff is slow to help. Pizza has minimal toppings, cheese, and sauce. Although the bread is very good. By the slice looks like they are not seeing good turn around. There is plenty of parking which is great. Probably will not return due to better options around.
The absolute best crew at my favorite pizza stop. I'm a student at SMC and I can say that everyone that works here is the nicest and provides the best customer service. They all genuinely seem to like each other and don't mind how busy it gets here at lunch or dinner. They are so sweet to me ALWAYS. Today especially though. I'm sad I'm transferring to a different school soon.
The socialism pizza is great. The cheese here is exceptional. I'm really going to miss coming here!

So, first off, NY style is not my favorite, I prefer a thicker crust with a chewy outside ring, and a good unhealthy blanket of cheese and sauce. In my area, that describes Fat Tomato in MdR, and especially Johnnie's, on the other side of Lincoln. My rating is based on the NY style, because if you put that on the same scale as wood-fired artisan pizzas, it wouldn't be fair, that's almost a different food group.
For some, NY is everything to them, and I'm sure you've seen the Evil Corp tube guy's reviews, he downgrades any pizza that isn't NY. So-called Neapolitan style starts out at an automatic 6.8, he would rate a mediocre NY over an accomplished pizza of another type, which is silly in my view. He loved Prime, but even setting my preferences aside (I won't commit the same crime), I can't agree.
First off, the crust ring was larger and more puffed up than I'm used to seeing on NY style, but still crunchy. That's not a bad thing in my book, and in practice, a lot of crusts seem to fit the category. I thought the crust was the best part.
The rest, not so much. It was oily on the surface, and apparently with so little cheese, the sauce carried the predominant color. I'm not use to seeing orange pizzas. There were also way too many mushrooms, which I realize is viewed as a sin by NY fanciers anyway, so never mind.
It did taste good, no problem there, and I liked the crust very much. So I guess I'll give it four stars, but in my universe, the kind of pizza I prefer, it would be be a three.
Oddly enough, the nearby pizza the famous YT reviewer hated was Upper Crust, which has a flat, crispy crust ring I most associate with NY style. It also looks better imho, and I like the taste (Prime is on the left in the photo, UC right). The problem is their very thin crust makes the pizza droopy, even though the bottom is well browned, which was intolerable to the YT reviewer. I agree UC is too floppy, they probably go too thin, but I much preferred that pizza to this. Sorry to Prime fanciers, that's my call.
Finally, there's that subject we don't talk about, refer pizza. When you buy a large, never mind two, some of it is going to end up in the fridge, and a cold pizza breakfast can be sublime. Oh sure, you can try heating it up, but even with a convection oven it's hit and miss. The super thin Upper Crust was one of the best refer pizzas I've ever had, the cheese solidified and cured the droop, and the crust ring even retained some crunch, great. Unfortunately, the Prime crust edge seized up and turned into leather, not that I found those browned mushrooms embedded in cold orange goo all that appetizing anyway. The leftover slices went into the trash chute, a sad end for any pizza.
