From the bread all the way to the pasta, everything was fresh and tasty and so filling! We had to take half of all of our meals home. This location really is top notch.“

“I just discovered No.1 NY Pizza after 2 years of looking for real NY pizza. Hands down the best pizza in the area. The sauce has just the right amount of sweetness and you can snap the crust. I will be back to try the rest of the menu but based on the pizza and delicious Greek salad I’m sure I won’t be disappointed.“

Kim had Alfredo with chicken which she said was very good. We both had salads as sides, mine with one of the best Blue Cheese dressings I have ever had in a restaurant! My wife had Ranch and said it was delicious. We topped off the evening by splitting a Tiramisu that was wonderful! Most certainly going back again!!“

“Dare I say, the best pizza in Ocala?
I’ve had this pizza before, but something has definitely changed…in the best way. We ordered the Margherita, and the cheese-to-sauce-to-crunchy-crust ratio was absolute perfection. Whatever they’re doing now, it’s working. Service was quick and professional and the restaurant was spotless. We’ll definitely be back!“
