The meats pizza, the sausage/onions/peppers bread, the meatball calzone. Man, they do all excellent things. It makes me happy to have this little neighborhood place doing classic excellence in their work. Integrity and excellence and friendly people.

Just left this restaurant for the first time. Some of our clients from New York kept going on about how good pizza was up there so I started looking for the most authentic New York Pizza in new orleans. Well, I found it. The place is talked off in a strip mall off of esplanade. I accidentally passed it up the first time. Once inside, the place definitely gives an authentic New York Pizza vibe. The gentleman at the register said they have been there for 25 years. He's from a particular area called the bronx. Our clients are from brooklyn, but it's all the same when it comes to pizza. They all talk about the water and how it affects the crust. I can say, without a doubt, this pizza had some of the best crust of any I've tried before and I've eaten Pizza at well over 100 different restaurants. I decided to get a modified Supreme today. Roasted garlic instead of green peppers. They have sizes ranging from mini to large. A small was more than enough to fill me up and have a few slices to take home. Pizza did not take long to cook. Absolutely delicious from the first bite. It really did feel like you were talked away from New Orleans while you were in there. Terrific owner. Very informative. Delicious pizza. No complaints whatsoever. Highly recommend. I'll definitely be back.

Definitely some great pizza going on here. Basil makes some of the best pizza in Jefferson Parish if not the best, and having lived in New York for over 30 years I think I know what I'm talking about. L ots of choices and customizations available and sadly a little known spot but it should really get the accolades it deserves for the quality pies he makes. He knows what he's talking about visits New York frequently and this is a great spot for pizza, calzones and yes stromboli 'stuffed bread'! He's genuinely nice and knowledgeable character and will talk to you at length about what makes a good pizza!
*Picturd is the standard vegetarian option with fresh tomatoes mushrooms, onion, red and green bell peppers

This is the best pizza spot in town, hands down! If you ever get the chance to go inside to pick up your pizza, take a look at all the kids' drawings of their ideal pizzas! They're so cute and creative. The owner is so friendly and has a lot of pride in his Puzza Shoppe.

This place is a little gem! The pizza has such an incredible flavor. We got the personal minis. Hubby got supreme and I got the basil pesto Margarita pizzas. The crust is so flavorful and chef said he makes his own pesto sauce. Definitely tastes like it’s made with love! Will most certainly be coming back! ☺️❤️
