Taormina Pizzeria & Restaurant is a solid spot serving classic New York-style pizza and Italian favorites. Established in 1981, this family-owned and operated restaurant has been a staple in Paterson, rated as one of the best pizzerias in the area. The pizza is unique, with a slightly thicker crust, but it all comes together to create a delicious pie with nice, tasty sauce and just the right amount of cheese. The crust has great chew, and a satisfying "doughiness" with a wonderfully crisp underside. Their crust also provides more structure to accommodate a generous serving of mozzarella. The sauce tasted so fresh, tomato-y, and deliciously well balanced, with some sweetness to counter the acidity. The restaurant also offers other Italian favorites, including a popular chicken dinner special with penne, broccoli, and spinach. Some call the sauce sweet, others say it is amazing. They also offer Sicilian Pies with half chicken and spinach. The staff is warm and welcoming, providing excellent hospitality. They have reasonable prices. For kids, they offer chicken fingers and fries. Whether you're in the mood for a classic cheese pie or a hearty Italian meal, Taormina's is a great choice.
