50 Best Pizza Restaurants near Arverne

“👍😎 "A great slice of pizza!" - Editor I was doing a story on Coastal Flooding in NYC... 'Sandy' 10 years later ...'Hurricane Ida' & 'Ian'... and talked to Surfers on the Beach that surfed 'Ian' (Beach 67) just recently. 'Beach 67' is 'the spot' for surfing in NYC. I was sooo happy I got these interviews and went and got a slice of pizza at 'Boardwalk Pizza' before I hopped back on the Train (the 'Beach 67' stop on the 'A Train'), right there behind a beautiful and impressive strip of storefronts facing the Ocean (which 'Boardwalk Pizza' is a part of). The slice was great... and I asked if anyone was around for 'Hurricane Sandy' (no luck) ...so I went outside to enjoy the air while eating. There is 'great outdoor space' attached to 'Boardwalk Pizza' (and the other storefronts there). It is all brand new ...the neighborhood of 'Arverne' as well (in the Rockaways, Queens)... right at the water. It is like a 'Picturesque Beach Town' and this Pizzeria is a representation of it. I actually met the owner (Giuseppe) he is from Italy (standing in one of the photos at the Entrance), he likes it there at 'Arverne' so much he bought the Pizzeria and serves a 'More European' style of food, he says. The Pizzeria was amply patronized when I went in... mid October (half full) ...the 'Summer Season' over (when he does very well he says) ...with February being slowest. He has a full menu of Pasta, Chicken (and various meat) Dishes... 'Vegan Options' as well. It is very clean (which was nice to be in), the people are 'laid back' there too (I like that). Giuseppe likes it so much he travels every day from Manhattan (he added) and is considering a place in the new units being built across the street (either apartment or condo/co-op). It is an amazing development going on through the whole area of 'Arverne' with 2,000 more units and a school being added... [There was nothing before 'Hurricane Sandy' (he says)] ...it seems 'Arverne' (the name of the Neighborhood) is 'on the way up' (even 'more up' than its current state) along with 'Boardwalk Pizzeria.'

“Amazing vibes at Saucey! 🍕✨ Fresh ingredients, fun build-your-own pizzas, and killer cocktails. Perfect spot to chill with friends and enjoy great times. Can’t wait to be back! 🎉🍸“

“Had a pasta and pizza and they were both amazing. We are from Australia and found it hard to find a good restaurant in the Marina bay sands area and this did not disappoint. 5 stars“

“In a city of delicious pizza, this pizza is DELICIOUS. Shared some apps and pies, cleaned our plates. Only regret not leaving room for dessert. Had a res for around 6 on a Saturday, they’re definitely popping around that time. Good atmosphere, not too loud, friendly service.“

“the place is phenomenal the pizza is outstanding you get treated with love like family once you walk through those doors the cocktails are creative and delicious Caesar salad oh my God but the pizza unbelievable I recommend this place to the world🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕“

“Went there with family. Service was fast and they let us sit corner table which I asked for the kids. I liked the employees being nice and friendly. They keep the table clean, refilled our drinks. Food was amazing as always. Keep up with good work guys…“

“I’ll give 5 stars because I want them to stay in business !!!! But they need to change something.
*****IT USED TO BE 5 STARS*****, I used to go at night all the time when the dude that didn’t speak English worked there. But now for the last few months, he’s gone, and the pizza was NOT GOOD the last 3 times I went over the last couple months. Only at night I have eaten here. So i couldn’t tell you about the daytime.

In restaurant business, things need to be consistent, too bad no restaurants are really like this. Because people change up all the time. One little thing can change A LOT in food prep/cooking. I know. I’ve been in restaurant business for 10+ years… hope you guys can fix whatever was wrong with the pizza. I miss it lol“

“Visiting from Pennsylvania and I used to work in the area, I haven’t had good Pizza in a REALLY LONG TIME“

“Loved it here! Just stopped in at the spur of the moment and I am so glad I did! Felt like I was in a Manhattan Bar! Eva the bartender was great and so was the rest of the staff. Felt like I was with friends.“

“Got the VCR 16 pie. The Cesar salad with chicken cutlet and parm garlic bread sticks. Pizza was definitely above average a smash between old world and modern style. Thin crust but not to thin. Bread sticks were classic the side garlic butter sauce is a nice complement.

The Cesar salad is as advertised incredible. 100% recommend. Dressing and cheese is perfect.
On 4 stars for service because they didnt have to go utensils at all, even when asked.
Atmosphere seemed pretty good though I did take out.“

“The best restaurant in the area ... food, service, drinks, and ambience!!!“

“Only take out to go. Pick up . Small space. The food is good , I got the garlic parmesan wings. Wings were small but good. Would have liked bigger portions for the price they charged.

Parking: No parking lot , only street.

Wheelchair accessibility: Big entrance so you can go in , in a wheelchair.“

“Best Pizza Ever!!! Went today for the 1st time and was amazed. Must try!! I ate there…was so good, I had to get a few slices to go.“

“The BEST Sicilian square sourdough pizza on the planet 🌎 their sauce is organic and phenomenal, the cheese is wonderful, olives and if you feel like it Add some sausage, and the yummiest pecorino Romano shreds just topped it off. The crispiest crust and So incredibly digestible, because it’s sourdough. Sourdough is fermented and your gut loves fermented food… Love their little gem lettuce salad with their homemade dressing. Very simple here I think we ordered 3 square pies and of course brought some home The Sicilian squares heats up beautifully Just love OPS on Himrod Bushwick Brooklyn!!!! We brought our son who lives in Louisville and this time brought our daughter and boyfriend who live in San Diego and their rock star Pal who is on a tour with THE WHO. All give the square pizza A+ Excellent! The staff is warm and friendly!!!“

“Ordered for the first time last night, they were super accommodating since we called at 8:45 and they close at 9:00…. They made us 5 pies and I’m was so appreciative. They were so nice and even recommended one which I absolutely loved (with potatoes!) we can’t wait to go back but to eat there so we get the Pizza Hut out of the oven! Amazing owners and such a delight to have in valley steam!! The owner explained the ingredients and concept to my husband and his friend. They can’t back telling us so about it!“

“When Cento Uno Pizzeria opened up in my neighborhood, I was beyond ecstatic. The food is amazing and fresh (the white slice is my favorite), and the owner is extremely friendly and conversational. There’s a nice atmosphere and upbeat music always playing. I’ve been going there every week for over a year now, and will continue forever. 100/10 recommend!!!“

“I went there today right before closing cause I was starving I ordered one slice and she gave me 4 slices and some cookies man the best blessing ever I swear I was shocked , I will definitely be back and the phone was good great customer service .“

“Great service and Pizza to die for. My favorite spot for Queens“

“Walked in with my co workers after working in the area and decided to check it out. Right when you walk in you know your at a good pizza spot and Eddie is the man…very nice guy and everythings made fresh no pies just sitting around for hours…perfect crispy crust and you cant beat the lunch special!“

“I was in town for a day and didn’t realize there was a manhattan location but wanted to try them so bad I travelled 40 mins to Brooklyn and it was SO WORTH IT! They even gave me an extra slice 🥹 I did the sweet Thai chili oxtail and the brown stew oxtail pizza and it was so good even the crust was delicious on its own! I see why this place went viral now! I wish we had one in Cleveland but then again maybe not cause I’d gain 40lbs eating this weekly 😍 music was bumping and great selection, the staff was so chill and kind and didn’t make me feel like a tourist 🤣 loved the vibes here. Highly recommend if you’re in the nyc area to try this at least once before you go!“

“This restaurant is a very clean friendly neighborhood place, where everyone feels welcome and the food is good and the prices are reasonable.“

“This place is incredible the pizza is so good and the garlic knots are also good. This place is clean and delicious. Also they have this good deal that when you buy 2 slices of pizza you get water or a canned drink. You won’t be disappointed! The pizza is kind of cheap but it is the best pizza in nyc!I love this place!“

“The service is phenomenal with the one of a kind staff. The server was great with the kids, and the food was delicious. 5+ stars.“

“Pretty cool place. Everyone is really nice there as well.“

“My husband and I have been going to Austin Street Pizza for years. We absolutely love everything about this place! One special thing - we love their rock music playlist. It would be really cool if they can also add Forest Hills rock bands that fit the style, like the band Spread Eagle.“

“This is pizza to drive miles for!! 😋“

“The Best Pizza and Hero’s!! 👍🏻👍🏻“

“I came in for a meeting and the atmosphere was so calm that me and the people I was meeting with were able to get everything done. The food was a plus since the food here is very good. We got the margarita pie and chicken tikka pie. Both were very good with their signature sauce. 10/10 must come again.“

“Best Italian food & pizza in Brooklyn“

“Great authentic New York style pizza with plenty of options to choose from. Their chicken masala, Buffalo chicken, and BBQ pizza are all delicious. You can also get dough for $2-$3 from them if you are feeling adventurous and want to make your own pizza.“

“Food was great! And bonus, the husband/wife team at Concrete were so welcoming and made you feel like they had you over for dinner.“

“This Place not only has amazing pizza & food,It’s the old school Mom & Pop atmosphere that doesn’t exist anymore. Family ran to the point you feel like family.. It’s A Must!!!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ **John's Pizza in Elmhurst, Queens is the REAL DEAL.** If you want authentic New York pizza, stop what you're doing and go here. The crust is thin — and I mean *perfectly* thin, the way it's supposed to be. The sauce is delicious, the cheese is real, and every bite reminds you why NYC pizza is in a class of its own. But what truly blew me away was meeting **Susan**, the owner. Her parents opened this pizzeria back in the **1960s**, and she is still there, carrying on that legacy with so much pride and love. I watched her make my pizza right in front of me — this is a woman who genuinely cares about what she puts out. That kind of dedication is rare. We talked for a while about how much the neighborhood has changed over the years, and she still works hard to keep her prices as low as possible for the community. That says everything about who she is. Susan, you are a gem. Queens is lucky to have you. 🍕 I'm already planning my next visit — every time I'm in the area, I'm stopping by. Highest recommendation possible. Don't sleep on John's Pizza!“

“Absofreakinlutely! Eh yo fuhgeddaboudit!“

“La Pizzeria & Bagel in Valley Stream is a fantastic neighborhood spot! Their bagels are fresh and perfectly bakek. The pizza is always tasty, and they also serve excellent pasta dishes and hearty, flavorful soups that are perfect for a cozy meal. The variety on the menu means there’s something for everyone. The staff is friendly, and service is consistently fast and welcoming. A great go-to for breakfast, lunch, or dinner!“

“Let me tell you something, I have a very VERY high standard when it comes to NY pizza…This place delivers every time. The slices are amazing. Everything they serve is delicious AND the customer service is excellent. You’re not going to find a better slice in the area.“

“One of my favorite places in the city for some proper Italian pizza pie. A nice neopolitan style thin crust, with fresh mozzarella and delicious marinara sauce. The atmosphere and service are excellent and this place has just gotten busier since it opened its doors a few years ago. It's in my neighborhood and go in for negroni sbagliato and pizza fix.“

“great selection. huge slices. yummy pizza. marinara is top notch“

“Great slice and service - I definitely recommend!“

“There pizza is so yummy. my son and daughter love it very much.“

“The food choices are amazing. I appreciated having the help of an ambassador who just happened to be at the location. This is my second time visiting Wonder, and I plan to return. I strongly recommend that you come and try these delicious menus!“

“Honestly, this place is so slept on... Krave It has the best pizza in Bayside— by a LANDSLIDE. I love that they use unbromated flour and I appreciate that every piece (even the specialty slices with many heavy toppings) has great structure, no flop. Thin & crispy crust, great ratio of sauce and cheese. I also love how clean the restaurant is. They have some incredible specialty slices that I never knew I needed in my life until I tried them! Especially the “Desi Boy” slice and the “white truffle chicken cutlet” slice. I also have to mention their vodka slice with sesame crust 🤤 Everything in this place is high quality, even their regular slices. Their sandwiches are pretty incredible too, and you can tell that the bread is fresh made in house— you don’t feel bloated or overly stuffed after eating them! The owner is super friendly and even gave us a couple extra slices to try to complete our “pie” when we had already ordered a small variety of slices. The staff are all very friendly and it feels very comfortable and less stuffy than some of the other pizzerias in the area. Happy to give this place my business. Give them a try, you will be back for more!“

“Taking a stroll around the neighborhood and my eyes locked on the sign with the word “apizza”. Before I knew it, my insatiable love for great food and beer led me on to a rooftop bar enjoying such! I got a white apizza and a cider. I’d love to post a picture of but, at the smell and sight of such immaculate apizza all that remains is a tray with parchment paper and crumbs. This made for a great spontaneous lunch, I’ll definitely be coming back again. Great spot great vibe. Do yourself a favor and spend your money here! 11/10“

“AMAZING!! Could very well be the BEST tasting pizza in Long Island. The staff is great, place is clean and the pizza is TOP of the TOP!“

“Stopped in for dinner and tried a little bit of everything (various pizzas, sandwiches, garlic knots, desserts) - it was all absolutely fantastic! Service was top notch as well � 10/10“

“Large gluten free menu. Lasagna was delicious, and they seem to try to keep the gluten free food as safe as possible.“

“I was here in Dec 28 for my daughter bday n they made it so special they sing happy bday to my daughter the pizza was so good I recommended“

“Just picked up 2 hot specials of The day. Portions are large, taste is on point! Thank you“

“Food is delicious and the staff is excellent. I live in Vegas and every year when I come back to NY I always eat at Nick's!!“

“Perfect slice with the perfect view!
I love this Rockaway Beach pizza spot. The pizza itself was fantastic - generous they are with the toppings, and that cheese pull was absolutely divine. The crust had the perfect balance of crispy and chewy, and the sauce had just the right amount of tang. I am satisfied after a day in the sun!“
