Excellent pizza by the slice, it is like stepping 50 years back in time inside. Family run

A solid pizza stop. I was looking for something inexpensive and on the way from our subway stop to the NY Botanical Garden. I saw Pugsley's pizza on the map and decided to give it a go. It was $11 for two slices of pizza and a diet snapple which worked for what we needed. We ordered, paid, and they brought our food out to us at our table. We got a penne slice and a cheese slice. I wish they had some sort of veggie slice but that's okay. The penne slice was my favorite but that was probably because I had never had anything like it. Pasta on pizza? Revolutionary. Seems like a cool spot especially cause it's close to the college. Kinda eclectic art on the walls and something to look and talk about.

I have a Margherita pizza and a breaded chicken ricotta calzone, both delicious. I like the quality of the cheese, which is not the cheapest and greasy from most of the places. If you like spicy, ask for the hot oily peppers, it is really good.

There is no place on earth like pugsley pizza. While it serves the primary function of a Fordham hangout, anyone would be well served to come here and try those absolutely stupendous chicken rolls. If you don't eat meat you should still stick your head in here to meet the Natale family, especially Sal, who has a poet soul and won't hesitate to share it. This pizzeria is an expression of his joie de vivre. It's one of my favorite spots on earth.

The best pizza in the Bronx, great sandwiches and calzones too! Sal is an absolute legend, great guy, and a good supporter of Fordham. Great atmosphere, don't forget to leave a tip so they can bang the gong.

Stopped by for a very quick lunch after a tour at Fordham University. The owners were very friendly and care so much about this community.

Great place! My personal favorite is the penne vodka pizza. Owners and staff are so friendly I absolutely love coming here. Inside there is limited seating but they also have a patio. The decor inside is super sick too. This is a very popular spot for fordham kids as it is practically on-campus lol so be aware of that if coming here late at night, gets crowded.

Stopped by after reading many great reviews on this casual pizza spot. A lot of reviews posted pictures of the Love Pie which is an adorable 10" heart shaped pie. We ordered the garlic bread with mozzarella that came with a side of sauce for dipping. The staff was very accommodating and allowed us to order each personal pie with two different toppings. Overall very solid food, would recommend!

I came here because of the reviews. He gets his reviews from tourists and influencers who bring them physically there. I really love the atmosphere. I think it's a fun place and the owner is really cool but he needs to get his head out of his ass and put some quality ingredients in there and should be ashamed of himself with those garlic knots since he really is an Italian those pizza slices have no flavor.. the garlic knots aren't even garlic knots their butter rolls. If you have it with his concoction, it's some cheap version of Parmesan powder mix with garlic powder, which is a chalky taste in your mouth in my opinion if he changes these things I will change my review
