I work at a company that has 3 locations in the city but primarily, I'm in SOHO where all the famous pizza shops are and this spot is the best slice in Queens, or even the city, by far. Price-wise, obviously much cheaper and comparably one of the best slices in NYC. I'ma pizza snob and this place defines a NYC slice and sicilian!

not so much a review but want to apologize to any future patrons and customers.. if they are out of sausage or chicken rolls.. it was probably me that cleared it out cuz I buy out everything they have as soon as see it's available.. I keep them in my freezer for future meals and have even taken a frozen sausage roll with me on a backpacking trip to perfectly thaw out when I get to my site and heat up on a campfire to add a smoky taste.. gotdam delicious

Best pizza in Queens. Same owners for over 60 years. I went as a kid and was so surprised to see the same lady making the pizza in her 80's. God bless.

All time favorite pizzeria. I’ve been coming here since I started walking. Family run business (mom and daughter). The place has not changed since I was 4. I enjoy the crispy thin crust, sweet and tangy sauce, and perfect amount of cheese. Best pizza in the world

The ordering process was slightly awkward in that the toppings we wanted were partly unavailable, but which ones were unavailable were unknown until we asked for it (so we had to kind of go down the list of toppings one by one).
Otherwise, the pizza was reasonably good, the staff is friendly, and the dining area is nicely kept and cute/charming.

Need to update their hours on google . It’s a Sunday and they are closed at 6 pm and it says on google they close at 8 drove all the way from Jersey just for it to be closed. Please update your business hours so people don’t come and waste their time. Call before you come here to see if it’s open or closed!!!!

I saw them on TikTok! And I wanted to try it out. Great place, great pizza. I’ll be back. I was nervous to meet them but next time I’ll say hi. I wanted to try the pizza first and not cause a scene since they were really busy. Thanks for the great pizza.
Good quality slice. I think it could use a little bit more sauce, though.
