50 Best Pizza Restaurants near Halfmoon

“This place is quite elegant for a Golf Course Clubhouse. I couldn't give it 5 stars because I don't drink. I found the brewery entertaining. It's a destination if you like beer or want to see a show. The food was fantastic and the Servers are attentive!“

“My wife recently had to go gluten free, and we have been trying to find a good place to easily get breakfast for a date. We happened to find Birch Baked with a Google search and checked it out. We were not disappointed! We each got a breakfast sandwich and a sweet treat (she got a cookie and I got a cider donut). The food was awesome!! If I didn't know everything was gluten free, I would have had no idea. We are definitely coming back to try out other things like their pizza, hot and cold sandwiches, and the owner told us they are starting a dinner night Thursdays and Fridays with lots of great options. Top notch place filling a big need in the area.“

“Never disappoints and I love love love the gluten free pizza. Great specialty pizzas. The Brie pizza is my favorite. It’s SO delicious. It’s difficult for me to not treat myself to here often. It is a little small so sometimes it can be a bit awkward sitting at the high top tables and people gathering around the bar. But overall they did great with the general store and it’s a lovely space!“

“We ordered a vegetarian 12" pizza. Came well packed and with a fair helping of all the necessary ingredients that make for a good pizza, plus the fact I had ordered an extra helping of black olives which went down very well. Wish they had included some ketchup too.“

“This place is often overlooked due to being inside the mall, but don't let that deter you because this is easily one of my favorite pizza places (and I've eaten pizza in approximately 50% of the states in America). Staff is always friendly, but not in that "it's my job to be friendly" way, it feels genuine like they care about what they do and it shows. Solid food all around but the pizzas are my main attraction. They're great when you buy em fresh, but also outstanding when you buy from the traditional reheated slice pies on display. It is 9AM as I'm typing this and after typing out this review I'm ready to eat it like the heathen I am RIGHT NOW.Vegetarian options: Any pizza place has veg options if you order it right, anything beyond that and I'm not sure.“

“I ordered a half pan of lasagna to take with me and it was piping hot, fresh out of the oven at the scheduled time and, oh my gosh, it was absolutely delicious!! We brought it to my brother's new house without having to cook and it was fantastic!“

“If I could leave more than 5 stars I would. I hosted a private event in there event space yesterday and I was blown away with the attention to detail and the personal attention we received the entire party. The owners of the Speckled Pig are truly some of the kindness people I have ever met. They made our party an enormous hit! I would highly recommend this event space to all who wish to have a stress free, every detail taken care of kind of party!!“

“Love this quirky yet cozy and super-cool spot. A great thing about Troy is the old buildings there have cool nook-like spaces such as this. The wood fired wings were really good - not straight down the middle typical Buffalo wings, but very good (with top notch bleu cheese.). “Medium” had just the right amount of heat for us. Pizza was very good too. Look forward to going back. Recommend.“

“I’ve had my share of pizza, this is the best in the region. Thin slice, crispy crust, wings are phenomenal.. and we all know that’s hard to find nowadays. Have never got something here I didn’t like.. pizza, sub, garlic knots, wings.. these guys know how to make it.“

“Me and my boyfriend found this place over the summer and have been frequents of circle pizza ever since. The food prices are very fair and all the food is amazing every time. The staff is supper friendly and we never have an issue with the order. We have 4 kids and this place is very afordable. Our fave dish from them is the chicken over rice it’s always so fresh and so delicious. Today my son got an Oreo pie piece and that also was amazing. You can’t go wrong here. Between the food the prices and the staff it really is top notch.“

“The place is small and the food is great, which makes it often really busy. If you plan to come in peak-hours, plan for a wait.However, for me, the wait was well worth it!The chicken wings I ordered were perfect. Well-sourced, not too fatty, not dry, and cooked to perfection. The ranch was delicious (not the watery-grocery-store-kind). Plenty of carrots and celery to bite on in between the wings! The side of fries that I ordered was served is a cute cast iron mini-pot!Parking: If you're going there for the first time, take a note of the extra parking lot they offer, as there's very limited parking available right by the restaurant.“

“Very tasty ?.. had the meat lovers. Big slices and lots of toppings. If you want something even better try the steak stromboli. Loaded with steak, peppers, onions and cheese. The crust/dough was amazing too. Highly recommend.. 2 ?? up. Also the place is open late.“

“I live maybe 5 minutes away from here, I always like to try new foods. I mentioned to my boyfriend about the galleria and how we should go! So we did. And I'm so happy we did! They all all kinds of food here. Walking in to this place was definitely a welcoming vibe. All the different vendors were ready to help you & so nice! My boyfriend got a burrito & I got crab ragoons, spicy tuna tar tar & a salmon roll. We had NO complaints. The food was delicious! Definitely will be coming back here.“

“Augie's was absolutely amazing! It was the first time I had ever been, and I would recommend it to everyone! I grew up in B.Spa and remember that location as being an IGA market way back when. I hadn't been back in probably 40 years. Honestly, everything at Augie's was perfect...the atmosphere, service, and the food were phenomenal! Five stars across the board! Fortunately, we arrived early because shortly thereafter, the dining area near the bar filled up quickly. From my understanding, they take reservations, and I will be making one next time we go.Parking: We had no issues with parking but we arrived early. As we were leaving, I did notice the lot in front was very full, so late arrivals may encounter some issues potentially.“

“consistently the best pizza I can find delivered around here! It is slightly on the well done side which I love ....everything they have has been well above average! Please keep doing what you do -its very hard to find above average pizza around here ( especially delivered ). Wings are also above average best I can find outside of eating at a place in person.“

“This is the best pizza in Troy. Hands down. Yeah you will hear other people say this place is better, that place is better...this is the best. I have been coming here for over 25 years and have never had a slice of pizza that wasn't good. I remember when it was a pizza and a soft drink for $1.50. Still not expensive and relatively decent prices in 2024.“

“I recently moved to the area and have found Brooke's Pizza. The Pizza is great, the place is extremely clean and the staff is *FAST* and friendly. You generally will not be waiting long for anything!And I love their submarine sandwiches!! This place is the new standard by which other shops will be judged!“

“I have gone here twice now for lunch. First time I got chicken bacon ranch pizza with garlic knots and the second time was the same but I got a beef patty instead of garlic knots. Everything has tasted amazing and the staff is friendly. My favorite place to go to lunch on my breaks.“

“This place was amazing.....The garlic parmesan chicken wings were delicious and the Meat Lovers Calzone was so good and the portions are huge...... took home a meatball sandwich for dinner and the meatballs were the best I ever have eaten.....you owe it to yourself to try it. You won't be disappointed....“

“The strategy to winning a case in court is to follow this simple procedure: 1-Tell the jury what you are going to do. 2. Do it. 3. Summarize and tell them how you did it. This same formula works to perfection at what has been called "Troy's best kept secret." Proudly displayed on the shirts that several of the staff and chef's wear two vital commitments are proclaimed. "Comfort Food" and "Famiglia.".So there is no pretense here. This is no place for nouvelle cuisine with its miniscule portions and esoteric dishes. Rather it is an embracing, warm establishment where the care and love that are emblematic of the southern Italian culture are continually in evidence. You would expect than the storied favorites to be served up in impressive portions where flavors are married into a tasteful delight. At Testo's you have come to the right place. Elsewhere on Yelp another reviewer will state that Testo's and Verdile's are equals, with strong proponents for each. I couldn't disagree more. In fact that is like saying "I can't quite choose between a 1974 Chevy Vega and a 1973 Porsche 911 for sale at the same price. HAH! Testo's blows their supposed rival right out of the water in terms of atmosphere, service, portion size, menu choices, TASTE of the food, dedication to quality, and diner satisfaction. One time there some months ago and I will never return to the Chevy Vega. One time at the Porsche 911 and I had to return the very next day for the Friday special, having been delighted with the Thursday special of lasagna. And oh, the sauce! No wonder they bottle and sell it right there at this friendly neighborhood restaurant. It is like my Father's and maternal Grandmother's, nurtured on either sides of Mt. Etna in Sicily. A great sauce is known by its texture and a taste that is a medley of flavors that let the tomatoes sing. I have had so many mediocre to terrible red sauces served at supposed Italian restaurants that I could scream, or cry, or give up on trying to recapture what MY "famiglia" did so well and so consistently. Thank God I at last discovered this treasure still imbedded in memories of the Sunday gatherings of Italian-Americans with one foot still in the old country. These are glorious, boisterous affairs of up to twenty or more relatives. Dino Martino (Dean Martin to non-Italians) singing the songs of Naples (I shed a silent tear at "Return to me oh my darling"), or that early sixties' favorite "Volare." Now to the food, the star of all great restaurants. The lasagna was as well prepared as the sauce, creamy and stuffed with the joy of high quality ricotta (I swear some Jersey Diners use cottage cheese--an "infamnia")! Having seen a photograph of a layered apple dessert on their website, I took courage in hand (because the lasagna portion was indeed generous). A brilliant move on my part. It came warm and beautiful with real whipped cream and several healthy scoops of vanilla ice cream to the side. Even the coffee is top notch, always fresh and deeply flavored. I can't leave out the wonderful staff that enhances the dining experience. From the sweetest and kindness young woman you are like to meet these days, Daisha, to Testo's own Talia Shire/Connie (from 'Godfather II era, please) Lisa who guides her young servers with impeccable knowledge and a steady hand of encouragement. Unlike Verdile's bored ancients doing a "Stepin Fetchit" routine (look it up), this crew throws themselves into their responsibilities with enthusiasm and efficiency., guaranteeing that their service will be the equal to the very fine cuisine. Prices are fair and in keeping with the investment in nothing but the best ingredients. "Skimping" is simply not in the vocabulary of the two sons who make their founding father proud. My friends, this is an immersive experience in the best of classic Italian-American food and culture. You will be like family, comforted by food and feeli“

“We went to dinner for our son's birthday. Everything was wonderful, food, service and the atmosphere. We had two young grandchildren with us. Our waiter really helped make the children's time fun. We will definitely return.Parking: The parking was behind the restaurant. It was shared with other businesses. It was dark so it was somewhat of a challenge for my wife. It was also our first time going. Next time we would know the area better.“

“Neighborhood bar with great food... Great steak sandwich, Caesar salad and white pizza. Was a nice meeting partner to catch up with friends... Relaxing no rush atmosphere. I'll be back...Parking: Street parking... Was easy at lunch time the day before ?“

“the Elvis caught me off-guard because there is nothing on the outside that warns you of the sheer amount of memorabilia, they also sell vernors-which is as far as I know-very rare outside of Michigan. I think they should extend their opening hours though.“

“Cute little place, I ordered garlic knots, 8 slice pizza, bacon bleu burger and bbq boneless wings. The garlic knots are huge and soft couldn’t taste the garlic but it was still good. The Burger was delicious it was cooked right and had chipotle mayo and bleu cheese crumbles on it and that was my first time trying chipotle mayo DELICIOUS. The boneless chicken was good too, best sauce.“

“Well guys, I already knew they make the BEST PIZZA IN BALLSTON SPA, NY And Now? I just had my first sausage, peppers, onions and cheese from there and it was magnificent! I mean BETTER than I’ve had anywhere including the Fair where everything tastes great LOL SAUSAGE DONE JUST RIGHT, peppers & Onions done to perfection topped with cheese nestled in a fresh roll. And believe me…hot, Hot, HOT! Wrapped to go and It smelled so great I couldn’t wait to get home to eat it. It was still quite hot after I unwrapped it! Two huge halves to literally devour and it took me quite awhile to eat it all but believe me I worked at it LOL It was so GOOD that I called when I was done feasting on this Beast of a Sandwich! I would recommend the Sausage, pepper & onion on a roll because you’ll enjoy every bite.? Lastly? I called to let them know how pleased I was and it wouldn’t be my last one!! ? Always good service always great food. ?“

“I thought the pizza was really good compared to other local options. When I walked at 11:45 am on a Tuesday, the bar area was full of people while the rest of the restaurant appeared empty! Super noisy! Maybe there was an event or business party? Seemed like a good sign. Since I was picking up, I just walked over to the cash register and pulled out my cash, since there was a sign notifying you of a 3% surcharge on card charges. Pizza came out hot and smelling delicious! I ordered a large but since there is thick crust, and a 8-slice pizza, it seemed to be what a size medium would look like. The crust was flavorful and crispy on the bottom, but chewy on the sides and top. The crust was thick! There wasn't a lot of cheese grease dripping off, which is a good thing. I felt that the sauce was bland and not very thick, so a little disappointed about that but it wasn't a deal breaker. At $2.50 per topping, the toppings were well-distributed and fresh, so that was good. All in all a very good pizza. It was around $26 for a "large, three topping, 8-slice pizza, for take out" and we really enjoyed it especially since many of the other pizza places near Niskayuna/NE Schenectady are don't sell the style of pizza we like. I understand the positive reviews and happy to have discovered this place close to home.“

“We recently had pizza, chicken tenders and antipasta from Inferno Pizzeria. (Lishakill Road). The pizza was fresh and so delicious; the chicken tenders were moist and tender; and the antipasta was over the top. Enjoyed everything.....can't wait to go back.“

“We order weekly and it ALWAYS arrives before promised time, while still hot and delicious. We’ve never been disappointed with the food or delivery. Mario goes above and beyond with quality, delivery & expectations. Every order has been exceptional. 10/10 would recommend!!“

“Ordered takeout we had the cheeseburger paradise pizza thin crust was good loaded with toppings and Jeremy’s way pizza was good too not bad very loaded.Wings are not good at all very dry looks like deep fried couple times not enough sauce had the garlic parm and honey hot.Service is nice very decent ladies helping you on the phone and give the order out.“

“La Famiglia nails it every time with their pizza and wings. We've done the rounds at other spots in the capital region, but we always circle back to what we know is the best. It’s become such a favorite that it's our tradition to order from them every Halloween.?“

“I went in yesterday and they were closing. I completely understood and told him I wasn't from here and left. The chef came out and offered to make us a fresh one. Which was amazing and so was the pizza. Anytime I'm back in this area I'll only get pizza from here. Top notch service food and people.“

“We rented the upstairs dining room for my partner's birthday - 20 people. Maeve was great helping plan (and putting up with our shifting guest list and dietary needs), Chef Jake put together an excellent tasting menu and executed it so well. Service was great, the space was perfect for the party...the night could not have gone better!“

“I'm giving a somewhat grudging 4 stars tonight. Great pizza, frustrating service.Waited outside for 25 minutes for the order to show as ready but it never did, so if you pick up just go inside and ask about it. The pizza itself was wonderful once I heated it back up.“

“So no matter what you have here, it's going to be great but believe it or not the best pizza around isn't from a Pizza Parlor it's from this Ballston Spa Deli and sandwich shop. The Chicken Pesto Pizza comes with fresh tomato's, loads of shredded chicken and gobs of melted cheese. Not only does it taste great but it leaves you feeling full without feeling regret. I can easily get away with the 12 cut but I always order the 24 and pack my extra off in the freezer. It makes for an easy and satisfying dinner with 10 minutes in the oven at 375f. Add whatever salad you can whip up while it's heating and you've got an easy dinner. Love it!“

“Absolutely delishious. My wife had The Pranzo and I ordered the The Italian, both had eggplant in them and it awesome. The Pranzo is a spinach wrap. My wife couldn't say enough how much she enjoyed it. The Italian had old school Italian sesame seed sub roll. The bread was extremely fresh, not dense and doeiy where you're eating a lot of bread. The meats in my sub were delishious. I'm 6ft 2in., 256 lbs. and have a big appetite and that sub was more than enough. My wife could only finish half of her wrap. A awesome value as the prices are very reasonable. My order was a take out however the young lady at the counter was very personable and friendly. Give this place a try, you will not regret it.“

“It was a nice relaxed weekday lunch. The spinach artichoke dip was amazing. Ordered a large pizza so I could have lots of leftovers. The pizza is good if you like a slightly doughier crust edge. The mozzarella was very cheesy and the toppings were quite abundant.Vegetarian options: They offer many meatless options and many of the dishes are vegetable based.Parking: Many parking spaces and good sized handicapped section.Wheelchair accessibility: It seemed that things were set up quite well for wheelchair access.“

“This place is absolutely phenomenal! Everytime I order from here they are always so sweet, funny and just really great to interact with. The portions are huge and for the price you can't beat it, I would recommend this place to everyone if I could. The only thing I will say, is I just wish they were open just a bit later, especially for those later night cravings, nothing compares.“

“We ordered French fries, 3 types of 18 size pizzas, broccoli tomato pizza, meat lover's pizza, and cheese pizza for delivery.It's very convenient because you can order online.The pizza was very delicious. There was also a lot of volume. The French fries were crispy and came with sauce. thank you. I want to eat it again.“

“One of my favorite comfort foods. Can't beat the prices. Not to mention. These guys are usually up and delivering earlier as well as later than most. With everything that you expect of a sub /pizza shop. I like that I can order online but don't have to choose to pay electronically. I can still finalize my order and choose to pay cash on delivery. I can't tell you how many times I will have cash on me but hate to place orders over the phone, I'm someone who has to look at the menu as I'm ordering. Or I'll forget what sounded good.Kid-friendliness: They understand picky eaters and always have a perfect solution for my kids.“

“The moment the Italian sub touched my tongue. My tastebuds were transported to a world of pleasure, bliss, and happiness. Never did I know a sub could have such a profound impact on my life. Day and night I think of the meticulous and caring hands that put together this delectable sub. When I die one day, I'll see that sub as my life's peak.Vegetarian options: BreadDietary restrictions: They got different stuff for pplParking: It bigKid-friendliness: Kids love and hang out hereWheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair work“

“The Tavern style pizza is the BEST pizza I've ever eaten, and I've eaten a lot of pizza. I live in Watervliet and I'll drive over some nights when the missus and I have a craving. Seriously Stillwater always has three pizzerias, this is the one you need to try if you're in the area. Plus the owner is always an awesome personable fella.“

“Best food and best people... This is my family's number one place to order from... We have been going here for years normally i pick up our food to say hi to everyone however tonight I'm having it delivered but believe me when I tell you they are the best!!! Thank you for all you do“

“Before I start getting chewed out by anyone, Atmosphere is a 1 out of 5. Care to guess why? There is no atmosphere. You order, you get it, you leave. Oh, and it's cash only. No credit cards, no bitcoin, nothing crazy. The whole establishment exists for 1 sole purpose: to provide pizza and pizza type staples one would come to expect from a pizza establishment. For every corner cut to make this place a pickup only establishment, it's for a purpose. That purpose is to provide some of the BEST pizza and some of the BEST hot wings in the area. Their wings, honestly have incredible kick and some outstanding spice to them. The pizza is incredibly balanced with their flavors. Not too sweet on the sauce, not too much garlic, dough is just right. A decent laughing point, though, is their wings. I've never heard of wings and spuds. Ever. It's good, actually. Incredibly good. Great combination. I'd have never thought to put the two together, but that's my own limited imagination. 10/10 love this place.“

“This is a nice late night spot to get something to eat. It was very nice inside and clean. I like my wings saucy I asked for them like that and some were saucy and some were dry that’s why I took off one star. The pizza was good I would definitely come back.“

“I'm so happy this place was reopened! The Bartenders were so awesome! I love the vibe of the entire place, the historic building is so cool. Everything was great - they had espresso martinis on tap and they tasted perfect. The mozzarella logs appetizer were amazinggg and the french onion soup, burger and pizzas were great too. Definitely recommend!“

“This is certainly one of the best places to hang out as a student of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. It can be either to grab a coffee, have a bite to eat, or just chill out with your friends. It is also a nice place to study or work.There are ample amenities for charging your laptop, playing some indoor games like table tennis, billiards, etc. There is also a pub upstairs and various meeting rooms. The Panera Bread here is also pretty good.“

“Forts Ferry Farm (FFF) is hard to define. It changes from season to season and as a farm, that seems befitting. For Fun Foods, now shuttered, used to offer prepared and frozen foods on site. There was also a selection of produce from the farm and pantry items like extra virgin olive oil sold in their store. Issues with the town of Colonie put an end to that venture. Not to worry, FFF, has a presence at both the Delmar and Troy Farmers' Markets for retail. They also have farmers' market pop ups at the farm on occasion. They seem to have a burgeoning wholesale market with several restaurants in the area. The wholesale market is open to everyone using the fortsferryfarmwholesale.… website. I believe they have plans to open a retail store in Hudson. I once emailed a question through their website about mycology (watching too much The Last of Us) and one of the owners, Emma Hearst, replied almost immediately to my question. Both she and her husband, John Barker, are chefs. I believe their restaurant's name in NYC was Sorella. They moved back upstate to grow food and share it with their community, both fellow chefs and consumers. The produce grown on the farm is top notch. I remember eating different heirloom tomatoes from the farm. It was simply cut, drizzled with a little olive oil, and sprinkled with a pinch of salt. The taste of those tomatoes defines summer. Another discover for me was honeynut squash. It has a thinner skin which is edible and the flesh seems much sweeter than butternut squash. The salad mixes are generous and bagged for convenience. The ginger they're growing seems to be a different varietal. They offer the tried and true classics but also venture out to offer different options to their patrons. The brand of Forts Ferry Farm is managed very well. They have both designers and farmers on staff. Check out the photos created by the staff on this site, they're gorgeous. I believe their cookbook will also be out for sale soon. Whatever Forts Ferry Farm grows into, I'm sure it will be innovative yet also founded on cultivating "goodness".By the way, if you ever have the opportunity to get one of their salted chocolate chip cookies, do not hesitate. Honestly, it's probably the best I've ever had.“

“The pizza was fantastic, cooked well, plenty of toppings. They were pretty nice, though it was quite the wait. I wish they had been more accurate in their estimate.I recommend trying some pizza from Doms, but be careful if you're in a rush.“

“I have been coming here for 25 years. My favorite is Antipasto and a Pepperoni Pizza, calzones. Always fresh, hot. Sometimes there is extra grease so make sure to have extra napkins. Owners are very nice and welcoming. There are a couple of booths to sit at. My order is always ready in 20 minutes. Always a good experience for me. Recommend.Parking: The pizza shop is in a type of strip mall with a huge free parking lot. So plenty of spots.“
