“This is the best pizza I have ever had, nice crisp, light crust with just the right amount of toppings, no grease at all. I live in CT and thought no pizza was better than our New Haven ones, boy was I wrong!!! Looking forward to returning……soon!“

“Very good atmosphere and very tasty pizzas. A real treat!“

“Went for a late dinner last night at the location in Dyker Heights and so glad we did. We had the specials: Rigatoni with braised shredded Short ribs and Reggiano Parmigiano and Escarole and white beans sautéed with fresh garlic and Extra Virgin Olive oil w roasted Atlantic Salmon. It was delicious! This restaurant never disappoints and the food is always consistent and on point. The staff is friendly and welcoming, which makes dining here even more enjoyable. I highly recommend La Villa in Dyker Heights!“

“highly recommended“

“Just gooood pizza and a chill friendly vibe to go with it.

Got the personal supreme Detroit style pizza (sausage, green pepper, onion) and it was literally a flavour bomb, the crispy cheese on the outside was to die for too. The server was also a gem, super friendly quick service, and the vibe is excellent - vintage films playing in the background, cool decor etc. Also really interesting cocktails! But I didn’t have one because it was lunchtime lols. I’ll be back !“

“I love the delicious salads and pizzas at their store!“

“Love this place: amazing food, nice atmosphere and friendly service!“

“Delicious wood fired pizza with amazing toppings including vegan options. Wonderful, cozy environment and eclectic playlist. You won’t be disappointed!!“

“You really have to try it
The most delicious slice of pizza
The dough is chewy and thin and the ends are crispy.
The tomato sauce, which is not too salty and has the right amount of seasoning, is also different from other places!
Highly recommend the margherita and spinach mushroom!!
I don't like pizza, but this place keeps coming back to me because of the dough and tomato sauce.“

“Really enjoyed the pizza. Got a plain and a pepperoni. Tried the plain first. Delicious.

Pepperoni next was obviously much more oily. Still, incredible. Old school italian dudes working there let you know this place is the truth.“

“Un lugar lleno de historia y con bastante sabor!!! Un gran punto dentro de la gótica cuidad de NY“

“This is truly a hidden gem that needs more recognition! This was our first time trying Korean Pizza, and it did not disappoint. We ordered a half/half (Bbq Chicken and Bulgogi pizza) with the Ube Latte. The explosion of flavors and texture was the cherry on top for this aesthetically pleasing atmosphere. We absolutely loved the sweet potato that borders the soft and crunchy crust! The Ube Latte was delicious and complimented our meal so well. We highly recommend this place.“

“Family owned italian pizza, next to Port Authority Bus Terminal. The best pizza I had in a long time! Friendly service, nice decor with family pictures. I highly recommend!!!“

“Great tasting food and nice atmosphere. Also a very attractive waitress, beautiful“

“Stretch is the creation of Wylie Dufresne, the mad genius behind WD50 and other high-end culinary endeavours. By any stretch of the imagination, pizza is probably one of the more accessible things that he’s put out in some time. And its delicious! We were lucky to be seated by the ‘chefs table’ (my definition, not theirs) and had a nice little chat with the proprietor who was friendly and quick-witted. Its no stretch to say that this place serves up some of the best pies in the area, and the only thing that will feel stretched afterwards may be your waistline.“

“A friend at work recommended we have an office night out here and he probably just won employee of the year off of the pick.

I’ll start out with the drinks… absolutely amazing. I am a bit of a snob when it comes to whiskey and whiskey cocktails so I was skeptical when I saw the Nonino Essence (Bourbon, rye, amaro nonino, cinnamon, orange, angostura) as it was a combo of rye and bourbon… the drink was insanely good. Perfect balance of sweetness from the bourbon and spices from the rye, angostura and cinnamon.

The pizza selection was spot on. We ordered several of the pies and all were amazing. My personal favorite was the Piccante (the hot honey is a hitter!)

Not only were the food and drinks great but the staff was just as great! Super attentive and an absolute pleasure.

There’s a piece of me that wanted to gate keep this spot because I know it’s going to be tough to be able to get a seat there soon but I have to give them props on checking all the boxes needed to make a great night out successful.“

“best“

“Yesterday there was a situation that should have put an end to our orders in this pizzeria! But!!!! The owner of this establishment called personally and we settled all the issues!! Thank you very much! It's insanely pleasant!!! I wish sincere prosperity and success to your business!

And yes, the pizza here is the most delicious in the whole neighborhood!!!!“

“Walked by this place a couple times and finally decided to stop in for a slice of pizza. So glad I did! NYC pizza with a thin crust and nice char, good cheese and pepperoni. Pizza had just come out of the oven and was freshly baked and hot. Service was quick and pleasant. One of the best I’ve had in NYC. Thanks!“

“Owner is really friendly and good vibe all around. Good number of unique pizza options. The pros, every bite is a mouthful of stringy cheese. The cons, it's thin slice pizza and undercarriage doesn't quite support the toppings. Will come back to try their other items.“

“Was in Rockefeller Center yesterday with a friend and got hungry. We stumbled upon this hidden gem underneath the ice rink called ACES pizza! Wow.. extraordinary Pizza. The owner, Jesse, who’s also a Rangers fan, which always wins points, was awesome and we ate 4 different style pizzas. The hot Burrata slices were my favorite , but the buffalo chicken , cheeseburger and Hawaiian slices were sick too!!! And to top it all off Alf was on and I felt like I walked back into 1992.. what a top shelf place. From food, to service to atmosphere. I highly recommend ACES to anyone who likes food - especially pizza. Great job!“

“The pizza is excellent, there is a modest amount of space to eat in, and they have a bar so customers can enjoy an adult beverage with their meal. Friendly service and a reasonable wait makes this good value for one’s money. We will be back!“

“I love this Slice Shop! So tasty! I love the regular, the sausage, the pepperoni, the Mootz, Jake's, Freddy Prinze, Hellboy.“

“Loved this place! 6 of us came for a family meal and it was amazing! Our server, Maxine was so accommodating, attentive and friendly! Drinks were awesome and the pizza was light and delicious! It was crowded but fun and not too loud to talk:)“

“Ordered a pepperoni and the truffle cashew cream. I enjoyed the truffle pizza more. Ordered via UberEATS and unfortunately the delivery guy put my pizza in a backpack vertically. This of course made the pizza look like a mess. Still good though.“

“One word DIABLO !!!🙏❤️ Frost Beer was ice cold !!!“

“We’ve been here several times, and they have the best Caesar salad in the city. As for the pizzas, I’m still undecided. You can’t go wrong with a classic, but the other options seem a bit lackluster. The dough is perfect but they can work on taste.

I also think their prices might have changed since our last visit a few months ago.“

“Low key might be your best slice in Bushwick/Ridgewood. It bests Robertas and Ops easily yet doesn't get the hype of either of the latter. They also have better appetizer options like a mint watermelon salad that we devoured before taking a picture. The pizza hits all the marks of a good pie and then goes a step beyond with a similar price point to Robertas. This is a great spot that's out of the was but absolutely worthy of the trip.“

“A small spot with a few seats. Pizza is pretty good. I go here maybe twice a month. Gotta get you a meat lovers or the garlic pin wheels. A little pricey for pizza BUT I also remember when pizza was a $1 so I still haven't quite let that go 😅.“

“So glad I found this place. I had the honey vodka square and burrata basil slice. Hiney vodka had thicker crust but which was amazingly soft. The flavours melded very well together. Burrata basil’s really yummy too, if you are a fan of burrata. Price was very decent and the service was very friendly. Place was bright and clean for a pizza joint. Will definitely come back and try their other pizzas which all looked good over the counter!“

“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.“

“Friendly owners and fabulous pizza“

“Good service, good pizza taste, cool pizza shape“

“This NYC pizzeria serves 100% Halal meat and offers an Indian twist on classic pizza, blending the best of Italian and Indian flavors. Their menu features everything from classic Napoletana and Romana styles to bold, Indian-inspired creations, each topped withsignature spiced Tadka oil.

The flavors are insane & Every bite is crafted to perfection! The Chicken Tikka Pizza & dosa waffles and chicken are a must! They both left me speechless! And the Paan Lemonade? Pure genius. you're in NYC, this spot is a must for adventurous food lovers!“

“Pizza was well seasoned. Crust was fresh and good sauce.
The chicken parm hero was a little bland. The chicken was a nice sized piece but needed some salt and other help.
I had the half marinara/half vodka and it was difficult to differentiate the two sides. Probably should've ordered extra sauce.
Also, sometimes they just don't answer their phones so it's quicker to just go there and order (and hear their phone ringing in the background).“

“Riccardo & his team are simply amazing! Their hospitality, ambience, & food is truly unmatched!

We held a private event a couple of weeks ago & I have received nothing but compliments raving about the service & the food. People are still messaging me “thinking of the food from your event”

Thank you, Figlia!“

“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“

“Delicious Pizza, Attentive Service, Bustling Atmosphere
This pizzeria impressed me with its mouthwatering pizza and friendly staff. The slice I had was bursting with flavor, and the crust was perfectly cooked. The service was attentive, despite the crowded atmosphere. However, be prepared for a lively environment, which might not be ideal for everyone.“

“Omg I love pizza it’s my favorite food to eat while traveling and I also buy a slice for my dog“

“I love the delicious salads and pizzas at their store!“

“Today was my first time trying Baked by Luigi and let’s just say it won’t be my last. Cute comfortable spot on 23rd st in Manhattan and the owner is simply amazing. Despite it only being him he’s so full of life and energy! Definitely made me want to come back before even having my food. Normally when eating pizza I have a napkin just to take the grease off, that wasn’t the case this time and I’m so glad! Can’t wait to have my next slice.“

“Little Pizza Parlor is an NYU Tandon classic. It was first discovered by my roommate, who put all of us on to the spot. She is a regular there and orders the French Onion slice, which she would rate 10/10. We all went there late one night and the ambiance was incredible. This place deserves more applause.“

“Amazing pizzas. Cacao e Pepe. Vino🍷🍷“

“Been there couple of times and burger is mind-blowing. Pizza also ok.“

“Have been meaning to try this pizza store for a while. Looks so clean from the outside. Wow, I was impressed! Food is priced competitively with the pizza stores in the area (both non-kosher and kosher). Seating was really nice + had outdoor seating. Slices were very good, generous with the cheese on top and had a good crust. We also got sushi. Pleasantly surprised and happy to have a gem like this in the neighborhood. Wishing them hatzlacha!“
