Seems fine until you try the pizzeria across the street.

I’ve been coming to Ben’s Pizzeria for years – for me, it’s a true New York institution 🍕. Located right by Washington Square Park, it’s the perfect spot to grab a delicious pizza before or after a walk through the park. The atmosphere is lively, authentic, and the pizza is simply great.

I didn't have any big problem, but there was an interesting after taste that made me a little uncomfortable. It was also a little more expensive than I thought, but maybe that's typical around here. I'll probably go back to try another flavor though because it's at a convenient location

Pretty much the worst pizza I have ever eaten—or tried to eat. After a few bites, I threw it away.

I was actually looking for whatever pizzeria was open at this time, and ended up here which is well whatever ok… 🤣 not the best and not the worst. It was a decent slice but definitely nothing special. Do not hope to get your mind blown here. I ordered a supreme and it was $6. Usual dingy pizza shop vibe with decent service.

Cute old pizza place but unfortunately both the cheese and pepperoni slices were disappointing for NYC pizza standards. Not enough tomato sauce on the pizza and cheese was tasteless. Pepperoni as well did not taste like anything. Service itself was okay.
Also, pepperoni slices was $5 each and since the taste was okay, it was hard to see how the price was worth the quality.
* Edit to respond to restaurant’s response to review: Thank you for your courteous reply. I feel some guilt; b/c I don’t want to participate in hurting your business, truly. I even have friends who run a restaurant family business. I wanted to “call it like I see it”, but I also want to highlight the excellent points; they are important and valuable.
The ambiance of this place is truly “classic NYC pizza stop, which is becoming more rare. I like it. A good fountain soda is hard to find, particularly in NYC. (The machines require a fair amount of cleaning and maintenance. Many places are just not doing it.) Visitors, transplants, humans in general—MANY are feeling they deeply want or need a “good fountain soda”
I *highly recommend* your place for a proper, delicious soda break.
As for my opinion of the slice I ate, your mileage may vary. There are as many opinions as there are New Yorkers.

The guys servicing there were really bad. They were rude to us and did not listen to us. Felt like they were high on something. I wouldn’t rate the service there. The pizza’s were mid!
Pepperoni was meh but the Hawaiian was DISGUSTING. Canned pineapple and ridiculously disgusting processed ham.

Best pizza in or around the Village by a long shot. Apparently they take credit cards now, which is not a development I expected to see in my lifetime.

Literally out for the night and enjoying the food for about 15 minutes in. The guy who was cleaning told us to hurry up and leave at 2:12 AM when they close at 3 AM.

Plain Slice frankly sucks. And Dough/crust lacks flavor. Nice fountain soda, though.
