Pizza comes out fresh and fast, but toppings fall easily - could probably be cooked a bit longer, but otherwise tasty light pizza.

After hearing so many rave reviews about this place, I was excited to give it a try, but I was thoroughly disappointed. It was easily one of the worst pizzas I’ve ever had.
The dough was limp and soggy, and the sauce was so watery it practically dripped off the slice. I genuinely wanted to love this place, but it fell far short of expectations. If you’re craving a truly delicious, crispy pizza, save yourself the disappointment and walk a block over to B-SIDE on 51st.

I order the MONTANARA GENOVESE…the center of the pizza was soggy, the crust was good overall. I wouldn’t order it again. It was a good experience. My husband ordered the margherita pizza with sausage - it was good. I wish I had ordered the margherita with sausage and mushroom - next time.

Do not order delivery! Placed an order with a requested delivery time and pizza arrived 45 minutes early. Was sent an unclear text message: "hello your pizza order is down when you can bring" and no further attempt to contact me. Needless to say by the time we figured things out the pizza was ice cold and terrible. Have no idea what the pizza is like on site, but would never oder from them again.

I went there in summer a couple of years ago and ate outside - we enjoyed it very much despite the price being NY prices. I went back and sat inside as it was winter, and it was crowded and loud, and there was this chemical smell in the place (something like a toilet deodorant) that really bothered me and didn't let me enjoy 100% and smell/taste the truffle in my pizza del re...

Not very good… don’t believe the hype. Ordered 2 apps and they were okay. Got 3 pizzas and only 1/3 were enjoyable. The classic fried pizza tasted like old oil and came with one piece of basil. Second pizza was the burrata & prosciutto and didn’t really have any flavor. The only tolerable pizza was the pistachio and sausage. Not to mention the pizzas were overly priced for the size.

Great authentic pizza. The flash fried dough selections are delicious along with the croquettes. Will come by again soon to try more..

One of the worst dining experiences I have ever had. Within 5 minutes of ordering the pizza was at the table. It was luke cold. It had been heated up. The crust was mushy and gummy, and the toppings were cool to touch. We asked when we ordered if we could have onion additionally, and parm cheese when it came out. Both requests were answered with no. Apparently they have stock pizzas in the back already cooked and just throw a few toppings on them and heat up. We own a condo here and will never never come again.
Arancini was good. The oil on table made it even better. In my experience you shouldn't have to twist pizza on a fork to be able to eat it. The pizza came out visibly soggy and covered in grease. Could not cut with knife and fork because it just tore everything apart. Could not pick it up or it would break apart.
The tables are small if 2 people get 12" pizzas it's a bit tight.

Simple Italian pizzeria, good pizza but prices a little high. Fast service indeed, a negative note, they take away your plate at the last bite while you are still bringing the fork to your mouth

Very good pizza, huge problem is the payment you have to have 1000 credit cards or only cash, they don't have the pos to bring to the table and they ask you for the codes... you do it

Nice dinner for before a Broadway show. Convenient and reasonably priced. European style.

My husband and I were excited to finally try this pizza place after hearing about it and living in the area for 8 years. Unfortunately, our experience was a huge disappointment.
We walked in and were seated, but we asked to change tables to a more comfortable spot. The server was rude and told us we couldn’t because the table was reserved for a bigger group, even though it didn’t seem like anyone was waiting for it (no one sat there the entire time we were there). This set the tone for the evening—we felt uncomfortable and out of place the entire time.
The service was not great, and we didn’t feel welcome. The owner’s husband was there but didn’t seem to interact with or check in on any tables, which was surprising given the lack of attentiveness from the staff.
As for the food, it was okay but didn’t make up for the poor service. A big part of enjoying a restaurant is the experience, and this one missed the mark completely. We’ve been to many restaurants in the area and, sadly, this was one of the worst experiences we’ve had in awhile. We won’t be back.
Pizza is bland and pizza is soggy
