Over priced, small portions. Rude as hell.
I ordered a Sicilian slice for 14$, where is the other half?!?!

Tourist level pizza at best. Really nice staff and a decent deal, but not that great pizza.

I tried to give this spot a shot, but they let me down.
When I finally did, I only ordered something simple as I usually do to test a place out. My motto is, if a restaurant can't make something simple seem so brand new, then the place is just an average spot. I bought a slice of cheese but not before being told they don't accept card because the machine is down. Ok, no biggie, I told the cashier I would order a slice and come back after getting change from their ATM machine inside the shop. I walk off, get the cash, come back to the guy, he takes my money, and then decides to put in my order to heat up.

After waiting for a while just for a slice of cheese, I finally get my slice. The cashier who was handling the food and the cash wasn't so nice to begin with. His approach was to rush me out, and it wasn't even busy, nor was it near closing time. I can tell he was treating me differently as there were a couple there after me he decided to take care of when I initially left for the ATM machine, and they got a nicer approach. Ok, no worries, I was not bothered. I got my order and sat outside on one of their tables. I didn't want to keep seeing him so I could stay positive for the rest of my day.

Now, I say gracie then pull out the slice of cheese it just made things worse. The slice seemed so dried out and old just from the looks of it even after being heated up, and that's coming from someone who worked in a pizza shop for quite some time before. On top of that, I don't remember seeing him wearing any gloves while he was serving the food and touching the cash. If you can zoom in on the picture, there's a finger imprint on the tip of the slice so disgusting. If I had not been in the need to rush back to work waiting so long for a slice of cheese, this review might have been different, giving I would have time for them to save this story. I ripped the tip part of the slice and ate what I had to work with and went back to work.

I would never recommend this place if they continue to have staff that plays bias and doesn't have a proper food handling ordinance.

Not even close to a New York pizza slice. Cheese was barely melted. Overpriced

Literally, my favorite place to get pizza in New York. I come up to New York every three months and this is one of the three places I get food every time.
