Famous Original Ray's Pizza is known for its top-quality pies with a generous amount of cheese, making their slices stand out from other pizzerias. The menu offers a wide range of toppings and combinations, including classic pepperoni and gourmet options. The pizzeria has plenty of seating, especially suited for big groups, and the space is clean, spacious, and welcoming. Customers often enjoy very large slices of pizza with amazing crust, with a large pizza typically cut into 8 slices. The pepperoni pizza is especially popular, sometimes even preferred over the margarita pizza. The friendly staff, including the pizza makers and team members, create a warm, family-like atmosphere that keeps customers coming back. It is conveniently located near Central Park and the American Museum of Natural History, making it a perfect spot for a quick, casual meal. The restaurant is open on holidays like Christmas, and visitors praise the staff for being sweet and nice. Many find it an ideal place for a quick bite, especially when visiting the museum, with fast service and a kid-friendly environment. Customers also enjoy the variety of freshly cooked pizza, including eclectic options, and often highlight the crunchy crust and great flavors. The garlic knots are considered epic, and the square pizza is highly recommended. Overall, Famous Original Ray's Pizza offers a delicious, satisfying meal in a friendly, accessible setting.
