The pizza here isn’t as good as it used to be. The beef Pattie’s with cheese also declined. No one wears gloves and most pizzerias don’t around here however I haven’t seen anyone else go from handling cash to kneading dough without washing their hands.

Cheese slices are 3 bucks, meaty options are 6+, but it is huge slices and loaded with meat anf cheese. Got the chicken bacon ranch - good chicken bits, very well seasoned. They toast it before handing it to you where you can add some salt n pepper or seasoning to taste. Very iconic late night food. Limited seats inside.

Their pizza is the best I give it 5 stars, I wouldn't buy anywhere else.. However I give them 2 overall because, they have beef patty on their menu and everytime I order itI receive it burnt. I've tried the Gyro and it was very salty. Not sure what that's about but it seems like the pizza is really all that's good there. Then again it is a "pizza shop"

Classic NY style pizza that undont see and taste as often anymore. Everything about this pizza was delicious. The crust was nice and crispy and could hold its fold without flopping over. The tomato to cheese ratio was perfect. The service was friendly and the prices reasonable. All in all, happy to have finally tried this pizza.

It’s was good at one point but owner and customer service is horrible I’ve been going here for 10 years and I don’t understand the entitlement this place has now treated me and my cousin horribly couldn’t ask for basically slice of pizza and straight up lied to us when they said the toppings were no available when they clearly are available and seeing them clearly are available this place will never see a penny from ether of us junkie are truly in front of the store harassing people for money you guys really need to clearly appreciate your customer base and treat your continuing customers better

Basically, everyone knows that New York City has the best pizza and that’s because of the water. I have had many pizzas around New York City and they’re all great. However, I decided to try this one out and it’s actually awesome.I have to preface all this because my father was a chef at some of the top Italian restaurants here in New York City, and my beloved is a Mi Michelin Star trained chef in French and Italian cuisine and actually had her own Italian restaurant up in Provincetown for 20 years, so I have a sense of what taste when you say something tastes good.We ordered two pies, one more difficult than the next I believe. The first. Fresh Mozzarella Pizza with basil with fresh mozzarella cheese.It had a thin crust, and yet perfect to the bite.Then I asked for Supreme Deluxe Pie which is with mushrooms, pepperoni, sausage, peppers, onions and olives. I requested that after the pie comes out for them to put an extra layer of cheese, and have it melt by itself.This pie is hard to do because you have many different textures from the onions, the green peppers, the olives and the thin, sliced sausage and pepperoni. Then when you add the two layers of cheese with a thin sauce and becomes amazing and perfect.This is why I consider this pizza place, not just great but completely awesome. We will definitely be going back to them again and again.
