50 Best Pizza Restaurants near Rockaway Beach

“Placed an order in advance online but when it came time for delivery the driver couldn't reach me. The store manager even tried to reach me but for some reason the phone calls weren't coming through. When I called the store the manager communicated with the driver and was able to to get my order. I never have any problems with this store. My food is always hot and tasty. My food is always on time. I hope they keep up the good work!“

“In a city of delicious pizza, this pizza is DELICIOUS. Shared some apps and pies, cleaned our plates. Only regret not leaving room for dessert. Had a res for around 6 on a Saturday, they’re definitely popping around that time. Good atmosphere, not too loud, friendly service.“

“Had a pasta and pizza and they were both amazing. We are from Australia and found it hard to find a good restaurant in the Marina bay sands area and this did not disappoint. 5 stars“

“Everything was perfect. Walking in we were checked in by the owner himself, who sat us at the corner of the bar immediately. The atmosphere takes you straight into old time NYC. Food was incredible, arguably the best pizza I’ve ever had. All around amazing experience!“

“Our server Christian was super attentive, and patient. While my partner has been here before, this was my first time. We ordered drinks and entrees. The pasta was cooked perfectly, and the Mac & Cheese was very cheesy! The glasses for the water were chilled, which was a very nice touch!

Also, I don't eat pork! The spaghetti bolognese only had beef, which was amazing, as so many places include pork. So, for those who don't eat pork, come here!

The atmosphere was very chilled & the music was a great volume - not too loud but loud enough that we were able to have a conversation and it still feel private.

We will be back.“

“It really is some of the best pizza in NYC. You can taste the effort that goes into every pie, and the crust is immaculate. I've gone twice and waited maybe eight minutes in line at most and the staff were very nice and friendly (and enjoyed the little VHS TV in the corner while my order was cooking). Honestly if you are in the area at all it is fully worth it, haters be damned“

“Loved it here! Just stopped in at the spur of the moment and I am so glad I did! Felt like I was in a Manhattan Bar! Eva the bartender was great and so was the rest of the staff. Felt like I was with friends.“

“Love this place, but I mistakenly ordered the GF pizza and only realized once I got home that it looked nothing like the photo on the website. It just wasn’t what I expected. The staff were great when I called — they replaced it free of charge and were really helpful.

That said, the website could really use an update. The standard pie and the GF pie are very different, and the current photos are a bit misleading. I had to drive back to swap it, which could’ve been avoided with accurate images.

Still a fan of this spot, just hoping the online menu gets updated!

The first image is the website and the others are mine - the reality - much deeper pie, no crust, and in my opinion, not nice at all.“

“This spot is unfreaking real and so unassuming on the outside… My group walked over to Chrissy’s not realizing it was pies only no sliced and some friendly people on the street directed us here—for good reason. These are truly some of the best slices I’ve had. Everyone raved about it after! Would definitely recommend.“

“My spouse and my favorite neighborhood restaurant. The best place to pop in for a quick date night or to bring parents to brunch on a sunny weekend. It was the obvious place for us to host our wedding this past weekend. The food (pizza, pastas, charcuterie, focaccia, and of course, oysters) were all fantastic as always. Yuki and the service staff took amazing care of us. They turned every trial into an opportunity such as graciously moving tables inside when it started to rain. We can’t thank them enough for the beautiful role they played in the happiest day of our lives. We can’t wait to relive it over and over every time we drop in for one of our favorite meals“

“Only take out to go. Pick up . Small space. The food is good , I got the garlic parmesan wings. Wings were small but good. Would have liked bigger portions for the price they charged.

Parking: No parking lot , only street.

Wheelchair accessibility: Big entrance so you can go in , in a wheelchair.“

“Best Pizza Ever!!! Went today for the 1st time and was amazed. Must try!! I ate there…was so good, I had to get a few slices to go.“

“Good pizza and a good atmosphere in a good spot“

“The BEST Sicilian square sourdough pizza on the planet 🌎 their sauce is organic and phenomenal, the cheese is wonderful, olives and if you feel like it Add some sausage, and the yummiest pecorino Romano shreds just topped it off. The crispiest crust and So incredibly digestible, because it’s sourdough. Sourdough is fermented and your gut loves fermented food… Love their little gem lettuce salad with their homemade dressing. Very simple here I think we ordered 3 square pies and of course brought some home The Sicilian squares heats up beautifully Just love OPS on Himrod Bushwick Brooklyn!!!! We brought our son who lives in Louisville and this time brought our daughter and boyfriend who live in San Diego and their rock star Pal who is on a tour with THE WHO. All give the square pizza A+ Excellent! The staff is warm and friendly!!!“

“Ordered for the first time last night, they were super accommodating since we called at 8:45 and they close at 9:00…. They made us 5 pies and I’m was so appreciative. They were so nice and even recommended one which I absolutely loved (with potatoes!) we can’t wait to go back but to eat there so we get the Pizza Hut out of the oven! Amazing owners and such a delight to have in valley steam!! The owner explained the ingredients and concept to my husband and his friend. They can’t back telling us so about it!“

“When Cento Uno Pizzeria opened up in my neighborhood, I was beyond ecstatic. The food is amazing and fresh (the white slice is my favorite), and the owner is extremely friendly and conversational. There’s a nice atmosphere and upbeat music always playing. I’ve been going there every week for over a year now, and will continue forever. 100/10 recommend!!!“

“Great pizza. Didn’t like the white pizza but that is just my personal taste. The cheese slice and pepperoni slice were excellent. Loved the sausage. Spicy just like I like it.“

“Great service and Pizza to die for. My favorite spot for Queens“

“Visited this pizza shop on my way to the airport and it was such a lovely experience. The pizza was great, and the owner is so friendly! He offered my partner and I a sample slice so we could try the food first. We got the lunch specials which were only $6 for two slices and a soda. Wonderful hospitality, and there's a lot of regulars here too. It is cash only so make sure you have some on hand.“

“I was in town for a day and didn’t realize there was a manhattan location but wanted to try them so bad I travelled 40 mins to Brooklyn and it was SO WORTH IT! They even gave me an extra slice 🥹 I did the sweet Thai chili oxtail and the brown stew oxtail pizza and it was so good even the crust was delicious on its own! I see why this place went viral now! I wish we had one in Cleveland but then again maybe not cause I’d gain 40lbs eating this weekly 😍 music was bumping and great selection, the staff was so chill and kind and didn’t make me feel like a tourist 🤣 loved the vibes here. Highly recommend if you’re in the nyc area to try this at least once before you go!“

“Tried Rome to Brooklyn and ordered a Grandma, Cheese, a Meat Lovers, plus 4 garlic knots. Overall, really good pizza. The cheese and meat lovers were 🔥 flavorful, satisfying, and exactly what you want when you’re in the mood for solid NYC pizza. The garlic knots were also a win.

The Grandma slice, though? Looked beautiful, but flavor-wise it didn’t hit the same for me. Might just be personal preference, because everything else was on point.

Only other thing: it’s a little overpriced… but also, it’s Williamsburg, so what did I expect? Would come back, just might skip the Grandma next time.“

“Update: changing this to 5 stars since it is more than deserved. Thank you Salsa for a memorable night ❤️

I had my 40th birthday at Salsa Greenpoint and it was the perfect place for a pizza party :). The layout of the space was great, with plenty to seat and our own bathroom to access. The team was very accommodating with accepting deliveries and giving us time to decorate for the night.

The food was delicious and the unlimited food option for group parties was perfect! Everyone enjoyed the appetizers and pizzas, as well as the cannoli :)

Thanks again to Salsa for helping us make it a special night for friends & family, and myself. We all had a great time!“

“The best pizza ever. My 13 year old begs to get it every time we are in Brooklyn and we oblige. Perfect crispy dough, amazing sauce and cheese.“

“Visiting from Pennsylvania and I used to work in the area, I haven’t had good Pizza in a REALLY LONG TIME“

“Champion Pizza has really great pizza with a perfectly cooked crust and fresh ingredients. Our order was ready quickly, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. The place was clean and had a comfortable atmosphere. I would definitely recommend Champion Pizza to anyone looking for good pizza in the area. ❤️“

“This restaurant is a very clean friendly neighborhood place, where everyone feels welcome and the food is good and the prices are reasonable.“

“This place is incredible the pizza is so good and the garlic knots are also good. This place is clean and delicious. Also they have this good deal that when you buy 2 slices of pizza you get water or a canned drink. You won’t be disappointed! The pizza is kind of cheap but it is the best pizza in nyc!I love this place!“

“Came to visit this place for the first time and I live close. And all I can say is it’s great . A great pizza place in rockaway! The atmosphere is great, it looks like the workers enjoy doing their job. They were very friendly + the service was extremely quick. I myself tried a plain slice and garlic knots and was very surprised with just how good it was. Will definitely come by many more times in the future. Please come try!“

“Pretty cool place. Everyone is really nice there as well.“

“I got the shrimp and lobster pizza and the oxtail. Sandwich with I believe it was jerk sauce. Both were very good. I was a little bit skeptical about spending $20 for a slice of pizza but it was worth it. From the pizza crust to the sandwich bread to the shrimp and lobsters and the oxtail all the ingredients taste fresh. looked it, too The server was very nice. I had been sitting, waiting for my order and he held the package out to me waiting until I came over. I like that he didn’t put it down on the counter and walk away which I thought was very nice. It’s a small location, but that was OK. I wasn’t there very long. This is definitely my new pizza joint!“

“Fun indoor/outdoor dining environment and delicious food make for a nice night out!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Backyard Pizza is an amazing Muslim pizzeria in Brooklyn where all the food is 100% halal. The pizza is always fresh, crispy, and full of flavor with high-quality ingredients and generous portions. The staff is friendly, and the service is quick. It’s great to have a place you can fully trust and enjoy delicious halal pizza. Highly recommend! 🍕“

“Loved my meal here last week. They have real deal homemade Italian food from the burrata to the pizza and pastas.

Great spot for your next Italian date night or even a nice little event in their beautiful space I can see a nice work party or maybe a birthday party here, they have the best local prices for events with full bar and food options.

highly recommend getting those oysters and their Tre Pizzette appetizers, must try the penne a la vodka as well for sure“

“My husband and I absolutely love Rome to Brooklyn Pizza. They are fairly new to the Williamsburg neighborhood and we’re so glad we stumbled across them. We can wholeheartedly say they make the BEST pizza we have EVER had. We’ve also never see pizzas so beautiful. When you go in person and look at all of the pizza in the cases, you’ll see what I mean. You can tell they take their time crafting each one. The first time we went in, my husband and I were remarking how they looked like art. The owner, Chef Aurel, makes every customer feel welcome and really treats you like family. The genuine passion he has for quality pizza and caring for people through food is so evident. Whether we come in to pick up pizza or call to order delivery, we are always treated like valued customers. Also, they’ve recently started matching orders and will donate a pizza in your name to local hospitals to support the overworked medical staff during this coronavirus crisis. I participated on Friday and got a message from a nurse at the Wyckoff ER thanking me! I know this is a very long review, but I just want people to know how truly amazing this business is. It’s the kind of local business that you genuinely feel good about supporting. From the people who work here to the food that they make, they’re really something special.“

“Best Italian food & pizza in Brooklyn“

“The best in everything! The people and the food is 100/10. I always order the alfredo pasta with chicken cutlet and spaghetti and meatballs, I feel like they’re 100x more better than the fancy italian resto’s Ive been to before. White pizza and garlic knots are amazing and chicken ceasar salad too. Highly recommended for people visiting maspeth. The prices are fair and the serving is outstanding.“

“Food was great! And bonus, the husband/wife team at Concrete were so welcoming and made you feel like they had you over for dinner.“

“THE BEST PIZZA SLICES IN WILLIAMSBURG

Yes, as an Italian I can easily say that I think of no other place than Chiara's pizzeria. The melting cheese and juicy tomatoes sauce on a crunchy and soft dough are unmatched around here. On top of it, the team is warming and welcoming, ready to quench your pizza cravings“

“Great people nice customer service. Would come here from now on“

“Absofreakinlutely! Eh yo fuhgeddaboudit!“

“I cannot give this restaurant enough stars! Carmine is AMAZING amd so is his food, staff, and atmosphere! I would choose this place over and over again to eat and celebrate whether im by myself orhaving a party of 25 people with me. Impeccable food, wine, pizza, pasta, service....all of it! Thank you for making our 10 year wedding anniversary party a night to never forget!!!!!“

“The Best Pizza and Hero’s!! 👍🏻👍🏻“

“La Pizzeria & Bagel in Valley Stream is a fantastic neighborhood spot! Their bagels are fresh and perfectly bakek. The pizza is always tasty, and they also serve excellent pasta dishes and hearty, flavorful soups that are perfect for a cozy meal. The variety on the menu means there’s something for everyone. The staff is friendly, and service is consistently fast and welcoming. A great go-to for breakfast, lunch, or dinner!“

“One of my favorite places in the city for some proper Italian pizza pie. A nice neopolitan style thin crust, with fresh mozzarella and delicious marinara sauce. The atmosphere and service are excellent and this place has just gotten busier since it opened its doors a few years ago. It's in my neighborhood and go in for negroni sbagliato and pizza fix.“

“great selection. huge slices. yummy pizza. marinara is top notch“

“Great slice and service - I definitely recommend!“

“Went today with my boyfriend and it’s the perfect spot for a cozy date or hangout with friends! Pizza, wings, Caesar salad, and mozz sticks all truly delicious. Especially the vodka slice!! Music selection was great and I especially loved the noise level where you didn’t have to shout to hear the other person. Service was really friendly; the guys helping out today were so kind and quick! Will be back—so happy to have discovered this gem in our neighborhood :) also soft serve perfect“

“Wish i could give 7 star on service section!! Mr Raj and Mr Amit are two of the best staff I've ever met!!! Very friendly ane welcoming!!! Definitely recommend this place!!! Definitely Will come to this spot every week from now on!!! Forgot to mention that they also serve vegetarian and halal options!!!“

“This pizza was good, i almost wanted to slap somebody! My cousin just moved here from FLORIDA so he was on a misson to try pizza in every burro. And last weekend, brooklyn was up! Puerto Ricans everywhere! It was fun! We went into this one pizza spot on broadway, and i was like oh naaa.... yiu cant get it from here. The pizza just looked so dusty! We walked around the corner to this spot, La Pizzaria, and right off the back, the pizza on display looked like it just cane out of heaven, and the pepparoni pizza had sesame seeds on it. And thst was some odd shyt right there! But we got it anyways, and baby beeeee! Let me tell you something... we tasted something we nvr had before! I mean idk what thst was, but that wasnt no regular Pizza! We tore that pizza up! And then went back and ordered personal pans! And so did my friend! The next time i want pizza, we will be traveling back from CT (bc thats where we live, to brooklyn to get that pizza! Thank you!“

“There pizza is so yummy. my son and daughter love it very much.“
