50 Best Pizza Restaurants near Rockaway Park

“One of the biggest likes I have with this place is the phone service . The girl that answers every time is beyond respectful and sweet. She was patient with all my questions and with me not making up my mind. The establishment is also well kept and cleaned anytime I’ve been in there. The Buffalo slice is to die for I need the recipes !“

“The best food in Rockaway.“

“My son took me here for a birthday dinner after hanging at Rockaway Beach. This was one of the best Italian restaurants I’ve ever been to. The pasta is homemade and delicious. I had a ravioli dish that was finished off with heating in their brick oven. I’d like to rate this restaurant 10 stars!!!!“

“This is the best pizza I have ever had, nice crisp, light crust with just the right amount of toppings, no grease at all. I live in CT and thought no pizza was better than our New Haven ones, boy was I wrong!!! Looking forward to returning……soon!“

“We dropped by Ace's Pizza around 3pm., Brooklyn, 30 Rockefeller Plaza, 5th Ave NYC and it was such a great experience! The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating—amazing service all around. We ordered the Grilled Chicken Sandwich, Caesar Salad, and a 14-inch Pepperoni Pizza. Every single item was delicious! The quality of the food was outstanding. The pepperoni pizza especially stood out—crispy crust, flavorful toppings, and just the right amount of cheese. We really enjoyed everything we ordered, and the overall vibe of the place made the experience even better. Highly recommended if you’re in the area and craving great pizza!“

“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“

“Not enough words to describe how much I love this place.

It is consistently delicious. I will always start off with a Bruschetta or Raddichio Caesar and it hits every time. The pizzas are fantastic and they always have some funky flavor pairings that are surprisingly tasty. There is hardly a wait except on super busy nights (and then barely a wait at all) and the atmosphere is vibey. I have brought many friends and the reviews are always the same: amazing.

I’d recommend this as a great neighborhood spot any day.“

“One word DIABLO !!!🙏❤️ Frost Beer was ice cold !!!“

“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.“

“I can’t leave anything but five stars for this restaurant. Melissa, the manager, did her best to accommodate our needs and deliver our food, no matter that the administration changed the policy, which is very unfortunate. Thanks to Melissa. We’re staying with Avenue Pizza because our delivery issue was resolved in an instant. I highly appreciate the management service, however, the boss needs to get a car for the delivery guy. I deeply love this place, and I would regret to stop buying your pizza. So please, bring back deliveries!“

“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 phenomenal Thor pizza is out of this world with outstanding selection of specialty slices

The staff is very outgoing and engaging

You would be hard pressed to find a better slice and atmosphere“

“This Italian gem delivers on all fronts. Located in a stunning brick greenhouse-y kind of space, the atmosphere is pretty magical. The food is wonderful, the cocktails divine, and the staff are all the best. A must-visit for ambiance and delicious food and drinks!“

“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.“

“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!!!“

“Delicious authentic pizza!“

“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.“

“Just came back from Mother's Day Brunch with my sons and husband. Food was excellent as was the service! Beet salad was so good, burgers cooked to perfection, shakshuka with merguez sausage was delicious, the white truffles pizza with poached eggs was amazing!! Thank you Wild for a 100% gluten free restaurant with 100% great food!“

“Hands down , the greatest pizza spot in all of NYC and Long Island. Every single slice is better then the next. Staff is always great , place is extremely clean , and the food is absolutely astonishing ! If you don’t know , ya better find out about Fini 🤙🏼“

“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.“

“WOW, WOW, WOW! I know that Michelin has their three stars, well I give Wheated my three wows for the triple wow experience I had there last night. Every person serving us was exceedingly talented at what they did and extremely personal in the way they treated us. Every moment, even in the waiting, was a beautiful experience; and the food and cocktails went far beyond our expectations, every ingredient, every morsal curated for the best possible taste, texture, and consistency. I say WOW, WOW, WOW!“

“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.“

“really excellent pizza and dessert“

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

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

“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!“

“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. ❤️“

“The restaurant looked okay, a little dingy and small, but this was some of the best pizza I’ve ever had! Definitely try the white pizza with honey and cheese. The pepperoni and sausage was good, too. The pepperonis were crispy and savory. The pizza crust was sublime—perfectly crispy and thin. Service was good!“

“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!“

“Been there couple of times and burger is mind-blowing. Pizza also ok.“

“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“

“Close to home & good & reasonable..“

“If you have a gluten and dairy allergy and you really want a pizza that tastes like the real deal, Austin Street Pizza is the place to go. They have by far the absoultr best gluten free, vegan pizzas. They do not have one of those really thin gluten free crust, you actually get a real crust. A call in is required if you are ordering to go, the online menu does not give you the option to customize the pizza.“

“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!“

“I HAVE BEEN WANTING BAKE ZITI W/SAUSAGE NOW FOR A WHILE SO I ASKED MY BOSS ABOUT THE NAME OF THE PIZZERIA HE GAVE ME BEFORE I CALLED AND PLACE MY ORDER MUST SAY IT TOOK LESS THEN 30 MINUTE TO GET TO ME IT WAS NICE AND HOT AND TASTY SO WERE THE GARLIC KNOTS ROCKY YOU MADE MY DAY THANK YOU OH AND I CAN'T FORGET THE YOUNG MAN WHO DELIVERED MY ORDER VERY NICE ONE MORE THING IF THE RESTURANT IS ANYTHING LIKE THE DELIVERY SERVICE MY HAT IS OFF TO YOU LOVE THE FOOD“

“We tried two of your Frozen pizzas we picked up at ShopRite. They were so delicious and we are fans. Just wanted to reach out and let you know how much we love your product. The sauce is amazing, basil makes it so tasty, and cheese was fresh and crust had a nice crisp bottom.“

“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“

“eally enjoyed the pizza and it was just as good the next morning with the slices we took home!“

“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.“
