37 Best Pizza Restaurants in Schenectady

“Since Lent starts this week, I'm looking forward to having the cod or the seafood sampler on Fridays. Enjoy.😋😋“

“We weekly orderfrom Inferno Pizza . Sometimes with very little heads up and it comes so quick! It’s always great tasting, and they have very kind and friendly people working there. The delivery driver today helped us via ring camera and went above and beyond. We will continue to use them regularly!“

“Visited during a getaway weekend upstate & had a delightful bite + evening. Tasty bites & good portions.

I see some reviews about the staff not being attentive but don’t believe it! We were well taken care of & received friendly service from all the staff we interacted with.“

“Good food , friendly workers , good prices“

“service was spot on and, appetizers were great. two out of 4 dinners were very good. My friend had clams and linguini, The clams still had sand in them so obviously not rinsed well. The person did end up getting sick unfortunately. The atmosphere is wonderful. Hopefully this was a one off and will have to try this place again.“

“Amazing food esp the potato wedges!!! Workers are so nice as well“

“Visited for the first time this evening and we will be back !! We ordered a large chicken parm pizza and 10 medium wings. The pizza crust was 🤌🧑‍🍳😘! Thin and crispy and absolutely perfect. The sauce is on the sweet side and although I personally prefer a savory sauce (where the garlic and oregano punches you in the face) it was still very good. The wings were delicious as well. Super meaty and crisp. Also I appreciate that the chicken was not drowning in sloppy sauce, rather just enough to provide a perfect balanced flavor. Excellent job! Excited to have you in Halfmoon and will definitely be returning. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“This is the best pizza in the the capital district - their white broccoli (aka the Gabby) is soooo good. The rest of the menu hits too! The desserts are phenomenal and the soups are perfect. Can’t beat Poppy’s!!!“

“This weekend was our first visit to Scotti's upon recommendation, but it certainly will not be our last!! Service was great (thanks Nicole), food was delicious, atmosphere was light and family-like. Always talk to the people you sit next to on an airplane!! You never know who you'll meet and become friends with!!“

“I love this place ! It’s heaven on earth ! The Mom and Daughter Chefs are warm and friendly . The food and desserts are filled with love ! I can’t wait to go back ! ❤️‍🔥 Thank you !“

“Tonight I ordered pizza from Pauly's. It was probably close to closing but they took my order for delivery. The pizza came so quickly. It was piping hot and delicious! And a very polite young man made the delivery
I will definitely be ordering again!!
Thank you Pauly's!!“

“Luca’s is a staple in our house when it comes to wanting chicken wings, juicy and plenty of sauce. You can tell the blue cheese is homemade and I love it, as someone who doesn't even eat blue cheese. The pizza is also pretty good (coming from a jersey pizza gal)! Strombolis are hefty and they never skimp on ingredients. Lastly, their chicken caesar wrap is beautifully made and a nice lower carb/calorie option.“

“Great food. Great prices. Nice environment, the guys working there take their time making your food as ordered and great to converse with while waiting for your food. I love the specialty pizza options...the deserts are great...lastly the Philly cheese steak is off the hook!“

“I’ve been going to pizza king since I can remember. I started going with my daughter who is now 32 was a baby & they were on State street. I followed him to Jay & it’s been years since I been there & stopped in today. The service is always great even though they don’t speak as fluent English as myself they still understand and are very efficient. The pizza was pretty much the same as it has always been which is GREAT ( I like my pizza a lil greasy so it was perfect) & the only thing I really didn’t like is the supply area where the napkins and lids and straws are kept. It was a bit dirty. I actually cleaned it up and wiped down the soda machine. ( I managed subway long ago & it’s a habit with ocd lol) and the tables weren’t wiped down when the customers that were in there left. They had a few customers but that’s stuff you have to keep up on. This isn’t to put them down at all but things have changed since John has passed def (my prayers to his family & friends & fellow patrons he was awesome). So get back to keeping supplies filled like straws of all sizes & napkins & wipe it down & no arguments from me and keep the bathrooms clean & with toilet paper too loll I’m sure it’s really rough in this location with all the transients however. Over all a 4 out of 5 stars and pizza is still great!!!“

“I’ve had their Pizza and Subs and both were delicious. High quality ingredients as well as very good service, definitely a go too when on Upper Union St“

“Wow! What a busy night! These should be nothing but compliments for the staff, in the front of the house, and behind the scenes. It seems the autumn light show down the road has had quite an impact. We went on a whim, disregarded the suggested reservations, but were able take seats right away at the end of the bar. Best of both worlds....A little bit of patio atmosphere and dining room comfort as the temperatures began to drop. And a glimpse at the extra hard work involved this evening. Praises to Jennifer as she greeted us, offered us something to drink, and advised us if we were ordering there would be an extended wait, (a large number of parties, and parties with a large number of people, seem to have arrived all at once). She said she would rather be up front with people than to have them disappointed with a wait. The expected delay was explained to every party that entered following us It was amazing to watch the coordinated efforts of the three waitresses working as a team. There was no time for idle chit chat while disregarding the needs of customers, but there was still time for smiles and laughter. Work behind the counter was fast, deliberate, efficient and the customers had no sense of stress or overwhelm. Each interaction I overheard was friendly and attentive. Another thing that I was impressed with, especially sitting at a bar, is that with an extended wait, those who were drinking, alcoholic beverages , were not pushed or encouraged to purchase more than usual to fill the time. Therefore the environment around us remained the same. Our meals came in the time projected, (mine a crock of french onion soup and my husband, a Roadhouse burger with onion rings.) Each item as tasty as we have come to expect. I just wanted to take a minute and thank everyone for an enjoyable evening.“

“Just went to grab lunch with colleagues and WOW!!!! I have been searching for a good sandwich joint for a while not with mostly misses on the hit and miss chart. Here we have a HIT in a big way. Fast service and everything freshly made. I went simple and was blown away. Turkey sub, Russian, LTO, and banana peppers and ABSOLUTELY delicious! Must visit for eat in or take out!“

“I repeatedly ask myself why this place isn't rated higher. You get fantastic pizza with so many different and creative toppings, pies or slices. Favorites are the buffalo chicken, broccoli and chicken, CBR, vodka sauce and more....

Also the best buffalo wings you can find in Schenectady. Everyone who works there is always friendly. They work extremely hard and efficiently to get you hot pizza on time. Go-to spot for 10 years now! During the warmer weather it's a nice low-key place to sit down and eat with family.

Call day ahead for holidays like Halloween, as they have been swamped and aren't able to pick up the phone.“

“Sally’s is our go to place for Sunday dinner! The pizza is phenomenal! Love the white broccoli and shrimp scampi pizzas but you can’t go wrong with a sausage and mushroom Sicilian either. Best pizza around in my opinion! The food is consistently delicious every week. The desserts are amazing as well. If I could give them 10 stars I would! 🤤“

“What a great place to have lunch on a cold winters day, Play by Play is a no jugement zone! hats off the owner and all of there help!“

“Hands down some of the best pizza I’ve had in my life. I just moved to Schenectady and have made it a habit to look for the best pizza places in every area I live and visit. This is probably the best pizza I’ve had in upstate NY so far. The wings… oh my god the wings are also to die for! The meat and the sauce just blend so well together. I had my first set of pizza and wings from Lily P’s a couple weeks ago and am now planning my third venture there… this time going to try the buffalo chicken pizza. Overall, I fed myself and my girlfriend for $30. The staff is great too!“

“Favorite pizza and Garlic knots!“

“Their calzones look as artisan as the pictures make them out to be and they taste as good as they look. Got a slice of cheesecake for the wife and she really enjoyed it. Lastly, I had a slice of cheese pizza to go that was pretty good. I'll update this when I get a whole pie and/or some wings.“

“very good food nice people love this place to eat“

“The best pizza in the area. The Gluten Free pizza was not only edible, but a normal size and absolutely delicious.“

“Very good food! Ordered pizza, quesadillas, subs. The pizza is one of the best in this area! Easy ordering online and fast delivery. Highly recommend!“

“Little Caesars on State Street in Schenectady New York is a really great place to go if you are looking for great pizza at affordable prices me and my family were able to get a few pies at a great price and able to walk in and walk out which is even better being that we're always in a rush and we have a lot to do so if you need to go see them they're located on State Street in Schenectady New York atmosphere is great people are very courtesy and they are very fast at what they do Thank you Little Caesar see you again

Parking: There are parking spaces but some are limits not a big parking lot but it's fast service so you're not waiting and there's not always a lot of weight for a spot

Kid-friendliness: Yes kid friendly very welcoming and very authentic they're very friendly with the kids which is awesome“

“if you're in the mood for some good bar vittles. this is the place! I've tried many dishes and appetizers on the menu! no complaints! the best food and atmosphere! and to mention great service on top of that all.“

“Best pizza around! Just try it and find out!“

“We ordered take out. The pizza was good light fluffy crust. The mild wings were good. The sauce is sweet and spicy. I personally like that.

Parking: They only have a few spots and being right on state street it can be hard to get in and out“

“I've been ordering from this pizzeria for quite some time, and they've consistently had great pizza and friendly service. This past Sunday, there was a misunderstanding with my order, and my cheese pizza was accidentally left off. Since my kid only eats cheese pizza, the owner immediately stepped in to make things right, even though they were closing.

He made we had a few slices of cheese pizza and even offered me a Chicken Bacon Ranch pizza at no charge, despite my offering to pay. That kind of customer service is rare these days and speaks volumes about how much they care about their customers.

The pizza was delicious as always, and their willingness to go above and beyond turned a simple mistake into a great customer experience. I'll definitely continue ordering from them and highly recommend them to anyone looking for great pizza and outstanding service.“

“Best pizza in town, hands down.“

“I grew up on this pizza and although my first slice when I came home wasn’t what I expected… I came back today and it was just as good as I remember it.

I have not lived here in many years but the first thing I do when I visit, before ANYTHING else, is to get a slice. My first slice was bland… as in the sauce had no flavor. 😳

I then had a slice the next day and it was excellent.

I grew up in Niskayuna and have vivid memories of the oregano-powered sauce.

The sauce I had on my first slice had maybe a hint of oregano but not that oregano-forward taste profile I do vividly remember from the 70’s, 80s and 90s and beyond. I have been back to NY 20 times since moving away and this is the first time I was left disappointed.

But the slice on day 2 was BACK to what I remembered.

The Sicilian crust was the same and still great!

Please Homestyle, keep that oregano-forward flavor that made your pizza taste distinctive and memorable.“

“Everything is always promptly ready, food is fresh and customer service is unmatched!“

“My pizza was AMAZING...I typically order from marinos pizza on state street but I had been busy ALL day and wanted delivery. This pizza was very comparable and it was delivered with love and still HOT...I've ordered delivery in the past, but NEVER met a delivery person sooooo greatful for the tip I gave. I will be checking out other items on their menu and WILL ONLY order from Empire Pizza before anyone else ever again. I hope their wings,subs, and Calzones are as awsome as this pizza was. I love you guys....see you probably tomorrow when my son comes to visit from vermont!!!“

“My son and I eat from here couple times a week the owner and whole crew awesome people...The Food never had no complaints food is always clean delicious and very good I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone ..Thank you union Pizza..“

“serving staff was excellent with kids' service. The space allowed for movement, standing. Tables are spread apart. Was comfortable and friendly. Pizza was very good, crispy pan crust.“
