50 Best Pizza Restaurants in Staten Island

“Best pizza on island“

“I had a birthday party for my daughter here. In all we were about 20 guests. Kim and husband created a special menu for the occasion. It was absolutely amazing! Everyone raved about how delicious everything was. We had cold antipasto, rice balls, eggplant rollatini, calamari, chicken wings and pizza. There was so much food! I highly recommend Ungaro for any occasion or just dinner which is how I came about going there in the first place. Thank you again for a wonderful, memorable occasion!“

“I had such a great experience here. I haven’t been in years since moving, but we decided to stop in after visiting family, and I’m so glad we did. John was our server, and he was awesome—super friendly and very personable. He checked on us just enough without hovering and gave us great recommendations.
I really missed coming here. It felt so nice to just sit, relax, and not feel rushed while enjoying our food. The clam pie was amazing, and the buffalo calamari was just as good. Parking is still terrible (it took us over 20 minutes to find a spot), but honestly, it was worth the hassle and wait for a table. Overall, great food and great service. If you go, definitely ask for John!“

“They have vegan cheese which, for someone with alpha-gal syndrome is a huge plus. The grilled octopus appetizer was delicious with the roasted peppers, olives and arugula-salad greens with a balsamic vinegar drizzle. The service was impeccable: we sat at the bar but servers and the bartender were very attentive, polite, and efficient. The food was delicious and quickly served given the busy Friday night. My only criticism is that they still use plastic straws instead of alternatives, like Phade or (a lesser favorite) paper straws.“

“Everything was great at even greater prices for the quality of food and service you receive here“

“We are visiting the city for a girls trip. We rode the Staten Island Ferry to get a good view of the Statue of Liberty. Instead of turning right around we decided to have lunch on Staten Island. We wanted to go to Nonna’s (from the movie) but it was sold out. We wandered back toward the ferry and discovered MVP Pizza that said local favorite in the window. It was quiet so they had room for six of us. Sergio was a great host and cook. He told us he had a limited menu but then made us two great pies. No artichokes so he suggested mushrooms as a pairing which was delicious. It was a great experience all around- we could chat and spend time while indulging in perfect NY pizza! Please try it you won’t be sorry!
PS. If you like the T-shirts we got them from Brown Dog Ink on Etsy.“

“Giuliano’s Restaurant is a place where the food is absolutely fantastic. I’ve never ordered something that I didn’t love. The staff are all wonderful. From the first time you walk-in the doors they make you feel like you’re part of their family. I highly highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Absolutely wonderful in every way! Delicious homemade food, incredible service and a beautiful room!! Will definitely be back!“

“Angelica and the staff at Palermo are truly top notch! The food is beyond and the service is exceptional. We catered my daughter’s graduation party and my guests could not stop raving about the food! When we met with Angelica to order she was gracious, knowledgeable and totally on-point with the amount we needed. She is wonderful!!! Eat at Palermo!!!“

“Wonderful service and excellent food!! Will definitely return!“

“Consistently delicious food. Nothing ever disappoints. They cook the old fashioned way with no shortcuts or cheap ingredients. Highly recommend!“

“Great food and service. .we went with a group of 10 people and everyone enjoyed their food .we been back many times and even had them do a party for us :)“

“Visited alone to try the pizza and watch some of the Jets game - the former was delicious and the latter disheartening. My fellow diners and the bartender were all remarkably welcoming of a non-islander and even gave me a free Jets x Captain Morgan can which I used as a cup for a year. They might have handed that out just because they didn't want to associate with the Jets anymore. Who knows.“

“Pizza, Beers always cold, Service always amazing and no one does it better than Jimmy, does so much for community and i love giving back to Jimmy!! everyone is treated like family !!“

“Casa Ninos Delicious $10 Lunch Special and Excellent Serving By Sergio. Would definitely recommend“

“Great grandma slice. Excellent decor friendly staff. Clean, well kept place next to a well known barbershop. Highly recommend this place“

“This place is an absolute gem! The pizzas here are next level — easily some of the best I’ve ever had. The Spinach Ricotta White Pie was out of this world: perfectly creamy, loaded with flavor, and the crust had that perfect balance of crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. Then the Pepperoni and Hot Honey Pie… unbelievable. The spicy kick from the pepperoni mixed with the sweetness of the honey made for the perfect combo — I couldn’t stop eating it. On top of that, the service was quick and friendly, and the whole place has such a welcoming vibe. If you’re a pizza lover, do yourself a favor and check this spot out.“

“The menu provided a ton of interesting choices. All 4 of us were very happy with the entrees. The Cavetelli sicialano was delicious and the Veal Milanese was very tender and tasty. I was expecting pizzeria quality food and was surprised the high end quality. Will definitely go back, and highly recommend.“

“Crispy Pizza should be your GO TO place in Randall Manor. They have some good pizza as well as delicious dinner options. Their portions are good and out of the hundreds of times I’ve ordered from here, I’ve never had a bad meal. Their dinner plates are my fav - Lasagna , Spaghetti Bolognese, Chicken franchese are my favorites from here! Their tomato base sauce is delicious!“

“A&S is delicious. It is always ready on time. Everyone who works there is so nice.“

“Despite the name being Tony's, the owner is Angelo. He runs a tight ship and is VERY customer friendly. I have been going there for probably 25 years. It's a go to destination if you're in the Clifton/Rosebank area. 5+ stars.“

“Buffalo chicken, vodka pies are amazing!!“

“I recently ordered from Domenico's Pizzeria and was seriously impressed. The pizza was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. I had the margherita and garlic knots, both were delicious. The crust was crispy, the sauce was rich, and everything tasted homemade. Staff were polite and the service was fast. Easily one of the best local pizza spots around. I’ll be back! 🍕“

“horrible food fried shrimp is over cooked and rubbery pizza. regular pie is nasty.“

“Ordered for the first time tonight! Person on the phone who took my order was so friendly. I ordered 2 chicken Marsala heroes. The chicken was chopped in strips and was juicy and cooked perfectly. Marsala sauce was incredible, bread was soft and fresh! Even the delivery guy was a doll! Definitely ordering again soon 🤗“

“What started as a random walk-in when we first moved to Tottenville to chat about our cars with the owners and chatting for an hour without even knowing each other turned into a neighborhood staple for us. An amazing family owned restaurant with the kindest owners and the best food!! My family and I always order from them, our favorite local spot and we are so thankful for their kindness that they not only show to us but for the kindness that Victor shows to my two pups who mean the world to me. Our pups will occasionally walk us to Towne Deli, knowing that Victor will come outside and greet them with a smile on his face and cheese in his hand, the warmth and kindness is unmatched and does not go unnoticed. We are so happy to support a family owned small business as everyone should and will continue to do so! Thank you to Victor and his family for your dedication to bringing great food & connection to our community :)“

“Just want to say thank you pronto and Mike the manager i had a credit on my account due to a mix up on a busy Friday nite where I got somebody else's order and they got mine I called up and Mike had sent over grilled chicken caesar salad within 10 minutes and apologize for the mix-up he was so nice and thoughtful“

“I order pizza once a week. My girls love the grill and Fried Chicken sandwiches. The worker are very nice and friendly. Great place to sit down and enjoy a slice of pizza.“

“Whoever says you can't eat pizza every day clearly never tried pronto pizza. These specialty slices were phenomenal and there was a good selection. We never got bored of the food because they have so many different specialty slices. Prontos top quality made us confident in trying new things and slices I wouldnt try elsewhere. The staff was warm and welcoming. This place immediately became the regular lunch spot for us and a favorite of those I introduced to it.“

“I tried the round pie yesterday, we were on that side of the island, after reading all the reviews we tried 4 different slices, all were delicious, love the crispy crust, we are now going to go again tonight to pick up a few pies?!! Wish you guys would open up on the south shore PLEASE ❤️❤️❤️“

“Best pizza on Staten Island 😁“

“Love this place. Great service and staff and even better food! The ambiance is nostalgic and maintains that classic “pizza joint” ambiance to complete the experience.

I also want to make a note that the 5th star is for the way they don’t put up with any nonsense from anyone, or subscribe to the outdated “the customer is always right” bologna. They keep it real, a rare quality in modern times. Can’t wait until my next visit!“
