After having some of the best New York style pizzas, this was my all time favorite pizza. Thin crusty sourdough with the perfect ratio of dough to toppings.
My fav: pepperoni dipped in their killer ranch sauce & the potato pizza
I would give the pizza a 7/10 for this style. The pizza was slightly too thin (when it too thin the pizza becomes a chip) & part of the pizza was too thin
The sauces are great definitely get the ranch (10/10) for it.
The crust of the pizza makes you taste the sourdough which was the highlight for me .
Got 3 slices (spinach, Rosa & cheese)
1- spinach topping & slice was really good 8/10
2- cheese was a disappointment for being too thin & sauce was the Savior (6.5/10)
3- Rosa was really good but again the spice was to thin & burnt on the middle so (7/10)
If you are looking for a quick, budget-friendly bite to eat & have some time to spare, this place might just do the trick, but it is definitely a mixed bag. Let's start with the food itself. The pizza here is perfectly fine; it is genuinely good, but it is certainly not'out of this world' or anything that will completely blow your mind. The standout option is definitely the spinach slice, which has a really nice flavor profile, but overall, we are talking about a pretty standard, decent pizza. That being said, you really cannot complain about the value. At just six bucks a slice, it is an absolute steal for a quick meal. Just keep in mind that a single slice won't quite cut it if you are actually hungry, so you will definitely need to order a minimum of two slices to walk away feeling satisfied.
However, while the price & the food are totally acceptable, the actual experience of getting your food & trying to eat it there is a completely different story. The wait time here is frankly terrible. Because the venue is so popular for its low prices, the lineup is consistently huge, & you have to be prepared to give it anywhere from 30 minutes to a full hour-averaging right around 45 minutes-just to finally get served. It requires a massive amount of patience just to get your hands on a couple of slices.
Once you finally do get your food, the seating situation presents another major downside. While it is technically possible to sit down inside, it is honestly not a great option at all. The dining area is incredibly crowded, tightly packed, & the tables & seating arrangement are just not comfortable or inviting. It is a very tight squeeze, & there is absolutely no ambiance or comfort to enjoy. Because of this, it is definitely not the kind of establishment where you would want to sit down, relax, & enjoy a casual meal with friends.
Ultimately, this spot is an excellent, highly affordable option for a fast bite if you are in a rush & planning to take your food to go. But if you are looking for a comfortable dine-in experience where you can sit back & enjoy your evening without waiting an hour in a massive crowd, you should probably look elsewhere
This is by far the best pizza in the city. I've gone to very high end pizza restaurants & this surpasses it by a mile. The chef is a genius with the dough. Keep up the good work & I'll be back soon.
Did take-away. We oredered during rush hour but the place was VERY warm. Took about 25
-30 waiting in line. Pizza toppings was good but the base is too thin. Wasn't a big fan of the texture of their sourdough.
Good pizza but crazy expensive prices, it's not even justified at this point. Prices start from $38 !!!!! Let that sink in!
Had the mushroom pizza loved the ingredients & how it was made with sourdough 👌🏽lovely spot atmosphere, beautiful design & location! Highly recommend
