Nothing special here, flavors were good. My only issue was the rather light and bland crust. It had no character and did not taste like typical NY pizza.

Walked by here a few times in my travels. Decided to stop in and pick up some pizza for dinner. Got 2 slices of regular and 2 garlic knots $9.00. Everything was delicious! Definitely going back!

I visited this location in mid-September. As soon as we walked into the restaurant we were greeted by the staff. The service was really fast and the food was absolutely delicious. We ordered a plain slice of pizza, garlic knots, and a chicken a broccoli slice of pizza. The garlic knots were so delicious we ordered some to go to enjoy later. Every location I’ve been to has had great pizza. Try them you won’t be disappointed. The restaurant accepts cash or card. They are also accessible via public transportation.

I love this neighborhood place! Whatever I've ordered here has always been delicious. Whether it's pizza or a hero sandwich, the food is always hot, flavorful, and top notch. Also, the service has always been very efficient. It's relatively small in size, but if there ever was trouble with seating, I'd simply order takeout. I've been eating their food for years and can't remember ever being disappointed, not even once!

Great Garlic knots and Pepperoni Stromboli. The cheese pull was incredible the sauce was just right and the knots were cooked to perfection and covered in garlic butter. Staff was friendly and very active making sure everything was perfect.

I ordered a personal pizza with mushrooms and broccoli and a chicken salad. I liked that all ingredients tasted fresh and the mushrooms were not marinated or burnt. Hunger was satisfied and I didn't feel overstuffed. Thanks!

Took my 2nd trip to NYC and had lunch here before an appointment with MSK. This is without a doubt the best pizza I've ever had. Garlic knots were excellent too. I don't know if I'll get back up there anytime in the future, but I will definitely eat here again if I do.
