Pizza
Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.
Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.
Italian Cuisine
The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.
Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.
If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.

my first Boston pizza place I ever visited was NY Pizza! good memories of being totally wasted and hungry. Just make sure to bring cash! There's an ATM, but no one likes to wake up to surprise charges on their account. Every slice is bigger than your head and impossible to eat without folding it... which is the point. It's pretty greasy, but that's what parmesan cheese is for, right? conclusion: eat here to avoid a hangover tomorrow. It'll soak up all the alcohol in your body... of course that depends, huh?

Pizza is 3 star. Shrimp scampi is 1 star. The portion is huge. Taste is below average. Music is trance music. Staff is friendly.

No reviews for this location? I have a buddy who lives nearby and I always run over here to grab a slice or two if I'm hungry. They serve other things besides pizza (lasagna, sandwiches, etc.) but I stick with the pie. The slices are massive, biggest around. True New York style and I love the crust. My favorite is the buffalo chicken, but I also enjoy a simple cheese or pepperoni. The chicken and bacon is good, so is the pepper and onion. Extra star for letting a group of friends and I take over the small dining area a couple of years ago. It was during the Bruins Stanley Cup run, the cable was out at my friends' from a storm and that was the closest place we could watch the game. We weren't even ordering food and they shut off the music so we could listen to the TV. Always thought that was cool.
(4)Emily W.
This is my favorite pizza place in Boston, hands down. I also like pinocchio's pizza by harvard for a big thick slice, but this is my favorite for a normal, think crust. People said it's expensive?! I'm pretty sure a slice is still less than $2. It's perfect pizza. Huge, cheap, great crust. However, I went recently and had sub-par pizza because it tasted old. Next time I went I asked for whatever was just-made and I was back to my awesome NYPizza. It's a smallish place but I've always found a seat and (probably illegal) parking outside on Tremont.
(5)D M.
My favorite pizza ever! Been here many times and I always try to get a different kind of pizza. So far, they all have been great! The last one I had was the hamburger pizza with ground beef, fries and ketchup on it. I was hesitant at first but it was so good! They have giant slices so 1 is plenty for me. Limited seating in the evening/night but they don't have many to begin with. Also they have a $10 limit on credit cards. Surprise surprise in Boston. They toast up the slice when you order which makes the crust nice and crispy. Love this place!
(5)Simon I.
The only reason this review is getting the second star is because the pizza slices are alright when nothing else is around, although they are overpriced. Yesterday I was craving shrimp, so I went to closest place to where I lived that had some. Cost me over 13 bucks for a few shrimps with some nasty fries and a couple slices of diced cabbage in mayonnaise they called cole slaw. The shrimp was probably frozen for decades, and tasted like rubber that was laying on the bottom of the ocean since the sinking of Titanic. In fact, maybe the shrimp was brought on the Titanic to be served on the ship and went down with the ship, only to be caught and served at New York Pizza a century later. I had to throw it out, and had legitimately started to feel very nauseous and had a vile taste in my mouth. After drinking some pepto bismol and finding some other food, I finally returned to my normal self. Avoid when you can. NEVER ORDER SEAFOOD. Maybe for late night pizza, but even then Kappy's, University House of Pizza are both much better and in the area.
(2)Kimberly V.
Loveeeee New York Pizza, and not just for that late night drunk craving. You get huge slices for cheap and its much better than BHOP. I've had their fries and chicken tenders which also rock and friends love their Buff Chick tenders and pizza, but I can't personally comment because I am not a big fan of spicy foods. Yes, late night there are MANY college students and some local Roxburians but it makes for a great late night stop when not much else is open.
(4)David B.
For late night slice of pizza this is the only choice in this area of town. Parking can be a lost battle so expect to double park and run in for a slice. It's been a while since my last visit but I liked their chicken,rice and salad combo which was grilled chicken, rice pilaf and a salad with creamy dressing. I always felt less guilty with that choice rather than a couple of slices of pizza. Not sure on their prices now but they were not that expensive years ago.
(3)Jenna A.
This food hit the spot. My friends and I needed some sustenance before continuing the Sunday Funday in DT Boston! The employees were super cool and dealt with 19 crazy (and tipsy) rugby girls yelling and trying to figure out payment. The food was quick and greasy. We got whole pizzas, pizza slices, sandwiches, salads, fish, french fries, etc...I pretty much taste tested everyone's food and it was ALL good! Minus one star for no bathroom!
(4)Thomas G.
Absolutely horrible . Not very picky but they messed up my order seriously by putting all these things I didn't want on my food (allergy sensitive) and then to fix it, the cook disappeared Into the back room and returned with the food passing it off as fresh( the kitchen was in plain sight and he wasn't wearing gloves) . Honestly could have killed me , and definitely unsanitary . Then after refusing it I watched them sell it to another customer , definitely illegal . Soo gross . Cashier and cook disgust me . I'm surprised they have any good reviews at all, must have been lucky! Or everyone is too drunk to notice. Good luck eating here!
(1)Davis F.
New York pizza consistently serves up outrageously delicious slices of pizza at reasonable slices. The buffalo chicken pizza is spicy, creamy and probably has already taken five years off my lifespan due to its abundance of buffalo chicken and blue cheese. The only reason I'd give it four stars is that the actual physical size of the slices changes pretty wildly depending on the arbitrary cut of the pizza when you order it. Two pieces is always too much, but the size of the slice will change by a third on any given day. But, at the end of the day that's a bad thing because you always want more of the delicious New York Pizza, a South End institution right next to Wally's/
(4)Mcslimj B.
Stupid name, decent thin-crust pizza I actually get paid money by The Boston Phoenix and other local publications to uncover worthy budget-priced restaurants, but prejudice has occasionally kept me from trying certain places, notably New York Pizza in the South End. Despite living mere blocks away for a decade, I'd avoided it because a) the name reminded me of the Yankees, for whom this lifelong Sox fan holds a depthless loathing; b) I doubted it could recreate the pizza style about which Gothamites here are always bleating; and c) even if it were authentic, so what? New Yorkers yammer away with the same parochial argument everybody makes for the superiority of their hometown pizza, just more annoyingly. A well-executed Cincinnati pie still trumps a badly done New York pizza. Further, the so-called New York style was invented by the Neapolitans: cutting slices big enough to fold doesn't mean you can take credit for it. But after years of willful neglect, I finally gave New York Pizza a whirl -- and now regret not visiting sooner. Each slice ($2.50/cheese; $3.25/pepperoni) is a good quarter of a 14-inch pizza, and while it won't make anyone forget Cambridge's Trattoria Gran Gusto (whose owner actually hails from Naples), it's superior to many cheapie pizzas I've eaten elsewhere in Boston. It boasts a thin, hand-stretched crust cooked all the way through, good tomato sauce, not too much mozzarella, pepperoni that's greasy without puddling, and enough sturdiness to hold together when folded -- the only practical way to eat it. As at many Greek-American pizza joints, the menu at New York Pizza also features grinders, deep-fried foods (wings, seafood, fries, rings, Jamaican patties), kebabs, pastas, and salads, plus an array of hot breakfast options in the morning. Drinks and desserts are limited to bottled soft drinks and prepackaged ice cream treats. Most meals are taken to go; the few hard booth seats usually not the cleanest, not especially inviting. Will this pizza win prizes, or even the hearts of homesick Brooklynites? Perhaps not, but that wouldn't excuse my long-time judgment of this place, slice untasted, as fit only for a drunken late-night nosh. That's not only unfair to New York Pizza, but to anyone who loves finding good food in unpromising places. Lesson learned: if they ever open a Mass Registry of Motor Vehicles Hospitality Diner, I'll be first in line.
(3)Derrick C.
So I'm not sure if this place is related to the one on Tremont b/c they go by the same name but I've only been to this one when I'm sober and it's good! Nothing to it - just good New York style pizza w/ a crispy crust satisfies me!
(4)Jackie G.
Holy crap - I miss this place. Don't get me wrong; it's not fine dining or even "sort of" fine dining. It is not the type of place you want to spend hours (or over 15 minutes...). What is does have is some damn good pizza. And yes, I'll agree with other folks in saying that the slices are better when drunk.... but to this I counter: Aren't most things better when drunk? Bottom line: For consistently excellent (not gourmet, but still hella good), inexpensive pizza slices, head to NYC pizza. Also, if memory serves they do serve breakfast items which I recall as being decent (and super cheap) greasy spoon hangover cures.
(4)Aaron C.
Humongously Greasy pizzas that really fill you up and actually very tasty too. It's not the best pizza around, but it'll do if its 2am in the morning and you're sobering up. I ordered the bbq chicken pizza and it came to us quite quickly. But there wasn't as much topping as I hoped for and it was really greasy. The place was also crowded because everyone had the munchies so we had a rushed experience.
(3)Ligaya T.
Ahhh the Italians, clever bunch aren't they? Their cuisine offers far more permutations of tomato, cheese and semolina than I could possibly imagine! And the preparation is so simple their restaurants have likely the most ethnically diverse employees of the all. Quite remarkable, don't you think? I'm not sure where the guys behind the red counter hail from, but I'd bet it's not Italy. Yet they slide out surprisingly yummy, cheap pies. Slices will run from $2.50-$3.50 with staples of cheese and pepperoni, and always a spinach or tomato basil for us veggie lovers. There's plenty of bench seating but the most traffic is for pick-ups, or those who stagger in to fulfill those dull hunger pangs to negate a wicked night of binge drinking. Curiously, they serve brunch too. Bottom line, there's really only three reasons to go here: 1. hard up on cash or options 2. in the 'hood and need something quick 3. character watching For all else there's every other eatery in the city.
(3)Purvi R.
Late night goooood. Reminds me of pizza places back in NYC, although slightly less seedy if you can believe that. Thin crust that is probably better when drunk than sober...but good nonetheless. 'Nuff said.
(2)JT N.
I hate that this place is NOT CLEAN because they actually have good pizza and wings, But Honestly the cashier handles MONEY and FOOD its gross, he actually wears the rubber gloves BUT he handles the money and the food wearing the same gloves lol they just don't get it, when I explained that he took the dirty money from the register counted it wearing gloves then scooped up my slice wearing the same gloves he said WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT I'M WEARING GLOVES..lol Ughhh I tried to explain but he didn't get it so I declined my slice and left, they need a lesson on SANITATION and money handling.
(1)Ben G.
I used to eat at this place at least twice a month when I lived in Boston (South End/Back Bay) in the 90's, it has been around for a while. Recently moved back to the Boston area from Washington DC and rediscovered some of my old faves, this is definitely one of them. Thing that stands out most about New York Pizza is consistency. Whether you are going for lunch or for a late-night munchies run, it always hits the spot. Their slices are very good, generous size and not too much grease. What really stands out for me are their subs. My fave is the cheeseburger sub - don't ask me why its kind of a reflex order whenever I go here.
(3)Caroline A.
Hands down - one of the best cheap pizza's in Boston. This dive of a place has awesome thin crust. The sauce is just right, and the crust is nice and chewy. I could not leave Boston without indulging in a slice (ok, I had two). It's totally in a sketchy neighborhood, but if you're in the neighborhood, worth the trip.

Because the name's New York Pizza, i'm going to have to evaluate them on their pizza. Ok, so this summer I was working on the MassArt design-build for the Carter school around the block from this place, so naturally lunchtime took me here a couple of times. The pizza is okay right out of the oven, though there is a real imbalance in flavor which it took me a couple of times to analyze: it's the garlic powder. Waaay too much of it, this cheap garlic powder. And well, everything about this pizza is kind of cheap: the sauce, the flour... and while most pizza gets better in flavor overnight, this one somehow manages to become downright inedible. In many ways, you're better off with getting a digiorno (yeah, that frozen thing) from your local 24hr. CVS. I once also made the mistake of getting a pepperoni as they were closing at midnight or 1am or so (in desperation, needed pizza, pinocchio's in harvard was too far..) ..$20 and a stomachache later, I thought better of patronizing NYP (for pizza, at least) again..ever again... In all fairness, there is a plus here: their $1 coffee refills (you know, bring your thermos) are better than D-Ds across the street. That came in handy more than a few times this summer at 7.30am. But yeah, the pizza? Just don't do it. Especially late at night, when your stomach is begging you to give it a rest already !
(1)J W.
Highly recommend : Chicken parm sub Grilled chicken gyro Chicken broccoli ziti Do not recommend : Pizza I think the sauce tastes weird. Oddly enough, the sauce that they use for their pasta is delicious and would be perfect on the pizza. I have tried to bring this to their attention, to no avail. Anyway, they guys there are cool and hard workers and you get great portions for your money.
(4)Jeffrey H.
This could be very bad news...for my waistline. Starving for food after the party at Vinalia (where the appetizers were vomitrocious) I remembered the late night glow from the windows of New York Pizza. I ventured inside, where it appeared there were many others in my situation--craving late night grease. I ordered myself a chicken cutlet sub and onion rings. The chicken cutlet sub was nothing to brag about, but definitely hit the spot. They were generous with the chicken, which seemed a better quality than other sub places I've tried. The onion rings were FANTASTIC. They were gigantic and oh so tasty. I'm not sure I ate them so much as INHALED them. I love New York! I give four stars: *Onion Rings *Decent subs *They take credit cards *Late night hunger salvation
(4)Chelsea P.
This is NOT "NY Pizza"....besides the size & maybe, sorta the crust :) It def. wasn't terrible but they have no right to call it New York! Sorry, i'm a pizza snob ;)
(3)Joe M.
If you're hungry and it's late, this is a suitable place to go for Pizza. The slices are large and have an okay amount of cheese on them. The sauce is a combination of sweet and bland -- not too exciting, but then I prefer it to be spicier. One complaint I have is that they handle money with the same gloves that they use to handle food. Gloves are worn for sanitary reasons, they should take them off when handling any cash.
(2)Simona S.
It's not New York pizza. But you knew that already, didn't you? But uh, this place hits the spot... right after I get hit on without fail by the guys at the counter. I don't want to talk to you, I just want my grease and Diet Pepsi. Now leave me be. The slices are big, yes. But I like my slices big in general so don't judge me for getting two, ok? I've had the BBQ chicken but it was just okay. I drenched it in blue cheese and everything, but still... regular cheese is okay by me. Oh and don't be surprised if you run into a couple of crazies here. It happens. Crazy things happen on the corner of Mass Ave. and Columbus. Last time I was there a fight broke out outside among a group of nice looking Indian guys. One guy took responsibility and apologized for their shenanigans, but I don't think he really meant it. Clearly this was all enjoyable to watch while scarfing down a hot slice. Just go here. Especially when drunk. Even if you're not, they kind of expect you to be so... might as well show up trashed. I'm just sayin'
(4)E D.
The pizza is nothing spectacular (but I am a New Yorker and thus very critical of pizza), but it still hits the spots when you just want something quick and greasy. The slices are big and cheap. The service is fast, and if you become a regular...like I seem to be after a late night of work...they seem to serve you even faster. I usually stick with the old standbys of plain or pepperoni, but they do serve other toppings like spinach or tomato and basil All in all, a decent pizza joint that is fast, convenient, and cheap.
(4)Sadie L.
I bike past both NYP locations every night on my commute home, and am tempted to stop every time. I often do. This is by far my favorite pizza in the city - the slices are huge and delicious. But what really makes it is the crust. It's just doughy enough and kind of reminds me of a soft pretzel. They also remodeled the inside of this location less than a year ago, so it's a lot less sketchy looking than it used to be.
(5)Ryan D.
The slices are pretty good, but they are over three bucks... I don't know what everyone's talking about when they say this place is "cheap." Definitely not by my standards. Also, their chicken cutlets are awful. Never ever get a chicken parm or buffalo chicken sub. I highly recommend their eggplant parm sub. This is the saving grace of NY Pizza. Also, their breakfast is cheap and delicious but (obviously) a little rough on the arteries. Overall, the the low quality of the food doesn't match the slightly higher prices than a place like Cappy's or Joseph's in Jamaica Plain.
(2)Trip B.
No delivery unless you spend fifty dollars and often, I ain't that hungry.
(3)Maria S.
If a cheap, large greasy pizza is worth risking your life for, then I recommend it! (I once had to run into Dunkin Donuts across the street mid shooting while on my way to NYP). It's nothing spectacular, but $12 buys you a pizza that you literally have to tilt to get through your door. To be fair, it's good, but nothing gourmet and it's not, as it's name suggests, true to New York style. But they do open late and when you have a few drinks in you, nothing's better.
(3)Lily F.
As a native New Yorker I was shocked and horrified to first try Boston House of Pizza nearly three years ago...Ok, well maybe that's a little dramatic, but I don't know how that food passes for "pizza". I'm not into what seems to be "Boston style" pizza that has a really fluffly base/crust, hardly any sauce and a sprinkling of cheese. It just doesn't fly. NYP is quite the opposite: each slice is easily three portions of pizza (beware calorie counters!) has a floppy crust, tons of tangy sauce and a great amt of cheese. If you're a slice folder like me, you'll definitely love this place. And for $2.40 a slice you really can't go wrong. Their Jamaican beef patties are also good, though I'd choose a slice over them any day.
(3)Yianni G.
Best pizza in Boston. Hands down. And a block from my house! This is owned by the same NY Pizza on Tremont. The slices are HUGE!
(5)Nicole P.
I heart New York Pizza and not just because I am from New York! It's still a Boston Pizzeria because when I order a "pepperoni pie" I get giggles- sorry I mean a pepperoni pizza! I used to live across the street from NY Pizza (it's in the south end not roxbury) and would regularly stumble over drunk for a slice. The pizza is floppy in traditional Ny style and the slices are a generous size and a good price. The staff is really nice and they still remember me when I swing by [beam] The breakfast is also really good, surprising I know. The egg and cheese on an english muffin is great! I would hit Dunkin for coffee though. I miss you New York Pizza!
(5)Lala L.
The best place to get a slice of pizza. Huge New York style slices for under $2, except there's only plain cheese or pepperoni. The pizza is thin, crispy, piping hot, w/just the "right amount of cheese/sauce combo". I wouldn't buy a whole pie though, cuz it just ain't the same. For some strange reason, they don't make it the same, I think it has to do with the extra cheese they pile on. I've gotten so many friends hooked on this place. Trust me, I'm the pizza queen, I've eaten at alot of pizza places, and this is one of the better ones. (for a slice, that is) Also, once in a while, you won't get that super good slice....there must be another person here who makes the pizza, cuz it can be a bit thicker and not as crispy on the bottom. Perhaps I shoulda asked them to pop it in the oven for a bit.
(3)Peter R.
Well coming from the NJ/NY area i am very critical of any place which dares incorporates NY into the name.... Well the pizza is ehh ok i guess... they do have the whole NY idea that the proper way to eat a slice is by folding it... (a plus) The slices are large with plenty of sauce and cheese... the only problem is that despite the size of the slices they are rather floppy and thin.. (its more like they just stretch out the dough more) But the pizza overall is ok... i've eaten the "wing ding diner" chicken wings with french fries not a bad deal overall... The atmosphere is kinda lack luster... and during rainy days the roof starts to leak (kinda funny in my book) but like i said im over critical of any place which dares put New York in the name especially when in Boston...
(2)Ian D.
Top pizza in Boston. "In Boston" is an important qualifier. In many ways, as a roommate once said, "everyone from Maine is a State Champion" in something. Take the time to flip the slice over, careful with the cheese! Notice the slight browning and hints of pepper. That's pizza. That doughy ring at the edge? Crust. See how it extends above the tomato sauce? All pizza should have this important element. You are sure to have the same counter help every time you visit, as the hard workers here never take a day off. For those who love the NY, is the Theater District location as good? For you actual NYers who poo-poo the pizza in Boston- you're right; it stinks here. Now get me a cup of clam chowder sucka. Oh? What is this red sauce? Manhattan "style?" Please.
(5)Jamie S.
Huge, greasy, cheap, late-night pizza. Sometimes that's exactly what you need... this place is where you want to go to get it.
(3)Kimberly P.
Best pizza I've had in Boston so far. Hands down. Granted I've only been here a few months but I was seriously lamenting the lack of delicious 'za until I stumbled across NY Pizza after a night at Wally's. I had a slice (HUMONGOUS) of white pizza with tomato and basil (?). YUM! Plus it was great that the guy at the counter was so animated and friendly. I'd come back just to see him and his bubbly personality. I just wish it was closer to my house so I could order in on lazy days such as this one!
(5)Dragony F.
400m dash to the Symphony bus stop, get set and go on the green light! Me and a gigantic, piping hot pizza slice flopping around on a flimsy paper plate that serves as the only barrier between skin and burning crust/melted cheese VS. the intermittent and unreliable late-night #1 bus cruising up Mass Ave Who wins the sprint between man-pizza and bus with only a minor burn, surprisingly very little mess on shirt or pants and the jealous look of hungry co-passengers? Me and my slightly deformed, now folded-in-half slice Slice of pepperoni pizza ($3): Huge, basically a quarter of New York style (duh) pizza served burning hot to order, classic droopy, saggy crust topped with a thin layer of thick tomato paste-y sauce, a sheet of average tasting cheese and a handful of spicy pepperoni, the surprising lack of greasiness is perfect if you need a meal to go while strolling or madly running to catch a bus without an oily disaster Service at 11:30pm, pretty cheery, not much of the pizza parlor 'tude typical of many places
(3)Steve S.
No dress code for this place. You buy a couple of slices for $2 a pop and you can be sober and still enjoy it. Special note for dieters: They serve a massive slice, but it is only 1 slice, so you can feel good knowing that you have eaten only a slice or two Unless of course, you have preceded this by drinking a few beers
(4)Nathan M.
The enormous slices of pizza for $2.70 are awesome. It's like getting half of a normal sized pizza for under $3. Just great. If you want food quick then stick to the available pizza slices, but the meatball sub i had there was fantastic. I'm definitely a meatball sub connoisseur, and this was the best so far in Boston. The steak and cheese was also solid. Bring cash if you plan on spending less than $10.
(5)chip h.
I miss this place soooo much! I used to live about five buildings down from this place and it is definately the best pizza in town. Lil Stevies is not even close. The bbq chicken or steak pizza is my favorite and the slices are huge. This is a great place to hit up after a night of drinking or just for carry-out. I live in New York now and with the exception of Lombardis, NY Pizza is the best Ive ever had!
(5)Rhiannon L.
nasty, greasy (in the bad way), gluey slices. not even drunk, not even at 2 am. take the 60 second walk up columbus to mangia for a good slice.
(1)Nick M.
Best Boston pizza by far, which is not saying much. I live right next door to New York Pizza and I am still not sick of it. The renovations are great and make it a much nicer place to hangout and eat a slice. They also have great pasta specials. Slightly more expensive to similar places nearby such as Good Eats.
(4)michael m.
Best of what I like to call "greasy pizza". Hot, piping pizza, leaking greased all over your hands, topped with pepperoni -- yum! If you're in the area and thinking of going to BHOP or Cappy's -- it's a sacrilege. This place is cheap and good, and the guys behind the counter are great to talk to. If you're extra hungry, the the extra-large pizza. A lot more pizza for a little more cash.
(4)Sean L.
If you think Little Stevies is good, try this place out. I personally like it better simply because the dough is never UNCOOKED here. Seriously though, I am from the NJ/NYC area, I hate most of the pizza in Boston and this place is an exception. Check it out if places like BHOP and UHOP make you want to die. It's also a KEY late night stop.
(4)Kevin C.
Used to love this place for lunch. Not since they reopened. The staff have all the personality of a dead cat. The slices are ice cold in the middle, and the sodas are lukewarm. To make it a perfect experience, there was a surly guy sitting at one of the tables CUTTING HIS FINGERNAILS while I was trying to eat the last time I went there. And it will be the LAST time, for sure.
(1)Geoff T.
Is it the best? No. But as People have pointed out, it's open late and much like Redneck's Roast Beef in Allston, this is the place you stagger into after a night of beating up your liver to quell those drunk munchies. That two dollar in change you have left in your pocket after paying for drinks all night with be more than ample to get yourself a huge satifying slice of okay pizza that becomes great with a buzz on. For a little bit more you can get pepperoni or mushroom. I have never ordered a sub there, mostly because my wallet is pretty lean whenever I am there...

BEST pizza-by-the-slice in the south end! This is the place to go for pizza between 6pm and 1am on a saturday night, but be forwarned - they close when they run out of pizza, and this often happens before 1am (every once in awhile they stay open a bit past closing time if they have extra pies) but regardless the pizza here is GREAT. Check out some jazz at Wally's - right down the road, and then head over to New York pizza to finish the night off with a couple of slices of $2/slice pizza.
(5)J B.
You'll always see an interesting crowd on this corner of Mass and Columbus but Ruth S is right, in a neighborhood that is sorely lacking for good 'za by the slice, New York Pizza is a welcome spot. Good wings too.
(3)Dan O.
Good, solid pizza, served really fast....went perfect with my cans of Miller High Life!!!!! Late hours are a huge bonus.
(3)Meagan K.
I would pretty much give New York Pizza two stars except for the fact that it is open late and the pizza slices are HUGE. They are about two bucks apiece and I only need to buy one to be full. The only problem is that I don't like the pizza. Too greasy and just bleh. But if you are not sober and its late at night, this place is a good option.
(3)Gabe M.
If you want a nice greasy dripping slice of pizza, this is the place to visit. They have a huge menu of other stuff, but I don't know how often people order something other than pizza. Their slices are huge (NY style) and cheap. The service is very rushed, and they expect for you to bark out your order and have your cash waving when its your turn in line. I guess trying to recreate the NY vibe or something.
(3)Nadia K.
Note- this is only for the pizza, the menu has a ton of other stuff. I had a pizza craving last night, nothing fancy, just for a simple slice of warm cheese pizza with a nice sauce and crust with corn meal on the bottom (traditional NYC style thin crust). So I finally went to New York Pizza which is just up the block from me. Disappointing. Not only was the crust burnt on the bottom but it soggy in parts and lacked that crispy cornmeal bottom and slightly soft layer next to the sauce. Crust makes a pizza. I lived in NYC last year and any pizza joint that claimed to have NYC style pizza knew this fact, and knew it well. The cheese was lacking as well in amount (but I'm a huge cheese fan) and it was over cooked and dried. Clearly the pizza had been sitting in the oven for too long and the counter for too long- rather rare for cheese pizza on a friday night. I also feel that $2.70 for a slice of cheese is over priced- in NYC they are at the most $2.50 for take out and no drink. The sauce needed oregano badly. I wont be going back here, upper crust the other way down my street is going to be my next pizza craving stop.
(1)Anne F.
This place gives you great bang for your buck. One slice of New York Pizza equals two average slices elsewhere, and I've always gotten fresh slices -- never one that's been sitting around for hours and hastily reheated. Best of all, the ingredients are yummy -- the pizza has a lovely crisp crust, you can see that the sauce came from real tomatoes, and the cheese is not as processed as most. Whenever I get a craving, I go here.
(4)Tim N.
A solid 3 stars for Boston, but does not compare to true NYC pizza. My rating fluctuates between 3 and 3.5 stars depending on how many beers I have in me. If it stayed open until 3:00am instead of 1:00 I'd give it another 1/2 star.
(3)Columbia W.
Good pizza my friends. And fairly cheap. If you're standing in front of BHOP for some reason, walk down Huntington to Mass Ave., take a right and walk to the corner of Columbus.
(4)R.G. W.
My favorite slices here are the Tomato Basil. But they run out quick, so be sure to ask!
(3)Alex G.
Good pizza by the slice, if you're one of those people who can only eat pizza from new york, this is probably the best place for it.
(4)Dylan C.
Awesome place to go for late night pizza. Mostly because, even if you're not intoxicated, this is still good pizza. Although, I've heard it's not authentic New York pizza... Oh well, I don't really care, it still tastes good.
(4)Atrebor B.
NY Pizza is the sister shop to NY Pizza 2 on Tremont street and I much prefer this location; having tried both. The tables here seem cleaner and the interior is roomier. The cheese slices here are gargantuan (equivalent to the span of my collarbone) and only $2.25. Big, floppy, and flexible; the slices are pliable enough to withstand the signature New Yorker's fold'em in half habit before consumption. In terms of taste, the pizza was decent and reasonably tasty despite my stone cold sober state and perpetual sense of heightened awareness. In other words; you don't necessarily have to be intoxicated in order to enjoy the slices; and that's a good thing. The pepperoni slice is 50 cents more, and the "special of the day" slice is $3. They also serve breakfast and a whole slew of other items, such as gyros and sandwiches. The staff are friendly and polite; thanking me "very much" despite my petty patronage of $2.25.
(3)So S.
Everyone tells me this the best pizza, but I am just not convinced. Sure, its cheap. For $2, you get a big slice. Its open really late too. But the best is really stretching it.
(3)Kristen G.
NY Pizza is cheap and the pizza is the best I've had in it's specific area. They've got real, New York style slices as well as many other menu options. There's nothing special about the restaurant itself, and there are sometimes some sketchy characters in there, but it's pretty good food.
(4)Lacey P.
Yum. You get practically half a pizza for like 2 bucks and it's open late. I can't believe I didn't discover it sooner.
(5)Aaron S.
Their pizza is just okay. But the slices are large, and after a night drinking next door at Wally's, you'll think it is the best in the Boston.
(3)kristyn m.
The best wings i have had in the area. I remember one night in a snow storm, me and some friends were hungry and they were the only place open. That was the first night we went, and then we were hooked.
(5)Ellie L.
as long as you're not a true new yorker, this place is great: cheap, quick, and host to a crowd of wacky folk that's hilarious to eavesdrop on until late in the night (for boston standards, anyway). while i prickle at the name, i've got to concede that for location, price, and sheer entertainment factor, ny pizza isn't half bad.
(3)Julia H.
NYP is a thoroughly satisfying pizza experience. We like to come here after going out drinking on our way home. The slices are MASSIVE and so delicious, from the variety of toppings to the plethora of cheese to the tasty sauce to the chewy sweet dough. Service is always friendly and fast (which is great when you are dying for that slice at 1 in the morning) and I thoroughly look forward to getting a slice here every once in a while.
(5)Ryan R.
Went here to grab a slice of pizza after a night out. It was pretty late (after 1am), but thankfully they were still open. We went right to the counter and were walking out with hot slices of pizza in under a minute. The slice of pizza is pretty large and quite good for what it is. The crust is actually very good and the rest of the toppings are decent as well. What I like about this place is that they just serve you lukewarm pizza, rather than putting it in the over for a couple minutes--which to me just makes it too hot and oily to eat. Overall, no frills here but a great spot to get a late night bite.
(3)Harry H.
I was told over the phone a small sandwich was 14" long. Popped a half chub and ordered a chicken parmesan sub. When it came it was ONLY 10" (damn right i measured) and soggy. I honestly feel like a blind person could have cooked it better. My friend ordered the steak and cheese sub. They FORGOT the cheese and the meat "tastes like traysh". My stomach doesn't feel so good anymore. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else.
(2)Steven S.
The food is good but the location feels dangerous. My friends call this place the "stab and slice" because you may get stabbed looking for a slice of pizza. Hahaha But for real the pizza is OK. Not worth a special trip but if your hungry and already passing by grab a slice.
(2)Ethan S.
I've gotten pizza before and it's been fine. Abnormally huge slices great for when you're drunk, etc. Had my first chicken parm grinder from here today and can say that I'll never go back. Was almost not edible, could not even bite into multiple pieces of chicken. Definitely don't trust it anymore.
(2)Nick L.
The biggest slice in Boston for under $5. And absolutely DELICIOUS crust too! Went to see Blue Man Group and they suggested this joint for our college budget and our hungry stomachs.
(5)Nehali S.
Ok, so for just a little under ten bucks I got this wicked awesome chicken penne pasta in huge quantities! It was hot, fresh, cheesy, and really satisfied the pasta craving I had been having all week. They give you so much that I know I can squeeze two more meals out of my leftovers. I also love that they already give it to you in a foil box with a lid to make it easier to pack up when you're finished instead of you having to transfer it into a to-go box yourself. Oh, and they gave me plates/forks and garlic bread in my bag, which I totally was not expecting!! :)
(5)Tim T.
The pizzas were great. They have a minimum of $10 for credit cards
(5)Ann S.
Disappointing. I had been looking forward to trying a steak and cheese sub from this spot and finally made the trip only to be dissatisfied. I ordered a steak and cheese sub with onions cooked in the meat, bread toasted, mayo, lettuce, pickles and hots. However, I could barely taste the garnishes. The meat was bland and the presentation overall was lacking specific to my order. Won't be going back anytime soon or more like at all. #foodcravingsunfulfilled
(2)Patrick A.
Pizza was undercooked with the dough being visibly raw. Would not order again from here.
(1)Drew F.
Slices are huge! Dough is nice and light and very tasty. I went for the BBQ chicken slice with French fries on it. Delicious and nutritious. Cost of food very fair for quality and speed of service. Great variety of slices available.
(5)Clark G.
shouldnt be called new york pizza as that's a laugher and injustice to the state of new york and their reputation for pies these slices are huge yes they are but the sauce cheese and doughy crust downright disgusting the dollar slices all around nyc puts these slices to shame if ya must ya must
(2)Di B.
Probably the best chicken greek salad and pizza I have ever had. If you are a fan of doughy crust/pizza check this place out. They have an ecclectic variety and their slices are huge.
(5)Aj T.
Best place to eat late night pizza. Huge pizza slices and good taste. Just a few minutes walk from Northeastern / Berklee / Mass Ave / Symphony. They only accept card over $10.
(4)Kate L.
I ordered a $4.50 slice of pizza. Ignoring the fact that the price is already too expensive, NYP would only accept a $10 credit card minimum...after they had already placed my slice in the oven and I had waited in line. I told them I didn't have any cash, and they said "too bad, we don't need you as a customer anyway." Wow-- good to know.
(1)Steve L.
Exhibit six in "Everything tastes good with Alcohol." I wonder if anyone has actually stopped by NY Pizza completely sober in the middle of the afternoon. I haven't. There are better pizzas in the city, and better pizzas within the surrounding *three blocks* (see Mangia Neapolitian), but it's the only show in town after midnight. And they deliver the goods, with plentiful tectonic-sized sheets of hot, greasy pizza. Stay simple with toppings and increase the chance of getting a freshly-cooked slice - though the reheated specimens are okay as well. And don't forget to dump a tower of grated cheese (to call it parmesan would be generous) and oregano. No, they don't serve booze.
(3)Mike C.
Aight....mega slices of pizza.Fast. Pretty tasty...what else you want? I would not say it's the best...but it works.
(4)Daniel I.
Surprised at the lower reviews. This place has a decent variety of slices and great portion sizes. Boston is pretty much junk for pizza but this spot is def worth a shot.
(4)K. Brooke Z.
First off, I'll say I probably failed at ordering. However, if you put something on your menu-you should be able to make it well, regardless if it's your signature dish or not. I ordered the scallops. Essentially, they tasted like tater tots. Inside the fried outer shell the scallops had shrunk so much that there was a centimeter or two gap between the food and the fry. The portion was good, more than enough really, but the dish was totally meh. Definitely frozen, which is to be expected when you're not a seafood based restaurant, but I think it was fried first and just refried to thaw it. I guess stick with the pizza, but no real surprise there.
(2)Rachel A.
Literally some of the worst food I've ever had. I may cross the street before passing by in the future, just to keep enough distance. The pizza was disgusting. The garlic bread was a mushy mess. And, worst of all, I took one bite of the cannoli and actually spit it out!! It is very hard to make a cannoli so bad that it's inedible! #neveragain
(1)Jessica B.
Horrible bland food. No seasoning on anything. No utensils or napkins as I had specifically requested.
(1)Rebecca C.
Ordered here and wow what a full disappointment. So I ordered from foodler and everything was written out. Well the Mac n cheese was forgotten as well as the soda and the wings I ordered had no buffalo sauce despite they were supposed to be mild. I called them and told them the problem which they said they would be right over with the things that were missing. Of course 40 mins later, There was no buffalo sauce for the chicken and the sweet and sour sauce I got expired in April. I used to go here and be unimpressed but now after everything... I'm fully all set and won't be ordering here again. The driver was polite and apologetic but this experience has me all set. I would not recommend this place ever.
(1)Michael S.
Terrible pizza, poor service. Grilled chicken on the Caesar was good. I think this place is one way Boston puts one over on unsuspecting New Yorkers. The pizza here is not even close to good, traditional NY pizza. NY should sue. :)
(1)Bobby D.
Better than you would expect from the outside. Quick pizza, fantastic crust, okay sauce.
(4)Chris F.
It is what it is. I actually tend to stay away from the pizza options. They don't look that appetizing to me sitting in the case. Except maybe for a slice of cheese every once in a while, which is pretty hard to screw up. The pasta dinners are something of a mess. Gobs of pasta swimming in garlic and cheese, then cooked with another layer of cheese and sprinkled with even more of the powdery stuff. It could feed a family. And do a number on their cholesterol. But you're not worried about that if you're coming here. The subs are solid and good-sized. I've gotten various parms (eggplant, chicken, veal) and got what I expected. I always wonder who order desserts in a pizza parlor. Turns out it's me. The bread pudding was disgusting. The rice pudding has always been really good, nice and creamy. The cake options have been hit-or-miss for me. Probably depends on how long they've been there. But every once in a while I'm pleasantly surprised.
(2)Julia F.
If you are looking for a slice that is about the size of half a normal pizza, this is a good place to go. If there is a lot of construction going on down Tremont or Columbus and you can't find much in the way of parking - this is the place to go. If you are STARVING and have about $3, this is the place to go. It almost hurt for me to eat the whole slice of pizza. It is so big that it's hard to hold on to, greasy enough that you need something under the two plates they are served with to grab up all the oil. This would be a prime location for drunk eats. I sadly, never seem to find myself hungry and drunk in this area. Two slices fit in a regular size pizza box. Come hungry, leave wishing you hadn't ordered and tried to eat both slices.
(3)Michael R.
Pretty solid, most of the time. Big, foldable slices with a slightly crispy crust. NYP has a pretty extensive menu, and is absolutely clutch around 2am. Since Cappy's closed down, this is the best pizza spot on NU's campus. Just be wary though, some nights, NYP can be very questionable. One one of my more recent visits, my 'roni slice had a strange tang to it -- like the cheese had gone bad, or that the pizza had been left out for 6+ hours. Sloshed and starving, I still ate it, but not without grimacing the whole time. Also, word to the wise: watch out for the locals, and I don't mean drunk freshmen. The corner of Columbus Ave and Mass Ave isn't the most friendly of neighborhoods late at night.
(3)Adeline M.
I haven't eaten here in years, but it is in a spot convenient to weary people, in the middle of Mass. Ave, so you can quickly grab a slice on the way by. I would say the pizza is only average tasting at best, unless they recently improved it. I would still eat there if I got desperate, though.
(2)Eric B.
They raised their prices by a quarter, AGAIN!! Listen, there are limits to taking advantage of drunk people when they're hungry. And $4.50 for a single specialty slice of pizza crosses the line. When I first came to Boston five years ago, a specialty slice was $3.25. I would rather crawl across the T tracks, get my legs run over/sliced off by the green line and go to BHOP before I spend almost $5 for a single dry, mediocre slice of lukewarm "pizza." (Too drastic? Oh well, I'm THAT pissed.) NYP, not a single one of the five people in my apartment is willing to ever eat here again. Nice knowing you.
(1)Tim K.
A poor experience when purchasing should have been my first sign. I grabbed my slices and was accused of not paying. I was not given a receipt - did I need one when there were just 2 people waiting? - I had to prove I paid by showing the 60 cents in change I was given. So yeah, I should have known. I was impressed by the large size and housed them pretty quickly. However, my 2 slices of pepperoni at lunch are still sitting there, in my belly, at 10:45 at night. Ugh. Avoid.
(1)Jackie D.
Oh man. This place is good. (Note: I'm from Jersey and have exceedingly high standards for pizza.) I passed by this place while walking to a friend's apartment. My first thought: "'New York pizza'? Seriously?" I'd seen what Boston had to offer in the way of "pizza" and had been wholly unimpressed. I peeked in the window to see what kind of abomination was masquerading as the almighty NY slice, and truthfully, it looked legit -- but looks can be deceiving. Then I checked the yelp reviews and they seemed decent, so I decided to try it on my way back. BLOWN AWAY, I tell you. Ok, the service was very average and no one had any personality - whatever. Honestly, they could've personally insulted me or even made a "yo mama" joke and I would still give them 5 stars. They're that good. The pizza was right out of the oven, so the cheese was all melty. The sauce was perfect. The crust was great. The seasoning was on point. The grease was minimal. The slice was huge. This is GOOD pizza. The best I've had in Boston, hands down. You could've told me I was eating a slice on the boardwalk of Seaside Heights with sand in my bathing suit and I probably would've believed you. Keep doing you, New York Pizza.
(5)Julia K.
Pretty solid pizza place. Their "battered eggplant" grinder is actually an eggplant parmesan and it's done really well, cheesy enough, not too greasy or salty or anything. Loads of different types of pizza ready relatively quickly. The tiramisu seemed a little dry, like it might have been hanging around a while, but whatever. Plus: they're open until 2 AM on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights. Nice little seating area, too.
(4)Chris M.
Talk about giving credit where credit is due! You know a place is good when before you even start eating it, you want to write a review. Delivery was on time, food was PLENTIFUL. I got the Loaded Cheese Fries, and i maybe ate 1/5 before giving up (and they were only $6) I also got the Sirloin Tip sub, which i could barely eat half. Couldn't have had a better experience. Thanks guys
(5)Michael M.
Dudes are jerks. I order a pizza I thought was fetta and tomato but it was some other type of cheese on it. The guy that worked there condescendingly asked someone he worked with to heat up the pizza I asked for well telling them to put a different one which had fetta cheese on it in the oven to heat it up. He was talking directly about me in his native language and acted smug when he spoke english. I think the one I wanted was Matorella Cheese and tomato, but he gave me fetta and broccoli because I said fetta and tomato. I don't make pizza a$$ hole, but I do write reviews. I don't do business with jerks and you shouldn't either. Pizza was ok at best.
(1)Caryn H.
Always a good choice when I don't know what else to get. Wish they would have mushroom/pepperoni pizza handy though. Since they only use fresh mushrooms they are never willing to throw some on an already cooked pepperoni slice. Maybe they could consider using canned mushrooms for emergency pep/mush lovers like me? The buffalo wings here are pretty good
(4)Sharon C.
The slices of pizza here are MASSIVE. The day I moved to Boston from Brooklyn, I arrived close to 11pm on a Thursday night, and I was very happy that a restaurant near my new apartment was still open. I thought that Boston had a reputation for shutting down early, so this was a huge relief. The pizza was the perfect antidote to my awful hunger from driving close to 5 hours in traffic from NYC to Boston, but it's definitely the kind of food I'd reserve for dire situations. The size of the slices is great, but the sauce is oddly sweet and has too much oregano. Major pro about this place is that it's open until 2am on the weekends to feed all the wastoids from the bar.
(3)Chris M.
Great pizza or "pie". The pizza has a light, flaky crust. The crust is a little greasy, but this seems appropriate for NY "pie". The crust is thin, but it's not the thinnest. This NY Pizza is located on the outskirts of Boston's South End.
(5)Kelly B.
I am not kidding the most disgusting inedible pizza I have ever had. LEGIT grossed me out. I ordered a pepperoni pizza and by the time I got home they were all in the middle of the pizza I had to rearrange the pizza and re-cook it in the oven so I could at least take a bite. The dough tasted like card board, and the sauce was repulsive. The only circumstance I would ever eat at this place is if I got dropped off from being on Survivor and hadn't eaten in 2 months. STAY AWAY
(1)Jennifer W.
Disgusting. And this is coming from a girl who used to eat chicken salad sandwiches from rural gas stations. The first time I went to this place, I ordered the buff chicken pizza. Usually the pizza is cold and they put it in the oven to heat it up until the cheese gets all gooey again. Right? This pizza cheese was still hard as though it had been in the fridge overnight. I asked them if they could put it in the oven longer to melt the cheese and it still didn't do the trick. Okay...not that big of a deal. But gross. THE SECOND TIME, however....it was late. I had been drinking. All I wanted was pizza. I would have eaten anything. I ordered some type of margarita sicilian square. Well...I'm eating it in the cab and I'm noticing it's almost impossible to hold with one hand. A small square of pizza! Every time I pick it up it takes the most flaccid shape imaginable. So I'm eating and thinking about how soft and gooey it is..."hmm...I guess it's just really cheesy." OH NO. Finally my drunk ass realizes that it's not gooey cheese. It's RAW DOUGH. I am eating raw dough. The very bottom of the dough was cooked but everything hiding under the cheese was just icky sticky floury raw dough. Vom. Never again New York Pizza. Never again. Copious amounts of alcohol could not even hide the atrocity.
(1)Olayemi A.
Pizza slices are huge and delicious for a good price. Fries are standard. Can't really speak on their subs or any of their other menu items, should try more of their other stuff.... There's just one staff member there I don't care for that's rude and makes me feel a little uncomfortable. There's another employee there who's really nice/funny though and gave me a free drink since we're both African lol (He's Egyptian, I'm Nigerian) so points for that. $7 card minimum is annoying for debit card swipe addicts like myself but it's not a huge deal.
(3)Cici B.
Way better than the one on Tremont street-that one gets no stars. When this place is busy, don't bother the quality goes down. Besides that it is okay.
(3)Mike L.
3 stars by day - 5 stars by night. At a normal hour without tasty adult beverages already in you, the pizza, calzones, and other options are solid. It's not going to wow you but you won't leave disappointed either. So if your are looking for tasty pizza mid day, I'd walk a bit and hit up upper crust. Now if you are on your way back from a night on the town, this place gets 5 stars. I've had a lot of other late night pizzas in the area and for some reason this pizza is the best as a night cap. Make sure to make it in before doors close (some time between 1:30 and 2am) and you will be happy with your choice. The folks that work there are cool and you along with several other folks will be crushing some late night pie. There is always a good crowd but it isn't one of those places where you will have to wait 20 people deep for a slice. All in all, this place is worth it for you to check out and judge yourself.
(4)Daniel R.
YES! Fenway-Kenmore is NOT known for its pizza. Actually, New York Pizza is more Roxbury/South End, so go figure. But I had spent a lot of time in Fenway-Kenmore and I've always settled for "edible" pizza, because sincerely good pizza didn't seem to exist. Well no more! New York Pizza is actually good. I can't believe people eat at BHOP when they could be eating here. This is so much better in every conceivable way. Of course it doesn't compare to real pizza from NYC, but I really don't care. I'll settle for this. It's the closest thing you can get short of a four hour bus ride to Manhattan. Honestly the fries didn't impress me but I won't let that affect my judgment of this place at all. I just won't order fries next time.
(4)Scott B.
This review is specific to breakfast. First of all, I found it amazing that a pizza joint would serve breakfast. I soon learned, that I had nothing to be excited about. You get what you pay for, I hear often, and at NY Pizza, this is totally true. $3.99 for the breakfast special. It is described as follows: "2 eggs, homefries, toast, and choice of bacon, sausage, or ham steak." this is what you get: a plain one egg omelette saturated in grissle, topped with three strips of overcooked bacon, parbaked potatoes that are just that... parbaked... like they forgot to actually cook them after parbaking them cold and coated in paprika, and wheat toast with no butter. so... for $3.99.... i guess that's what you get. Funny, I can get two eggs, toast, homefries, and bacon at another restaurant for the same price. And I get a server. And it is actually good. I promise that I will never get breakfast from NY Pizza again.
(2)Jason B.
Let's get one thing clear. This review is for the quality of the drunk food this place offers. This is not a place to take a date. This is not a place to pop in for a meal before symphony. This is not a place to linger over a conversation while sipping your root beer. This is a stumble-in-and-make-sure-your-pants-are-still-on, work-your-mouth-a-couple-of-times-to-make-sure-Âyou-can-still-speak, stumble-out-with-a-slice-you-inhale-for-the-last-Âfew-blocks-to-your-house kinda place. The pizza is a decent neapolitan: a mega-slice, with hot melty cheese and a slightly crispy crust. So effing good when you just finished getting wasted at the Columbus Cafe on absinthe. Not sure I've ever eaten here when that (or something similar) wasn't the case.
(4)Brittany E.
Mediocre pizza with large portions. It's obnoxious to make pizza $2.75 a slice and have a $10.00 credit card minimum.If you want anything that is not pizza (such as from the grill or sometimes even french fries) get ready to wait!!
(2)Nick B.
Food is great, service is fast and the people are nice!
(5)B B.
In no way, shape or form is this "authentic ny pizza". The crust tastes like it came from a pillsbury can and the cheese/sauce ratio is all wrong, waaaay too much cheese. And it was a little pricey to boot. I won't be back unless I am absolutely desperate...
(2)Jamie R.
I lived across the street from New York Pizza for a few months, and it became one of my go-to late night choices. I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of food. Pretty good menu, I've had everything from the pizza, seafood, wings, and have really always enjoyed it. I was a little underwhelmed with the subs I've had both times, but I'm not really a sub guy anyway. I do agree that the service staff is similar to children of the corn, but since I'm just doing take away it didn't really effect my experience.
(4)
