Pizza in New York

9 places for Pizza in New York, picked by creators — with what they said.

• Prince Street Pizza — ur mom ashley, Beatrice Richer
  She recommended it as a top New York pizza spot, saying its popularity is well-earned.
  Heads up: She doesn't personally enjoy pizza, so this isn't a firsthand assessment.
• Joe's Pizza — Beatrice Richer, Jon Barr
  Greasy with cheese that stretches for days—exactly the New York slice they'd always imagined—and gave it a perfect 10.
  Heads up: The line is very long, and there are definitely tastier slices to be found elsewhere in New York.
• Luigi's Pizza — National Geographic
  Praised the Sicilian slice as fluffy rather than chewy with a crispy bottom and a perfect ratio of tomato sauce to cheese, and said the thin New York slice was equally 'overwhelming' — 'both are amazing.'
• Lil' Frankie's — Munchies
  The spaghetti limone is 'ridiculously' good and the burrata is so good it practically melts, praised as something special about New York that this quality is available even late at night.
  Heads up: Open until 2am on weekdays and 4am on weekends, so check closing times.
• Lucali — TOPJAW
  Raved about the ultra-thin yet crisp, structured dough, and the tender meatballs made from brisket, short rib, and spicy sausage.
  Heads up: Only 10 tables, no reservations — you line up to put your name down and get a assigned time. BYOB.
• Rubirosa — Beatrice Richer
  Loved the atmosphere and the cozy little bar, and said the pasta was excellent.
  Heads up: The pasta portion was a bit small, and they deeply regretted not ordering the restaurant's famous tie-dye pizza.
• Juliana’s — Jon Barr
  The original coal-oven pizza famously made by Patsy Grimaldi is excellent, and the classic Margherita is so good you don't even need to add toppings. A great choice for a group lunch or dinner.
  Heads up: There's usually a line, and you can only order whole pies, not slices—pies start at $26, which is a lot if you're not that hungry.
• Best Pizza — TOPJAW
  Praised for making their own mozzarella to control salt and moisture, and for baking unusually large pies for a slice shop in a wood-fired oven.
• Bleecker Street Pizza — Jon Barr
  Recommended over Joe's for a slice in Greenwich Village.
