Answer 3

I have sampled all the places considered "best pizza" in NYC.

I would have to say my favorites are:

1. John's of Bleecker St - Greenwich Village (278 Bleecker St btw Jones and Morton) The classic NY Style thin crust. crust is near perfect, and the cheese isn't too salty, and the sauce is a little sweet. I would recommend getting no toppings to let the ingredients shine.

2. Lombardi's - Little Italy/Nolita - 32 Spring St @ Mott - Similar to John's, but topped with fresh mozz and basil.

3. DiFara - Midwood Brooklyn - Rivals john's, but it might be quite a treck for you since it's pretty far out in brooklyn

4. Artichoke basille's pizza on 14th St - This place has been taking the east village by storm since it opened about 6 months ago. It doesn't keep normal hours (it is often closed at primetime hours due to the owners living in staten island and being lazy) Their regular slices are above average, but the star is definately their artichoke slice, which is a huge white pizza slice, with alot of spinach, cheese and artichokes!!! It may sound weird, but must be tried at least once.

5. Fornino - I'm biased, since this is in my neighborhood of Williamsburg, Brooklyn - Named best pizza in NYC by Citysearch in 07 (so i'm not totally off base) Good crust, and interesting toppings ( i had a pizza called the Al Roker which had a bunch of great toppings on it, that surprisingly went well) Conveniently located off the Bedford L stop, they have a spacious outdoor patio in the back.

Overrated places -

1. Grimaldi's - Right over the Brooklyn Bridge in Brooklyn Heights/Dumbo - Tourists line up and wait for an hour to sample this tastless, salty thin crust pizza.

2. Patsy's - all overrated, and i've been sick at more than one. The entrees are decent, but kind of expensive for what you get.

3. Totonno's - could be great - but the crust is often burnt. To be fair, I only sampled the one on the UES, and not the original in Coney Island.

4. Ray's - most people who say "ray's" is the best just say that because they heard it mentoined somewhere, and aren't even aware where the original is located (it's on Prince St people) If you're in that neck of the woods, might as well go to Lombardi's (see above)

Answer 4

Some really good answers on here, most of what I think qualifies as good pizza has already been mentioned:

Lombardi's

Grimaldi's

Totonno's

DiFara's.

You guys left out L&B Spumoni Gardens on 86th Street in Brooklyn.

Answer 6

New York as in Manhattan, or anywhere in the boroughs?

In Manhattan:

Lombardi's

John's

Brooklyn (the best):

Totonno's on Neptune Avenue

Patsy's on Fulton Street

DiFara's if you like pizza with a tangier taste (from romano cheese)

Franny's on Flatbush Ave. (expensive but phenomenal)

Answer 7
