They have a special going on right now, I can't help but think this may be the best value in the city: $1.50 for a slice of cheese.




I have eaten them 5 times ..

in my opinion the pizza is among the best ...

if you want to eat a good Italian restaurant, you can go from:

CAMPAGNOLA RESTAURANT (212) 861-1102

1382 1ST Ave
New York, NY 10021


the owner Salvatore Lombardi is one of my friends ... maybe if it shows me name you have a small touch on the price ...

I will be sure to try Campagnola on Salvatore's suggestion.

Chicago pizza is disgusting. They love to hijack something great and turn it into something gross and put their name before it. New York style pizza is far superior but there is so much garbage to sift through in the city. It seems like if you stop into 20 "pizzerias" 19 of them are going to be awful. The best NY style pizza I have had has been in NJ by a long shot.

I have had some horrible pizza in CT at some place called "Modern Pizza" What a joke.


I dont understand why people complicate something so simple and destroy it.

I have yet to try Chicago Pizza. As a longtime resident of New York City, our tradition of pizza has lost its luster. Little Italy keeps losing its real estate to Big China Town.

One Bright Spot. Try this place:
Una Pizza Napoletana.

The only problem is a 12 inch pizza costs $21. They take cash only. It's the closests to eating pizza in Naples, Italy. Cash Only. Wine is $10 a glass. 30 minute wait to get your pizza- so I hope you aren't

NY pizzas are pretty cheap downtown
