    Lombardi's Pizza

    32 Spring Street, New York, NY 10012

    You can't talk NYC pizza without starting here. This spot claims to be the first pizzeria in the US, and their coal-fired crust is truly something special. Get the classic Margherita, you won't regret it.

    John's of Bleecker Street

    278 Bleecker St, New York, NY 10014

    Another OG, John's is famous for its coal-fired brick oven pies. No slices here, just whole pies, and it's worth it. The crust has that unique char and crunch that only a coal oven can deliver.

    Di Fara Pizza

    1424 Avenue J, Brooklyn, NY 11230

    A pilgrimage for serious pizza lovers. Dom DeMarco was a legend, crafting each pie with incredible care, snipping fresh basil right onto your slice. The wait can be long, but it's part of the experience.

    Prince Street Pizza

    27 Prince St, New York, NY 10012

    If you're into square slices, their Soho Square (pepperoni cup) is an absolute must-try. The crispy, thick crust and perfectly cupped pepperonis are addictive. Be ready for a line!

    Lucali

    575 Henry Street, Brooklyn, NY 11231
    lucali.com
    Hidden away in Carroll Gardens, this place is legendary for its thin-crust, brick oven pizzas and calzones. It's cash-only and often has a massive wait, but it's an unforgettable Brooklyn experience.

    Roberta's Pizza

    261 Moore St, Brooklyn, NY 11206
    robertaspizza.com
    Bringing a modern, wood-fired touch to the NYC pizza scene, Roberta's in Bushwick is a vibe. Their 'Famous Original' is a classic, but don't sleep on their other creative options.
  7. 7

    Paulie Gee's Slice Shop

    110 Franklin Street, Brooklyn, NY 11222
    pauliegee.com
    From the genius behind Paulie Gee's, this Greenpoint spot offers incredible New York-style slices and square pies. Their Hellboy slice with hot honey is a game-changer!
  8. 8

    Scarr's Pizza

    35 Orchard Street, New York, NY 10002
    scarrspizza.com
    Scarr's nails that old-school Lower East Side feel with a modern twist, even milling some of their own flour. Their classic slices are perfectly crispy and chewy, seriously good stuff.
  9. 9

    Rubirosa

    235 Mulberry St, New York, NY 10012
    rubirosanyc.com
    This Little Italy gem is known for its super thin-crust pizzas, especially the Tie-Dye pie with vodka, tomato, and pesto sauces. It's a fantastic spot for a sit-down pizza dinner.

    Speedy Romeo

    376 Classon Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11238
    speedyromeo.com
    For something a bit different, head to Speedy Romeo in Brooklyn. They use a wood-fired oven and have a unique St. Louis-inspired style with a thin, cracker-like crust. Try the 'St. Louie'.
  11. 11

    Motorino

    349 E 12th St, New York, NY 10003
    motorinopizza.com
    Motorino brings fantastic Neapolitan-style pizza to NYC. Their classic Margherita is spot-on, but their Brussels sprouts pizza is surprisingly delicious and a must-try for something adventurous.
