Best meatball subs. The slice of pizza I tried was yummy. Tiramisu in individual serving cups was yummy. Canoli was rich and yummy.
So yeah. Absolutely worth the visit - at least to have a meatball sub.
This restaurant has gotten a lot of high remarks and it is well deserved. The staff is also great. But I will be honest to say that the pizza doesn't totally blow me away. I only say this because thin crust pizza is my favorite and in this category, I've just had better. Just as a point of reference, the type of flavor and crust texture that I really like is similar to the pizza from Grimaldi's in Brooklyn. If you happen to have the same taste preference as I do, I would recommend Emilia's Pizzeria in Berkeley which just opened up. The owner actually used to work at Grimaldi's in Hoboken and his pizza is awesome.
However, the atmosphere of the restaurant definitely sets it apart. I love the decor of the place, and seeing images of the twin towers still give me goose bumps. It makes the restaurant feel... genuine.
I've been here twice in the last week and I can't seem to get enough.
On our first visit (this week), the bf and I just ordered by the slice and ate outside. When you eat at Slice of New York, the patio seating is the best because JJ's Blues is right next door. You get semi-live music and amazing pizza.
For the first round I got standard pepperoni and he got pepperoni mushroom. When they heat the slice for you, the crust gets perfectly crispy on the bottom. We went in for round two and both got a margherita slice. Simply delicious.
On the second visit this week I ended up ordering a whole pepperoni pie. It didn't have far to travel but I think the cardboard somehow de-crispifies the crust. The pizza is still incredible, but the order-in crispiness disappears.
Also, one very very EXTREMELY important item to note is that when you go, you should be REQUIRED to order the cannoli. The pastry shell blows me away every time with its cinnamon and vanilla flavors. The actual filling is creamy and comes loaded with melty chocolate chips. They top it off with powdered sugar and I think, perhaps, even a mixture of crack/heaven?
So, another thing, I'm not going to knock 'em for trying to expand their menu, but the new tiramisu cups are no where near as good as their cannoli. Maybe, instead of new desserts, they should just go for new flavors of cannoli filling. I would totally go for a tiramisu-flavored cannoli filling. Hmm...
Sorry to be a debbie downer, but maybe I got the wrong kind of pizza but there were too many toppings and not enough crust (chicken pesto). I guess I need to stop trying to order things people recommend, and stick to my classic cheese, olives, and mushroom pizza. Damn it I did it again! well whatever, I can order it by the slice here if I ever really want them to redeem themselves. It's like 1 minute away from the row, so it is easy for me to go there. Also their garlic knots were tasty, but I wished I got them fresh out of their case instead of preordering it to go. The fresh ones were big and fluffy, and my pre ordered ones were tiny, and over cooked :(
and they ran out of drakes cakes! I didn't even get my Seinfeld moment :( wtf! but I am not discouraged yet, but it might take a while for me to recover from my bad pizza moment :(
i loved their pizza...this place reminded me of fat slice in berkeley. thanks to this cute couple that are members from 24....they recommended me this pizza joint...now im a fan of it. YUM YUM
I do tend to go for the "safe" pepperoni but it is probably one of the best pepperoni pizza's I've ever had. We just had their pizza for the first time a few weeks ago and it's already becoming a weekly family favorite.
It's really only for take-out since their location doesn't have room for sit-down dining but I don't personally see that as detracting from the food. It's wonderful to put in an order, pick it up (in about 20-25 minutes from what we've seen so far) and bring it home for a delicious meal in the comfort of home. :)
Oh, and the employees have all been friendly and professional (and always very busy). Highly recommended for your next pizza night!
Hands down the best NY pizza in San Jose (so far, but I don't think I have to keep looking)!!!
A slice of pepperoni and a slice of pepperoni mush. Beats Pizza My Heart any day of the week except Monday since they're closed, but I'd rather wait for Tuesday to come.
I'm usually not fan of the thin-crust. I like my pizza FULL of everything deep dish style and if possible, the thickest crust... Until I came here.
Hands down, the best thin crust pizza's I've ever had. Now I've never been to NY so I have no say in how an authentic NY pizza should taste like. But I gotta give this place two thumbs up.
I walked in an ordered a Large with half sausage/cheese and half pepperoni. The dude making the pizza (red hair) was super cool down to earth kind of guy. He even gave me some 'samples' while I was waiting for my order. Man they were good and full of flavor.
I also ordered "garlic knots". which I thought was good also. Like Garlic snowballs, dip them bad boys in that sauce and you're good to go!
I can see how parking can be close to impossible but I got a spot right in front. Worth parking around the corner if you have to. Definitely a fan. (Pix included)
Sorry Amici's, you may be close by in San Mateo, but I've finally found better so I'm leaving you and your overpriced NY pizza impersonation. A Slice of NY has sliced its way into my top 2 of Bay Area pizza, behind San Remo's in San Carlos.
I like my pizza to be gigantic, greasy, and most importantly, thin-crusted, and A Slice of NY got that in spades. Started off with an order of garlic knots. They look and feel like cinnamon rolls only garlic-y instead and come with marinara for dipping. They good, but pretty much any form of bread combined with garlic, butter, and marinara will make a delicious snack so yeah...try em out but I wouldn't say they're necessary unless you're hungry or a heffer like me. We got "The City" pizza, which was their supreme. Had mushrooms, onions, peppers, sausage, and pepperoni. All the toppings tasted really good, and there was a perfect amount of grease coming from the meats yum yum! My only complaint is that the crust is a little dry; it's like the wall of cheese was impermeable and kept the grease from combining with the crust.
Nonetheless, the pizza is still bomb and I'm very willing to make the 30 minute trek here more often to pig out now. Adios Amicis!
Probably the best NY style pizza in the bay area. I also love Amici's but they are both good for different reasons. This place doesn't deliver which sucks when you are feeling lazy, but it is worth picking up a pie here. Not a great place to eat in, but the pizza is delicious, so order a pie to go. Crust is thin and crispy and sauce is just right.The garlic knots are yummy too!
They're open late and service is great. Love having this place so closeby!
Still the best and will always be the best.
The crust is delicious, and I'm not even a crust eater. The cannolis are perfectly prepared and a must-have dessert. Garlic Knots are not necessary, but you've gotta try 'em at least once. They're delicious, just make sure you have enough room for the main course. The pizza itself is to die for. Every single slice I've ever tried was as good as the last.
ASONY is never a disappointment and always worth the money.
It seems to me that the BEST food places come in small sizes. A Slice of New York seems like a small… Read more »
Two slices of pizza between 11am and 2pm = free soda or a bottled water
I ordered a slice of cheese and a slice of mushroom which came out to $6.75. It's 25 cents for each topping added on the pizza so the cheese pizza slice was $3.25 and the mushroom slice was $3.50.
This place had good New York pizza. The slices were pretty big and two slices would be enough if you want something in your stomach but not cause a food coma.
The place was very small and seats were very limited. There were a few inside and a few outside. Parking was also very limited.
I really enjoy pizza regardless. There was nothing special about the pizza itself. I don't understand how many Yelpers think this is a "Woohoo! As good as it gets!"
This is equivalent to Nob Hill's deli section pizza. Most likely won't be back.
I LOVE how NY'ed out the place is... littered with NY street signs, posters, etc. It all keeps you pretty entertained as you eat/wait for the pizza. I esp. like the pictures of the people that are banned from their establishment with the reason why to the right of the door when you walk in. Pretty cool.
As far as thin crust pizza goes, this place is good, but not great. Flavors are good and service is awesome as everyone is really friendly. We got a large pie and were able to finish about half of it with 3 people. They even have their special NY sauce, which basically tastes like a buttery, tobasco, chicken wing like type sauce.
The only thing I didn't really care for was how the bottom of the pizza was a little doughy... It wasn't crunchy like how it is at Cicero's. The crust was good though.
3.5 stars.
If i had to compare this place I would say its like pizza my heart, only better. Its not greasy like pizza my heart and it has way better flavor. I usually favor deep dish but this was one of the best thin crust pizzas i've tried. Tongue titillating! I had the pesto and added pineapple. mmmm. Parking can be a bit tricky but overall i very much liked this pizza place. I really like staring at the big new your map they have on the wall, too.
WOW! My Girlfriend and my 2 sons went there today and all I have to say is OMG! I was born in Brooklyn and finding a good pie out here is REALLY HARD! The garlic KNOTS are OFF THE HOOK! This place is a DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH! Will tell ALL about this place! Can't wait to tell ALL MY FRIENDS about this HOT SPOT & can't wait to try the rest of their dishes! THANK YOU 4 BEING OPEN! TRULY!
Okay, so I came for lunch today with my mom. We were very lucky that we found parking considering all the reviews are whining about parking.
When we went in, I didn't really paid any attention to the decor because I never really cared about decor until I wait. So I ordered two pizzas and half order of Garlic Bread or something like that with a free drink! All for about $8.50. It may look expensive but considering how big the pizzas are, it's a steal! Bigger than me head and for all you people who call me big head, consider it a good thing. I was hoping to see the owner but he wasn't there.
My mom and I were debating what drink we can get to drink. We saw the coffee soda thing. My mom was very sleepy but she still drove (Will not talk about.) she wanted to try it. However, it would be only $2.50, which, we really didn't think it's worth it considering we are only here for pizza (Sorry owner, my mom and I were just here for the Pizza since it's our first time, but we will try it on a future visit.). I ended up getting Orange Pineapple soda which is pretty damn good.
I looked at the decors and I never been to New York city so I can't say much but all I can say is that I love them. Pretty creative with the train handles.
So I got my food and then just walked right out with my steal (I mean cheap) food. I didn't expect too much but boy, I was wrong. It's actually the best pizza I had in awhile. I was actually full on the first slice while I eat in the car and I didn't even eat breakfast!
Anyways, I got home and tried to hide it from my brother in foil to trick him with other food and yeah.
It's five stars+ for the pizza but what it comes short of the following:
The Garlic rolls is not really toasty. I like my rolls to be hot and crispy on the outside.
And I guess I can be nice but I would really like to meet the owner. Reading the reviews, I heard he's pretty nice.
Overall though, I'll be a loyal customer. I'll be here once in awhile. Oh and just in case of the owner ask me who I am, I'm the one with the Puma shirt.
Oh yeah, for service, it's pretty quick, so prefect for me especially I love to get out and go for a to go order. I'll be back soon and maybe try the coffee soda next time.
Went to New York.
This is the closest you're gonna get to NYC thin crust pizza in these parts.
So good.
Just go.
Nevermind the crazy ass fancy shmancy combos/toppings you can get somewhere else. This is…

I love this hole in the wall pizza place. I believe the owner is really from New York, so this is an authentic NY pizza. I always get the hawaiian style pizza and their canoli's.
Found it through Yelp. Just got back. Had a slice of the Margherita pizza and 3 of the garlic knots..Yum. I have to say, I need to go back and get a full pie that I can bake at home, or just get lucky and come at a time when the slice is a bit more fresh so that I can really do it justice...My slice was a little on the crumbly-crispy side. The last couple bites of the crust just sort of broke into hard pieces in my mouth. But, overall it was great.
Not a bad deal either, especially the garlic knots (pizza dough balls w/garlicky oily pesto-ish stuff) being only $2 for 3 with dipping sauce, or $4 for 6. My slice was $3.75 and as big as my face. Also, parking wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be after reading the yelp reviews on it. Customer service was quick and attentive and definitely seemed like catering to the customer was a top priority.
I'll definitely go back one of these days for more pizza and some of those garlic knots. I want to try the cannoli as well, we sell it where I work and I never really liked it all that much, so i want to give it a second chance here, where it seems to be well liked.
*Also, being open until 12pm everyday (except Mondays when they're closed) is definitely a plus, hard to find any late night food that's actually edible around here.
yeah. this place one of my two FAVE pizza places. i don't even really like pizza and am SUPER picky, but I crave Slice of New York! the thin crust is my style. extra crispy, baby.
ask for ricotta cheese on the pizza- it's the way they do in NY and they don't have it on the menu, but they will hook you up. and their pizza slices are so huge! (that's what she said)
OHHHH and... and you've got to get their cannolis. they are house made. you will absolutely regret it if you don't because it's heaven in your mouth. their cream filling is delicious and perfect and i can't even put into words what it does for me (that's what she said again).
there is very limited seating (4 seats?) in this place, total hole in the wall, but who cares? the guys there are awesome and the pizza is sooo fantastico.
:) i heart it. and they are open late. and you can tell there is a lot of love put into the food. :)
A great place to get pizza! The staff is incredibly friendly and I like all the NY signage. The mushroom pepperoni is delicious and the garlic knots are a buttery, garlicky, doughy set of goodness.
Definitely, consider getting their pizzas to go, since there's hardly any dine-in seating inside or outside.
I went back last night with my fiance and I had the margherita pizza. YUMMERS to my TUMMERS. Deeeeeeelicious! Definitely a better experience than last time.
We also had the salad for $5. It was very good. They gave us two dressings. One in a packette and one in a container that seem to have packed themselves. I liked the one they packed themselves better. It has more garlic! YUM!
I was craving pizza almost 2 weeks ago Friday and didn't want to hit the same ol places so I looked… Read more »
NY style pizza in San Jose. Brings me back to late night at Ray's on 95th and 2nd, ahh :)
Super small space that seats maybe four inside, and a few tables on the sidewalk. Any of the slices are good. And they have Diet Root Beer, nice.
Finally tried out this place after putting it in my yelp bookmark for month!
Cannot put it out of my mind ever since tried it on Friday. Very crispy thin crust but not cracker like. Reasonable price, good flavor. What more do you ask from a pizza? Yeah, it reminds me of the slice I had in NY. Totally will go back again and again. Maybe next week? hahha
Best for late nite, reasonable prices and pizza slices are good sizes. The best thin crust I have had thus far. Don't expect to eat there, there is not a sit down place...bar stools don't count.
Any food that can kill me in a bite through clogging my arteries makes me a fan!
If you are not a fan of thin crust pizza, look elsewhere because when it comes to thin crusts this place does the trick.
The hype does work up the place a little bit too much though. The garlic bites are oily, yummy, cheesy bites! But they're big so order a small order. The cannolis are a bit sweet for me, I could only finish half after such a heavy meal.
The place is so small, I totally missed it just driving by looking for it. But it's a def must try if you live here.
After reading all of the great reviews, me and my man ventured out Friday night to grab a slice or two. It was delicious. Very thin and crispy! I normally don't go for thin crust but tried it and was not disappointed. It ddn't suck.
: )
There's gourmet thin-crust and straight-up thin crust. Slice of NY is the latter. It's NORMAL pizza that's had its doughy crust shaved down to a thin layer. Got a bit of crunch texture on the rim for variety. This pizza still tastes amazing when it's re-heated. Instructions are on the website! http://www.asliceofny.com/
++ | Sutton Place |
Thin shaved slices of sausage tossed with mushrooms to form a uniform look. You won't find chunky nubs of meat sticking out on this pizza.
++ | Bensonhurst |
Rich savory filling pesto pizza w/juicy pieces of chicken that haven't been cooked dry to death.
++ | Garlic Knots |
These look so absolutely delicious you've got to try them. Golden rolls brushed with butter and topped with garlic and herbs. Dip in marinara and enjoy...
Coney Island - Pineapple/Ham is alright here; I'm not sure it's got a rich enough substance to really power the thin crust.
Check out the funky selection of sodas in the case too!
Large "pie" = $22 or $26
Garlic Knots = $6 for 4
Don't know much about New York-style pizza but what we had was DELICIOUS! Thin, crisp crust. Flavorful toppings.
Wandered in thinking we'd order a pie to take home. While waiting to order, though, we were treated to complimentary cannelloni's and a uber-friendly crowd. This was like going to your neighborhood bar and chatting things up.
We ordered our pizza and garlic twists (more like garlic rolls) then decided to try a slice of Sicillian pizza while we waited. Wow! Delicious.
We enjoyed our shared slice along with pleasant conversation and it seemed like just minutes when the order-taker came out and said our pizza was ready.
Brought the pizza and garlic twists home and they were wonderful. Definitely will come back.
Stop the search. The quest for the best pizza in the bay area has finished and the winner is undoubtedly A Slice of New York. If anything could hurt their rating it would be the location but the pizza is good enough to keep the 5 stars.
You're going to make me fat, aren't you?
My goal is to try everything from this place.
Last week I went there with my boyfriend.
We ordered calzone this time and it was super super cheeeeesy.
This place is so generous when it comes to cooking cheese.
I love the calzone so much.
Once again their pizza was great. The cheese layer absorb on top of the crust and they stick together.
You will have a problem if you want to separate these two layers.
I guarantee that every bite has everything.
People that work there are friendly. They still made us an order of fresh salad even it was really late.
Amaaaaaaazing!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!
After seeing the review, I had high expectation to their pizza.

Greasy awesomeness in triangle form.
I had a slice of the margherita, which was amazing. I would definitely recommend it. The crust was amazing - chewy with just enough crunch. (Caution: take care not to be scalded by the hot grease)
I also tried the garlic knots which I thought was pretty good but not mind blowing.
The large looks super large when you look at the box, but the pizza is so thin that it really isn't that large. I was sad. I was expecting to be full and have lots of leftovers for the next night. My boyfriend and I almost polished off the large and were still hungry. (We're small to average-sized people.) We decided to save two slices because we didn't want to be able to say that we ate a whole large pizza by ourselves. That and the pizza was so greasy that that it was dripping.

I decided to give Slice of New York a second chance. This time I had a much better experience, so I'm adding one more star to the three stars.
For $7.25, I got a mushroom slice, margarita slice, and a can of soda. The slices are huge, but the pizzas are really thin, so two slices isn't actually as much as one would think. However, it was still a better deal than the personal pan at Round Table. The best time to eat here is when you're not starving or when you're looking for a snack. The crust is almost as thin as a cracker and the toppings aren't piled on like on most Californian pizzas. I recommend eating there if you can because the fresh pizzas are crispier and the large pizzas are humongouos. The large to-go pizzas are smaller than "advertised" because they have to be able to fit in the box. The mushroom slice wasn't oily. The margarita was, but it wasn't too bad after the oil was patted off with a napkin.
What really impressed me this time around was the service. The super friendly cashier (and possibly the owner) would go around asking customers if they needed anything else such as cutting a slice in half or a bag when he wasn't busy taking orders. (That's not to say that the first time I visited the staff wasn't also friendly.)
This was the best pizza I've had outside of NYC and hands down it's best pizza in the Bay Area. My husband if from NY and he's despaired for years that he can't get good pizza out here. Well that changed when we came here to try their slices. I thought my husband was going to die from happiness.
Not only is their pizza to die for, their calzones are also the best--from the crust to the cheese to the marinara.
This is THE place for pizza. Just be prepared to stand to eat it or take it home, because the place is tiny.
I'm not really a big NY pizza lover (but I do love my pizza!) but every now and then NY is a-ok. I got a large city and some garlic knots. Coming at around 5PM on a Sunday I was surprised to see a line that was almost at the door. The wall of shame pictures were interesting too. So back to the food, the knots weren't really knots but rather dinner-roll like 'knots' with uber amounts of butter and garlic. The pizza was pretty good but I didn't really like the crust, when I think of NY pizza crust I assumed it would be floppy but this crust was pretty firm. Still the pizza itself was good, better than pizza my heart but some minor adjustments can make it great. I'll be back here the next time I'm near valley fair/santana row.
Good but not as good as an NY pie!
Gotta love that greasy awesome goodness! A hole in the wall type place, sometimes hard to find parking, but so very worth it! They use very simple ingredients here so I wouldn't call it "gourmet" pizza but that is whats so great about it! I like it when things are kept simple! Your slice is always piping hot when you get it, yum!
There is not a lot of seating here but you can always stand or lean on your car while eating. I actually prefer that, eating a slice of pizza while watching the traffic go by....perfect. The guys here are always really nice too and I few times when we've come here instead of giving us the very last piece...they give us two slices. The older one and a brand new one from the oven! Awesome!
Tip: Try their garlic knots! Super chewy, yummy, warm, garlicy goodness!
From a NYer who grew up with great pizza everywhere, this is the real thing. The crust is thin and crisp, the ingredients are good quality, the service is good, and the pizza and garlic knots are worth driving a few extra miles for. The cannoli, even if you don't know what it is, is fabulous, and I'm told the ingredients are imported from NY.
Not much of an eat in spot, but the food makes it worth it, and eating at the counter is fine for a small group, outside tables too. Whaddya waiting for?
What's the hype, people? Seriously- not impressed.
People who work here are friendly, and I liked the service (even though they initially gave my pizza to someone else and were real apologetic- no worries!)... but I was completely disappointed by the pizza itself. I went here specifically because it was the highest rated pizza joint in SJ on Yelp.
Toppings- Alright, but not phenomenal.
Cheese and Sauce- Skimpy on the sauce and cheese, and the sauce was salty, but had no taste of sweetness at all.
Crust- The real low point. Lacking in yeasty flavor, dry and chewy. At least two other pizza joints I've tried in the area have better.
I am NOT a picky eater- hey, all pizza is "good" pizza. But I have to say, this is definitely the worse pizza I've had in SJ. 3 Words... FAST PIZZA DELIVERY over in Willow Glen. We must have ordered from there a dozen times, and it's always been the same high quality and great taste. Their pizza kicks this pizza's arse.
