      Absolutely delicious food. We ordered via grubhub and the food came piping hot and service was fantastic- awesome delivery driver. We got Italian Alfredo, cheese sticks, and a variety of slices. You must try the vodka pizza slice it's absolutely to die for. Can't wait to visit nyc again and have some more dishes from here.

      Stopped in here on a Monday night for a few slices to go. Really impressed with the quality of their pizza. It's hard to find a slice spot that sells napoletana style pizza and this place delivers. Mozzerela was so fresh, sauce was a beautiful mix of savory and sweet, and the pieces were perfectly foldable. Diavola square slice was also really tasty even tho it wasn't the traditional napoletana style. Nice little area where you can sit and enjoy your slices too.

      REALLY delicious pizza- I would rate an 8.5/10!!! We ordered the burrata and prosciutto appetizer and the aglietta pizza (cheese, sauce, roasted garlic). The burrata and prosciutto were fresh, but didn't wow me (cheese was a little too firm).

      The pizza on the other hand may be some of, if not THE, best pizza I've had in NY. The crust was both fluffy and light, and extremely soft and chewy on the inside, the ratio of cheese and sauce was perfect, and the roasted garlic was not overpowering; instead was a great addition to each bite.

      I loved how the inside of the restaurant was decorated, and it was cool to sit in front of the wood fire oven and watch all the pizzas being made. Highly recommend trying this pizza spot!!!

      We went to Luzzos after seeing it ranked SECOND(!!!) on http://www.varasanos.com/PizzaRecipe.htm. I mean, c'mon, that's a must-try.

      I have to say, I was a little disappointed. The sauce was on the fresh side, not as sweet. Which isn't a bad thing, just sayin'. The dough could have been a little more crispy on the outside and airy on the inside. And some more flavor to the dough. The basil was solid. Overall it just wasn't as flavorful as I'd hope or good enough to justify being so insanely high on the Varasanos ranking.

      But it was still very very good. I'm nitpicking here. It was very fresh and very good pizza. Well worth the $18 or whatever it costs, and pretty high on the list of best pizza I've ever had.

      It was interesting that there was no one at the restaurant. Completely empty when we got there. I found that to be pleasant though. Compare that to a place like Johns where you have to wait, it is packed and crowded and noisy. I prefer the peacefulness.

      i ordered this restaurant through uber eats, they had a bogo special deal going on. i was skeptical to order under special promo and offers because of possibility that restaurants won't go as hard as making something with love. unfortunately my assumption became true when i received my order. The uber Eats service guy delivered it with care however i was disappointed in the taste. i posted picture to show that i ordered "Cheesy" bread in fact it was an ultra thin cheese nothing cheesy about it. the taste wasnt there, it was unfortunately tasteless. i didn't taste garlic or any spices but thats okay - but come on!!! a thin slice of cheese? yikes. lol

      Was looking to get a quick slice. The second I walked in- before I even looked at the menu and pizza- the counter lady says "what would you like?" ...... I picked the sausage slice. She picked it up with a spatula, dropped a few toppings.... Scooped it up with her hand and threw it back on.... Then proceeded to balance the slice of pizza on the spatula, all the way to the oven.

      It was in the oven for about 20 seconds and given to me. I paid $5.50 for warm sausage pizza which toppings were plopped on top with bare hands.....

      Yummy but yucky.

      Came here on a Saturday night at about 8:30 in a party of 4. This restaurant is highly recommended by my cousin and he has been a regular for many years, safe to say it did not disappoint. For appetizers we ordered the parmigiana de melanzane, bruschetta, and burratta with prosciutto. Since the majority of our party is vegetarian, we asked for the prosciutto to come on a separate plate and the restaurant was very accommodating. I absolutely loved the bruschetta. The tomato's seemed very fresh, the bread was crispy, and there was a nice balance of basil and garlic. Maybe because I don't eat meat I couldn't appreciate the burrata, but it was nothing special and I would probably not get it again. The parmegiana was also delicious and definitely a table favorite.

      Now to the exciting part: the pizzas. We got 2 pizzas for the table: Ortolana pizza and Pizza Fritta. Unfortunately we had asked for the pizza fritta without ham and they forgot to do that so most of us did not eat it. However, I tried the outside bread part and that at least tasted like fried bread and deliciousness. The Ortolana pizza, however, was great! We got a 12 inch amongst 3 people, and it was extremely filling. The different toppings went together great and I especially loved the mushrooms! Overall, would come again for some delicious pizza.

      Walked by this place real quick as I was about to grab an empanada for lunch. I smelt the fresh slices from outside and turned around to take a peak! I walked inside to see FRESH SLICES galore!!!! I didn't know where to start first, but I quickly grabbed a Buffalo mozz slice that was massive and did not disappoint. It was about $5 or so but certainly a great treat to have for lunch! Service wasn't as friendly as I expected to be, but the food certainly was fantastic!!! Next time I'll take a pic before inhaling it

      Cozy atmosphere in the evening and airy in the daytime. Ordered a mushroom square and plain cheese slice. Pizza dough was very fresh/soft and crispy on the bottom. The pizza sauce was very good. Good place for a quick bite. The ladies that worked there were friendly.
