"Ask any New Yorker, and they'll rattle off dozens of spots, all easily among the best pizza places in America. Everyone has an opinion on classic haunts like Patsy's, Roberta's, Joe's, and John's, and don't forget about Di Fara or Spumoni Gardens. There are also newer, trendier spots, where foodies and celebrities alike line up to taste New York's hottest slice."
"You don't need to stand in a line that stretches for blocks, or wait for hours to place an order, or go broke while trying to taste the latest celebrity-approved pizza. The joints off the beaten path can actually be the most satisfying. Scattered across the five boroughs, some have been around for decades, while others have made a name for themselves in recent years."
New York City hosts roughly 1,813 to over 2,000 pizzerias when counting restaurants that also serve pizza. Classic, long-standing institutions share the scene with newer, trend-driven shops frequented by foodies and celebrities. Many high-quality options exist outside tourist corridors, offering affordable, handmade New York–style thin-crust pies without long waits. These hole-in-the-wall joints are scattered across all five boroughs, with some operating for decades and others gaining reputations more recently. Louie & Ernie's in the Bronx, open since 1959, exemplifies an old-school pizzeria producing handmade thin-crust pizzas from a residential storefront.
