As the home of the largest Italian-American community in the U.S., it comes as no surprise that New York City is home to some of the best pizzas in America as well as the entire world. Here are some of the best places in the Big Apple where you can enjoy a New York slice.
Rubirosa Pizza
Founded in 2009 by AJ Pappalardo, this pizzeria is as authentic as it gets. Papplardo decided to take the old pizza recipes that his family used at their restaurant in Staten Island and share them in the bustling borough of Manhattan. This pizzeria’s specialty is New York-style slices.
Paulie Gee’s Slice Shop
Offering traditional Neopolitan pies, Paulie Gee’s Slice Shop is an ideal place to stop by for a quick slice or sit down and relax while digging into some scrumptious pizza. Diners can choose between Paulie Gee’s restaurant for a comfortable dine-in experience and the Slice Shop for a quick food pitstop before going on your way.
Di Fara Pizza
Founded in 1965, this classic pizzeria can be found at its original location in the New York City borough of Brooklyn while another chain was recently set up at South Street Seaport. Both New York-style pizza and square, Roman-style pizzas are on offer, equally cheesy and delicious.
