The 19 Best Pizza Places in New York City
Fresh slices for takeout and delivery.
New York is no stranger to pizza, and with a great number of restaurants across the city, New Yorkers may have different opinions on the best pizza joint in the Big Apple. This Italian specialty has been a part of the city’s food history ever since Gennaro Lombardi migrated from Italy in the 1890s and started selling pizzas in a small grocery store in Little Italy. Due to popular demand, Gennaro opened a separate pizzeria in 1905 called Lombardi’s.
Whether you’re a loyal fan of Lombardi’s coal-fired, thin-crust Neapolitan or you simply can’t get enough of Two Boots‘ Bayou Beast topped with spiced shrimp, crawfish, andouille, jalapeños and mozzarella, our guide to the best pizzerias in New York City has got you covered. From Roberta’s situated in Brooklyn, all the way to Dani’s House of Pizza in Queens, read on for 19 restaurants that offer pizza delivery and takeout.
