If you've never had artichoke pizza, this is the place to try it. It's nice and creamy and surprisingly doesn't taste strongly like artichoke. The crust was good, too. I also had the vodka pepperoni pizza, which was delicious. I like that the pizza is cut into squares--each slice is pretty big and definitely filling. The pizza can get a little messy, but it's totally worth it. They have cheese, red pepper, basil, and other condiments available on the tables. There are no chairs, so you stand and eat, which actually works well for this kind of spot. The vibe was good, and while it can get a little crowded inside, the pizza makes it worth it. Service was good--the guy who took my order was quick and efficient. read more

Artichoke Basille’s Pizza - Artichoke and vodka pepperoni pizza - Pizza Near Me - New York, New York

Came here for lunch and grabbed a couple of slices. Unfortunately, I wasn't impressed with the Margherita slice. While the slice itself was large, the quality didn't match the size. It was served at room temperature instead of hot, the crust was soggy, there was far too much tomato sauce, and barely any cheese. The little cheese that was on it wasn't even fully melted. Overall, the slice was very mediocre and lacked flavor. Compared to other pizza spots, this one fell short and wasn't nearly as enjoyable as I had hoped. The service was fast, and it wasn't crowded when I visited. There are a few tables toward the back, though they're more suited for standing and eating rather than sitting down for a meal. read more

I really enjoyed my stop at Artichoke. The place has a chill vibe and the staff were genuinely friendly and helpful, even when it got busy. My pizza was delicious, super flavorful, and the portion was way more generous than I expected - one slice was honestly enough for a full meal. The crust had a nice crunch and the cheese was perfectly melted, though my slice was a little burnt on the edge, which was the only small downside. It's a bit of a shame they don't have a restroom for customers, especially when you're dining in, but the service and taste easily made up for it. Overall, a solid spot if you're craving a rich, cheesy slice and don't mind things being a little messy. I'd definitely go back next time I'm in the neighborhood. read more

Artichoke Basille’s Pizza - Pizza Near Me - New York, New York

In college Artichoke Basille's was a staple meal for me, so being in NYC I was so excited to revisit my college staple! I went around 5:30 on a Wednesday and the place has very little rush. There were about 3-4 other parties there and I was able to order very quickly. I ordered a slice of the artichoke, which was always one of my favorites. I got it to go but since they had ample standing tables available I ended up eating there. They don't have any places to sit here so if you wanted to be comfortable you should take it to go. Pizza was as delicious as always! Creamy, flavorful, and a big size. They have shaker toppings there to help yourself with if you want, but I don't think it needs it at all. Brought back some good food memories and I'll be back to get some vodka Sicilian at a later date! read more

Artichoke Basille’s Pizza - Artichoke Slice - Pizza Near Me - New York, New York

Heavy on the sauce- just the way I like it. Artichoke is known for the saucy, messy, and cheesy slices that are twice the size of your face. While slightly pricier than the others, the portion is at least double what you'll get in a nearby shop. The artichoke slice is its golden child, but it's just a bit too salty and cheesy for my taste. My favorites are the vodka and margherita. The vodka is the thicker, square slice, but the flavors are unmatched. read more

I dream of this pizza. Their vodka slice is my favorite pizza on earth. Nothing else compares. My second favorite is their namesake, the Artichoke pizza which is a meal in one slice. This is a simple walk in and order location with several standing tables. Service is efficient and even on a weekend night the wait is not too long. You may also order ahead online. If you are in the area this is a must stop in NYC. If you prefer to eat at a table there are some nearby in Herald SQ park. Get lots of napkins as this pizza is messy and OH SO WORTH IT. read more

5 stars because one of the pizza slices was life-changing. If it wasn't for that one slice, this place would be a solid 4-star review. FOOD Visiting NY for the second time and I really wanted the NY pizza experience. Saw Joe's Pizza but wasn't impressed with the pizza photos online. And it's not sold by the slice (c'mon, uncle Joe). I kept searching for other options and saw online photos of Artichoke Basille's. There was no denying their pizza is a feast for the eyes. I got the following slices - pepperoni, artichoke, crab, and the Staten Island. The CLEAR winner was the namesake - the artichoke pizza. The slice is bigger than an Acer Nitro V gaming laptop . They have perfected pizza-cheese technology where it's melty on top but creamy like heaven beneath the melty layer covered in artichokes. I took 10 bites and realized I haven't shown the other slices any attention, like a parent with a favorite child. But all the other pieces couldn't compare. So I picked the artichoke slice back up which was now the size of an iPad. I whispered to the slice "We're starting this up again, aren't we?" and finished what I started. I gained 13 pounds from that one slice. I found out there's an Artichoke Basille's in Berkeley, CA. If you're in the Bay Area, it's worth the drive. read more

Wanted to try Joe's pizza bc it's a famous classic, but there was an extremely long line out the door, so my friend took me to this spot instead. We ordered the vodka, crab, Staten Island, and margherita pizzas. Magherita was easily the best one. Great flavors from the tomato, basil, and cheese combo. The Staten Island was a bit dense and the pizza was floppy because of how much ingredients were on there. The crab pizza had a lil kick to it but nothing crazy. The vodka was basic but yummy with a thicker crust. First NY pizza in the books! read more

I'm not a huge pizza advocate. If it tastes good then it tastes good. We tried this place as a recommendation from a friend and it was pretty average. I do agree that if you like heavy sauce, then this is the place for you. The slices are huge so be prepared to get your hands dirty. I will say, there was an obscene amount of oil that literally flowed from the pizza and got all over our clothes and the ground. I'm all for greasy food but this was a but too much. The price is also not the cheapest but still under 8$ for a slice. I wouldn't mind coming back here again read more

FOOD We ordered the Sicilian, artichoke, and pepperoni slices. They were much larger than what we thought they'd be, but unfortunately the slices we had weren't heated long enough despite the burnt crust and undercarriage. Sicilian: Probably the best of the three slices we had. The crust wasn't as burnt, the cheese was melted, and the sauce was warm. Overall a solid slice, but not one I'd go out of my way for. Artichoke Slice: The sauce was thick and creamy and definitely had a wow factor at first bite, but it quickly got bland as we ate the rest of the slice. The burnt base and crust wasn't particularly helping us finish the slice either. Pepperoni slice: The pepperonis were the star of the show-- thick and crispy and very flavorful. The red sauce complemented it well, but unfortunately as the slice wasn't heated for long, the cheese wasn't melted so it wasn't the most enjoyable to eat. DRINKS Canned sodas and beers are available for purchase in cooler inside the store. SERVICE The environment is very quick-paced, even during non-peak hours. We came in around 2-3 pm and even though it was a line of just 4-5, the staff filtered through us quickly. Note that cash is preferred, and there is a transaction fee for credit card use. AMBIANCE Although no seats are available inside the store, tabletops are available to eat while standing. Parmesan, Italian seasoning, and dried pepper shakers are chained to the racks against the walls for guests to use. read more

Artichoke Basille’s Pizza - Pizza Near Me - New York, New York

I live in Minnesota, but grew up in New York. This pizza probably would have received a five star rating, based on Midwest standards, but it's not the best example of New York pizza. Starting with the Pepperoni pizza, It was very heavily sauced and a bit light on Mozzarella cheese. The pepperonis were very good. Second up was the Margherita pizza. This was the most successful of the three. I ordered the "Staten Island" which had meatballs, tomato Sauce, red onions and Ricotta Cheese. It was a very pretty pizza, but I found the Ricotta cheese overwhelming and too rich. I wound up scraping it off. Although I lot lots of sauce, I also felt this pizza had too much. So it was mixed bag. However, I do feel comfortable with a four star rating overall. read more

After hearing about Artichoke Pizza for months, I finally decided to check it out on a Sunday evening, walking over from Bryant Park. The service was super quick, which was great, but be aware that seating is extremely limited--just three standing tables if you want to eat there. We opted to take our order to go and enjoy it at home. I got their infamous Artichoke slice, and let me tell you--it lived up to the hype. This is not your typical New York slice that you fold and eat on the go. It's thicker, almost like a deep-dish meets Sicilian hybrid, but don't be fooled--the crust is still perfectly crispy. The real star? The fluffy texture and creamy Alfredo sauce that made every bite mouthwatering. As someone who isn't usually crazy about artichokes, I was completely won over by this slice. This spot is officially in my rotation if I want something more than a NYC slice. If you're looking for a rich, indulgent slice with a unique twist, this is absolutely worth a visit. Just plan ahead if you need seating or have a large group! read more

Slaps. Don't miss it. The vodka slice will change you. Just get it. Do it. Also the artichoke slice is insane.

I came here on the way out of the city because Joe's had an insane line even at almost midnight on a Saturday night. Small grab-and-go or stand-and-eat type of place. Pretty sure they don't have a bathroom here, so you definitely don't come for the ambiance or the comfort. Pizza itself was great - I got a margarita pie and a single artichoke slice. Slices are big, you get that doughy flavor, and the margarita was tasty and hit the spot with that fresh mozz and fresh tomatoes. Some basil sprinkled throughout too. I don't like the artichoke slice personally, but my fiancé said it was good just very salty. The guy working the counter was nice enough considering other experiences I've had at NYC pizza joints late night. There was a bit of a wait but not too bad, and the line moved decently. Prices were outrageous. $37 for a margarita pie and $9 for an artichoke slice. I ended up paying $52 for a pie and a slice. And I asked if "credit and cash are the same" and the guy said yes although I ended up with a 3% credit card fee AND prompted by the spinny tablet thing to tip - for a standing room only takeout place with no bathroom is disgraceful. Won't be back anytime soon! Excellent margarita pizza but as usual, ridiculous Manhattan transaction costs and frankly a tourist trap compared to the days I knew them from 14th street. read more

Artichoke Basille's Pizza is legit one of my favorite pizza places in NYC. Guys. If you like spinach artichoke dip then you will LOVE this place. First talking about the namesake of the restaurants--the Artichoke Slice. The slices here are absolutely massive. (Please see picture attached with my hand and a computer mouse as a size reference). The pizza has mozzarella, pecorino romano, artichoke hearts, spinach and other seasonings in a creamy cheesy sauce. This slice is like if spinach artichoke dip and a bread-y pizza had a perfect lovechild. I won't lie, the slice is quite heavy and it's hard to finish it all in one setting, but that's actually perfect because you can have some leftovers for your next meal! This won't be every one's cup of tea but if you are intrigued then definitely give it a try. The other slice that I ordered was the Crab Slice which has "crab sauce," mozzarella, and surimi (a paste that is the primary ingredient used to make imitation crab). I also really enjoyed this slice! This has a thinner crust but still had the same bread-y, chewy, crunchy, and yeast-y qualities that I enjoyed from the Artichoke Slice. I know that seafood and cheese sounds like an abominable combination - but trust me, it's good. I also randomly threw in a Pastel de Nata to my order, which, to my surprise, was quite good. The tart was custard-y, with a flaky crust, and wasn't too sweet. 10/10 would recommend Artichoke's. I am craving it right now as I write this review. read more

Artichoke Pizza is so yummy and a pizza staple in NYC. They opened in 2008 in the East Village and have expanded in multiple locations including where I visited which was the Times Square Location. They have been featured in shows such as Jay Leno, Seth Meyers and also been on New York Times and New York Post. When you walk in, it's standing room only so be aware of that! Here are all the massive slices I tried. Artichoke, Margherita, Staten Island, Vodka, Sicilian, plain pizza My favorite was the Vodka Pizza which had a mild garlic flavor and was very reminiscent of vodka. read more

The place was crowded. They have no seats, just table tops that are uneven. Very narrow inside, so if that isn't your thing just take your slices to go. I got the artichoke slice and the vodka slice. The artichoke slice was good. Basically artichoke dip on pizza. It was a huge slice. The vodka slice was okay, but it wasn't hot enough. Didn't realize until I took a bite of it and I was like it's too late now. I would come again if I was in the city. read more

Terrible pizza, the service was trash, open late nights. After leaving a Broadway, we were pretty hungry and there were very limited options. Artichoke was open and had a few people inside. We went in and waited at the register for about 10-15min before anyone greeted us or even took our order. It was so odd because I looked around to see if maybe we were suppose to order at a kiosk and pick up at the counter. However, there was no kiosk. I politely, shouted across the kitchen "hello" to get the guys attention. He finally looked over. I asked "how do we order?. " He said "I will take your order" and went back to wiping counters. He came over about 3-4 min later and took our order. At the point my friend decided she didn't want anything. I ordered a Margherita pizza slice for $7 (Welcome to Manhattan) The place didn't have the nostalgic pizzeria smell of baked dough and robust sauce that I'm used to, that was the first giveaway. When I received the slice in the box, the box was so heavy as if there was a brick in the box. Immediately I knew it was not going to be good. I took one bite, and I left it on the side of the road. The dough was dense, the cheese was non existent, and the sauce had no flavor. I was so annoyed! No matter how late it is, if you are a NYC pizza lover... do not come! It will didisappoint you. read more

I was in town & walked over to grab slices of both artichoke and vodka slices. The service was good. And I was in and out quickly. Inside was just as I remembered, small, quaint with high tables to stand and eat. However, the quality has gone down. The artichoke slices was SO salty! I ate it when I returned to my hotel so maybe that was why? I only ate a little and chucked the rest, even the vodka slices. By that point, all I could taste was salt! Very disappointed. read more

The famous artichoke is great but I LOVED the vodka sauce pizza (the classic cheese pizza is seriously delicious).

I'm done with this place. Been here 3 times. Twice it's been okay but today it was disastrous. Waited 15 minutes for 3 slices of pizza. When I finally received them, the oven guy used bare hands to check underneath my slice to see if it's burnt. I don't like when my food is handled like that. Then when passing me the food, the slices touched the counter desk. Another red flag. That's not hygienic at all. Then I waited another 5-6 minutes for new slices to be warmed up. Margarita so thin it broke into half the moment I touched it. It was burnt and tested burnt. Meatball pizza below average and it cost $8.66 after taxes a slice. Crazy overpriced for stingy slice with no meat. Artichoke slice was as usual good but it was also burnt. Front desk guy is really nice and apologized but I'm not coming back to get charged premium and eat BELOW average pizza. read more

This place is incredibly overhyped. The wait was extremely long and the pizza was definitely not worth it. The slices were big, but overall kind of lacked distinct flavors. Even the artichoke one didn't have much to it, but it was better than the pepperoni slice. The inside was absolutely chaotic. No clear direction on what to do or where to go. Food delivery drivers just rushing in and out and demanding they're served before others. It was really annoying. The worst part of my experience was the staff. They were rude and unhelpful. When I ordered, I asked if they'd be making more of the pizza I really wanted. They lied to me saying they weren't making any more of it, but then let someone like five people down from me order it? Definitely skip this place on your trip! read more

We ordered the pie since they don't sell this one by the slice and it was amazing and hands down the best white pizza I've actually had!! It took about 20min which is fine given that they made it from scratch and it was worth the wait for sure. The team was friendly and service quick.

Two star for the Pizza itself. Worst staff. The pizza was decent, but the customer service was incredibly disappointing. I stopped by to grab two slices and paid by card. As I was reaching into my purse to leave a cash tip, one of the staff members--a load shorter Asian? man with an accent--sarcastically said, "Thank you for no gratuity," loud enough for everyone in line to hear. It was rude, unprofessional, and completely unnecessary. To make matters worse, he didn't bother warming the pizza and tossed it carelessly into the box. By the time I got home, the slices were a mess. I won't be coming back to this location and wouldn't recommend it to others. read more
