This was my first time trying artichoke anything, and I absolutely loved the artichoke pizza. The slice had a thick layer of cheese, shredded artichoke, and a cream/alfredo base instead of tomato sauce. This is definitely something for people who enjoy rich, creamy, cheesy food - otherwise you might consider it too heavy. It is a hefty slice and my family split it as a snack. One of my favorite eats on my NY trip so far - I would come back to try the other flavors, like vodka or crab pizza! read more

I always have to get some pizza when in NYC and this spot was the place I tried on my most recent trip. My husband and I shared a slice of the artichoke pizza and a slice of the vodka pepperoni pizza. I loved both of them! The artichoke was super unique and delicious. I loved vodka sauce on pizza and they use the little pepperoni cups that are the best kind of pepperoni. I'd absolutely come back here again when I'm looking for a slice of pizza in NYC! read more

Small pizza spot in the west village area. I recommend their artichoke slice which is $7 plus tax but it's huge and definitely worth the price. There are a few stools in case you want to dine in. Place is always very hot during summer, spring or whenever I go. They need some type of ventilation system. read more

Artichoke pizza was ok. Very rich and decadent and I liked the creaminess. Downside was that the pizza was super salty and the crust was way too thick. However the crust has to be thick to stand up to all the cream. Not my favorite but it's still better than average pizza. read more

Probably top 5 best pizza in the city. In my opinion. Service is fast so you better know what to order when you're in line. Cash/ Card payment Great location for tourist and after hours snack. HUUUUUUGE SLICES, but never eat it with a fork or knife "that's definitely jail time penalty" lol read more

My go to spot for artichoke pizza, a must try. It tastes like cheddar broccoli soup, so if you're a big fan of that flavor, you'll love this. It's a bit different from other pizzerias, with a thicker crust that isn't too heavy. It can get a little salty, so you'll probably want a soda with it. Great location for a quick grab and go. read more

Artichoke Basille's Pizza has some really delicious pizza. I had the margherita pizza, and it was so flavorful and fresh. I also tried the artichoke pizza, which was so good and creamy. I honestly didn't think I would like the artichoke pizza at first, but it ended up being really delicious and my favorite. This place is very popular and gets packed, even around 1 PM. The good thing is you can either sit inside or order it to go. read more

This was highly recommended as something totally different than the classic pizza. I have to say artichoke pizza is pretty damm good. This pizza is so rich in flavor, the cheese is super tasty, and the Alfredo sauce gushes out in every bite. Each slide is huge, and being so rich, it's very filling. read more

Came here after a late night out. Sadly they didn't have the crab slice which is my favorite but I took it as an opportunity to try the famous artichoke slice. It was delicious however incredibly rich and creamy so I couldn't finish it. I found the crust to be on the thicker and doughier side. My friend thought the pepperoni was alright. Service was quick, the restaurant was relatively small with a few counters and barstools. read more

Artichoke Basille's Pizza - artichoke slice, pepperoni slice - Pizza Near Me - New York, New York

Artichoke is a must-visit every time I'm in town. The first time I tried them, their iconic black and gold storefront and yummy aroma drew me in from the street for a hot slice. No regrets! Their signature Artichoke white slice is absolutely incredible - rich, creamy, and so savory. This is my ideal "Girl Dinner". But honestly, you can't go wrong with anything here; everything I've tried has been delicious. Be prepared, though - it's almost always crowded. The line moves, but you'll need a little patience. That said, the payoff is more than worth it. If you're a pizza lover, this spot deserves a permanent place on your NYC food list. read more

Artichoke offers a slightly pricey, heavy sized pizza offering in the NYC food scene. I came here because my friend recommended it, and I was not disappointed. Ambiance is your typical clustered, old school pizzeria - just how I like it. Service was quick. Their pizza slices are massive and satisfying, though I found them a touch salty - a subjective point, of course. The pepperoni slice was a highlight; the sauce has a mild, well-balanced tomato flavor that doesn't overpower the toppings. However, their Artichoke white slice is the star for a good reason. If you're into artichokes, you must try their offering. While I'm not sure it's the absolute #1 pizza joint in town, Artichokes is certainly a top contender. read more

That Artichoke Slice really is something special. First of all it's MASSIVE. Its thick too like they load so much on it, its so creamy and delicious I can't get enough of it I was so happy while eating it. I took it to go to eat in washington square park and it was so nice out. The crust was crispy and I loved this slice so much. On the other hand, the Staten Island Slice was as good as the actual place: not very good! It kinda felt like eating spoonfuls of tomatoes like it really just overpowered all the meat, onions, and cheese. I'm just gonna pretend I didn't order that and that I only had the artichoke slice read more

This was a tricky one, but I am basing my review solely on the Artichoke Slice, which given the name and reputation, should have been the only thing I ordered. The artichoke slice was like nothing I've ever had before - it was massive but somehow had absolutely no flop, which is astounding given its size and the heft of the toppings. It had a wonderful creaminess and a delicious flaky crust. I also ordered a Sicilian slice from a new pie, but after one bite of what tasted like soggy frozen pizza that had been sitting out for three weeks - which I couldn't even lift off the plate - that slice went right in the trash and wins the title of the worst slice I've ever tried to eat. So stick to the artichoke, but definitely go and have it because it is incredible! read more

Best pizza in the whole world! I've had several pizzas across the globe and the artichoke pizza is my number 1. There are a few around NYC and there's not a lot of seating so be prepared to take it to go if anything. The ooey gooey sauce and flavor will melt on your mouth. It's so good I always have to bring a slice back to cali. The slices are gigantic so one slice is enough for me or even to share if you're not too hungry. A few other options they provide but hands down artichoke pizza is the leading contender. read more

Went from my favorite pizza spot to one that just disappoints. Came in the other day to get a slice to eat in the park around three, it wasn't busy there was nobody else waiting online so just ordering a slice to go. My slice was packed in the box and by the time I took the three block walk to the park, sat down and bit into my pizza it was already ice cold. What's the point of me getting a hot slice if you're not even going to actually heat it up. And let me tell you this is not a slice, all the cheese and toppings are unpleasant when cold so this is completely disappointing. read more

Another popular pizza spot, this place became famous for their signature Artichoke Slice. A pizza topped with their house made creamy white sauce topped with cheese and artichoke. The crust was definitely thick to help support the amount of sauce they add on. This was very good, but extremely rich and heavy. It's hard to finish a whole slice since each one is massive and super heavy. I would definitely get it to share and try the vodka slice which was similarly very thick, but was not as rich as the Artichoke slice. Definitely come hungry and ready when eating here.

Visited here for my first New York slice after rave reviews. It was empty for a Monday midday stop. I opted for the spinach and artichoke pizza and a pepperoni slice. The artichoke pizza was good but a little bit salty which was a bummer due to not being able to eat more than a few bites at a time. The pepperoni pizza had good flavor was a bit greasy. Overall I enjoyed the density and flavor profile of the slices and they were HUGE (I basically had 4 Texas slices in my two NY slices lol). They placed my slices in the oven once I ordered so they were hot and delicious. read more

Walked in and tried the Staten Island slice which had meatballs on it. The crust was thin and very crisp. The tomato sauce was a bit sweet but in a good way. It was a very large slice but I guess for $6.95 it should be large. Happy that I tried it. I was so hungry I forgot to take a photo before eating it all. Sorry. read more

Came for a slice of the namesake artichoke pizza and it delivered. An excellent choice if you're looking for something different than the typical thin NY style cheese or pepperoni slice. It was very good but be warned, it sits heavy. The size of the slice and the creaminess of the sauce was such that I struggled to finish mine. read more

$8 felt wild to pay for just a pizza slice, but once I started eating the slice, it felt like the slice was large enough for two people. The first few bites of the Artichoke slice were hot, crispy, and creamy. The service was quick on a weekday evening when there wasn't a line. Without other customers dining in, it was also quiet and peaceful. read more

This was pretty good NYC pizza! The crust was exactly what I expected--crispy on the edges and soft on the inside. The sauce was some of the best pizza sauce I've tasted (great flavor!), but there was a little too much. I also liked the seasoning in the meatballs but the meatballs overall didn't add much to the pizza, I probably would've been fine with just pepperoni. There was a short line when we went, even at 1:30am; it was a little slower than expected but not too bad of a wait. read more

Finally tried Artichoke pizza. It's been on my list since moving to New York and finally I can report to you guys. It's more hyped up for what it is. The slice yes are huge and great size, I did appreciate that. But personally it's not my favorite slice in the city. (also can appreciate how large the slice is so the price is fine) The shop itself was fine - cute and the staff was nice. I got a margherita slice and met friend the artichoke. -margherita was fine, but nothing extraordinary. I'm in not rush to go back for it. - artichoke slice was also fine, it's very very cheesy. more than I initially thought it would be. I don't think I'd be able to eat more than a few bites of the artichoke one because it's very heavy but I'm still glad I tried. read more

This place is such a dumb, but I don't know how they think it's appropriate to deliver pizza like this. They literally stacked two slices on top of each other and it caused the entire bottom slice to have all of the topping removed and the entire thing was wet. I know it's cheap in the expectation is that you're drunk at 4 AM but give me a break what a dump read more

Got some good night slices, little pricey but all were good... artichoke pizza was very heavy so wouldn't eat a whole slice but great to share read more

Came here after getting some drinks in the area. One of the only slice shops open late. Got two slices to share between four people, and that was honestly more than enough. The artichoke slice was very soupy. The cream cheese was super dense and just made the crust soggy. Staten Island slice was a little better, but the crust also just couldn't hold up the sheer amount of toppings. It was also wet. A little better because it didn't feel as dense as the artichoke slice. Sauce was a little sweet. I can see that it's an appeal for the hungry and possibly drunk people because the slices are huge. The space is kind of dirty. There were toppings all over the floor and some on the tables. read more

The artichoke pizza was one of the best pizzas I've ever had. It's creamy with a bit of crunch and nothing short of a blast of flavor. That said, you can practically feel the calories as you eat it. It's very salty and the wrong bite might leave you feeling like you just ate a spoonful of artichoke dip. This pizza is not for the faint of heart. Eat responsibly. -AT read more

Came here based off a New Yorker friend recommendation. The pizza is very good, love the location it is in. Now the slices were huge, we did wait about 25 min for our food but it was no biggie as inside definitely has a good vibe. I loved the "Christmas story" lamp too. read more

Recently went on a quick trip to NYC. Stumbled upon this place in Greenwich. Ate in the parklet outside. They don't skimp on the slices here. My friend's slice was HUGE (not pictured). We got 2 different pizzas and both were so good, rich, and greasy in the best way. We lactose intolerant but sometimes you gotta eat cheese and this was worth it. I don't think there was any seating inside? This street was full of bars, restaurants, coffee shops, and comedy clubs. It was so busy. Located within walking distance to Washington Square Park and NYU. We went to a comedy club down the street after this. So much to see and do around this area if you're doing a quick NYC trip like we did. read more

2.5/3 Food + Beverages; 1/1 Service; 1/1 Value As someone who normally does not like pizza, Artichoke Basille's is perhaps the exception as a place that has evoked pizza cravings. It is not a classic NY-style slice, so if that is what you are looking for, Artichoke Basille's is not the institution for that. However, if you are looking for an absolutely massive, garlicky, dense and delicious slice, this place will deliver! This location is smaller relative to some other locations with "seating" limited to some standing counter space if you want to eat on the spot. The vibe is casual and the restaurant was clean. The staff was genial, helpful and very quick in service-- we had piping hot slices within minutes of ordering. My friend and I each got a classic artichoke slice, and he got a pepperoni slice whereas I had a vodka slice. Both slices were very cheesy, dense, savory while the undercarriage was perfectly golden and still retained a nice crisp. The artichoke slice tastes like a hot, creamy artichoke dip, whereas the vodka sauce was standard with thick cuts of cheese scattered in every bite. I'm glad I tried the vodka, although I will admit it's not my favorite offering here with the artichoke and crab being better in my opinion. As many reviews have already pointed out, the slices are massive! I had no business getting two slices for lunch, and clearly my eyes ordered what my stomach could not handle. I took the one of the slices home after struggling to finish the artichoke slice and ate the second for dinner. So while the price per slice seemingly runs steep, it is a great deal given how massive and dense each slice is ($15 for two slices). read more

Fine for late night drunchies. The pizza itself is passable but plenty of late night around here.

My buddy from NY brought me here on St. Patrick's Day. He said I had to get a slice of the artichoke pizza! And I'm glad I did. So creamy and tand tasty. It was a tough call I have to admit. There were other delicious looking slices that I wanted to get my hands on. I'll have to savor that thought until the summer when I get back here from Los Angeles. I like the simple hole in the wall vibe. Literally, pizza boxes stacked everywhere. Sodas are just served in cans from a small fridge. Good stuff! read more

I really had a hard time stomaching this pizza. It smells heavenly. However, the spinach artichoke slice is so thick/dense/heavy. Staff is great and very helpful. FYI, the slices are huge!

If you love artichoke dip you're gonna love this slice. I wish they made artichoke dip because I'd definitely buy it. The pizza base and crust are crisp delicious! The pizza slice is big and fulfilling but the sauce doesn't drip too much. A little too cheesy to my taste but it's well done and the fresh artichokes went well with the slice. Service was quick and friendly and definitely a place to stop by if you don't want to wait in line at other more famous pizza chains. I'd definitely be back to taste their margarita read more

tl;dr while the more conservative slices are solid, the polarizing artichoke slice will challenge both your palette and your stomach with its immense richness Originally founded by Francis Garcia and Sal Basille in 2008 using a family recipe, Artichoke has gained wide popularity (and vicious criticism) for their eponymous artichoke slice. The Greenwich Village outpost has a mid-sized, square indoor space to order. The black-and-white hexagon floor is dimly illuminated by a warm chandelier hanging from the burgandy pressed-tin ceiling and flourescent streetlights outside. A short, wide pizza display counter separates customers from the buzzing industrial pizza ovens in the open kitchen. To the left, barstools and pizza boxes are stacked against the wall. On the right, a portait of the Kennedy's hangs on the subway tile wall, above an L-shaped wooden counter. Spanish language music blasts loudly thoughout the space, and a wooden streatery is set up just outside. I arrived for late dinner on a weeknight, and the many other patrons looked ready to embark on a long night out. I even spied a server from Minetta's Tavern next door sneaking away on his break to grab a bite. I opted for 2 slices: Pepperoni and the signature Artichoke. The former sports a thin, flimsy crust topped with upscale, mini pepperoni slices. With sweet tomato sauce and crispy cheese pressed close to the edges, even bites without pepperoni remained tasty. Meanwhile, the huge and heavy artichoke slice would have been ideal to split between two. A savory and creamy spinach-and-artichoke dip, complete with a smattering of artichoke chunks, sat atop a surprisingly sturdy crust reminiscent of a bread bowl. However, the flavors quickly became one-dimensional without any spice, crunch, or meat to balance them out. At $14 for 2 slices, Artichoke is notably more expensive than even the most premium of NY slice shops. The pepperoni slice was enjoyable to the last bite, in the contention for the best-tasting slice in the neighborhood. But the overwhelmingly rich and filling artichoke calorie bomb squarely fits into the category of post-bar food, rather than a sober slice. Artichoke is worth a visit to see what the buzz is about, but frugal foodies and pizza traditionalists will find it hard to justify a return. read more

I don't often come to this location specifically but decided to stop by here since it was the closest to me at the time. It's fairly small inside with some seats outdoors but I don't really recommend sitting outdoors cause it didn't seem very clean. It's best to just grab and go to eat it elsewhere. I always have to get the artichoke slice and the crabmeat slice whenever I come to any of their locations. So of course I got those, along with a meatball slice to try as well. I love the unique flavors within their artichoke slice. It's one of my favorite pizzas for this reason - always so creamy and has very strong flavors, sometimes too strong for others' tastes. The slices I got that day were a bit on the salty end but I still enjoyed it. It's also on a thick crust, which is a great contrast in texture when heated/toasted well. The thick crust also helps to soak in all the flavors from the rich spinach cream sauce and blend of cheeses. The crabmeat slice is usually thin crust but the one I got that day was thick. I didn't mind it cause it was loaded with the crab toppings and the lobster sauce was so flavorful as well. On the other hand, the meatball slice was on thin crust and had a rich tomato sauce which stood out in contrast to the other 2 pizzas. I still prefer the artichoke and crabmeat though. Overall, this location isn't my favorite to go to but still pretty good. It's quick to order and they accept card here. The prices have gone up so now prices range from $6-7 depending on the slice but their slices are much bigger than average pizza slices as well. Definitely filling and tasty. read more
