    Came here twice, once for happy hour and sat at the bar. The bartender was super friendly and nice and we loved sitting there. It was my friend's birthday and they brought a cake which was a nice touch as well. We started with the happy hour spritz ($10) which was great and moved to beers ($7). We tried both the meatball and chicken parm sliders on happy hour ($10) and they were both delicious. We also got the killer bee pizza to split and it was also quite tasty. Overall, a great spot to chill for happy hour and definitely plan on coming back again.

    Don Ho Pizza, Shrimp Scampi Pizza

    Service: 3.7/5 Food: 4.4/5 Price: $$$ ($30-50) I didn't know it was connected to another restaurant named A Side + that's how they came up with the name. Very cute concept. Pretty slow at 9PM on a Saturday... I'm not sure how busy A side was. Staff was friendly + tried to make conversation. Crispy crust on the pizza + didn't get too stale after it cooled down at the end of the meal. *would recommend What I Ordered: - Black Kale Salad*: apricots + peanuts are a good addition, vinaigrette pooling at the bottom got very sour so mix well, not sure what makes it "black" - Don Ho*: sweet pineapple + sauce balances out the savory prosciutto + the dollop of cheese - Shrimp Scampi Pizza: a little too oily/buttery for me, but I should've expected that, good garlic flavor + a little bit too spicy (lots of pre-added chili flakes)

    Solid pizza joint / bar with nice space to sit down and lively atmosphere great for catching up and chatting. Pizza itself is not really NY style the crust is on the puffier side, but it was nice and a bit of char on the crust to add smokier flavors. They also had a nice variety of pizza topping combos, my favorite was the killer bee which had honey, sopressata (Italian dry salami / sausage), and chili oil. The clams were actually quite decent too - nice texture and flavor and weren't fishy / overcooked at all! Their mai tais are also pretty strong , definitely felt it!

    Killer Bee Pizza
    Chandler R.

    Please ignore the half eaten pizza, I devoured it the moment it hit the counter! It was delicious! I had the 'Killer Bee' which has a bit of Honey on it that really pulled everything together. The ambiance of the restaurant is very cozy and the staff is incredibly friendly and hard working. For a drink I had the Cuba Libre which was very tasty.

    We came here for dinner on a Tuesday night. We narrowed it down to having shrimp scampi pizza for dinner. It had great flavor and texture along with a bit of bite. Great casual spot for pizza!

    A while back, I made some "pizza for dinner" plans in NYC with my Pasta-Crazed Compadre. We talked about the kind of pizza restaurant we wanted to dine at right before we both boarded our respective flights for the Big Apple. The challenge my Compadre posed for me was to find us a decidedly upscale venue with top-shelf pies. I did some Yelp searching on the in-bound flight, and I settled on B-Side Pizza because it had over 1400 hundred Yelp reviews with a 4.5 average, it was within walking distance from my Times Square hotel, and (most importantly) it had what sounded like some seriously legit pies. Game on! B-Side is decidedly different from my usual NYC pizza haunts. It's fairly upscale as pizza joints go; no back-alley entrance, no greasy counters to lean against, no knife fights in the back... The pizzas here are not served by the slice; they're Neapolitan rather than strictly NY-style. Baked in a Coal-fired pizza oven, their pies all have unique names to suggest the toppings used. My Pastra-crazed Compadre and I walked in to B-Side at around 10:30pm. It was just as well that our visit was spontaneous, as they don't take reservations. Despite the late hour on a Thursday night, the place was damn-near full! The host/waiter who greeted us offered us a choice of either two seats at the bar or a pair of seats at a window counter; we opted for the former so we could watch (and smell!) the pizzas being made. My Campadre and I had both just flown in from the West Coast (me from SoCal and her from SF) and we were both hungry enough to join the Donner Party. We decided to start things off with two pies to share, and an order of Brocollini to illustrate exactly how civilized we are ;-) Despite how crowded the venue was, service was excellent and totally on-point. My Pastra-crazed Compadre got a spot-on cocktail recommendation, and I got a couple of recommendations (with tastes of each included) for some of the local draft beer. The first thing to arrive was the Brocollini; while it was acceptable (given how famished we were) it was rubbery, undercooked, and quite unappetizing. We both struggled to eat a few bites, then gave up and asked our served to take it away. When we told him what we thought of the dish, he removed it from our bill with no questions asked. Our two pies arrived at the same time. Here's what we got: - Spicoli ($21) - tomato, mozzarella, roasted mushrooms, carmalized onions, Parmesan Apparently named for Sean Penn's surfer-Dude character in Fast Times at Ridgemont High, this pie was pretty darn good. The dough was perfectly cooked and flavorful,with just the right amount of char, and the toppings were all obviously premium and very generously applied. I could easily have devoured one of these all by myself, but then I tried a slice from the Killer Bee... - Killer Bee ($24) - tomato, mozzarella, sopressata, garlic purée, chili oil, and honey (infused) This amazing pie was obviously named for the principle creators of the most distinctive ingredient used herein - the honey. Like the Spicoli, the dough is totally legit and perfectly cooked, but then they take it up a notch. The combination of the sopressata and the honey that's infused into the cheese and sauce create a unique flavor profile that I've never run across before. While I'm no stranger to dipping my pizza crusts into honey, the notion of infusing honey into the toppings is simply brilliant! Between the two of us, we completely demolished our Killer Bee and about half of the Spicoli. Not that there was anything wrong with the latter, it's just that the former was so damn GOOD! When next I return to NYC, I'll make a point to visit B-Side again to enjoy another Killer Bee, and I look forward to checking out one or two of their other pies too. I'll visit Prince Street pizza again as well; while both venues are exceptional examples of what they each do best, there's unquestionably room in my life for both ends of this particular spectrum :-)

    Cesar salad
    Emile L.

    Cozy pizza Napoletana place. Authentic 00 flour crust, fresh ingredients. The Cesar salad was also authentic as it is similar to the original invented in Mexico - grilled lettuce and fresh made dressing- probably the best Cesar I have had in NY. The cauliflower cacio Pepe was also really good. Service was quick and polite. Will definitely be back.

    Great casual Italian food. . Cozy and fun vibe. Perfect meal for comfort. Homemade pasta and thoughtful attention to each plate. Rock solid service. Will def be here again.

    Calamari
    Emily H.

    Big shout-out to Cara T for suggesting B Side to me for my recent NYC trip! This pizza. LORT! It was creative, delicious and perfect for our group. Some highlights: * Interesting pizza! After enjoying so much pizza in my life, it can be hard to be crafty with it, but B Side does this so well. The Killer Bee pizza -- I can see why this is a Yelper fave. Made with house marinara, mozzarella, sopressata, garlic puree, chili oil and honey, this is sweet with just a bit of spicy bite to it. And the Shrimp Scampi pizza -- why isn't this more of a thing?! I also appreciated how this pizza was cooked so that the vodka sauce and mozzarella held the shrimp in place rather than them sliding off your slice. * The crust on these pizzas was also a highlight. Again, I've had my fair share of pizza, so I've learned just how much a great, chewy crust can add to a pie. This had that. * The calamari was a delight. No notes. Would get those again. * B Side sports a great beer, wine and cocktail list -- as you can imagine by the fact that "wine bar" is in its name. And this pizza can definitely be dressed up by a good cocktail. We were able to get a table for the five of us easily on a Friday night. And our server was efficient and friendly. We were able to eat and leave in time to make the show we had tickets for. This would be a regular spot for me if I lived near Hell's Kitchen or Midtown.

    Great pizza, wine, and service! Location was great...walking distance from Times Square, but far enough from the hustle and bustle. Didn't get pictures of apps, but these were equally as good as pizza. I believe we ordered the roasted brussel sprouts and the burrata. Will definitely return!

    The bar at A side
    Becky L.

    The killer bee pizza was amazing! I don't even eat pepperoni but they use Soppressata . It was crisped to perfection! And the roasted Brussel sprouts with an egg was the craziest but surprisingly wonderful bite! Loved our meal here! Thank you!

    Stopped here for late night pizza in NYC after a show, and it delivered. It's not the BEST meal I've ever had but for late night - 11 pm it was super delicious (best thing we ate that day) and the staff was super friendly. We sat outside, right below the sign and we had a lot of little green friends, but they use wooden plates and bowls which is super cute. We shared the brocollini - tons of lemon and capers and cheese, and the raddichio ceasar - not a lot of the ceasar taste but TONS of cheesse and delicious nonetheless. It's woodfire pizza, so thin and chewy crust. I will say our margherita pizza was a bit soggy but it wasn't that bad. I would happily come back - it was close to our hotel in Hell's Kitchen, and there were a few other establishments.

    Classic Tiramisu
    Sam P.

    This has become our go to place on our first night in the city as I love the small, cozy vibe; the proximity to the hotel and the food! We began with the Burrata which was fantastic as always and the kale salad - that was great but seems to have changed recipe as it used to be black kale and I think contain mint which set it apart from the norm - still good though! Then we enjoyed two of their pizzas - new to us and so, so good was the shrimp scampi !! Loved it ! Has to end with their tiramisu to round out another great meal at B-side! Fantastic service, food and always a great atmosphere! Will always return to B side!

    New here, do I need to tip?

    Yes, it's customary to tip 15 - 22% of the total bill at a place like this where there is sit-down service.

    Any vegan options?

    Vegetarian options, but you can ask them to customize it a bit to make it vegan.

    Are there gluten free options?

    They don't do gluten free pizza that I'm aware of, but they have some really awesome sides that are gluten free and could definitely fill a person up.

It was dark when we entered the coffee shop but an ajar door gave way to the bar. The decor is a homage to the works of Nikola Tesla, which can be seen in the subtle electric theme throughout the space and the naming of the cocktails. The space isn't too large - the bar and stools take up most of the space but they also have some booths/tables. The place looks great. The cocktail menu is very creative - I got one of their seasonal mixes that was actually two drinks in one. The main cocktail was meant to be sipped first and they provided a small glass of beer to be sipped after. The name escapes me but it was very good. Since we had cocktails at dinner, we only stayed for one round. Service was good, and overall I enjoyed my time at Patent Pending. I would definitely return to explore more of their menu.
