    I've had Chicago deep dish pizza twice before: one at the gold standard Lou Malnati's and once in the O'Hare food court. My experience at Emmett's fell somewhere in between those two precedents. Like others I suspect, we grabbed two bar seats here after the wait at Raku was too long. The homemade potato chips we ordered during the 30 minute wait for the pizza were excellent. I would definitely come back to have these again with a beer. As for the pizza, the structural integrity post-cut left something to be desired, but the flavors of the slightly sweet sauce were very good. We ordered with fresh garlic as a topping, which might have been a mistake, as the odor was a bit too strong.

    Was able to get a spot for 2 at the bar on a Friday night without a reservation by showing up at 6:30! (I would highly recommend getting a reservation if you can though!) Pizza was fantastic , we just got a pepperoni pie, but then got hot honey and some of the paprika ranch to dip it in and it was fantastic. Love the little pizza timer they bring out to make sure that the pizza is a perfect level of doneness! They no longer have outdoor seating so the seats are pretty limited, but it's a super cute restaurant, perfect for a date night, and also a great spot to bring someone from out of town for a classic NYC pizza experience!

    I think this is the only spot in NYC for authentic Chicago Deep Dish. The pizza was solid. I was also so pleasantly surprised at how wonderful the Greek salad was. The service was quick. The deep dish takes 30 minutes to bake, which we were told upon ordering. It came out at almost 30 mins on the dot. So that was pretty awesome. The space itself is a bit tight but, I think they do the best they can with the space they have. It's always full because the food speaks for itself!

    Deep dish with Sausage and Pepperoni
    Miguel R.

    Emmett's is my favorite spot for deep-dish pizza in New York. I usually order the classic deep dish with sausage and pepperoni, along with a Caesar salad, and it's more than enough food for 3-4 people. The pizza is rich, hearty, and extremely satisfying, exactly what you want from this style, without feeling overdone. It does take a bit of time to cook, but it's absolutely worth the wait. This is the kind of pizza you plan for, sit back, and enjoy. A go-to when you're craving deep dish done right in NYC.

    The pizza was great. The fries were great and the atmosphere was great! Inside felt well lived in and cozy, the perfect atmosphere for eating such good pizza. The staff was friendly acknowledge and even though they were very busy, they were very attentive. The prices are reasonable, the service is exceptional, And if you are a match book collector like Me, they have really cute ones!

    Chicago Style Hot Dog
    Andrew L.

    Terrific Chicago style deep dish pizza. Had not had deep dish pizza in NYC since Uno Pizzeria closed so wanted to give Emmett's a try. Started with an Arugula Salad and a Chicago Style Hot Dog but it was the deep dish pizza that was the star. Had one with pepperoni, pineapple and extra cheese and one with sausage and caramelized onions - both were excellent. Very small but lively restaurant with not a lot of tables. Can feel a little cramped when crowded but the pizza makes it worthwhile.

    I can't speak to the service because I had this pizza delivered, but when I've passed by before, this looked like a lively after-work hangout spot. The cheese pull on the deep dish pizza is never-ending. I wish that the tomato sauce was spread more evenly around the pizza, but I found that the sauce slips off anyway as you grab a slice. While this might not be the most convenient pizza to eat, chances are this deep dish pizza will satisfy your deep dish cravings! The crust is toasted perfectly golden and isn't hard. The bread under the sauce and cheese is soft and fluffy.

    If you are a New Yorker who is craving deep dish, Chicago-style pizza, look no further! I grabbed takeout, but the interior was exposed brick walls, tons of people at the bar, and super cozy. My order was on time and perfect. I'll be back!

    The sausage classic
    Dre G.

    Let's talk about this vibes that come from here it's all chill, easy to enjoy an afternoon of deep dish pizza. The sausage classic.! It's just pure goodness. Start off with mozzarella sticks. Service is amazing. It's quick you get time to relax and just chill and totally love it.

    We got patio seating outside and it was pretty warm with the heaters. I decided to try their Deep Dish Pizzas since I missed out my chance on trying it in Chicago. It was pretty good but this was definitely a heavy pizza. This Buds For You ($29) - lots of veggies (contains spinach, mushrooms and onions). Well flavored however I still preferred the Meat Lover more. It was more cheesy and I just like meat better. 3 STARS Meat Lover ($33) - lots of meat. Pepperoni, sausage, Italian beef. Very cheesy. I would order this again. 4 STARS. One pie is more than enough for 2 people. We had to packed the rest of the pizzas to go since we couldn't finish it. Service was good. We got water and take out box/bags when requested.

    Pizza arrived raw. Had to throw it out. This is so gross and disappointing. I will never eat here again.

    Best gluten-free pizza I have ever had. [Full Stop]…read more I've had a lot of GF pizza. I've tried to come here in the past -- but it didn't work out. I ordered via Uber Eats this time, and MAN -- I was blown away. I honestly thought that they had screwed up and sent me a gluten version. I checked the order and receipt. It was so good -- the crust so chewy with bite -- but light and airy and tight -- the cheese and toppings all great and fresh and delicious. It tasted like an awesome piece of NYC pizza. I was so happy. I did some Claude sleuthing -- and think I'm onto their magic with the crust -- and am excitedly going to experiment in my home kitchen in the coming weeks (Neapolitan oven, be damned!).

Located at 309 West 50th Street in New York City's Hell's Kitchen neighborhood, the casual eatery has an extensive list of pizzas. Don Antonio has over 30 types of Neapolitan pizzas, and the menu is a little bit daunting at first due to so many options, but even the pickiest eater will find something they'll want to eat. To top that off, Caporuscio recently debuted a brand new pizza tasting menu that features a curated lineup of never-before-seen pizza napoletana, and seven varieties of pizza fritta (fried pizza). Lastly, the entire pizza menu is now available gluten-free. With vast offerings, they are ambitious, and every dish is outstanding.

We started with two fabulous drinks: An Espresso Martini and their signature Limoncello Margarita. We shared the Shaved Brussel Sprout Salad and it was fabulous.

You will taste flavors that you've probably never experienced before with a pizza. Also, the different textures of the arugula, creaminess of the cheese, and the perfect crust will make it a memorable selection. For dessert, we shared the Buttermilk Panna Cotta.

RIGHT BY THE DOOR. Do people not realize that putting a bar near a door on a freezing cold night benefits no one? Good thing I did not order alcohol or I would have froze to death. Seriously, none of the pies stood out in grand memory. All I can think of is, well, nothing. Nothing positive anyway. The names of the pies are funny, and the staff is friendly, but besides that, the quality of the food for lack of a better word, dare I say it, sucks. Hoping to salvage the meal, I ordered their Chicken Parmesan. It was the Hail Mary pass that unfortunately did not connect. The cutlets are overcooked and dry, and the red sauce cooked with it has minimal tomato flavor. At least the spaghetti is cooked to a nice al dente and mellow garlic butter flavor, but like the sauce cooked in, it is also minimal. Part of the problem I feel is they are trying to go for a vibe that has a New York and modern feel. It does not work. Stay true to one or the other. Or at least look at other business models. I will use another pizzeria in Bushwick that exemplifies it perfectly. It is a hipster pizzeria in a hipster neighborhood. Through balance, it creates an ambiance both welcoming and warm without losing any of its Bushwick character. It does this by not beating you over the head with hipster vibes, just enough to let you know that you are in Bushwick. The band Franz Ferdinand was playing as I was wrapping up. Rather than take the pizza out, I suggest you throw it out. Overall pizza rating: 1.7/5

The first thing you notice is the main bar wall, with its exposed centuries-old brick that has survived every bit of chaos this city could throw at it. It's subtly backlit from with a warm, amber glow that highlights every single historic groove and imperfection, making the whole room look like it's breathing. I have to say the centerpiece of the entire narrow room is the bar itself, and let me tell you, it is an absolute stunner of a contrast. Instead of the usual dark, sticky tavern wood, they've dropped in a long, continuous slab of pristine, elegantly smooth white stone. It glows under the soft lighting like a block of polished marble. There are no strobe lights and no obnoxious, skull-rattling bass in this joint. Instead, the room is wrapped in a blanket of incredibly chill music that matches the pulse of the room perfectly. It's just loud enough to drown out the noise in your own head, but quiet enough that you don't have to scream over the smooth white counter to be heard. People aren't here to be seen on TikTok; they're here to disappear for an hour or three. You slide into a chair, order a proper Old Fashioned from a bartender who doesn't rush the pour, and watch the ice melt against the amber-lit brick. It's the ultimate underground exhale--a perfect, narrow slice of peace in a city that never shuts up. Cheers!
