    Our split pie
    Sparkle P.

    Sooo a fellow Yelper won an award for the most updated reviews and it seemed to be for this place. With that type of promotion WHY NOT .... We perused the menu and it appears they have a lot of specialty pies you can order and the coolest thing was that they allow you to do a "split" ...yes you read that right. Pick a specialty pizza and if you are stuck like me between making a decision ....then you select 2 and split so you can try them both. And that is what we did. When we called to order the guy was like "I can do that, no problem" Steak and cheese, along with a Sriracha basil pie ... and OMG I will admit the crust was a bit thicker and on the doughy side ...just a tad bit more than I am accustomed...but the flavors were dead on. There was a great mix of spice and tangyness. The steak and cheese was delicious. It had flavor and the meat was great. I would have liked the peppers a bit smaller, but the ingredients were evenly distributed and tasteful. We have been stepping outside the box trying to find another favorite pizza place ...so I am glad I gave this one a chance. Pick up was simple and easy. The guys were pleasant and in the zone making pies. We will be back.

    Finally got to check out this pizza place. We ordered a large pizza, half meatball half sausage and char BBQ chicken fingers. I really liked their sauce and it was very cheesy. The char barbecue fingers were great. I was turned off by the smell of cigarettes in the restaurant and seeing all the guys rolling pizza dough without gloves, but I think a lot of pizza places don't wear gloves which is kind of gross. Prices were pretty fair.

    Another Saturday, another fantastic pizza from Fatman's Pizza! As usual, the service was friendly and efficient. I called and placed an order for pickup on a Saturday around 5pm. I paid for my pizza over the phone with my credit card and was told my order would be ready in 25 minutes. When I arrived 25 minutes later, one of the employees came out to my car, with a facemask on, and asked for my name and what I ordered, then promptly brought it to my window - I don't think I was in their parking lot for more than two minutes! Now onto the good stuff. I ordered a small (12", eight slice) Poor Man's Lasagna pizza. My goodness, this pizza was delicious! To start off, I LOVED the fresh ricotta cheese - It adds so much flavor and the soft texture of the cheese makes the pizza creamy and a joy to eat. The melted mozzarella on top of the ricotta though pushes it to the next level, adding even more melty goodness and helps to keep the toppings in place on each slice. The chopped meatballs on top were phenomenal - Huge chunks that were incredibly tender and had the perfect balance of flavor and spices. Their garlic marinara sauce pairs perfectly with the toppings on this pie but it doesn't come off overly garlic-y. They also added a little herb and spices, nothing overbearing, on top of the cheese, which I thought was a nice touch. Their crust is excellent where it definitely steers more toward the Buffalo-style with being a little thicker/doughier, but this place has it so it isn't too thick and doughy, while maintaining that great chew and texture. This pizza truly does taste like you're eating a piece of lasagna! The size of the small is perfect for a big appetite like mine where you could eat it all in one sitting but not full over full (I usually skip lunch on Saturdays in preparation though :) ). This pie is definitely denser than other specialties on their menu, but I hope they don't change that, this pizza is perfect as is! A few pro-tips though: I recommend throwing the pizza into your oven, at 400 degrees, for about ten minutes when you get home as this will heat up the pizza, crisp up the crust a bit, and brown the cheese on top making it nice and gooey. Also, I ordered this pizza to be sliced into six slices instead of eight as I like having a bigger slice. I will definitely ask for my pizza to be cut into six slices from here moving forward. Fatman's Pizza once again comes through with a great specialty pizza! They've easily become my favorite pizza place in Buffalo.

    Stumbled across this place on a Step Out Buffalo page of underrated restaurants to try. Its on Niagara Falls blvd and I pass it every day and never knew it was there. They have a large menu and their prices seem to be a bit lower than competitors for what they offer. I must say their boneless bites were some of the best I have had in the area! I asked for them crispy and saucy and unlike most places that don't care, they were perfectly done. I will definitely be back and highly recommend!

    Well the clue is in the name.

    If they sold envelopes it'd be Flap Man Pizza. If they took a lot of criticism it'd be Flak Man Pizza. If they were popular for only 5 minutes, they'd be Fad Man Pizza. And if they were owned by a guy with a moustache who ran a questionable empire in Central Europe in the early 1940s, they'd be Fascist Man Empire, and probably wouldn't make very good pizza. But they do. They make wonderful pizza. And sensational sub sandwiches too... especially the chicken finger. Mmmmmmm. What to get: Pizza & Chicken Finger Subs What else: You can give me a finger but don't give me *the* finger Not only is this some of the best-tasting pizza around (and there's plenty of competition, but this is one of the best), but they also have some of the largest, heaviest and most filling slices in WNY. And don't get me started on the price. How can you only charge $2 and change for a slice twice as big as Franco's $4 slices (which are wonderful, but still). Chicken Finger subs are a Buffalo-WNY specialty, and Fat Man has one of the best 5 in the region. Only Jonny C's, Mike's (Kenmore), Mia Mangia (Transit), and not-sure-about-the-5th can really compare. You have to try a Chicken Finger sub, medium, extra saucy, to know the true wonder of it. Trust me. You'll be converted for life. Excellent service too. The guy running this place is awesome, and the cute girl who served me the other day when I was in here (who seemed new), is really friendly too. Definitely not one of the best-known or most popular pizzerias in this region full of spectacular pizzerias, but absolutely one of the best. Try the aforementioned Franco's, as well as Mattina's and Good Guys (all in the Northtowns), as well as Imperial, Bella and Mineo's (in the Southtowns) and Mr. Ventry's & Pizza Oven up in the Falls for NF Slices. But whatever you do, make sure you get down to Fat Man and try one of these too. And whatever else you do, do not sleep on the Chicken Finger Sub. It's one of the best sandwiches in the region. Nommmmm. Get it medium, extra saucy. Trust in the Fox. And whatever else you do, make sure your slice is heated up. They usually do it without you even asking, here. But just in case they don't - be sure to ask. It's so much better when it's gooey and melty and piping hot out of the oven. Speaking of ovens, would you like a bun in yours? I'm free tonight.

    My work must really like these guys. Had their pizza this time. Great dough and crust. Sauce was sweet and zesty. Pizza is everywhere in a city like this, but this is definitely a great choice! Hope to try more stuff soon!

    I've had a lot of this type of pizza. It's cheesy, cup & char pepperoni, a little greasy (though, not as bad as some), with a softer crust. What makes this pizza solid is the spicy pepperoni, paired with a slightly sweeter sauce and their nicely charred but not overly thick crust. Overall it's a solid WNY style pizza.

    Not too bad. Got a large pizza sliced in squares and a turkey sub! The sub was bomb. Tasty, fresh, and thick lol. My only downside was the pie needed to be put in the oven for 5-10 minutes as it was undercooked. Also, be aware the sauce came pretty sweet. It would be nice to have been warned of that but it almost was too sweet. It's pizza not candy!

    I'm always on the lookout, keeping my ear to the ground, for great pizza places in Buffalo…read more Although sometimes, I just want to try some place new. I had heard good things about Naked City Pizza, so I decided to take a break from my usual spots and give them a try and overall, I am very pleased! I called around 4:45pm on a Saturday and a gentleman took my order. He was courteous and friendly and said my order would be ready in 25-30 minutes. I arrived about 30 minutes later, easily finding a parking spot in their large parking lot, which is a mixture of pavement and dirt/gravel. Walking inside the shop, it's similar to most Buffalo pizza shops where it's relatively small and really about take-out, not for dining in. There were a few young guys working the counter and ovens, they were able to get me in and out quickly. From the limited time I was inside, the workers were friendly enough, they seemed to get along well. For dinner, I ordered a Quarter Sheet (6 slices) Steak and Three Cheese pizza but the gentleman who took my order over the phone put my order in as a Half Sheet (12 slices). They realized the mistake too late and gave me the Half Sheet for the Quarter Sheet price! I really do appreciate that, it's great customer service. I have half a pizza leftover for a quick dinner now! Naked City Pizza nails the traditional Buffalo-style with a doughier undercarriage and nice crispy, chewy crust. The dough was airy but it didn't seem as "heavy" as many other pizza places around Buffalo, but maybe I was just REALLY hungry. haha For their steak pizza, it seems like they use thicker pieces of steak, which was great, definitely felt more substantial. Most steak pizzas come topped with banana, hot, or sweet (bell/green) peppers, but Naked City uses roasted red peppers, which are sweet and have a more distinct flavor and softer texture - I was impressed, this paired VERY well with the other components! Along with them, there's also onions on top. The three cheeses used are cheddar, mozzarella, and parmesan, which of course are delicious. In addition to the roasted sweet peppers, the other component that I was surprised by was the white garlic sauce as the base. Steak pizzas around Buffalo vary from using a "hoagie oil/sauce" to just a huge variety of cheeses, no base sauce of any kind. I tend to stay away from white sauce on pizza as it's usually associated with garlic (I don't want my breath to be too... fragrant haha), but this wasn't too garlic-y, I didn't feel like I was "wearing it". I enjoyed the added creaminess the white sauce added to this pie. After six slices, I stopped myself and put the other half in the freezer. The six slices I had were delicious and filled me up nicely - The squares were cut nicely and they were plenty filling with tons of meat and cheese. I have a feeling these will reheat in the oven nicely. Looking at the prices, I was impressed too with how affordable Naked City Pizza is! All-in-all, I'm glad I gave Naked City Pizza a chance and had a great experience! The staff are friendly enough and quick, it's easy to get in and out quickly, and the pizza is traditional Buffalo-style so it's on the heartier end while being affordable. I look forward to ordering and trying a red sauce pizza from Naked City Pizza to see how sweet their sauce is.

Id order again. The hubby went with a steak hoagie and a chicken taco. Nothing special. The steak hoagie really had no flavor, and the chicken taco was super soggy so the tortilla basically fell apart. Again, I didn't think the chicken had any flavor. I ordered a half of there "bomb sub". Glad I got a half because it is huge!!! It's made up of ham, capocolla, sausage and ham! They did not hold back on the meat. I actually took half off and made another sandwich out of it. This was good, only thing I asked for garlic ailoli and either they forgot or hardly put any on, it was dry, but I'd definitely order again. Half for 9.00 and like I said made another meal out of it, can't beat it.
