Fast service. Got three slices ($9),couldn't wait 10 minutes for a pizza pie($12). Great price . Its the heart of NYC you cannot go wrong with eating pizza from anywhere around here. Visiting from FL you know I miss this thin crust goodness . Thanks guys!!

Great lunch deal! $5 for 2 slices and a soda. Sign us up! You get what you pay for here. Basic pizza. Decent size for the cost but nothing special but it suited our need (a quick bite before we hoped in line for a music festival.) Only problem- we used the bathroom before we left. No running water or soap. Then the trash barrel was placed in front of the bathroom. We moved it to get in. Upon leaving we were blocked in by the barrel. The cook helped us, moving the barrel with his bare hands then touched a huge pile of dough he was working on! (Yuck!)

Neighborhood slice Thought I would swing by since this place is close to my place. Grabbed two slices, one mushroom and one olive. They used fresh mushrooms! The slices were decent. Nice crust on them, not a lot of sauce or cheese. Nothing special I would say but got the job done. At $4 a slice, a little pricier than some other spots

Delicious. $5 lunch special (two plain slices and a Can of soda). The crust isn't soggy or floppy, even the part that supports the cheese/toppings. Love this place.

While not my favorite on the Upper East Side, the pizza here is pretty good. I had a slice of the Margherita pizza and an order of the garlic knots. They did not provide any sauce with the garlic knots. The pizza was good, but the garlic knots were just okay. They were on the small side and kind of hard. I don't think they were fresh. They accept cards here.

I worked on this side of the city for 2 years and while I was here this was my favorite pizza spot. I would always get my buffalo chicken slice with a fruit punch. Pizza has a great crust and very flavorful. If you are on the hooded east side check out Gotham Pizza it will be worth the stop.

Crust was thin and crispy. Cheese and Marinara ratio was balanced. A bit oily. Contender for best late night slice I've had so far.

Best pizza I've ever eaten! As a visitor to NYC I knew I had to try the pizza, I randomly picked Gotham Pizza for delivery to our hotel room and I was blown away how good it was. Now all other pizzas are never going to satisfy me again

My absolute favorite pizza . They always make it the way you want it. Extra saucy, just the way I like it. Delicious and crispy crust, ingredients are fresh. And service and delivery is quick. Thank you Gotham!

These guys are chill as a cucumber. They offer a fair amount of pizza options at any given time, and they're open later than many of their neighbors which can come in handy. The amount of seating is sufficient for a slower day. read more

The best $6 I spent on food in New York so far! I came in 11am on a Saturday and they have a lunch special deal daily for two slices and a soda. I normally don't like pizza crust but their dough is cooked deliciously in and out. The amount of cheese and sauce was perfect. Service was very quick the staff is swift. You have the option to sit down too. Inside had a no frills vibe. I just took mine to go so I can be a couch potato for the day. read more

This place used to be decent. Now the cheese pizza is burnt every time I order it and barely has any cheese. The crust is very thin so with next to no cheese it's not filling at all. The garlic knots are tiny and do not come with marinara. Salads come with packets of Ken's dressing (gross). There are better places. Avoid. read more

I just happened to stop in to see if its pizza was better than what I've been getting since the pandemic closed so many of the other takeout/delivery joints around me, and got a regular slice. I'm nearing 70yo, living in Manhattan and I've just eaten the most delicately crispy, thin crust pizza I have ever had in my life. IN MY LIFE!!! Obviously I will have to return and see if this time was just happenstance and not a reliable experience... but I am optimistic. I will update when I follow up. read more

I was totally dismayed when I walked into Gotham Pizza and spoke to one of the workers today. I had picked up a pie the other day and a side salad. When I got home, I opened the pizza box and there was a huge cockroach sitting in the corner of the box. I called Gotham Pizza and the same gentlemen I saw today, he said he would issue me a credit the next time I called to pick up a pizza which I thought was fair. I go there often. When I stopped by this afternoon., the head employee, (the same person I spoke to on the phone the other night), said something about issuing me a $5.00 credit or 10% of the cost of a pizza the next time I ordered. This was totally different from what he originally promised and now says a replacement pie is out if the question and I should have walked back with the pizza and the cockroach. read more

This place gets 4 stars from me almost solely because they make a really good buffalo chicken pizza. It's so rare to find good buffalo chicken pizza in the city and especially on the UES - every now and then when I'm in the mood for it, I go out of my way to place an order from Gotham for that reason alone. The rest of the slices are also good and their crust is crispy and has a really nice seasoning on it. All in all, you could do a LOT worse for pizza in the area. Prices are definitely on the high side though so it loses a star for that. A regular 16" buffalo chicken pizza is $30 or more which is definitely higher than it needs to be even though the pizza itself is really good. read more

I go to Gotham quite often, mainly out of convenience, but also because the slices, especially the Grandma, are quite delicious. They seem to use high quality ingredients. I always take out, as it is not exactly an upscale dining experience, to say the least; the place is a hole in the wall. The reason I give it 3 stars is that they are very unsanitary. The main guy there, don't know his name, has on several occasions taken my money, cash, then proceeded to turn around and start kneading the dough. On another occasion I saw flies on the pizza that was sitting out in the open behind the glass. Last week, the young pizza-maker wiped his brow, bare hand, then.... you guessed it, starting kneading the dough. They do have a sink nearby, but I have never seen them use it before sticking their hands in the dough. They probably feel the high temps of the oven will take of anything that's not supposed to be in there, so to speak. I've more recently gone to Delizia, as they do have a much nicer setup, and a dedicated pizza guy. It's just a bit out of my way, but I think worth it for peace of mind. I think a high-quality competitor could easily do very well north of 76th street on the East side. Gotham is not clean, unfortunately. read more

The crust was very thin, even for a NYC slice, and was alright, being a bit doughy at the top. I found the sauce too sweet for my liking, which almost reminded me of the rather terrible Little Italy chain. There was plenty of cheese, and it had a good pull, even if it looked a bit overcooked on top. I'm presuming the average ratings here and on other sites are because of their location and the fact that a lot of tourists who go here can't tell the difference between Joe's and a dollar slice.

A small heads-up: it's a bit tricky to find, so give yourself extra time. That said, the hidden, underground subway setting is part of the charm and makes the whole experience feel unique.

Personally prefer the margarita as it seems to be a more well-rounded pizza and the tomato just can't be missed. It was pretty packed inside when we got there and took the bar seating, so would probably recommend a reservation for larger parties (2+) on evenings. Definitely one of my top neopolitan pizza spots in NYC!

Returned to one of my favorite pizza eateries and had to share the exact same meal that made me…read morefeel that way. 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. The bits of bacon, combined with the spiciness of the pepper spices, made this a perfect starter. The entree was also shared and it was the Spicoli 2.0 Pizza. I cannot recommend this pie, enough. 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. Each spoonful of those strawberries, dancing with the firm custard and glaze, made this a stupendous cap to the meal.

Vile, disgusting pizza. The pies are aggressively salty, overpriced, and really have very little…read moreflavor and character. It also did not help that I was seated at the bar... 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 bar is a great bonus--well-stocked and a great place to hang while you wait for a table.

Walking into Bardough will make you want to kill your phone the second you hit the bottom step…read morebecause the ambiance here is dialed in perfectly. 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!

The calamari in the seafood was slightly overcooked but it was plentiful with clams, mussels, and shrimp as well. Overall, the restaurant was busy at 5:30pm on a Tuesday and we were glad to be able to grab seats at the bar. I would go again if I were seeing a show in the neighborhood but not for the food itself.

You will get a text when the table is ready with 10 min to get there. It is a very small diner, with a cool vibe. You're there for the food, nothing fancy.

Hands down the BEST pancakes we've ever had in life. 1 plate comes with 2 pancakes and are enough to share. But not too much if you're only getting pancakes for a solo serving, you'll be able to finish. We shared the pancakes and also got a breakfast sandwich.

I got here on Monday…read moremorning at around 11:00 am to put my name down for a table of 2 and there was already an hour and 45 minute wait. After running a couple of errands while waiting for the table to be ready, we were seated outside at the patio after an hour and 45 minutes. We ordered the famous honey butter pancakes, the korean wings, and the breakfast sandwich with hash brown, scrambled eggs, and sausage. The honey butter pancakes were pretty good but kinda drenched in the butter that made it hard to finish. The korean wings were also alright but the batter to me was kinda thick and heavy and lacked crispiness. The best item we ordered was the breakfast sandwich with hashbrown, scrambled eggs, and sausage. I think the eggs are cooked with cheese, and as someone who typically does not eat cheese, I didn't mind it. I don't know if I'll be back again - I think the concept of an asian twist on the classic diner does sound intriguing but difficult to execute. I also wasn't a big fan of the wait time. If you typically like heavier, diner food then this spot might be the place for you!

They don't take online reservations for groups over 5, so we called to make one for our group of 6. It was pretty busy Friday night, so would recommend. The service was great; they drew the cutest card when they found out it was my brother's birthday and let us bring a cake. And they also offered hair ties to the people with long hair.

I couldn't believe the nightmare I experienced with Gotham Pizza. The staff on the phone sounded like they'd rather be anywhere else than taking my order. And don't even get me started on the delivery driver--they must have taken a detour to the North Pole because my food arrived colder than an iceberg. To top it off, they managed to forget half my order. Save yourself the disappointment and go elsewhere for your pizza fix. read more

I've only been here for pick up, can't speak to the delivery. They have a great margarita slice, but the real star is the grandma slice which is the best in the city. The service is completely fine. They are not particularly friendly but nor are they rude. This is my favorite pizza place in the neighborhood for take out slices, but some think there's not enough variety as they only have 3 kinds of pizza. read more

Gotham Pizza is to die for. Great price. Amazing delivery speed. And the crust don't get me started. Everybody who goes to La Mia is just a fool. La Mia is dirty and makes me throw up. Gotham Pizza is clean and tasty. The sauce is pure italian, the crust is amazing, and the cheese is perfect with a few sprinkles of real Italian aged Parmasiano Regiano Cheese. This Pizza is just outstanding. read more
