The pepperoni pizza was awesome! Crunchy crust and great flavor. There was no way to go inside when I went so you have to order by the window but it's a great vibe in a beautiful area. Service was decent. read more

Pretty impressed with the pizza here. They're thin, crispy and easily folded in half just like how NY pizza should be. My husband and I love Sicilian pizza when we lived in New York and the ones we ordered from here didn't disappoint! We ordered our slices to-go at the window and took our pizza box down to Water Street by the Riverwalk and had lunch on a bench with views of the water. Our kids finished all their slices too, and I loved that I didn't get that bloated greasy feeling afterwards. Highly recommend. Get the Sicilian! read more

I Love NY Pizza - Cheese, Sicilian and Pepperoni slices - Pizza Near Me - Wilmington, North Carolina

Eating here was a happy little accident! We went on the ghost tour downtown and it ended at 10. We had not eaten dinner as we weren't hungry yet. We tried another pizza joint and their doors were locked, despite being during business hours, so we wandered around and happened upon this place! We all ordered a slice or two to go. I got a cheese slice and they had just pulled a pie out of the oven so I got a fresh slice! We all enjoyed our pizza immensely and two in our group even finished their second slice for breakfast the next morning, and they said it was just as good the next day! read more

DELICIOUS!! Of course the moments leading up to finding this amazing place could possibly be the reason for making this spot taste even better. That is after having a long night out in downtown Wilmington, this is the place you'd want to end your night! The cheese melts right off but has that cheese pull that you want from any pizza. The pizza crust is nicely toasted on the bottom but not rock hard. Taste exactly like an wood fired oven baked pizza. One slice, although big, is not enough so be sure to grab more than one if they havent run out by the time youre next in line! The lively seen of downtown will call you here at night for sure and you wont regret it! read more

Incredible pizza, so much flavor and totally worth every penny. I got the gyro pizza and it literally tasted like eating a gyro, tons of flavor packed in. They have a lot of different kinds so I kinda wish I ordered more to try. The staff was really friendly and they even have a takeout window which makes it super easy. Only downside is it's in a sketchy area with a lot of homeless around, but the pizza itself is amazing. read more

I Love NY Pizza - Gyro Slice - Pizza Near Me - Wilmington, North Carolina

A solid slice, about exactly what you'd expect from an NC pizza, but definitely not worth 5$ plus the tip! However I can appreciate serving by the slice, a convent NY staple that many pizza places in the area miss out on for sure! If any other spots in town are reading this, a quick slice goes along way for convenience and could be something to consider! read more

Literally the best pizza outside of ny hands down . I have never had a bad experience here .

As close to NY style pizza as you can get. Took off 1 star bc you can't call ahead as a pick-up order (tho there is a phone number listed on the website, no one will pick up) and the parking situation is terrible since it's in the middle of downtown. read more

I Love NY Pizza It's all in the name & in the crust I highly recommend you give this place a try, you will like the food and the service. read more

I went to get some pizza my grandfather confused the guy to be honest and he gave us a wrong slice and so had to go back and they resolved the issue and gave me 2 slices and I appreciated it read more

Great pizza. We stop by anytime we are in Wilmington around meal time. The sliced meatball, onion and extra cheese pizza is our favorite!

It used to be better. My wife and I got engaged in NYC. There's something so special about the city that never sleeps that they write songs and make movies about it. It's influenced popular culture and cuisine around the world. So many places claim to have REAL NYC pizza. Pre covid you could actually go inside and stand at the counter, or maybe sit at the table or two. I'd imagine covid stopped that, and they've kept their carry out model ever since. There are 3 tables and 9 chairs out on the sidewalk to give you a minute to eat your food, so don't be completely out off by the new carryout model. The pizza used to be amazing. $9.00 and change for 2 slices of carryout. The toppings, while not sparse, we're not generous. And the overall quality of the pizza was so-so. If you're looking for a quick bite to eat that won't break the bank, this is probably the place. If you're looking for the best pizza of pizza or a slice of nostalgia, keep walking. read more

Fantastic pizza definitely a taste of New York in Wilmington, good price for the size of the pie

The best pizza this side of Manhattan! Service here is excellent and can't miss going here when I'm in town!

Meat lovers pizza was very tasty! Order at the window couple of small tables in a few seats outside to eat.

Exactly what it's advertised as. I had walked past it for honestly 2 years before I was wandering Front St. looking for lunch. I had a sub in mind, but couldn't get over the thought of a slice of pizza! .I ordered two slices of cheese and a diet Coke for less than $10. They have all the usual toppings and offer most by the slice. I waited at a table on the sidewalk and my pizza was nice and hot in no time. It was crunchy and flavorful. I ate at the table and really enjoyed this spot. I usually hate outdoor tables on a busy block like this, but they're situated well enough that you are tucked out of the way and can people watch. Will add this to my lunch rotation. I'm sure its a great spot after exploring some of our downtown bars, as well. read more

Found this place just walking by and I am so glad I did! Great pizza, fast and friendly service! :)

This place is running as a takeout window in a narrow, downtown Wilmington spot. It feels very New-York-y both in appearance and aroma. I ordered online and mine was ready close to when I ordered. Most people just seemed to be walking up to the window and buying a slice, but I bought a ton of pizza. They do have a couple of tables on the sidewalk. The margherita pizza I tried seemed straightforward enough, but I really didn't like how they did it. The tomatoes were so heavy that the pizza was a bit wet, and the acidity and tartness was too much. I ended up picking off a bunch of tomatoes and saving them to mix in with other dishes, which improved the taste a bit. The garlic was spread unevenly, and the fresh mozzarella, while nice, seemed like almost an afterthought. I think I'd be much happier with a regular cheese pizza with a bit of sauce. The Sicilian pizza I got with peppers and mushrooms and liked far more. The toppings seemed fresh (I'm no fan of canned or pickled peppers or mushrooms). It was a robust and filling slice with a pleasantly browned edge. If I come back, I'll know what to order. This is not the kind of place to go if you're looking for an unconventional pizza because you have issues with wheat or dairy. It's pretty much all wheat and dairy. But the cheese quality is high, the smell tantalizing and I could easily see why their by-the-slice business was going strong. read more

Good slices late at night. Made friends in line. They know the locals here. Try it out!

Grabbed pizza here while visiting family in Wilmington. Great crust chew and overall delicious! Even got my picky nephew to eat three (huge) pieces. It is a pick up only spot - you don't even go inside, but get service through the window. read more

I purchased a large cheese pizza to go tonight. The dough: meh The sauce: meh The cheese: meh The service: ok The pizza was equivalent to a Tombstone frozen pizza. I'd try someplace else next time. read more

Amazing pizza, went here with the family while checking out the river walk. We grabbed a few slices and walked down to the park which has standing tables cause it's a grab and go place. Service was great! Will be back! read more

Really good food was ready on time solid New York style pizza. This is from a northerner too.

I Love NY Pizza is a staple of Wilmington. The service is not off the charts but it's exactly what you need. Every single time I go I feel like I'm in New York (I have yet to decide if this is a good or bad thing). The vibes here are so chaotic, but I Love NY Pizza has had my back through thick and thin. When everywhere else is closed downtown I Love NY Pizza is there. When the club has failed me I Love NY Pizza is there. When I'm bored midday I Love NY Pizza is there. When I need to feel like I'm in New York I Love NY Pizza is there. When no one else is there I Love NY Pizza is there. Day after day, night after night I Love NY Pizza is there. read more

DH and I had lunch next door but kept watching people doing take out at this pizza place. After lunch, we walked around town. On the way back to our car, I decided to order a couple slices of pizza to take home. I asked the guy not to cook it, stating I would heat the pizza in our oven. We had one with sausage and mushrooms and the other with pepperoni and mushrooms. He made sure to tell me to bake on a high heat, which I did. Excellent pizzas!! Great sauce! Great crust. We'll be back! read more

Late night pizza? This is your place. The pizza is delicious for what it is. Absolutely hits the spot. Little hole in the wall place, and the pizza guy working there when I went was a really cool dude. read more

We've been going to these guys forever, mainly because they're one of the only places you can get food in downtown during bar-hopping/party hours for some utterly unknowable reason, but I'm pretty sure tonight was our last time. First of all, you can get a whole pizza at Mellow Mushroom before they close or a DiGornio from DGX for half the price of 3 slices at this place, they even got better pizza at the fancy Italian place, Quanto Basta down the street for cheaper. I guess the extra gallon of grease costs more, you tell me, I dunno who in their right mind thinks more than $2.50 a slice plus tip for dough, cheese and toppings is reasonable, but I digress. Secondly, we had just put down about an hour's pay for 3 slices when we see the older guy flipping the dough with no hairnet or gloves on, put a finger on his nose to launch a snot rocket in the garbage can before going right back to putting his bare hands on the food, needless to say that was $18 straight in the garbage. A lot of locals give this place a pass because they think if a pizza place has NY in the name, it automatically makes it NY quality, it's not, just overpriced, greasy and gross. Sorry, not sorry, 2 stars for being one of the few food spots open at a time that makes sense in a downtown area for what it's worth. read more

Delicious pizza. My husband and I were born and raised in NJ (very close to NY) so we know great pizza. This is very close to what we grew up having. Definitely worth the stop. read more

Walk up pizza joint - take out only, no dine in. The pizza slices were a good size, most slices available are already pre made and reheated - not bad, but if you're looking for a fresh, melty pie there may be other options but in all fairness this is the only spot I have tried in the area so far. read more

I love the nostalgic of ILNY pizza always a great vibe and great food... I haven't tried the white pizza yet! Can't wait to go back so everyone runnnn don't walk! read more

Not even close to anything from NY. Crust was tough; sauce flavor just so-so. To be fair we got reheated slices so a full new pie might be better read more

If you know and love NYC pizza then you will this pizza place. We ordered slices at the walk-up only window. They have many choices already prepared. There are a couple of bistro table & chairs in front of the store to eat your delicious slices right away. Just fold in half and enjoy like a true New Yorker. read more

Love this place for a great slice of NY pizza! This location is easy to get to downtown and close to a parking deck if you're picking up takeout. They were doing only window/street side ordering or call ahead my last visit. This place has the best Buffalo pizza and is what I crave when I want those flavors. It's such a perfect balance of the heat and cheese. The white pizza is great, too! I love the foldability and would say this is the best NY foldable slice in the Wilmington area. read more

Pretty good pizza for gigantic $3 slices. Restaurant is very skinny and goes a decent amount back. Right when you walk in you can see all the pizzas ready for you. Select your pick and they toast it in their oven real quick and you're out within 5 mins. Very easy and fast for pizza that's quality in taste and size . read more

Good place to grab a quick slice downtown! A few friends of mine came to town on Cinco de Mayo weekend for a friend's birthday and were pleasantly surprised to learn that there was a bar crawl downtown that very weekend. So we all decided to do a little bar crawling for the day. Of course we needed some carbs, so a couple friends and I decided to grab some slices at I Love NY Pizza. What better meal for day drinking? The staff was great and a lot of fun. I ordered a slice of cheese. It was less than $3 and heated and ready to eat in less than 3 minutes. It was delicious and just what I needed. There isn't really a lot of parking near, but there's plenty of downtown parking lots and street parking all around. If you're downtown and want a quick bite definitely check them out. read more

Best pizza in town. Good while drunk and sober. Love the Sicilian! Great value too which is appreciated :)

I can't even begin to explain how AMAZING this pizza is. I went to Wilmington on a mini vacation and wanted something quick and easy before we hit the road back home. I looked up the reviews and knew this was my place! The employees were very nice when we entered. There were so many options, I could barely choose. I ended up getting the BBQ chicken and my friend got pepperoni and mushroom and a slice of bacon ranch pizza and all 3 were DELICIOUS... well beyond delicious. The price was just right, the service was quick and most of all, it truly tasted like authentic NY pizza. We were able to sit outside and eat and people watch which was really cool. They have limited seating but pizza is one of those things you can walk and eat if they don't have space. We got lucky because it got busy after we got our food. When I'm back in Wilmington, and I want something super quick, I'll definitely head there and grab a few slices. read more

There was a long line leading up to this place, so I was hopeful, but the pizza was so mid. If you're in Wilmington, just go to Fat Tony's or Za Pie (no affiliation, just that dang good). Line had to have been attributed just to the limited late night pizza choices for the bar hopping scene at that hour or convenience. I wouldn't voluntarily go there again during the day. The staff was very nice, I will say, though. As a 1st timer, I read the menu, and it only offered 4 types of pizza as slice choices, but after ordering, I saw others order slices of the more specialty pizzas (i.e., spinach), so I kind of had fomo and wished there was a more accurate list of what I could have ordered as a slice. read more
