    Plain slice with a coke
    Lawrence S.

    This spot is OFFICIAL! Definitely a Tribeca gem iykyk. Small but beautiful inside old New York vibes. Little Tv mounted above the prep station playing baseball. Wooden floors. No non sense staff. The chicken parm looks scrumptious. Made me kinda wish I ordered something else.

    Counter at Il Mattone

    So I was downtown and I needed a quick bite and my homie Mel from Bubbys told me about this spot. He said their Pizza is official.. So in NYC that means something.. So off I went to Il Mattone. I looked at their Pizzas on the counter and it did look official. So I copped me a slice.. And I must say.. This spot is a hidden gem down in this Tribecca neighborhood. I eat a lot of pizza and let me tell you... This spot will not disappoint! I mean I had to order another slice! That's how you know if a pizza is good. The slice had the perfect cheese to sauce ratio. The crust was crispy which I love. The sauce flavor was perfect. I could definitely taste a bit of oregano. But not overwhelming at all. It was so good. You can order slices, pies and they have other plates you can order. Service was good. It's a Pizza shop. Guys were super cool. It's a small spot so not much going on other than orders being taken and they have one 2 seater table.. It definitely came in handy as I sat down and enjoyed my 2 delicious Cheese slices. So if you're in the Tribeca neighborhood and you are craving some pizza, this will definitely do the job! Definitely will not disappoint. Will grab yourself a slice or something down here. Have a great one everyone !

    Il Matone serves up an amazing thin and crispy New York slice. There's a lot of construction scaffolding near the entrance, so it's kind of easy to miss if you're just walking by. The slices are well balanced with melty cheese and flavorful toppings. These slices have no flop. If you like your pizza thin and crispy, stop here for a slice or two. There's not really anywhere to sit, but eating a slice on the sidewalk adds to the New York experience.

    Chicken Cutlet and Vodka Sauce sandwich

    This was one of the best chicken parm vodka sandwiches we've ever had. I loved that it had a perfect amount of sauce ratio where it was dripping all over me but plenty for the sandwich and you could still taste the flavors of the cutlet. It's a to go place just fyi.

    Not a huge pizza fanatic, unlike dh, but we drove allllll the way down here to try the pizza on a recommendation of a friend. It's a small, old-school pizza shop with NO lighted sineage and a handwritten menu board. The staff was friendly, New York friendly, so if you are from outside of the tri-state area, suck it up, Buttercup. Dh got a Sicilian and a slice. I opted for the Hawaiian. (YES, PINEAPPLES BELONG ON PIZZA!) Husband loved his pizza and is raving on his yelp as I type this. Personally, I've had better Hawaiian, but what I did love was the quality of the crust. The pizza crust was firm without being too hard to execute a proper New York pizza fold. It also held its form and didn't flop (which isn't necessarily a bad thing, especially with a piping hot cheese pizza) The pineapple on this slice was obviously canned, and it wasn't grill charred like you can do with fresh pineapple slices. Because of dh, I know we will be back, so I'll try a basic traditional pepperoni or plain cheese slice and try it. I'll give it 3 because Hawaiian pizza isn't as easy to pull off, but the crust was good, and it tasted good if you don't know what a Hawaiian is supposed to taste like.

    The next day we ordered a pie with a grubhub delivery. First off they delivered it way quicker than I could have walked there and back. Next, it was nice and hot. Well worth whatever it cost. The pizza itself was awesome. Tons of cheese, sauce and sausage. They did a nice job on the pizza. I highly recommend this pizza shop. Very consistent. Good yesterday and good today.

    A literal hole in the wall you might miss with all of the scaffolding. Today I was craving an old school ny slice for lunch and il mattone hit the spot. Some tips: if you use credit there's a 4 percent surcharge. A slice is $3 cash. There's literally one chair and one table if you plan to eat there. They offer $10 and $14 lunch specials which in Tribeca is quite the deal. I'll be back.

    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!
