Huge Portions, Definitely Share 1 between 3 people. Pizza itself is OK, gets pretty chewy and too much dough in one mouthful sometimes.

Joe's Pizza is famous pizza spot around NYC. It is know for its quintessential NYC pizza slice of thin crust. This location was super busy and there was a line outside the door, even at midnight on a Thursday. However, the line did move quickly inside. There are not any chairs inside, just bar tables to stand around, although there did seem to be a small table with a few chairs outside. Some of the bar tables had shakers with extra chili flakes or parmesan. The pizza slice gets put into their oven to be warmed to the crisp (if it has been left out for a while), so I would say that the service was excellent for that consideration. My friends and I shared a slice of the Supreme. It was SO good! I had heard this was an overrated spot, but the taste of the onions and sausage on a thin and crispy crust was fantastic. It was pretty large in size and could be shared with others. I would definitely come back to try their other pizza slices. Very solid spot to me. read more

For web-slingers and pizza aficionados, it's always the perfect day to grab a slice - or a whole pie - of Joe's. Iconically known as the workplace of Peter Parker in the original Spider-Man movie, I knew it was mandatory to pay a visit during a very Spider-Man focused weekend. Now I'm sure there are cheaper slices available elsewhere - these range about $5-6 per slice, but they're really delicious. I'm a big fan of the thin crust and simple yet yummy toppings. We went 2 times during our trip - first ordering 2 pepperoni and later a Caprese, White, and Supreme. They were all great, but my favorite was the classic pepperoni. If you're going with a group of more than 2 people and don't all mind getting the same flavor, I recommend waiting in line next door - which is where they sell by the pie only. Both lines move relatively quickly, but some times are definitely more popular than others (weekend nights). You can honestly expect minimal eating space because there's so many people trying to be in there, but we got lucky and were able to eat at one of the countertops on the side. They also have additional seasonings available such as parmesan cheese, oregano, garlic powder, and chili flakes. Definitely willing to come back next time I'm near Times Square! read more

You can't visit New York and not have a slice of NY pizza! We chose to grab a slice at Joe's after we finished touring a nearby museum. Note: there is an entrance for whole pies, a walk-up counter for gelato, and a different entrance for those just wanting a slice. There was a line out the door when we arrived in the middle of the afternoon, but it moved fairly quickly. We waited maybe 30 minutes. And we each had a slice of the supreme. The pizza was delicious! There are several small counter areas where you can eat your slice inside but no table seating. read more

My first introduction to a real New York style pizza in the heart of Time Square. There was a small line but everything moved quickly. The crust is nothing like any other pizza I've had. Thin, crisp, fresh nothing like a doughy pizza that makes you bloated after a couple of slice. Flavor wise is nothing ordinary, it's the crust that really stands out the most after taking that first bite. I wish to find a close similar here in DFW. read more

The little things that makes NY unique is where every corner you'll find pizza shops. Aside from this place being famous from the movie Spider-Man I'd say it's one of the better slice, might be best slice around Time Square. I know everybody have their own favorites but this one is the closest to where we were staying and keeping the rotation of pizza going since it's always has a line. There may be a wait but you know that slice hasn't been sitting there for a good while. It has the classic characteristics of a great NY style pizza. You just really don't know how to explain it. read more

Excited to try NY pizza on our arrival, we visited here because it was nearby. Standing room only in a tight space here. We ordered a whole pie to share and had to secure a coveted high top to open it. Service moves fast but the pizza was just ok. There was way too much grease for me. read more

Pretty awesome pizza but it had super thin for the price and wait! It was a fun place with traditional New York pizza but for me it was missing that wow factor. Extra hard cheese or spice was definitely missing. Come here if you want dependable pizza in a good location! read more

We waited in line in the cold for 45 min. In typical New York fashion we heard locals walking by grumbling how this place is not worth it. Still it was our first stop in NY and we wanted to give it a shot. Sadly the pizza was not great. We ordered I think all the flavors and not one was good. The veggie pizza with broccoli was especially not great. I wasn't a fan of all the condiments like garlic powder, Italian seasoning, Parmesan, just laying around in plastic tubs for all the patrons to pass around. I'm sure this is a New York thing but we couldn't eat comfortably standing with people bumping into us and our pizza was cold despite eating inside. We even had some patrons asking us if we could order for them so they didn't have to wait in line. Our friends back at home felt the same about this place. Service is fine and everyone moves quickly but the pizza wasn't anything memorable. I wouldn't wait in line for this place and the locals were right lol. read more

So we were coming back from Sarge's and thought - what the heck, let's grab a quick slice. I wasn't paying attention and did not realize this is in/near Times Square. With Times Square crowds on a Saturday night. So, there was a line - maybe took 25 minutes. I stood in line for an average slice of cheese pizza. It would be 4 stars in South Carolina. In NYC? Middle of the road. I will say, the ambiance is this joint was awesome. Hopping vibe for sure. I would not go back - even without a line. Way too many other pizza slices to have. :-) read more

Likes are long but go quick. The pizza does taste amazing but finding a spot to eat is challenging. We got lucky and unlucky. Got a spot inside by the window and while the flies all over weren't too much of an issue, the little roaches crawling around were annoying. I get this places is popular, but it's still gross to be eating and having roaches crawling right by your pizza. read more

Midnight on a Friday and Joe's was hoppin'! The line for both slices and whole pies was out the door and it took me a good half an hour to get my slice. I went for the cheese and it hit the spot. Reheated upon ordering, the slice came out super hot! Everything a good NY slice should be: crispy crust (including the bottom!) with just the right amount of cheese to pizza sauce ratio. $5 per slice is a decent "cheap eat" late night snack in the city. read more

Hearing about Joe's, I was expecting something more, but I would say it was a good NY pizza. Not great or anything to make it stand out, but a solid "good." Fortunately, when I got there, there was no line. The place is small with VERY limited seating so it can get crowded, even with no line out the door. I ordered 3 slices (Supreme, Caprese, and Pepperoni) and I enjoyed all of them. Their system seems efficient so I would imagine if there was a line, it would go rather quickly. The crust was a bit too hard for me, but if you're looking for a classic New York style pizza, large thin, foldable slices, Joe's is definitely an option for you. read more

One of the staples of NYC pizza market. This chain has been operating since 1975. Everyone bragged about it so I had to get it. Service is good and prompt. Pizza is ready in 15 minutes, which in my case was less time for me to walk from hotel and pick it up. This location had two storefronts- one for pizza by the slice and the other for the full pie. Full pie line is shorter though still formidable. Line by the slice stretches around the corner. Pizza itself is all right. Toppings are pretty average and crust is chewy as it should be. Little bit too hard on my opinion. As a tourist - it was a must try. However - I wouldn't do it again. read more

While back in town we finally decided to try this tourist spot just for the heck of it. I ordered a slice of cheese pizza and it was very underwhelming. Just ok, nothing memorable or to talk about. Not sure if other locations are better but this was not worth standing in line for. The service was good and fast though, I'll say that. read more

8.5/10 Tried three slices during my visit: the Pepperoni, Meat Lovers, and Plain Cheese. Overall, I can definitely see why this place is considered classic New York-style pizza. The slices were huge, thin, and had that signature foldable crust with a great balance of crispness and chew. The Pepperoni was one of my favorites. It came loaded with generous amounts of pepperoni, and the thin crust let all the flavors shine without feeling too heavy. Simple, classic, and really satisfying. The standout, though, was the Meat Lovers. I'm usually not the biggest fan of combination pizzas, but this one completely changed my mind. Every bite was packed with flavor, and the generous toppings were well-balanced without overwhelming the crust. It was easily the highlight of the meal. The Plain Cheese was the weakest of the three not because it was bad, but because it was exactly what you'd expect from a classic cheese slice. It had a nice cheesy flavor and solid texture, just nothing particularly memorable compared to the other two. Service was impressively fast despite the long line, and the Spider-Man-themed décor gave the restaurant a fun, unique New York vibe. Overall, I really enjoyed the pizza and can confidently say it lived up to the New York-style reputation. If I had to compare it to Pizza My Heart, I'd give this place a slight edge. read more

My go-to standard NY pizza slice. Food: 5. Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4 Cost to worth it rating: 3 Opentableable: no Return worthiness: yes Highlights: - Always have a bunch of options: cheese, fresh mozzarella, pepperoni, combo, spinach were all great. - Nice crispy thin crust and thin out it through the warmer before they hand it to you do you can still get great flavor even if it's not a freshly made one. - Separate store for ordering slices or full pies which helps them be more efficient - Open late: 3am on weeknights and later on weekends - Will give you a box when you order several slices Midlights: - Don't know which slices they'll have in case you have your favorite you are hoping for Lowlights: - Can be a crazy long line read more

We rolled into our hotel around midnight and immediately had one thing on our minds: New York pizza. Luckily, this spot was super close by. There was no line at that hour, so we got served right away. The pizza itself had really good flavor and completely hit the spot for a late-night craving. The only minor downside was that the crust was very heavy on the chew--my jaw actually started to hurt a bit from chewing the dough toward the end of the meal! Other than that, it was so good. Definitely a solid, reliable must-try if you're in the area and looking for a classic New York pizza slice! read more

Have you really been to New York if you don't stop for a slice? Joe's has so many locations now, not just the little East Village stall, and it's nice to be able to get a floppy, fold-and-stuff-your-face piece of pizza in almost any part of town. That said, it's just not as good as I remembered. Still good, but I think maybe half the magic is eating it right after you stumble out of a nearby bar. read more

When I see the Empire State Building, I always imagine two things: King Kong climbing up the antenna and folding a slice of Joe's Pizza before scarfing it down. So for this visit to the Big Apple, we hightailed it to Joe's for two slices of cheese, a Caprese, and even a Sicilian to change things up. The cheese slices were perfect as expected - crispy thin crust with just enough char, foldable, of course. The Caprese was fresh with smooth mozzarella and bright basil, and the Sicilian was thick and airy, adding crisp to each bite. Another visit to Joe's and another satisfied belly. Til' next time, because I'm definitely coming back again. FYI, Joe's has opened another stand next door for whole pies only, so the line to the slice counter was a bit shorter. read more

Everyone said go here, so we did and we were so satisfied with our New York pizza experience. First of all the line almost scared us off. It was a very long line for single slices, but there was another area where you could order whole pies and wine was not as long. We decided to forgo the very long line and go a whole pie. Great decision. Foldable, tasty crust, slice of cheese = excellent New York style pizza. read more

JOE'S PIZZA @ TIMES SQUARE BROADWAY Getting here by subway, Uber, or carpool is definitely your best bet because driving in this area is super hectic. There are always a ton of people, and parking isn't ideal. My friends and I took the subway since our hotel was in Times Square, and it was only a short walk from there. This spot has been viral for years, especially since it was featured in Spider-Man. Inside, they even have a wall with photos of celebrities who've visited like Kim Kardashian and Jimmy Fallon which adds to the hype. When we got there, the line was out the door, but don't let that scare you, it moves pretty fast. We only waited about 10 minutes before getting our slices. A classic cheese slice is $5, and toppings go for $6 or more. I kept it simple with a plain cheese pizza, and honestly, it was really solid. It's your classic New York thin slice, simple, crispy, and satisfying. The staff were super friendly, and there's plenty of seating inside. They also have garlic, parmesan, and parsley on the side, which is a nice touch. Overall, the vibes were great, the energy was lively, and it definitely lives up to the hype. It does get really busy, but I'd say it's 100% worth the wait. read more

Line out the door. Worth the wait. I recommend the cheese pizza. It had a great crispy undercarriage. Anything more than the cheese was a little floppy. Minimal seating inside. For larger groups, go next door and just order a whole pie. I don't know where you're going to sit, but the line is faster. read more

Love Joe's but for this location, it's a madhouse...especially during weekends or holidays. Waited 60mins line to get in, in order to order. Then took another hour to get 2 pizzas. It just likes sardines packed. We were there around 10pm and decided to get pizza (whole pie since the other sliced side is as packed as this one and might as well get the whole since we're here for the TS midnight billboards shown. Staff are nice and friendly and the foods are just delicious with thinly NY style. Just simply yum. read more

One of those popular spots that is always busy. There are two locations next to each other side by side. One sells whole pies only and one sells slices. They have their pizza assembly line down pat so even though the line is long it moves quickly. Overall a very good pizza. Wouldn't say it's the best but definitely worth a try if you are in NYC. Pizza is crunchier than I expected... reminds me more of New Haven style than NYC (which isn't a bad thing). read more

If I get asked for an NYC pizza recommendation, I'd offer up Joe's Pizza as well. It's in the theater district, has long lines out the door and pizza boxes stacked up to ceiling height; a crew that is proficient in assembly line style operation. You see all kinds of customers standing around, enjoying the folds of their super thin slices. Those that are obvious tourists. Those that are working the day and taking a lunch break. I swear I saw someone in a suit, wouldn't surprise me if they came from Wall St.! Some folks are perched against a wall, some sitting outside on a too narrow bench that is crooked. Most didn't take off their jacket. My point is, people don't care if they're eating comfortably at Joe's. They just want the pizza by the slice! Now some do order whole pies, but if you only have room for one giant slice of pizza, make it the pepperoni. It is perfectly greasy (not overly, but not under impression by any means), with pepperoni sizes that cover the pizza so well that you're sure to get some every bite, while not too small that they risk burning or curl up too much. The sauce has a hint of sweetness and spiciness; not to mention the dough has the foldability and chewiness - you won't want to throw away the excessive crust. The only reason I'm not giving a 5 star is that it didn't impress me as much as the pizza place I tried ~two decade ago in NYC. I don't even remember what pizza joint that was, it may even have gone out of business. But it is like first love, you only remember the good. read more

A trip to Times Square and after fighting through a crowd to get to the Jelly Cats at FAO Swartz, we stumbled upon this gem. It was oddly a Sunday and we were actually walking a few blocks to meet others for dinner, but I came across this place and couldn't help but stop for a slice...as a snack! And I'm glad I did! it restored my faith in NY pizza, reminded me that NY pizza could never taste like any normal NY pizza even if they said it was NY pizza, but this was definitely NY PIZZA! We got a slice of pepperoni and a slice of Margherita and it just melted in my mouth. The flavors, the perfection of the thin crust, the seasoning -- I wish I lived much closer! We also got garlic knots which were awesome also! I enjoyed the sitting at the counter experience and having an ice cold coke with my slice. It was the best snack before my next dinner meal and I cannot complain at all! This is definitely one of my favorite pizza places in NY! read more

This place might be overhyped to some people, but I really enjoyed it. There are two store fronts next to each other - one for whole pies (shorter) and one for slices only (really long line). We didn't want a whole pie, so we opted to stand in the other line. Even though it was long, the employees did a great job of keeping the line moving. Like other reviewers said, there is limited seating both inside and outside. We were luckily enough to snag a seat outside. On to the pizza! We ordered a slice of the supreme and the white sauce. Both were flavorful in their own way. The crust was amazing! They also have imported coke and sprite. We definitely could've had another slice each and will be returning on our next trip to NY. read more

We were drawn in by the long long line so we ordered a slice of cheese pizza to share. The crust was perfectly thin and crispy yet soft, and I felt like this was the best part of the pizza.

Next time I will try a different flavor of pizza with some toppings instead of just the cheese pizza by itself. read more

Stopped by Joe's Pizza after landing and it lived up to the hype. We tried a few slices--cheese, margherita, and mushroom with sausage--and all of them were solid. The cheese slice is as classic as it gets: thin, foldable, good balance of crust and cheese. Margherita was a bit lighter, and the mushroom with sausage had more flavor if you want something less basic. Nothing fancy, just really good, straightforward pizza. Easy spot if you want a reliable slice without overthinking it. read more

While visiting New York, I had to stop by the infamous Joe's Pizza since it's such a well-known spot. There was a line out the door with people waiting to grab a slice, which definitely shows how popular it is. The service was very fast and efficient, and the staff kept the line moving quickly, which I appreciated. They have a small amount of seating inside and some seating outside, making it convenient if you want to grab a quick bite and go. That said, I personally didn't see the hype. The slice was decent, but I've honestly had better pizza in Florida. It wasn't bad by any means, but it didn't stand out to me enough to justify the long line or the reputation. If you're in the area and curious, it's worth trying once just to experience it for yourself. For me though, it's probably not a place I'd go out of my way to visit again. read more
