Great spot for a late night eat! I opted for the plain pizza but they have soooo many pizza options for all tastebuds. The staff was friendly. We immediately found a table. My plain cheese pizza was $4 plus tax due to using a credit card. If I wasn't tired I would have looked for the $1.50 pizza in the neighborhood but no regrets. This slice was pretty big and so delicious! read more

No idea why there's so many complaints on here but the one time I dropped by to grab a slice before bar hopping, it was great. The slices are huge, it was almost the size of the tray it came on and with topping it came out to ~$5 a slice which is pretty decent considering the location. The pizza held up well with the flop test and the crust was thin and was perfectly crunchy like as soon as you bite into it it would snap off which I guess might be a personal preference. I got this tomato slice where it's just a regular slice but with copious amounts of chopped tomatoes and garlic on top and I would definitely come back just for this slice if I'm in the area and need a quick bite. read more

La Vera Pizzeria - Calzone??? Garbage - Italian Near Me - New York, New York

Mediocre Pizza. More expensive than any other pizzeria in the neighborhood. They charge an outrageous $6.99 for a topping on a large pie even if it's only on half the pie, other places charge 3 bucks. It was 56 bucks for a large pie and a salad. AND-at these exorbitant prices, they feel the need to bang you for a 3% credit card fee on top to add insult to injury. SKIP IT and try one of the many other better, less expensive pizzerias in the neighborhood! read more

Need a late night pizza slice ? Then this place is great! I stopped in after bar hoping in the area to refuel. They had tons of fresh pizzas out - Perfect for anyone looking for a variety. They were also super busy so I knew it was going to be good ! There was basic seating and overall nothing particularly spectacular about the space itself. The pizza though - perfection read more

I think it's just an Okay pizza. Only plus is that it's near Baruch but the pizza taste just okay since the dough is not to my taste and the pepperoni didn't have much flavor. Overall, not the worst but far from the best read more

It's pizza. Filled me up when I was extremely drunk but somehow the cheese was hard when it was piping hot. Pepperonis and mushrooms were kinda stale. Quick service. read more

La Vera Pizzeria - Mushroom Pepperoni - Italian Near Me - New York, New York

Ordered eggplant parm. It came with bread, pasta and salad. The flavors were good, but the texture of both the eggplant and the cheese were extremely rubbery. I would not get this again, but I am open to trying something else. it was easy to order, and the food came at the appointed time. The prices here are below market, which might account for the less than satisfactory quality. read more

It hurts my heart to have to say how dang awful this location is when the 2nd Avenue spot is so much better. This location never satisfies at all! Something is always wrong or just plain disastrous. The dishes are dry, salty, chewy, rubbery, never ever just good and fresh, (based of the three or four experiences either ordering from here or meaning to order from the better location uptown) Uptown has slipped slightly but thankfully not to this locations levels of satisfaction dereliction. read more

Solid neighborhood spot and open late. Cheap, consistent, and dependable. Quick service and the pizza slices are huge! Not the kind of pizza I am thinking about days later but gets the job done. read more

When their pizza is right, it's excellent. Stick with the slices or pies. The staff is absolutely wonderful...so nice, professional and polite. Try a meatball slice of you care for a topping. Their pepperoni is superb...not too salty. read more

Great pizza with many delicious and customizable options! We had ordered Hawaiian pizza without ham but pepperoni instead, regular cheese and chicken bacon ranch. The pie is very doughy and fresh, the toppings, cheese and sauce were all fresh as well. Appreciate them for being able to to accommodate our order. Not only is the food good, so is the pricing for a large pie. Also, always very reliable for group orders. Highly recommend!!! read more

Out on a late night walk (1am on a Thurs night/fri morning) to clear my mind after a long day of work and had a hankering for pizza - just so happened to pass by la Vera so I decided hey why not. Margherita slice for 5 bucks. Ain't bad. Big in size. Sweet sauce. Overall decent slice. Is it amazing? Not really something to write home about, but definitely would stop by again if I'm around and happen to want pizza - especially late at night! read more

Great for late night pizza! Clean atmosphere, was a bit busy around 11pm, ordered a Sicilian and a pepperoni slice, both were delicious and warmed up! Sicilian was a bit thick on the bread but the pepperoni was perfect! Would definitely come back. read more

Reliable neighborhood pizza spot. Quick and great for late nights. They have a ton of different options for slices, so you always have a ton to choose from.

One of the better affordable pizza shops in the area. There is a very nice selections of slices to choose from, good sizes for the price, and taste great! I got two slices of the mozzarella chicken slices, which went for $4.50 each. Two slices was more than enough to fill me up. Service is for the most part very friendly. Will be stopping by again in the future. read more

Very delicious slices to end our night. Everything was delicious, many different slices and style. read more

It's 10:30 PM. I've just left a comedy show at the PIT with a group of friends. I was rushing around so I did not have a chance to grab something to nosh on between work and the show. I am starving. "Let's go grab a drink somewhere that has a kitchen." Awesome, I am down, but they need to have a kitchen. I am hungry. We stop at one bar. It's closed. The next bar. The kitchen is closed. My stomach is growling. Then like an oasis in the desert, I see an illuminated sign "Pizza." Salvation. We walked in and the place was immaculately clean with tons of slice options. PRAISE BE. There's plenty of seating, so I headed to the back to lay claim to a six-top collection of tables and then head back to the counter to peruse the selection. I'd like to say I was cognizant of the full menu of slices. I'd like to say that I took my time choosing what to order. But, no. I walked up to the counter and immediately was drawn to a slice... could it be? Why yes, it is! A slice with vodka sauce, fresh mozz, and chicken?! Holy cannoli. Give me. Give me now. And it was delightful. Plus, I split a plain slice with my husband for the hell of it. Because really how can you judge a pizzeria if you don't have a baseline decider. And their plain slice was good! Great ratio of cheese, dough, and sauce. I was there with friends from out of town. Apparently, out in Los Angeles they don't have chicken bacon ranch slices. I'd call it a travesty, but goodness knows that these slices can be so hit or miss. La Vera, though. La Vera's was a home run. Possibly the best chicken bacon ranch slice I've ever had. Though my bar is low, I still think it was pretty exceptional. And then the desserts. I've grown up wary of an italian restaurant's cold case dessert items. They are always tempting, but they never quite reach your expectations. I knew all this going in, but again, Los Angeles needed to try the desserts. Who am I to say no or to pretend like I wasn't already sitting at the table ready to dig into my slices when she came back to the table with a tiramisu and a cheesecake and a cannoli. Oh the munchies. As I was still finishing my friend's chicken bacon ranch slice, she started digging into the tiramisu. It was ridiculously good considering it did come from a cold case at a pizzeria. People also had kind things to say about the cheesecake, of which I did not partake. Nor did I partake in the cannoli which is making it's way back to LA now. Happy to know this spot is here for all of my pre/post PIT needs. read more

I had warmed up pizza and garlic knots and it was still cold. Overpriced pizza and not good anyways

The sauce is really good! I've been here on multiple occasions and the sauce is great every time .

Clean, classic pizzeria vibe, radio playing, slices slingin', all that's missing are those opaque containers with colorful 'drinks'! Staff are always friendly, they remember you after a couple times in, slices are always fresh, they go to reheat 'em but I don't even need it! Ordered a couple pies in advance for a group meeting, they were hot and ready. My go-to for area recommendations on a quick meal that's not pricey. read more

I loved La Vera. For late night pizza - it was such a nice change of place to go somewhere clean, bright, and with seating. Sat for a while enjoying my slices in a place I felt bright and safe. Super kind staff, lots of pizza options, and all warmed up as you order. Of course this is not the best pizza ever, but it's better than I expected. First what I needed. Would go back, and strong recommend! read more

I thought the pizza was fire, got a slice of pepperoni and onion. And then got the chicken cutlet sub also which was delicious. Not sure why this place only has 3 stars read more

Ordered a late night delivery. They were fast and the pizza was delicious! They even sent plates and napkins even though we didn't ask for them. Thank you La Vera!! read more

This place used to be really good until they changed their entire staff and hired a bunch of rude people to work behind the counter. Spending my Friday and Saturday nights there was a routine, haven't stepped foot ever since they changed everyone. Would not recommend at all now. Food isn't the same as before, not horrible but definitely not the same. read more

The slices are too thin ... a good New York slice always needs a good crust . I got the BBQ chicken, sauce was good but again no crust and it was thin . read more

Honestly I've been eating that grilled chicken supreme wrap and I can't give this place three stars because it's probably the best sandwich/wrap situation in the neighborhood. Do yourself a favor and go buy one. read more

I was sad to see Pastafina Pizza close recently but littke did I know that a new pizzeria had opened a few blocks south on 3rd ave. I was hesitant to try it but there was no decent choicevin my area aside from overpriced Rockys. I was surprised how reasonably priced it was. The restaurant itself is clean and bright and everything on display appears to be freshly made that day. I ordered a med sausage and meatball pie for pickup and it was ready in less than 15 min. I have on other occasions tried their meatball and chicken rolls. They are very filling for under $6. I will be trying other items on the menu as the time goes by. That being said they are a welcone addition to the Kips Bay/Murray Hill area. read more

Service was fast , food was good. The pizza has a nice crunch to it. Veggies were fresh. Not bad for $4 slices. They do have a sitting area , not to crowded the guys are a little to hands on for me. The good thing is the person making the pizza isn't the same one collecting money. Thank god. read more

This place was sent from the Heavens of Pizza Gods. Me and the wife was on a NYC pizza hunt and 7 other spots let us down from the presentation to the staff. Stumbled up La Vera Pizzaria and was instantly blown away by all the many styles of pretty pizzas and warm greetings from the pleasant gentlemen behind the counter. I was going for the buffalo pizza slice until he introduced me to the bacon ranch chicken slice; Holy Shishkabab Batman!! To sum it up, this is my go to place and will bring all my out-of-town family and friends here to enjoy a true NYC pizza joint! read more

The store workers were very rude. They refused to give me the correct pizza order I paid for already. I even showed them the correct order with topping on my phone app. But they insist it's not in the receipt they got. They kept yelling at me giving me the wrong order. I lost my money and didn't even get a refund. I used to go to this store a lot but never again. Shitty service and rude workers. read more

Reliably decent pizza, and open late (2-4am, depending on the day of week). I got a slice of margarita and a slice of pepperoni with sausage-- both were good. Credit card minimum is $5, so get 2 slices ($8)! read more
