Picked up a whole plain pie to take back to NJ. It was very fresh and hot. 90 minute ride home and pizza was just perfect. Will definitely come by anytime I'm in the Bronx. read more

Very expensive for what it is. I don't care how big the slices are--not much bigger than the standard NYC slice might I add. They are pretty good, but nothing spectacular and I paid $12 for two slices... their margarita slice and eggplant were both good, eggplant was the winner on flavor. The crust was excellent on both slices, but sauce was lacking flavor on the margarita slice. Subtracting a star for price. read more

Full Moon Pizzeria you are really terrific, I had a spectacular experience here yesterday. Prices were right. Every single thing we bought was delicious and the menu itself was to die for. Workers are incredibly pleasant and service is very fast. Highly recommend - we will certainly be back to Full Moon Pizzeria for more. read more

Live only two blocks away from this place and have walked by many times when it has been quite busy. I was pleasantly surprised by the slice of cheese pizza. It was $3.50 which felt kind of expensive for the Bronx but after a late night, I would be willing to stop here. I am not sure I would pay over $6 for a slice of meat pizza but I did enjoy the cheese slice and am looking forward to the next night when I don't want to cook and get to eat here again. read more

I got the lasagna and the pizza pie with anthovies and mushrooms. I split the pizza wth 2 friends. I would say the food is pretty average but the portions of the pizza were huge. Its decent for what it is but nothing special. I wish the sauce was more flavorful. read more

I love the buffalo chicken pizza from here. They pies quality tend to better than the slices in my opinion. They don't deliver which stinks because I live just 8minutes away. I wouldn't recommend the pasta to me it wasn't seasoned and the chicken cutlet was definitely old and reheated. If you call for pick up they tend to be accurate with the estimated time. A large buffalo chicken pizza is ~$32. read more

Now thats a slice! The pizzas look like moons- which I donno if everyone wants, but I sure do! The garlic knots are like clouds! Not like rocks! The sky theme of my review is an acquired taste though. The simple NEW YORK, plain slice is the everything nice! And wHoa! A lot of toppings to choose from. I often get either that one or a slice with every single thing I can find on it, including some biscotti from down the road and a handful of pop-rocks. Great eyebrows on the main guy- what a face! In any event, this guy is impressed! read more

I just walked in for a plain slice, to my surprise the owner Stanley selfishly raised the price of a plain slice to $3.50!!! Not even in Manhattan where the rent is quadruple of what Full Moon pays for there space is a slice of pizza $3.50. As I understand it, all other pizza type plates went up in price as well. One employee said the price Increase was due to the drastic increase price of cheese. I don't believe this whatsoever. Arthur Ave alone has about 3 other pizzerias right on its strip, none of those guys have increased their prices. Must be one helluva cheese. Fact: Full Moon has always been the first pizzeria in the neighborhood to raise their prices before anyone else. Get this.. back around 2013, Full Moon was the first business as a whole that I can think of who raised their 12oz cans of soda to $1.25 each... Because you know, $1 a can isn't reasonable enough in 2013. I didn't check but it wouldn't surprise me if the can was also jacked to $1.50 or better. So now we have a .50cent price increase on a $3.00 slice.. Stanley if you're reading this.. you're a selfish business man causing pizza inflation just to deepen your pockets. My family and I aren't returning to Full Moon pizzeria, ever. Fortunately for us, we live in a great city where there's something called choices! Ivana Pizzeria & Catania pizzeria are right up the block, folks. Choices is what's great about our big city. Thanks for reading. read more

come here all the time! great atmosphere the workers are friendly. a little pricey but worth it! my fave pizza is the buffalo chicken! i want to try the pasta but i always come for the pizza lol i will report back after i try some other things! read more

A lot of my friends seem to like Full Moon, but I think it's overrated and overpriced. The pizza is decent, but it's the most expensive pizza place on Arthur Avenue; expect to spend $4 or more for a specialty slice. There is a HEAVY emphasis on Sicilian pizza, to the point that it can be difficult to get a slice of a normal pie in anything other than a really basic type like cheese or pepperoni. I generally don't like Sicilian pizza, so this is a big turn-off for me. If you're on Arthur Ave looking to get some good Italian food, you can do MUCH better than Full Moon, and cheaper, too. If you want pizza, check out Ivana's (across the street, apparently not on Yelp yet) or University (Fordham Rd. between Hoffman and Arthur). If you're willing to branch out, check out one of the delis and grab a sandwich (Casa Della Mozzarella and Tino's come to mind). Full Moon isn't bad, but there's really no reason to go here when there are so many better places nearby. read more

Perfect pizza. Thin crust. Not too sweet sauce. Nice cheese to sauce ratio. Crazy fast service. A must stop at the end of your day if you're doing some major stocking up on Arthur Ave. read more

Yes, the hype about this place is ALL TRUE. Bring your appetite because the slices are bigger than a 12" paper plate! All I got was a plain cheese slice and WOW.....crust, cheese and sauce...all AMAZING. I'm betting their other toppings don't disappoint, either. Next time I'm going to have to try the sicilian, because it also looked phenomenal. Plus, the neighborhood is completely old school and adorable...we had so much fun eating our slices by the big windows and watching all the people. I only wish I had ordered a pie to bring home and freeze. :D read more

Certainly my go-to place when in the area and has been for a couple decades. Just 10 minutes from the zoo/botanical garden, and well worth a little detour. Hearty slices, quality ingredients. read more

I love this place!! I been coming here for the past 18 yrs. Now, I bring my kids to enjoy the best pizza on earth - consistenty good!!!! There sauce is so yummy. The siciian is very good also. Prepared in a traditional pizza dough that is prepared and risen properly, the owner takes the time to prepare a dough and sauce that surpasses the typical pizza joint. I have never been disappointed even after returning numerous times over several years.... The workers don't mess around, and like what they do! Pizza is a little pricey, and seating is tight but I HIGHLY RECOMMEND FULL MOON PIZZA!!!! read more

I can't think of a time where I went there and had a less than perfect slice. Although it's typical NY pizza, it's always timed to perfection and never ever burnt. However, they are not open too late and if you get there within the hour before closing, it's slim pickings. I wish I still lived half a block away from this place. read more

Not only do they have delicious pizza, with thin crispy crust and lot's of fresh toppings and calzones packed with fresh greens, they are incredibly nice and generous. My son and I drove up to the Bronx from downtown Manhattan to explore your lovely parks and food. After a long walk we found Full Moon and ordered up a storm. I reached in my backpack for my wallet to pay, and discovered I had left it at home. We turned to leave with big apologize and the staff made us come back and eat our pizza on the house. What a great welcome to your borough! I will definitely come back, not only to settle my bill but to eat more fantastic pizza. read more

Great crust!...and I only eat the leftover crust if the crust was flavorful and it was good enough to devour (licking my lips)! The overall pizza was very delicious and I will definitely return. NYC has the best pizza hands-down and this should be a place to go if your near the Bronx. read more

Oh, full moon. You are our favorite. It's a very rare treat to go to Arthur Avenue these days, but when we do, a stop at full moon never disappoints. Cracker crisp crust with the nice and subtle cornmeal/semolina dusting on the bottom. Great sauce, great sausage. I love it - the perfect New York slice. We aren't crazy about anything but the plain and sausage slices but, you know what? That's enough to seal the deal: it really is our favorite slice place in New York. read more

We love this pizza!! I live in the Bronx, and there aren't many good pizza shops. I wish this place delivers since we live not too far. I admit that I rather go to Little Caesers or Dominos (pricey!) if I feel like pizza. read more

My sauce was bitter, it tasted spoiled. The cheese was a funny texture. The garlic knots were dry with no garlic taste. I wanted some real Italian pizza. This place is in Little Italy, but where was the Italian man? My search for good Italian pizza continues. I miss my old place. This place sucks! Well it's official as of 5 pm 7/25/15. This place gave me food poisoning! read more

Regular slice: - if you want the CRUNCHIEST slice ever, come here! Thin and crunchy. - quality of cheese was okay. - sauce was okay Veggie slice w/o sauce: - delicious but a little heavy. - would have preferred sauce on the slice instead of veggie and cheese only. - crunchy crunchy crunchy *Crunchiest slice in NYC period! * Is it the best? No. Top 10? Sure. Perhaps the marina slice w/ fresh mozzarella will bump them to top 5. *Highly recommend it. read more

The pizza here is an above average NY slice, which makes it better than probably 99% of the pizzerias in the country, but not exceptional for NYC. Given that the Bronx, even Arthur Avenue, does not have the same array of elite pizzerias as Manhattan and Brooklyn, this isn't a critical flaw. For a slice, this place is probably one of the better options in the Bronx. Although I don't like the cornmeal that is always on the bottom of the slices here. That said, if you're serious about pizza I would recommend heading roughly across the street, where you will find Zero Otto Nove, a very good Neapolitan pizzeria owned by the same guys who run Robertos. It's not the best in the city by any means, but a very good Neapolitan pie, and they use the fresh mozz from Casa Della which is the best around. Favorite thing here: Not the pizza, but the calzones. I know plenty of great pizzerias in NYC and even elsewhere, but a good calzone like the one they make here can be tough to find. read more

3 slices with toppings + 2 soft drinks came to less than $18. Not bad considering the slices are huge and toppings overflow and spill off the slice. Definitely worth the price. The place is on the corner of E 187 St and Arthur Ave., so after eating here you can go explore all the wonderful shops our Little Italy in the Bronx! Gave it 4 stars cause decor is outdated and could use a visit from HGtv. read more

Cafeteria quality, overpriced, workers didn't seem happy, tables super janky, had to load up my slices with parm and peppers to make them edible read more

Walked by , saw the outdoor cafe. Decided to get a eggplant parm hero and a chicken parm hero to go. I will start by saying that the wait was about 15 mins, when i picked up my heros to go and i got home. I discovered the chicken parm had too much breading, not enough cheese. The eggplant was tasty, but also lacked cheese and sauce which was disappointing. Sure we ate but perhaps i should have opted for the pizza as the pizza looked really good and they had 10 different kinds of pizza on display. Overall not bad but i will give them another chance.in my opinion the chicken cutlet was too thin, which caused it to be dry. read more

If this is the best slice you have ever had, you clearly have not had many slices. The location, however, cannot be beat. For a greater trip, check out Pugsley's not far away. It's not Little Italy, but it's an experience. For a Little Italy trip through pizza, go to Zero Otto Nove or Mario's nearby. read more

Hi I really was so anxious to try a nice and hot delicious slice of there Wonderful pizza. By my surprise when I got.the slice home.i notice something before taking a bite out of it that the slice was kind of shiny. So I removed some of.the cheese and when I did that I seen that the pizza was.still raw. It looks like the ones that are making it are not.paying attention to detail. Which I didn't understand because they pizza smells amazing when you go by there place or step inside it's just out of this world. Well I think looks are very deceiving n now even the smell. So I decided not to go back again. read more

This Pizza joint in the Little Italy section of the Bronx is really really good stuff. The are on the corner of 187 street and the place has a steady flow of customers. I discovered them a few years ago at one of the Italian festivals over there. The ingredients are Fresh and Top Grade. Anytime I'm up around the area I definetly stop here for a Slice or two!!! You should too!!!! read more

Great food. Great area. Great guys working there. Clean little establishment in the little Italy area of the Bronx. One of the few places I walk into and ALL of the pizza slices look good! I always want to order like 3 things when I come here. I've ordered spaghetti once and it was a lot of food. I ordered chicken Parmesan on top of spaghetti this time around and it was great. Here's a tip when u see firemen purchase food from anywhere that place is probably worth it. read more

I agree that their pizza is insanely over-priced!!! But I also am in love with their buffalo chicken pizza At first I was like eh tht duo sounds really bad but it is put together very very well and their crust is great as well. My opinion is their plain pizza is better than a lot of other pizza places I've been to read more

I'm not a huge Full Moon fan. The pizza only gets an "ehhhh" in my book and I'm always left wondering if they ever actually clean inside. :-/ Have ordered take out from them on several occasions. When I've gotten there, they just put my pizza in. If you're going to take someone's order and tell them to come in 20 minutes you should have their order ready, not make them reorder. If you're looking for a good slice, take a walk to the end of Arthur and visit Catania's. read more

I've been to Full Moon a few times, always a great experience. The prices are on the higher side for a slice of pizza, but it's definitely worth it for the taste you get! I've only ordered a normal cheese slice or pepperoni slice, nothing else. The pepperoni slice is definitely the better of the two, the dough used has the right flavor and perfect crunch to the bite. If you're ever in the Bronx, Full Moon is a place you have to stop at for s slice of pizza! read more

we began our day with a subway ride to arthur avenue's "little italy of the bronx." the pizza at full moon pizzeria elevates the ubiquitous pie to a high art of before unimaginable perfection! really, i can't believe how truly superior this 'za was to any other version i've ever had. my favorite was the broccoli, eggplant, mushroom. the slices are as big as your head and the whole underside is perfectly crisp without being hard. i don't know how they accomplish it, but it tastes like the finest freshly baked french bread in the world. the toppings are great quality and are individually cooked to perfection before being added to the pizza. even the pizza covered in veggies was perfectly crisp without any sogginess. chicago-style can't touch this. faaaaaat and happy : ) read more

As like most places on Arthur Ave, this place is slightly overpriced. The pizza, however is amazing. Definitely the best in the Bronx. Great variety of toppings too. Its situated close to many other restaurant, and across from Palombo's if you have a sweet tooth. The place has been renovated but the pizza has not changed one bit. read more

Mmmm. Pizza. Good old NY style pizza. This place has tasty, hefty slices for a decent price. They have the typical toppings (buffalo chicken, chicken parm, veggies, and so on). It's a regular pizza joint where you buy your meal and take a seat. Nothing too special, and the crust was just a *tad* too crispy and hard for me. Not inedible though, would recommend! Oh, and the garlic knots were pretty tasty and had real pieces of garlic! Yum. read more

$6 bucks for a slice. That's a damn embarrassment. Plus they add tax. Thats a joke. This is not a real deal bx pizza place. Go move to manhattan or brooklyn! If u want a real deal bx slice go to Nick's on Gunhill rd or Louie and Ernies in throggs neck! read more

Awesome plain slice, one of the best I've had. I tried the buffalo chicken slice and that was disappointing. The arancini were massive, but lacking flavor. Parking is a pain, but worth it for that plain slice alone. Place is also tight on seating, maybe seating for 30-40 total, and seems to be packed pretty regularly. read more

I'm a Bronx girl, and can honestly say it's pretty much the best pizza around this area. Wished they delivered! It's in the middle of Arthur Ave, with Fordham U crown almost always there. It's always packed, but the crowd moves quick and you can topically fiend a seat by the time your order is prepared. Great stop with kids after a day at the zoo or the botanical garden. Their regular pizza is very good. They have some specialty pizzas as well, a full salad bar, plus they make pasta. It wont disappoint! read more

The garlic knots are unbelieveable. The pizza is better than ivana and millions of times better than catania. I can't believe these places a higher rating. While full moon is lacking in their crust and especially in their sauce, they are probably the best on Arthur. Don't go anywhere else. read more
