What a neat find. This place is sooo under-rated. Between the great food price (especially lunch specials) and the value (quantity and quality) it's just awesome. It's nestled in a shopping center in the busy area of the city but I assure you, it's worth the visit. Special thanks to Yelp for being that 'secret squirrel' finder for places to visit both around the country and locally. I had the philly cheese steak and being the snob I am, I was very reluctant (but you have to try right?) I'm so glad I did, the lady that recommended was spot on. I totally get why it's a regional favorite. If you're in the area and looking for a casual and delicious place, welp, you've found it! Food Taste: 5 Overall Service: 5 Value of food to cost: 5 Facility: 4 Ambiance: Open seating, not too much flair, just open place to eat. Repeat customer: yeah Dog Friendly: no read more

Decent, quick and reasonably priced pizza. This place can definitely be added to the repertoire for takeout nights. We ordered a few apps, a few pizzas and a salad for takeout, which was quoted about half an hour. We arrived right on time and the food was ready to go. Customer service was quick and efficient - not overly friendly, but definitely welcoming enough. They seemed to be pretty busy, but it wasn't chaotic. Parking lot however, was totally chaotic. There are lots of other businesses in the strip mall and it seemed to be rush hour for all of them. Appetizers: we got the toasted ravioli and the fried mushrooms. We enjoyed both, but they definitely weren't ideal as takeout. I guess that's just the price you pay with fried food, but they were both a little soggy when we made it home. The chefs salad was good, lots of toppings and everything seemed really fresh. Would order this again. Pizzas: we weren't blown away. All three of the pizzas needed some additional crisp.. in the future, I think we would request well done. Toppings weren't super plentiful. Overall, flavor was decent and I liked the sauce. Like mentioned above, it was decent and can definitely be added to the list for takeout nights! read more

Pizza was so good! Huge slices. Very NY. Whole family loved it. We would go back a million times!

Was near va beach area and needed a pizza place for his birthday. Saw the reviews and though I'd give it a try. We ordered a 14" cheese and XL deluxe. Kids loved the cheese but the deluxe was delicious. Toppings were delicious and sauce was excellent. I wish the onions were grilled but my fiancé likes the fresh cut onions. I didn't get a picture but the cheesy garlic knots were a hit as well! read more

Place was cute, little hole-in-the-wall type vibe from the outside. Ordered for a pickup for two xl pizzas, one cheese and one pepperoni. Got it, and it was hot all the way home, which is a good 15 minutes. The flavor was really nice, better than an average slice I think. And the crust held up well, no droopiness, sogginess, or too much grease. It was cooked nicely and had a little chew. It could've been cooked just a little more to get more of a crisp, but that's my bad, I should've asked for well-done or something. Definitely will be back if I'm in the area again! read more

LOVE Ray's! What a gem of a find in Virginia Beach! This New-York-style, hand-tossed pizza joint makes their dough fresh daily, and you can really taste it! We got their lunch special, which came with a drink; I had the Vegetarian (bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, black olives, and tomatoes), while the hubs had the Cheese - the crust was thin, crisp, and yummy, and the toppings and the cheese were super plentiful! These slices came out piping hot, and I am just drooling, thinking about their deliciousness! Besides pizza, they also have various appetizers, salads, pasta and entrees, calzones, stromboli, cold and hot subs, and daily lunch specials. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and there were plenty of seats to dine-in. Can't wait to go back! +tasty NY-style pizza! +dough made fresh daily! +daily lunch specials! +friendly staff! +plenty of parking in the strip plaza lot read more

The pizza was sooo good Prob top 10 I've had Very cheesy Great flavor Fair prices read more

Ambiance: Ray's has the feel of a mom and pop pizza joint. The ambiance was a bit cold and boring though. The coolest part of the decor are the novelty New York City License Plates sitting above the service counter. They could really pep the joint up with some New York Sports Jumbo Fat Head Wall Art and even New York City wallpaper would be really cool. Anyway the ambience was 1.75 Stars Service: Is not on the high priority list. Cordial enough, but not warm or welcoming. More of the "what can I get ya" vibe. Thats cool In New York but this is VA. No one followed up to see if I liked the food or see if I wanted a refill. Had to go up with my cup and lid to ask for the refill. Brought my food to the table but no smile or happy greeting. No one came to clear my plate after I was done. So Service was the bare minimum. It gets 1Star Food: The Pizza ordered Slice was traditional New York Style. Good crispy undercarriage and back crust was to crunchy due to the need reheat. I'm ok with that as all New York lunch slices are like that. I'm sure the fresh cooked full pies have amazing crusts. The meat toppings were the usual vendor supplied Roma Branded: Pepperoni, Sausage, Ground Beef, the Mushrooms appeared to be fresh sliced. The sauce basic red pizza sauce may or may not be from a can and dressed up. Cheese was melting and had great pull. But the slices needed a little more heating. I ate both slices though. It was standard quick stop pizza. I would order take out full pie from here but probably won't dine in again. All in all Food gets 1.25 Stars Total Score: 3 Stars read more

Stopped in to pick up pizza to go. First time here. We are visiting our Sailor. We ordered a large pepperoni & cheese. The place was really cool and has a lot of NY memorabilia. Our order didn't take long. Pizza was still hot and fresh by the time we made it back to our room. The crust is not too thick or thin. It's the perfect thickness for NY style pizza. Perfect mixture of crisp & chewy crust. We will definitely be back! read more

We dropped by Rays Ny Pizza for a quick dinner. Its located off Newtown Rd in a strip mall close to the Blvd. Our order was to go.I will admit i had to call a few times to get through. So they may get alot of phone orders. The food was ready when we got there... 20 minutes or less. Great!! We ordered cheese steak subs with fries and it comes with a free soda. It was a reasonable price. I requested they add mozzarella cheese and put the lettuce and tomatoes on the side so my sandwich wouldn't get soggy. The lady on the phone was nice and she said my request would be fine. Customer service was cool with me. The sub was pretty good. It was flavorful and filling.... I must admit it was nap time right after i ate it... Lol. So thats a plus!! I will be returning to try the pizza at some point or maybe another sub. But if your looking for a decent cheese steak this place will do. I give them 4 stars. read more

I called a dinner order in to Rays while we were visiting Norfolk. Wow, WHAT a treat. The specialty pizza was made just as ordered, no cheese, for an allergy sufferer and my grilled chicken salad was GENEROUS with juicy, nicely- seasoned chicken and salad vegetables. Plenty of dressing came on the side so I could add the amount I wanted. We visit once every few months and I already look forward to ordering from Rays NY Pizza again. There was a busy flow of customers, most of whom were picking up take-out orders like me. Comfortable coming and going ....just came for the delicious food. read more

Best pizza in town. We have tried them all. A little extra sauce at no charge also. Fast service, friendly people

Had a chicken parmigiana sandwich and it was great, lots of cheese and plenty of chicken best I had in the area, will definitely be back soon read more

The pizza is good, and the food is good! The staff is nice as well. My issue with the restaurant is its cleanliness. I've experience with roaches there. read more

Some of the best pizza I've ever had in Virginia. Used to get the lunch special once a week, but no longer work in the area so I get a whole pizza. So delicious and the leftovers are just as good! They offer a dining/waiting area but you won't get a waiter or waitress. I usually do to-go and would recommend ordering ahead because they get pretty busy and can have a long wait time. It's definitely worth the wait! Always fresh, perfect amount of cheese, sauce and crust. They never disappoint read more

Ray's NY Pizza - Spinach and feta pizza - Pizza Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

This place never disappoints! Today I decided to try new items. I ordered shrimp Alfredo and a sausage/pepperoni calzone. The pasta dinner comes with garlic bread and a side salad that had mushrooms red onion tomato bell pepper and mozzarella cheese. Pasta has plenty of sauce and was enough to feed at least 2-3 people. The calzone is full of cheese and plenty of meat. Came with a side of marinara. Ray's continues to be one of my favorites. A must try! read more

Ray's is our go to local pizza delivery. It started out as not having a lot of options and thinking Ray's was pretty good. I'm not exactly sure how it happened, but we basically have a full blown addiction now and look forward to the weekend nights with no plans so we can order Ray's (affectionately always referred to as "Ray's Famous New York Pizza in our house). It's fairly standard of what you would expect out of New York pizza, albeit maybe with a little more cheese... and I think that's what makes it so good. We've also discovered that it is somehow even better when reheated the next day in the oven or toaster oven. Breakfast pizza IS a thing around here. We have tried a few of the sides, and while they've all been pretty good, the cheesy garlic bread is by far our fave. So. Much. Garlic. Ray's is also perfect if you're trying to feed a large group. Overall pizzas are pretty inexpensive for a local shop, and they have a 24" Giant option. I know this because my husband once accidentally ordered this, resulting in pizza for most meals for the week. It wasn't the worst thing. I swear no one is paying us to write this review. We just genuinely love Ray's New York Pizza. read more

Ray's NY Pizza - Our go to: sausage and pepperoni. - Pizza Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

Shout out to good pizza. My Wife lived in NYC for ten years. I've been there many times. If this place was up there, would I still go? Yes, I would. The pizza is your typical thin crust New York style pizza. Full of flavor, lots of taste in the dough, and what I like in particular is the dough is just perfectly crisp but not burnt, if that makes sense. The pizza slices are large so that is important when you are doing the trademark one handed pizza fold to take that first bite. Since this is the time of Covid, they have great safety protocols, and you can only order to take out which is fine by me. The service is excellent. They are all super nice in there and the one thing I noticed right away is they are all working real hard back there making that pizza! Well done. I'm a regular. read more

Picked up Dinner here a few days ago, and the Take-Out was fine. My Wife and I enjoyed our Meals very much. The only reason for the 3 Stars is because 1 or 2 Workers behind the Counter were not wearing Facial Masks at all. I am now kind of hesitant to order more Food from here now with COVID-19 still around if they are not protecting not only themselves, but their Customers as well. Will have to decide in the future if my Wife and I will order Food from here again. read more

The food is ALWAYS DELISH. Great prices. I had delivery and the food was delivered fast and was still hit. LOVE THIS PLACE! read more

Some friends and I ordered from Ray's while having a get together pre-COVID 19 and it's just taken me a while to catch up on my reviews. I was skeptical when my friend said it was "real" NY style pizza because that seems to be a schtick around here that never quite pans out to be true. We placed our order and then drove over to pick it up. It's located in a strip mall and the interior is fairly unassuming. Looks like it hasn't been updated in years. The staff was friendly though, and you could see them making your pizza from scratch. The pizza ended up being HUGE, so in that sense, yes on the NY style. In terms of crust, sauce, and overall taste, it's definitely one of the better ones I've had on the peninsula, but I still wouldn't call it *true* NY style. It was tasty though so I can't complain. Try it out -- maybe it's just what you're looking for. read more

We ordered a pizza for delivery and it was delicious! I would order from here again. It is NY style and much better than several other places around here that I have tried. The greek salad could have had more lettuce but had a ton of feta and a decent amount of toppings. read more

Almost 4 years later, & I'm back. WOW, time flies!! It was cold outside, I didn't feel like cooking dinner, and had a sudden major pang for HOT pizza. We were in the area and saw on Yelp that Ray's has a 14" Special for $10.99. Let's do this. Restaurant was empty & my daughter was skeptical. I told her it gets PACKED during lunch. There were several specials & we chose the $10.99 two topping just to try. We didn't want to go overboard in case we didn't like it. We sat in front of the kitchen window and loved how we could watch the makings of our pie! The waitress was attentive, accommodating, and brought us plates, cheese, drinks, etc. After talking and observing the establishment, our pizza arrived HOT out of the oven. We were so excited!! A hot meal I actually didn't cook! Our first bite was love. Crisp on the bottom, cheesy, flavorful crust, and just delicious all the way thorough. A lot more textures and depth than other local NY Style pizza establishments. Definitely fresh vegetables or shall I say, fungi!? Oh, can't forget ricotta! Gotta have that premium topping!! Def check this spot out. Ray's has been our go to for the past several months now. Flavor & service have been consistent. read more

Unfortunately, the crust of the pizza we received had no flavor and was like thin cardboard. The top was a thin greasy mess. There were some good reviews so we thought we would try Ray's. We we will not order here again. read more

I w tried several items from this establishment and all were just gross. Couldn't finish. The pizza was a greasy mess. Stromboli was 90% cheese, and the cheesesteak meat was definitely mystery meat. I wanted to like this place so bad because of the ratings but please save your money and appetite. read more

The pizza is AWESOME! The wings are AWESOME! Customer service not so much. While I am aware the businesses have no control over GrubHub delivery they should have something in place to compensate or consequence for poor service from them. Having your food order simply placed on your front porch without any notification from the delivery person is unacceptable. No text, no knock on the door or ringing of the doorbell! Really?! I had my porch light on & curtains open & somehow missed the person. 30 minutes later, ice cold pizza & wings. Just a sorry is not enough. I feel we should have been offered a free app or something! Grubhub had nothing other than they would give the driver a bad review. I think I should have the option to revoke my 20% tip they got! read more

Awesome NY style pizza. Pastas as huge and great taste!!! Delivery is pretty fast but I wouldn't suggest ordering if you're starving if you can't wait. read more

This place was the closest to our hotel, we came around 9pm and ordered a large pepperoni pizza with some wings for $16.99. Pizza came out nice and hot where the cheese was all gooey and the crust was crunchy and chewy. The wings were crunchy!! i love crispy wings, so if you are looking forward to some wet wings, these are not it. We had the mild flavored one, it does have the buffalo tang to it but no spice!! I wanted to try the garlic knots as it has high reviews, maybe next time when I'm in the area!! Overall I would come back!! read more

Ok ya'll, this play is EXACTLY what iv been looking for to replicate the NY pizza taste. Right when you walk in they have the vintage looking menu, to the pizza in the silver slabs on display. Its just the simplest of decor. The pizza though, the thin, greasy, floppy.....ness. That is what I have been missing. Everything was great and they also sell by the slices(decent price). The toppings were a plenty and like I said, this is as close to you can get for that NY style pizza which lots of places around here claim. read more

Ray's NY Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

First things first: I'm a 43 year old closet fat kid who has traveled this country and the world sampling every type of pie there is. Second: I don't owe Ray a damn thing, I do not know the people who work at "Ray's NY Pizza" nor am I affiliated with the business in any way. That being said.... Ray's NY pizza makes one the best pies I've had in VA, and are in the top 10 worldwide. Yeah, yeah, you can get a pie w Kobe beef, black truffle dust and unicorn s#it on it for a few $$$/$$$$ in some far flung gourmet enclave served by the Virgin Mary. Doesn't impress me. For a regular guy with a regular wallet who's; had NY style in every new England state, Chicago deep dish in IL, sampled Boston Bar pie in every bar in MA and been fortunate enough to have Mediterranean style pie in Greece and Italy; Ray's is the only place I will buy a pizza from in Virginia Beach. The ingredients are quality, the dough is perfect, the crust is always perfect, the people are nice and the price is equal to the product. Bon ape tit. read more

So my family and I saw this on yelp and decided to give it a try. Looked fairly close so not too far out of our area. Let me just say, after tonight, I won't ever deal with this place again. I'm privy to mistakes, but you messed up not one, but BOTH of my pizzas. Not to mention the gentleman who took my call not only confirmed my order and what it was, but even after admitting it was their fault when I told him what I got from them there was no attempt to resolve or see what they could do. you know what a got, sly snickering and big idk what to do from here. Like seriously?! If you go to a food place and they give you the wrong food you fix it, and see if 1. The person can come pick it up, or 2. Deliver it yourselves which as I understood I was outside of their radius. But guess what, another idk and call grub hub frim the guy on the line and the only sorry i got was as he snickered again before we terminated the call. All in all pizza was mediocre, cold, and wrong. Ill recommend Sals to my friends and coworkers from now on. In summary for the management You made the order completely wrong You made no attempt to try and resolve this And you relied on food services to fix YOUR employees mistakes. read more

Surprisingly, yes this is NY-style pizza. I stopped in and got two slices of regular. Nom nom! The true test is if they make a real Sicilian pie. Next time I swing by, I'll ask! read more
