    Cheese pizza
    Duane H.

    Solid pizza spot with heroes, calzones, pasta and various entree options. They have a lunch special from 11:30a to 3p, 2 plain slices and drink for $6.50. Very NYC

    Vodka pizza

    Listen, there's a lot of pizza places around this area, but this place tastes the cake for the best vodka slice. This is the best slice. I've had in a very long time 10 out of 10. Highly recommend kiss the Chef on the mouth.

    While walking back to Penn station, I stumbled upon Rocco's pizza. The chicken pizza was quite tasty, but could've used slight more sauce, 7/10. My ultimate favorite was the grandmas pepperoni Sicilian. It tasted absolutely delicious, so delicious I had to buy another 10/10. If I lived close by, this would be my go to pizza spot.

    Stopped in here while walking down the street to Empire Cake. Any time there is a slice house I am more than game with swinging in and grabbing a few. Not a large area - but for grab n go and a few tables inside and outside. They weren't busy as it was right after the lunch crowd. The guy working took our order and got us in and out quickly. We shared a grandma (square with pepperoni) as well as a margherita slice. Both were VERY GOOD. Arguably the two best slices of the weekend. Dough was fresh, proper bake on each, and fresh tasting ingredients. I noticed they also had pasta options as well, so this could be a fallback if in the area and reservations elsewhere falls through.

    My friend and I came to NYC to catch a show at Racket NYC and stumbled upon this place. So happy we did. Small place with limited seating, maybe for 16 people. If that's the case then grab a couple of slices to go. I had a fantastic Greek salad which had tons of feta, Kalamata olives and a tasty house dressing. I also had a Grandma Slice of pepperoni. Cupped pepperoni! Perfection! My buddy had a couple of Grandma Slices as well with the whole wheat and said it was delicious. We shared an order of garlic knots and I don't know if it is legal to walk out of here without getting them. Plenty of soda choices including Jarritos. They do have more than pizza on the menu and will probably try an entree next time I am in the Chelsey District.

    Good place to go for the lunch special. Don't expect anything fancy or mind blowing. Two mediocre slices and a can of soda for $6.50 - which is a pretty great deal in the city. The restaurant is clean and cuter than you expect it to be. Small, with a few tables and chairs should you choose to eat there. The cashier will act less than thrilled that you have decided to visit the establishment, but consider it part of the New York ambiance. Very important note: the lunch special begins at 11:30am. Avoid like the plague from 11:30am-12:30pm on weekdays. There are schools nearby and the entire place gets overrun with loud tweens and teens. Nightmare fuel, for real. Otherwise, drop in and enjoy a cheap bite to eat.

    The food here was pretty good for a first visit but the slices were deff a must with the variety as well ( kiss the fingers). The service was quick an easy didn't have to struggle on ordering anything. It was also decorated like something out of a small Italian spot not like a pizzeria but more of a small villa on the coast but then you look out the window and it's the big apple. For a person who's always on the go for a few slices was deff a must go deff gonna order else be prepaid es for a star update after the second visit

    Small place with limited inside seating, making takeout the option that day. Luckily, I've done delivery twice and their pizza travels well. Unlike a lot of other places, they don't skimp on the toppings because you order more than one. I worked in a pizzeria during college, making thousands of pies...so I have some experience to make that statement. Some restaurants spread the ingredients further out to increase the profit margin, which negates your enjoyment. They'll say it creates a better visual, which it BS...it's $ they're looking at. Some alleged foodies have bought that BS and spread "the visual" perspective on their reviews and social media. You can prefer plain cheese pizza because it's a taste preference, and we all have them...but show me someone who orders toppings on a pie and doesn't want said toppings in each bite, and I'll call fraud. Pizza is a guilty pleasure food. Look at the pie and you can see Rocco's philosophy on pizza; pepperoni cups filled with unctuous spice and chunks or unsymmetrical balls of ground Italian sausage. I haven't had the opportunity to eat table-side there yet, but if it gets to your home in a box this good, fresh out of the oven on your table has to be better. Cheers

    Standard cheap NYC pizza. Tastes like all the other pizza shops. Their Grandma slice looked fantastic and I wish I had gotten that instead.

    GRANDMA SLICE
    Jeffrey C.

    This grandma slice is the best slice in New York City . If you are looking for great slice . This is place to be good drinks and great food

    I can't believe I didn't get a picture of this pizza but I vote the cheese slice here too be the best in New York or had the crispness, the sauce the cheese!! Enriching delicious you can think of was there. Keep it up Roccos!!

    Are you going to the Joyce for a wonderful evening of dance ?…read more Do you prefer a location close by ? Is inexpensive Italian food a preferred choice ? If you answered "yes" to all three, then Fumo is a place to seriously consider. The restaurant is bright and comfortable. The service is fast and attentive. The menu has lots of excellent choices. The portions are generous. The prices are very reasonable. There you go ! Fumo is for you, (at least the Chelsea location) is for you. Any drawbacks ? youi ask.....well, yes, there is one, and it should be cosnidered. The restaurant is so so so popular that the noise level can be a bit ..... shall we say "daunting." Fumo is a great place but if you want a soft, quiet place to have a serious conversation, maybe save it for another time....

    The experience was very disappointing. The menu labels many items as gluten free, but I was told…read morethere's cross contamination. This means those dishes aren't truly gluten free for people with celiac disease or anyone who has to avoid gluten. When I pointed that out to my server, he just gave me a blank stare. I tried to explain why labeling those items as gluten free is misleading, but he seemed completely disinterested, even annoyed, dismissed what I was saying, and simply responded that the pasta is gluten free. I acknowledged that the server doesn't write the menu, but absolutely zero customer service skills. The service overall was lacking. Aside from taking our order, no one checked on us or came back to see if we needed anything. Our server was just hanging out chatting up the hostess. We had to request the bill from the manager & paid at the hostess stand. Before paying, I spoke with the manager and explained what had occured. He was more professional than the server, but he was still dismissive of my concerns and of the service we received. Management seemed happy enough to promote the "option". The food was okay, definitely not enough to make up for the poor service and handling of a serious dietary issue. Needless to say I will not be returning.

Water and excellent bread arrived immediately and the waiter was helpful describing dishes and giving advice. Salads were fresh and crisp.

Seafood dishes had large amounts of fresh seafood and the veal picatta had the lemony flavor you expect without excessive acidity. Dessert was tasty and innovative. The ricotta based cheese cake wasn't as smooth as the cream cheese form but the citrus flavor was great. Throughout the meal water and bread were refilled, plates from completed courses removed and next delivered without being overly hovering. All in all a really great meal.

It works especially well for a mixed group since they have plenty of options including dishes without meat and everyone can find something. Even my picky niece and nephew were happy. My favorite entree is the Capellini Puttanesca, with capers, olives, basil, and anchovies. It's super tasty, satisfying, and the perfect portion. I also love that they offer wine by the glass and the service is consistently attentive. The waiters are always moving through the room, checking tables, refilling water, and making sure people have what they need. It's good, reliable, and near Broadway. NOTES/TIPS: **Reservations recommended via Google, Open Table; wheelchair accessible; clean bathrooms.
