I have loved Romeo's for years! Whenever I come to visit family, I stop by for a slice. It never disappoints. The crust is the perfect amount of crunch. The pizza has the perfect amount of cheese. I like to eat it immediately! So good. They have so many varieties of pizza but I love a simple cheese slice. read more

Nice guy behind the counter and the slice was delicious but $4:50 for the thinnest grandma slice I've ever seen is just a little ridiculous. It's just way too much for the product you're getting - finished it in under one minute. Rosa's pizza in Maspeth still takes the top spot for taste: value ratio IMO ! read more

I drove to Queens for a Friendsgiving last night and picked up 4 large pies from Romeo's. I called the order in 20 minutes before arriving and they were ready when I arrived.. how neat is that!? I got two regular cheese pies, a sicilian and a spinach. They were all delicious but my favorite was the spinach... each slice was perfectly covered from head to toe in an ample amount of spinach, making for the perfect bite each time. Thanks Romeo's for coming in clutch as I had no idea what I was going to bring to this Friendsgiving! read more

Came here super excited because I pass by here almost every day and smelt such a great scent of pizza here. There is no parking lot but there is parking on the street. They indeed do deliver. There is a little bit of seating but nothing crazy here. They have limited amount of slices and drinks. Nothing too intense. But great place to stop and grab a slice! I had a penne slice and a buffalo chicken slice. They were okay but not crazy amazing. Everything looked fresh and the place was very clean. Will totally be going back for some other slices!

It's a local neighborhood pizza shop, family owned and operated. There's nothing about their setup and decor that sets them apart from other pizzerias until you taste the love coming out of their oven. Their pizzas are delicious and the grandma pizza is by far my favorite. You can call ahead to place an order for pickup but delivery service is pending the hiring a driver. I think their prices are high on the scale but life is short and who has time for so-so pizza. It's pricey but these days, so is everything else. I wish they accepted alternatives to cash payment and offered paper plates when pies are ordered but those minor inconveniences won't deter me from ordering every couple of weeks. I recommend checking this place out and judging for yourself. read more

Romeo's always been a short walk away. They used to have one of the best chicken tomato and chicken Caesar salad pizza salad. The flavor is still great, but the pizza has gotten very thin and the prices has gone up. Last time i was there i gotta a 1/2 chicken and broccoli pizza and 1/2 chicken tomato pizza and a order of garlic knots and chicken wings. The wings were fried well but i think i paid well over 40 dollars. I still enjoy the flavor but wished the pizza held-up a little better. read more

My report is limited, and based on a really basic take-out order of two plain slices, which is what I order the first time I visit a new pizzeria. They were pretty fresh from the oven and I could find no fault with them. I was really thrilled with them, actually! For me, this is what a New York pizza is supposed to be. Great flavor, the right balance of dough, sauce and cheese, cooked exactly the right amount of time, and ideal for folding and eating with one hand while neither flopping down nor being hard like a board. I believe it was the owner with whom I interacted when I made my order and he seemed almost indignant when I queried him as to whether the pizza was made recently - well it was, so why would I have any reason to think they're selling warmed-over pizza, right? They have every reason to be proud of their goods at Romeo's. I can't wait to go back and try a couple of slices with some toppings and maybe a baked ziti or something! I visited back in January so this review is a little overdue. I wanted to be able to easily reference the location to make it easier to find when returning to NY and having a review on my Yelp will accomplish that. Go to Romeo's and enjoy yourself. New York the way it used to be (and in some places at least, still is!). read more

This store wasn't as good as Brother's pizza by Horace Harding. It's more expensive and for some reason pizza bread wasn't as soft as theirs. We ordered a sausage and pepperoni with extra sauce on a pie, but apparently there wasn't enough sauce that made this pizza so dry and I have to finish a bottle of water with it. Not really the best to go place, but if you are starving, then no doubt just go for it. read more

Stopped for a quick lunch with the boo and we ordered chicken caesar slice, pepperoni slice and a fresh chicken roll. The decor in here is a cross between Roman-esque ceilings and wallpaper with classic NYC style pizza tables. Everything was fresh, delicious and hot. The slices had a great thin crust that was crispy but slightly chewy in the center. All in all, each selection had a great balance of flavors.

Who would have thought Chicken Caesar Salad Pizza would be so good. It was there and I just said I have to try that tonight. They warmed it up a bit and what a great change from the standby pepperoni pizza. G had the white pizza and I did taste it and it was good also. The crust is thin on both of these pizzas and not burnt but yet still crispy. G also ordered this sausage and peppers thing in garlic wrapped dough. I did not try that but it looked very good and he said it was good. I trust his word. Now we regularly order from another Pizza place not too far away, but amazingly Romeo's also delivers to our home area, so this might be another order from place. The garlic knots in the display area looked really tasty, but I was a bit tired after working all day and the Chicken Caesar Salad Pizza slice was just enough. There is seating in the back on of the store or you can just get your slice to go. The guys behind the counter are very personable. I would definitely stop here again for a slice or a pie for a party. The only down side is the horrific parking situation on this street. No off street parking and a few spots down the neighborhood block. Parking during the day is feed the meter. read more

Another quality pizzeria in the area. Located on the always busy Union Tpk and just off of 188th St, this pizzeria has a clean, modern interior. While it's not large inside there is enough seating for I'd estimate around 20-25 people. I ordered 2 plain slices, and while they weren't huge, they were tasty. The crusty was thin without being flimsy and was perfectly crispy. The cheese slightly dominated the sauce but the flavor was still on point. Two slices and fountain soda set me back just $7.00. Not exactly cheap - especially given the size of the slices - but I didn't mind because I enjoyed the food and liked the environment. It doesn't have the "charm" of an on older, throwback Italian pizzeria but the product was good and that's what mattered most to me. read more

There was plenty of cheese, and it had a good pull, even if it looked a bit overcooked on top. I'm presuming the average ratings here and on other sites are because of their location and the fact that a lot of tourists who go here can't tell the difference between Joe's and a dollar slice. Perfectly decent slice on the level, if not worse than many slices in the city, as I disliked the sauce, while the rest was fine.

The names of the pies are funny, and the staff is friendly, but besides that, the quality of the food for lack of a better word, dare I say it, sucks. Hoping to salvage the meal, I ordered their Chicken Parmesan. It was the Hail Mary pass that unfortunately did not connect. The cutlets are overcooked and dry, and the red sauce cooked with it has minimal tomato flavor. At least the spaghetti is cooked to a nice al dente and mellow garlic butter flavor, but like the sauce cooked in, it is also minimal. Part of the problem I feel is they are trying to go for a vibe that has a New York and modern feel. It does not work. Stay true to one or the other. Or at least look at other business models. I will use another pizzeria in Bushwick that exemplifies it perfectly. It is a hipster pizzeria in a hipster neighborhood. Through balance, it creates an ambiance both welcoming and warm without losing any of its Bushwick character. It does this by not beating you over the head with hipster vibes, just enough to let you know that you are in Bushwick. The band Franz Ferdinand was playing as I was wrapping up. Rather than take the pizza out, I suggest you throw it out. Overall pizza rating: 1.7/5

Carbonara pizza! Be sure to break the egg yolk in the center for some crust dipping goodness.

The bar is a great bonus--well-stocked and a great place to hang while you wait for a table. The staff really stood out to me--super friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. And the pizza? Absolutely amazing. Fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. If you're looking for a go-to pizzeria with great vibes and even better food, I highly recommend Bardough NYC!

The first thing you notice is the main bar wall, with its exposed centuries-old brick that has survived every bit of chaos this city could throw at it. It's subtly backlit from with a warm, amber glow that highlights every single historic groove and imperfection, making the whole room look like it's breathing. I have to say the centerpiece of the entire narrow room is the bar itself, and let me tell you, it is an absolute stunner of a contrast. Instead of the usual dark, sticky tavern wood, they've dropped in a long, continuous slab of pristine, elegantly smooth white stone. It glows under the soft lighting like a block of polished marble. There are no strobe lights and no obnoxious, skull-rattling bass in this joint. Instead, the room is wrapped in a blanket of incredibly chill music that matches the pulse of the room perfectly. It's just loud enough to drown out the noise in your own head, but quiet enough that you don't have to scream over the smooth white counter to be heard. People aren't here to be seen on TikTok; they're here to disappear for an hour or three. You slide into a chair, order a proper Old Fashioned from a bartender who doesn't rush the pour, and watch the ice melt against the amber-lit brick. It's the ultimate underground exhale--a perfect, narrow slice of peace in a city that never shuts up. Cheers!

We came here with reservations right after watching &Juliet across the street and the only problem was that I the dishes were so big that I couldn't order more. My wife and I enjoy a good meal but didn't research the size of the portions well. Thankfully our waiter guided us appropriately. We ended up skipping the appetizers and getting a chicken parmigiana and a half order of the rigatoni vodka! It was just enough for us. The chicken parmigiana was just right. It's their star and we can see why. The chicken was breaded well and dressed in the rich sauce and cheese. The breading was not overdone and the chicken was moist and tasty. The complimentary bread was helpful in mopping up the sauce. It was my wife's favorite for the night The rigatoni was my favorite and I regretted only getting the half order. I could have had another portion or two. It was the right mixture of flavor and texture. Next time, I'm taking a group of friends here so we can enjoy more of the dishes together. 10 out of 10 would come here again

Both dishes were cooked to perfection with the Alfredo being creamy but not overly buttery! The chicken parmigiana was 2-3 lightly breaded masses of chicken covered with a delicious red sauce and mozzarella. It was only two of us and we took home half of the chicken parmigiana. Ambiance is a family style restaurant where you are close to other tables but the experience was amazing! Would return!
