One of my favorite pizza spots in NYC! The tie-dye pizza is a must. And nice that pasta can come in a shareable size. My favorite type of pizza - thin crust, perfect cheese and sauce ratio. Got the pesto pasta and I still think about them both often. Came with a large group of 6 and got a reservation on the day of. Highly recommend getting a reservation! Servers were super accommodating and friendly. read more

Pizza was amazing. With that said it was actually better when I brought it home and reheated it on a cast-iron because the crust wasn't as crispy as I like, but that might just be a preference. There was a bit of flop, but I had to get pick up because it's nuts trying to get a table. None of the sauce ingredients were definitely stand out not too much of a hassle for me to just give it a bit more of a crisp if it's been sitting waiting for me to pick it up for like five minutes I get it. It's not oven table. But overall one of the best pizzas I've had in a long time because it meets what I like in a pizza thin crust, baby. It's all about the thin crust for me and it's the power of the ingredients. I don't want more. I want better and this fit that bill. One little thing also and it's completely not a big deal cause I get it. It's a small place and it was crowded . I will say initially when I was asked to wait outside for my order. I was a little turned off. I don't know if it was the way that it was done or whatever but it's completely fine. It's a busy and packed place. I get it maybe just a better way of saying it or explanation for people who are going there for the first time. Place was packed so I get it but maybe something that could be tweaked to provide the best possible experience to go along with the good food. read more

Love this place. Usually come for pizza but opted for the ceasar salad and cavatelli this time. Both were great. We rolled in around 9 pm on a Saturday night with a party of 2 and were able to snag 2 bar seats immediately. read more

One of my favorite Italian places in NYC! They're known for their pizza, especially the Tie Dye pizza but previously I got the Rubirosa supreme. This time around, I got the Tie Dye, but next to it, I also had the chicken parm and I found that one to be really tasty as well! read more

We put our names in for a group of 4 around 7pm and were seated by 9pm (2 hour wait). There is more seating than we expected but only 1 restroom so a line forms. The food is delicious! We had a caesar, garlic knots and 3 pizzas (tie dye, rubirose supreme and honey pie). My favorite was the honey pie! If you show up at 9pm youre wait will be significantly shorter. read more

Came here for the first time, had to make reservations about a week out. Very good but not worth the hassle. This is the kind of place I would like to just show up when I'm in the mood, not plan way in advance. Atmosphere is nice and very lower Manhattan cool vibe. Ordered a nice bottle of wine, octopus app and the infamous Tie-dye pie. Both the app and pie were very good. The free bread and olive oil was tasty too. If I go back I would mix it up and get 2 small pizzas to try different flavors. The thin crust was pretty great, though I know some other pizza spots that also do almost as nice crispy thin crust. The dessert menu was basic so we passed. read more

The food here is phenomenal. The 5 stars is in relation to the food- nothing negative to say whatsoever. The pizza looked amazing too!! We ordered the Cacio e pepe and the mushroom cavatappi and split both and honestly kinda trying over who got the last bite LOL. The special appetizer of the jumbo shrimp stuffed with cheeese and artichoke was certainly jumbo and with great flavor. Make sure you ask for the table bread to dip in the sauce!!!! I tried a new beverage that was very tropical with a walnut bitters. It wasn't my favorite but it was prepared well and I was proud to try something new versus my safety order of something fruity with vodka. We were stuffed to order dessert but boy we are so glad to have gotten to eat here during our weekend in the city. The only negative is that this restaurant clearly prefers locals. Even though the website and yelp say walk-ins are welcome. The first time we walked in the wait was over an hour and we were just too hungry to wait. Did I mention the wait includes the bar seating? After returning to this place the next day and making sure to plan around The walking in and placing our name down on the reservation list once we were called in we were seated at the bar and even though we asked if there was anything else available, They said no. The front desk attendants are not very hospitable but ultimately our meal made up for it all. Another negative note for the single stall bathroom that was in disarray. Plenty of people waiting and in the middle of the restaurant to try relieve themselves without food getting cold. This restaurant absolutely deserves your patronage! read more

Phenomenal pizza sit down restaurant in West Village. I managed to snag a reservation for dinner and I can 100% say this was some of the best pizza I've had in a while. - Tie Dye Pizza: 100/10 (amazing! Love love loveeeee the thin and crispy crust and love the slightly tangy tomato sauce and pesto sauce on top. Next time I visit I'd be happy just getting a large size of this pizza.) - Bianca Pizza: 10/10 (fantastic dough texture and liked the creaminess of the pizza. I prefer tomato-based pizzas though so my favorite would still have to be the tie dye) - Meatballs: 6/10 (eh meatballs. Can pass on this.) Service was fast and ambiance was very old school cozy vibes. Will def be back for their pizzas!!! read more

Oh my gosh, where do I even begin?! We are obsessed with Rubirosa and loved it so much that we ended up eating here twice during our 4.5-day trip to NYC. As fans of Roman-style pizza (that ultra-thin, crispy, cracker-like crust), this place totally hit the mark and brought us right back to Rome! On our first visit, we ordered eggplant parmesan appetizer. We then ordered a 14-inch pizza, half Tie Dye and half Vodka Cheese. Both halves were fantastic, but the Tie Dye was an absolute standout. For our second visit, we couldn't resist coming back for more pizza! We went for an 18-inch pie this time--half Tie Dye, half Cheese--and it was just as incredible. Honestly, we could probably eat this pizza every day and never get tired of it. It's that good. And don't skip the RubiSlush! This Italian ice cocktail was perfect -refreshing but with a kick. Rubirosa is cozy and welcoming, with a warm, inviting atmosphere. The service was great--everyone we interacted with was super friendly and attentive, which always makes the meal feel even more special. We came for lunch both times and the vibe was relaxed, but still lively.. To sum it up: Rubirosa absolutely lives up to the hype, and if you're in NYC, make sure you get here at least once (or twice, if you're like us!). Between the pizza, the cocktails, and the friendly service, it's an experience you won't want to miss. read more

This small hidden spot had tons of positive reviews, so we had to check it out. We made our way straight to Little Italy and stepped into a small, crowded joint -- pizza was on just about every table. We went against the grain and ordered the cacio e pepe and a very generous portion of lasagna. Flavor-wise, I'd give the food a 3 out of 5 -- decent, but not amazing. That said, the staff and ambiance were absolutely wonderful, which really made the visit worth it! read more

Service was great, the pizza was amazing and everything came out pretty quickly. I think the ambiance could use a little bit work considering how uncomfortable the chairs were. Nonetheless, it does not take away from how delicious the food was. The tie dye pizza was super flavorful and so was the rubirosa supreme. I would return but next time I'd for sure make a reservation. The bar was not comfortable. read more

Service was really fast and they did a great job at crowd control given how popular this place is. The inside was also warm and cozy, it was giving your grandma's living room vibes in the best way. We ordered 1 large pizza, half was The tie-dye and the other Half was the arugula with added spiced honey. For someone as indecisive as me, it's really nice they allow you to customize the pizza with 2 different flavors. The Tie dye pizza was solid, crust was the right amount of crispy and not overdone. The amount of sauce wasn't overwhelming either. Did not really enjoy The Arugula, found it a tad bit overwhelming with just the amount of arugula that was placed. The spiced honey wasn't spicy at all, it was just sweet and almost overpowering the other flavors. The parmigiano was good quality though and paired well with its balsamic topping. Overall okay tasting pizza read more

In no way is this place overhyped. There's a reason why it's so hard to get into, and the reason is the Tie Dye pizza. Vodka sauce, marinara and pesto come together to blend perfectly with fresh mozzarella on the thinnest, crispiest crust you've ever put in your mouth. You're coming here for this. Do not leave without ordering it. Don't let the other items on the menu (that are also really good too) deter your from ordering this pizza. If I could eat only one pizza for the rest of my life, it would be the Tie Dye. Now that we got that out of the way, be aware that Rubirosa turns tables like no one's business. Reservations are always sold out, yet they're still trying to get walk-ins in the door when they can, so you're not here for a leisurely meal. The restaurant itself is cozy. But don't let that lull you in to getting cozy. I was somehow able to get a 4:30 pm reservation on a Friday, and walked in to a packed restaurant with a line out the door. I had the Olivia Martini, which was strong and refreshing. We ordered mozzarella sticks to start, which were hearty and well seasoned, perfectly crispy. We've already covered the pizza, which was lifechanging. We were out the door by 5:15. 10/10, would come here again and again and again. read more

Rubirosa was our savior from champagne problems lol and is located two blocks away so we walked there and left the car parked in front of champagne problems. This restaurant was packed and our waitress was bomb, she had informed us of which pizzas are the fan faves and didn't rush us at all and we ended up there an hour before closing. It looks small from the outside but there is plenty of room to move around. It has an old school Italian vibe and is great for dates and groups. We had the Bianca slice I give it a 6 and the vodka slice I give it a strong 8 both were good vodka was better. I enjoyed my Shirley temple and the star of my meal chicken Milanese was fire I give it a 9. The zeppoles were good even after being warmed up the next day so I give them a 10. This place was definitely worth my time and money. read more

This is a solid sit-down pizza spot if you enjoy a classic thin crust pizza. My partner and I walked in around 3pm and waited around 25 minutes to be seated. We were seated at a really cramped bar area even though there were several empty tables because we were dining during an off peak hour. We got an appetizer and split a 14" pizza - half tie dye, half Rubirosa supreme. We both agreed that the texture on the tie dye slices were amazing because the crust was super crispy and chewy. But the tie dye tasted slightly bland in comparison to the Rubirosa supreme, which was just so much more flavorful and tastier. Service was subpar, and we had to ask multiple times for a plate. read more

I've been dying to try this place for so long and I finally got to eat here. The ambience was nice and cozy. We ordered vodka pasta and tie dye pizza. The pasta was good, the sauce was flavorful but nothing to write home about. Now the pizza- the sauce and everything on it was really good. The pesto on top was the best part but the dough.... The dough was horrible. It was like I was eating crackers. This would've been the best pizza if they changed the extremely thin crust into a normal one. read more

Rubirosa is still my favorite pizza place in nyc. Whenever I have friends visiting from out of town, this is definitely the spot I take them. I had some first time visitors so I made reservations for a late lunch at 3pm. The place was packed even at 3pm. We got the large rubirosa supreme, the family rubirosa ragu and the lasagna for 2. Everything was delicious! The ragu was so good and the lasagna was definitely more than enough for 2. The rubirosa supreme is my favorite pizza of all time. The perfectly thin crust, roni cups and Italian sausage. Yum! Chefs kiss. read more

SERVICE - located in NoLiTa near spring street - indoor seating only - expect a 20-30 minute wait even during seemingly off hours - interior is intimately lit with tables for all sizes of groups - only one restroom which usually has a line - servers move quickly to take your order and bring out your food - ambiance good for nicer meal MENU - classic Italian selection of appetizers, pasta, and pizza - vegan and gluten free options available for an up charge - average price ($20 per person) FOOD - small arugula pizza with vegan cheese (10/10): thin crust topped with housemade marinara sauce, vegan cheese, fresh arugula, onion, tomato, and a balsamic drizzle. Although the description says small, this pizza easily feeds 2 people. I really liked the balance of flavors between the fresh and peppery arugula and the sweet balsamic. The tomato sauce was easily one of the best ones that I have had. The vegan cheese was not gummy like a lot of vegan cheeses are which made it enjoyable to eat. WOULD I GO BACK? Yes! One of the better vegan friendly Italian places that I have tried read more

A delightfully light, flavorful NY pizza that is worth the weekend wait! We knew we wouldn't make it for a walk in at lunch on a Sunday, so we got on the wait list around 3:30pm. The wait was still about 45 min, but that's easy to manage in such a busy shopping area. This restaurant is narrow and packed with tables, so capacity is limited but the pizza is worth the wait! We opted for an 18" tie dye pizza for our table of 5, plus garlic knots and a Caesar to share. The Caesar was a great standard, and our self-proclaimed garlic knot connoisseur said the knots were some of the best they'd had. The server was kind enough to also add a fifth knot to the order so we'd all get one. They paired well with their very flavorful marinara- no lack of taste here! The pizza really was the star of the show here. The crust is so thin we were left marveling at how it remained crispy despite the sauce on top- truly cracker-thin. Both the marinara and vodka sauces were amazing, but we had a preference for the lightly creamy vodka. A bit of cheese on each slice, but you really didn't want for more given the great flavors. The pesto swirl is added tableside as a fun service touch, but we felt it didn't add much. If they did patches of pesto next to the other sauces, I'd be in favor. 5/5 pizza. We all could have gone in on another pie just for the sheer joy in the taste, but left feeling satisfied but still light. Loved it read more

There's so much hype around Rubirosa, and while it's really good, I don't think it was anything too special. The service was excellent and although I highly recommend making a reservation, it was still pretty empty at 11:30AM, so if you want to walk in anytime before noon (or even better, at opening), you should be able to get in without one especially if you have a smaller party. Ambiance-wise, Rubirosa has the feel of a family restaurant. The interior is deceptively small, but they have a seating area upstairs, as well as covered outdoor seating. Bathrooms are fairly clean, though small. The pastas were just average, but the pizza was tasty. You can order half-half combinations, and I'd recommend the honey pie and the tie-dye. The crust is the best part, as it's NY-style thin crust, and crunchy. I wouldn't say their portions are filling or anything though. Prices aren't exorbitant but also not exactly cheap either. They do have a gluten menu if you have any allergies. Overall, I'd come back, but I don't think Rubirosa's was worth the hype. read more

Rubirosa - Small Tie-Dye Pizza & Cheese Pizza - Italian Near Me - New York, New York

My party and I tried a variety of dishes at Rubirosa, and everything was impressively tasty! To share, we ordered a large pizza -- half Honey (sweet and savory) and half Tie Dye (a cheese pizza with a pesto drizzle). It came out fresh, hot, and steaming. We were all obsessed with the Tie Dye side, though only a few of us were fans of the Honey. Personally, I thought both were surprisingly good -- thin, crispy, and packed with flavor. If you're coming here for pizza, I highly recommend trying those two flavors. They're a fun twist on the classic cheese or pepperoni and definitely worth a shot. As for our main dishes, I got the lumache alla vodka- and WOW. After trying a bit of everyone else's pasta selections, mine was hands-down the best. The sauce was creamy with a light tangy tomato flavor, and the noodles (shaped kind of like shells) were cooked perfectly -- they held the sauce so well that each bite was a gush of hot flavor . The other pastas at our table were decent (carbonara noodles were a bit mushy/overcooked, though the flavor/sauce was super yummy), but nothing stood out like mine did -- if every dish had been on that level, I'd easily have given five stars. I'd absolutely come back -- if it wasn't so packed on a Monday night! Service was solid, and the overall vibe was fun and lively. read more

shoutout to my friend who was able to secure a weekday lunch reservation at rubirosa! I was there early so I ordered for the table - we had the rubirosa salad which was so fresh and tasty (love the tomato and mozz balls in there) and paired excellently with the balsamic. We went for the half tie dye and half rubirosa supreme and both were excellent. The vodka sauce is definitely what they were known for, I haven't had a more flavorful slice in a hot minute. The slice was INCREDIBLY thin and in truly don't know how they manage to make it that thin. Great pizza spot! I would come back day in and day out for the excellent service, and the delicious pie. read more

Our favorite pizza in the city. After sleuthing the internet for the best vodka slice in NYC, I found Rubirosa. We arrived around 3pm and had a 1 hour wait, which was no issue given the multitude of things to do in SOHO. We enjoyed sitting at the bar and got the tie-dye pizza with pepperoni added. I'm still thinking about this pizza. The vodka, tomato, and pesto sauces combined were so insanely good. Adding the pepperoni was key - great, small, chewy pepperonis. The pizza was cooked to perfection. And as for the restaurant itself, you can't beat it. Cute, cozy, and bustling at the same time. We will be returning here on every NYC trip. read more
