Review Lazzara's Pizza Cafe - New York City

Diana Eide
Oh my gosh - pizza here is really special and the space is everything you could image. We had a 1/2 pepperoni pizza and garlic knots with drinks. Prices were reasonable and I will definitely go back for the pizza.

What a gem this place is! We came across it accidently and remembered seeing a review on it, so we went up....and we're kit disappointed. Definitely artisan, and definitely fantastic! Rich and smooth sauce you could taste the freshness of on a super light and crispy crust with perfect sauce to cheese to crust ratio. Will come back again!

It's an absolute must if you love pizza. We tried 3 different pizzas and they were all amazing. Thin crust, fresh sauce, tasty toppings. Great service.

We came here based on Bar Stool (Dave’s) pizza review. It was great, but not as amazing as I thought based on the rating. I fully respect Daves's reviews as I'm from New Haceb CT and agree with his ratings there. I think he was a bit overhyped based on the cool atmosphere. That said food and location were great!

This is a different spin on pizza for my liking. The sauce is a little sweet, but that would be the only thing I could say that wasn't my favorite. it's definitely a must-try the staff is also very friendly and on top of what they do

First time I came to this great place, food was really good, I got penne pesto pasta, n cheese pie, if I can give more stars to service I could give, Natalie (server) was fast, kind, friendly all the time. I totally recommend this place! 4 stars to atmosphere bc is kinda hot inside!

Top quality pizza here, very old school place.. Building looks 100 years old inside and hasn't changed, which I think is great. We dined in, Pizza comes on a tray and is rectangular shape, $19 for the cheese pizza. It was paper thin, with great crisp. Sauce is definitely on the sweeter side, but it's something a little different. Even though it's the middle of Manhattan I feel like it's still a hidden gem. One of the best pies in New York. Staff were very friendly and quick. Highly recommend.

Came recommended in a pizza group that I'm in. I'm not a thin crust guy, but this was excellent. We got mozzarella sticks, garlic crisps, and the regular plain pie. Everything was great, obviously fresh and handmade.

I have over 130 pizza reviews in the last 3 years, and this was the best thing I've ever eaten. Crisp crust, unbelievable sauce, and a high quality mozza and pepperoni.

The service & food here are outstanding. Not only did the host go above and beyond with the entire process, even though we unknowingly walked in right before closing, but the food here is unbelievable and a must try if you’re in Manhattan. Pizza is an untraditional square slice, and it might seem a little expensive for the quantity of the slices, but WOW is it good!! Penne vodka was out of this world as well. We ended up taking it to go since they were closing, even though the host insisted it was fine to stay, but if they were still open I would be walking back to get some more. A++ restaurant and would definitely be back, only recommendation is eat the pizza right away or at the restaurant.

This place had a great vibe to it. From the tin ceiling, to the narrow hallways. I really wish that I would have tried some other dishes other than half of a pizza. It seemed very cool. Again, just the vibe of this place was, I guess you could say old school? It had a very regal feel to it as you're walking up the stairs and then you go down this tiny little hallway just to be greeted by only a few tables. The pizza had a very interesting flavor to it. The dough was very, very thin, almost like a cracker. The sauce was incredible, And they definitely put their own spin on the pepperoni as they Julienne the pepperoni. That was quite unique. I would love to come back to this restaurant and try some other other dishes that they have there as the other patrons seemed to love what they were eating. The staff here was incredible and very friendly. If you're ever in the area or even in the neighborhood, this is a definite place to check out.

This place is highly rated for their pizza and it deserves that rating. Best sit-down slice I've had in NYC. This would not be my usual type of pizza offhand, but turns out my usual must be wrong. Great flavor, nice crispy crunch; it was so good we ordered a second pizza. The staff was friendly and the restaurant had a good atmosphere.

Probably the best pizza crust I have ever had… it had the perfect amount of crunch. A little more than I am used to paying for pizza but it is NYC! Definitely worth it. I highly recommend the margarita pizza. I also had a side salad and rice ball, the salad dressing was phenomenal, perfect amount of herbs and spices. The rice ball had great flavor but there was not enough meat, cheese etc. .it was mostly just rice. It was also a bit over cooked. I would give it another try next time I am in the city.

Good stop for a rainy day! Got the vodka pizza with chicken. Very well made.
sophie rubino
The margarita looks absolutely crazy. I was very hesitant when I saw it, and really wasn't expecting much. The pizza was tasty though!!!! The cheese was good and the sauce was acidic and salty - in a good way. With that being said the true shining star of Lazzara's Pizza Cafe was the arancini. By far one of the tastiest things I've ever eaten. I honestly can't believe how good it was. It came sitting in tomato sauce but was still nice and crispy on the outside. Come to Lazzara's for the pizza, but get the arancini for sure.

I absolutely loved this spot! Definitely a hidden gem that is well worth trying if you’re in the area. I couldn’t recommend the pizza more especially as a native New Yorker.
Debbie Zimmermann Czerniak
Service was mediocre, food was not over the top. Waiter brought us the wrong pizza as well. Had to wait an additional 10+ minutes for the one we ordered. Not the typical Italian I was expecting. On a good note, the waiter never charged us for our glasses of wine...so..we made sure we left a hefty tip so it would cover the wine if he caught his mistake.
Vinnie Galletto
Way more than just a pizza restaurant. Great authentic Italian dishes in a quaint, casual atmosphere with the friendliest wait staff some who have been there for over 10-yrs. Check it out!
Helen M Jones
An amazing little place. The pizza was awesome and the staff were lovely. I would highly recommend and will be going back again before I leave the city xxx
Jim Michalak
Very slow service. Waited an hour for a half chicken. Got back to my office and the chicken on top looks like they threw it on top and it was cold which the rest of the pizza was burnt. Stay away!
Gregory Tammany
This is by far the best pizza on the planet �!!! If you like garlic and pepperoni I challenge you to try theirs and find one better. I drool just thinking about it. I’ll see you soon Tony. ���

This is a must stop place to eat probably the best pizza that I have ever had when you visit NYC.
Craig Vescelus
A wonderful restaurant to grab an excellent pizza out of the hustle of the streets. Tucked away dining in a small, but eclectic old space. We dined here twice in 3 days and excellent food and service both times. Can wait to enjoy my leftover pizza in the morning. Desserts are excellent as well. Cheesecake is exceptional as is the cherry pie!
