Ended up in the Polish neighbourhood during our trip to NYC and tried having some authentic Polish food. Pyza didn't disappoint. Not recall clearly what we ordered but it was tasty. Will recommend to friends visiting NYC.

Outstanding traditional old school homemade Polish food. Everything is delicious and extremely fresh and well prepared. Probably the best Polish restaurant in NY, even better than Pierozek and Karczma, and the portions are huge and prices unbeatable. I only paid $20 to get an order of Ukranian red Borscht and 2 stuffed cabbages with meat with the side of mashed potatoes and sauerkraut and beet salad already included in the order. That's almost an unthinkable price for NY. The only downside is they are a cash only restaurant so make sure to bring cash before ordering, but the food and service is outstanding.

Delicious food that really hits the spot. Had the "Polish Plate" but definitely needed the doggy bag, very generous portions. The borscht was packed with flavor and was the perfect accompaniment to the plate.

Real Polish home cuisine. Delicious meals freshly made. It's Deffinatly worth visiting if you are a fancy Polish Dinner. It has a very old interior design, but the food quality and portion are just perfect!

Came here for a traditional Polish lunch, and left so, so satisfied. My fav were the Zéberka (Spare ribs) -- they were cooked perfectly. I also loved the potato pancakes with the goulash (Placek Po Węgiersku?). ALSO: try the seasonal beet soup. It's served cold, and was so refreshing on the hot day. I'll be back, many, many times!

Quiet, unassuming, bare bones, family run Polish food for hungry people of all backgrounds. We've been here several times, but not since before covid. I'm happy to report that the place hasn't changed a bit! There's no table service. Place your order and have a seat! Don't forget to clean up after yourself. This no doubt helps keep prices modest. I haven't sampled many different things here. I stick with veal cutlet with very basic-but-satisfying mashed garnished with a little sauteed onion, and two sides, today I had plain red cabbage and a delicate cucumber salad. Great on a hot day! The fried fish is also very good, also served with mashed and two sides. I HIGHLY recommend Pyza. (Keep in mind, this place is as quiet as a library used to be in the 1960s! Even with every table occupied, no one speaks above a whisper, perhaps so the locals can hear the Polish tv playing in the background)

The service was great. As soon as I walked in I was greeted. You have to order at the register and pick up your food there, when it's ready. Then sit down at one of the many tables to eat. I also went to the rest room and it was clean. I was the only black person, but treated the same as anyone else. I ordered the polish platter (mashed potatoes, sausage, 4 chicken stuffed dumplings, stuffed cabbage with rice and ground meat with sauce on top, 2 potato latkes and the cabbage with meat). I had to ask for the sour cream for the latkes. The food was good, but I've had better. The stuffed cabbage wasn't nearly as good as the one that I purchased at a Polish restaurant in Manhattan. I ordered the blintzes. I ordered strawberry on the cashiers recommendation and I also ordered the cheese one. They come with apple sauce and sour cream. I meant to take a picture but forgot. The cheese flavor was good the strawberry one is really good. The price is decent at $24 for the platter (at the time of writing this). The blintzes is $12. You get to pick 2 out of 3 flavors (strawberry, blueberry or cheese). They do not mix the flavors together in one blintz. I also like the way they wrap it. They enclosed the crepe among itself on all sides (hiding the filling), unlike most places which leave the crepe open.

Truly Polish dining experience in New York. The portions are massive, and the food is really good. The pierogi aren’t the best, but everything else makes up for it. I regularly visit this place whenever I’m in NYC. Edit: What truly shocked me, though, was the behavior of the owner/manager (or whoever was in charge). This didn’t happen on my first visit, but on a later one. The lovely woman at the till briefly left her station to help open the door for a family with a stroller — a noble and kind gesture. Instead of appreciating it, he started shouting and swearing at her in front of everyone, yelling “it’s not your responsibility.” His behavior was disgraceful. He came across as an uncivilized, vulgar bully with zero manners, shouting at someone far more noble and professional than he could ever be. She showed class, warmth, and dedication, while he exposed himself as a crude, arrogant man who doesn’t deserve to represent a place with such good food.

It's a good place for Polish comfort food. Every time I've eaten here the food is so satisfying. Hunter stew, tripe soup, and stuffed cabbage with are my favorites.

If you are looking for rustic Polish food in an authentically Polish environment surrounded by Polish people, the Polish language , and Polish TV then this is it. It’s sincere , authentic , and hardy with great portions. I ordered the “Polish Platter.”

Authentic polish home cooked food. This is a self service restaurant, you order with the friendly guy at the counter, and you pickup your tray of food. The portions are huge, but the food is a bit on the greasy side. Highly recommend their Kielbasa, which you can order as a side (not on the menu). We ordered the polish plate and chicken cutlet and a side of Kielbasa. The polish plate at $14 comes with salad, pickles, kielbasa, pierogi, potato pancakes, stuffed cabbage and mashed potatoes. The cutlet/entrees come with 2 sides each.
