Wooaah, woaaah! Joe’s Pizza is literally the best NYC pizza ever! Love the place and the flavor. If you come to NYC, you won’t regret coming here to eat!

Good quality takeaway pizzas. Good crust and more variety of toppings on offer. It's not the cheapest one, but it's definitely better than the cheaper outlets. I tried the spinach and it was delish. They have your usual condiments to add to your slice, like chilli flakes, garlic powder, grated parmesan and oregano. Washed it all down with a root beer.

Pizza by the slice or a whole pie. Was a very popular spot! This was our first stop once arriving on NY and we loved it!! Felt very New York and not touristy! I got a slice of pepperoni and my fiance got a slice of pepperoni and supreme!

Cool pizza shop. Great pizza. Relatively quick service for a place that's so crowded. Mega busy place. Hard to catch them in the off hours. Worth the wait. Best in the area hands down. Last time we ordered a pie and was delicious. I'll be back for sure. Very hard to get seating but they have tables outside. The atmosphere is very busy and noisy but fun. Don't plan to sit and read alone.

Despite visiting during lunch time, my order was ready in a few minutes. Honestly, it was the perfect pick-me-up after a morning of sightseeing in the cold and it hit the spot. It’s nothing particularly special per se but it was fresh and scorching. I got the ‘Supreme’ which I definitely enjoyed! Will definitely recommend!

Joe’s pizza is definitely worth the hype… Even though the place was super crowded, the service was surprisingly fast. I barely had to wait before getting my slice. The pizza itself was delicious, with a perfect balance of crispy crust, flavorful sauce, and gooey cheese. Simple, classic New York style done right. Great spot for a quick and satisfying bite in the city.

Great NY pizza place - somewhat iconic. I walked past it a dozen times and it was constantly packed with a line out the door with the exception of one time which was great so plan on waiting if you go. The pizza is very good, the staff is okay not particularly friendly, but it’s New York and it’s pizza slices. Just walk up and know what you want and order quickly. the at atmosphere is fun but crowded and not much seating so expect to take your pizza outside where the have a few standing tables.

Excellent experience. Not too busy when I got there, but was packed by the time I left at lunch. Pizza is iconic, and worth it. And a value in the city of costs.

Andy Watts

Really enjoyed my pizza here - it was very busy which suggests that a lot of people do. Was reasonably priced and the ingredients tasted fresh. Service was quick and they even played some great tunes to listen to whilst I ate.

If you’ve tried Joe’s, you’ve had classic NYC pizza. You can order whole pies or by-the-slice as the city intended. Consistency is key with Joe’s. No matter which location, on any given day, they are slinging thousands upon thousands of slices of quality pizza a day. The crust is crispy and the right amount of salt to balance with the sauce. It holds up to folding, eating and walking. It has a slightly sweet and well-seasoned sauce. There’s just enough cheese to get a great pull but not overwhelm the flavors or make a huge mess. I always opt for the pepperoni slice. They are thin and some of the edges crisp up in the oven. The first location opened in 1975 and has been a city staple since. The shops are always decorated with famous patrons and favorable review write-ups. Depending on the location, there will be a line but they will move you fast. In Fidi, any time an average human would want a slice, there will be a line. I’ve waited less than ten minutes when the line was out the door.

As a lifelong Spider-Man fan, Joe’s Pizza was high on my NYC food bucket list! Sadly, Peter wasn’t there when I visited, but the experience was still a total win lol I grabbed a classic slice of pepperoni, and it hit all the right notes. The crust was thin and perfectly crisp, with just enough chew to make every bite satisfying. The pepperoni was generously layered, curling up at the edges and releasing those little pools of savory goodness. What really stood out was how juicy and flavorful the pizza was—each bite was packed with cheesy, saucy delight, and just the right kick from the pepperoni. The slice held up well, not floppy or soggy, which is always a good sign for a New York slice. The shop itself has that classic, no-frills NYC pizza vibe—fast-moving, full of energy, and always busy with locals and tourists alike. Even without a superhero sighting, Joe’s Pizza lives up to the hype. If you’re in the area and craving a true New York slice, this spot is a must.

I needed a quick meal during my stay in FiDi and decided to swing by. A somewhat iconic spot, hence why it is so crowded. The guys behind the counter were very nice and worked hard to get orders out quick. It was good pizza, not the best I’ve had, but it hit the spot.

Pizza tasted good… $4.50 for a plain slice is guess ok lol, customer service could be a bit better but I get it you guys are busy. Would I come back here again? Maybe.

Pizza was good but it's too small and too busy. We didn't have to wait to long because someone left when we got there and we got a table. But I don't think I would wait if I had to. Pizza $5/slice. Pretty maddening for a tiny slice.

Good Pizza in a very small & busy Space. Is it the best Pizza we had in NY? No, but def a really good one. Go there for the „you saw us in Spider-Man“ Picture and you will be happy & not disappointed :)

I expected the pizza to be better. Joe’s pizza quality is better in Brooklyn and at the 42nd and broadway location. I expected the pizza quality to be better - the guy taking orders completely ignored me and tried to ask the people behind me what they wanted to order and they were just looking at me lol - my bf and dog were saving a table for me outside. I guess they are not used to people coming in alone and ordering ? LOL . Overall it was a good experience but again I expected the quality of the pizza to better since I already tried Joe’s Pizza on many other numerous occasions at various other locations! It’s usually always packed at a joes pizza , but you could get lucky and catch it open when you want to order pizza when it is not so busy. But I get it, the pizza is good and it is popular! Also they are literally open all night like how god damn convenient is that - especially for our night owls like myself.! Photos are captured and attached to share my experience with you from Joe’s Pizza on Fulton! Thank you for your service Joe’s Pizza!

It was really small place very tight in there. Only a couple of tables and wall chair on ine side and the line on the other and area To wait for your order. The pizza was good in general but we dont like thin pizza too much. But its good for quick bite.

Ok, the pizza tastes good, but it does not feel fresh. It tastes like reheated pizza, which is indeed th case. Of course, that is the business model all pizza-by-the-slice establishments run on, but if you are comparing on taste alone, there are better pies. I feel this place offers good value and a quick tasty options if you are in a hurry or not that hungry. If you are looking to have something in common with a lot of celebrities, apparently that is another item to take into account.

I had high expectations since this was suggested by many. It was alright for me. The crust was decent. I only liked the margherita slice. We asked for a veggie slice but they said they can only give a whole pizza and not by slice. I did not like the ricotta cheese slice. I expected more but it's decent and feel like I've had better ones

Nothing special. The pizza was kind of chewy and tough, with that texture you get when it’s been reheated. The pepperoni were oddly sweet 😬 I think it all comes down to the quality of the ingredients. I wouldn’t go back.

You don’t need a long review for what can be summed up in a couple sentences. It’s a good slice. Not a great slice. Is it worth the hype and long lines? NOO. But it gets the job done. You come here for reliable pizza, not “blow you away” pizza.

It was fine, but nothing extraordinary. Based on the TikToks and Reels on Instagram, you'd think New York pizzerias like Joe's and Little Italy and so on are God's gift to earth. But if you've ever ate a Pizza in Naples or in Rome you find out quick that these look good but don't taste at all like the ones in Italy. My problem isn't just that they don't taste like the ones in Italy, because I get it, it's something else. But they're just not that good. I find them rather bland. Texture and color is good but taste wise they could be much better for the price

I'm not sure what the hype is about this pizza... I've had way better pizza than this!! The satff are nice and the line moves relatively fast. But I don't think it's worth waiting in the line for more than 30-40 minutes. There are only a few spots to sit and enjoy your pizza inside the restaurant and there are a couple of tables outside.

Sorry to disappoint all the people who like to follow social media trends. Joe's Pizza is the most overhyped place of all time. I waited for 1 hour in the queue (because I gave into the hype), ordered a supreme pizza slice and it was a total time waste. I guess the image says it all. Might as well go to the dollar slice place 2 minutes away lol. I don't blame the people who work here, it's just a overhyped place that's it.
