Pizza is so good, Service is even better! Conveniently across from Crouse Hospital

Being here was like being transported in time. The decor is so vintage and cool, and the pizza (buffalo chicken, & bacon ranch) was fantastic. Prices are decent as well.

Still great after all these years. Their pizza has the best toppings and crust in town. Try the "Varsity" pizza which has red sauce and mozzarella with a delicious combination of 2 meat (pepperoni & sausage) and 3 vegetable (onion, bell pepper, & mushroom) toppings. Also, while you're waiting for Elli to cook your pizza, place an order for 5 or 10 wings with Gus and he'll call out your name when they're ready to pick up. There are many additional comfort foods on the menu, and all of the ones I've tried are good. While you're eating, check out the college flags hung on the walls. Depending on the time of the year, if a flag is upside down it means that the Syracuse basketball or football team beat that school during the current season. Sadly, if the flag is upright it means we lost. POST- PANDEMIC UPDATE-1: Elli is still making the best pizza in town. I know it's a selfish thought, but I hope she never retires. UPDATE-2: During a lunch at the Varsity with friends, I learned that Syracuse University has purchased the restaurant and may tear it down in the next 2 years. If this is true, it reflects very badly on President Syverud of Syracuse University. Hopefully, alumni will unite in opposition. UPDATE-3: Still making the best pizza in town.

The service was quick. The staff were friendly. We came in before the crowd and got our food quick. We found a table quick. The place is clean, the atmosphere is awesome. I got a bacon burger with fries and a drink. I ate it so fast I didn’t get a pic. You cant beat the price! I definitely will come back!

Varsity, at the corner of Crouse and Marshall in Syracuse has been around seemingly forever. It’s pretty much a way of life at Syracuse University. ‘Meet me at Varsity’ was a thing back when I was a student there, and it still is today as the next generations of students makes it their own. Yeah, Varsity is definitely a tradition at the CUSE. Their menu is pretty expansive and hasn’t change much in the last decade or so. They have a lot of sandwich and sub options, as well as some wraps. A fan favorite has always been their wings and pizza. Those two staples alone kind of put Varsity on the map, and that’s what I ordered. The chicken wings were as good as ever. Nice and crispy on the outside and juicy inside. The BBQ sauce was just perfect. The pepperoni slice that I got to accompany the wings was also good. The crust was particularly outstanding. Loved it! A lot has changed on Marshall St. over the last decade or so. A few beloved shops are gone replaced by the flavor of the day. Some old-time places have thankfully remained, with Varsity being one of them. Whenever I make the drive up from the City for a football or basketball game, I try and stop in for a quick bite. This is a place worth going to when you’re in the area. The food is great and the people are friendly. Couldn’t recommend it enough.

THIS is your quintessential college-town "place" to grab some grub. Pizza (sausage and pepperoni) was phenomenal, but so were the wings and so were the folks taking orders and making food. We were here for a College visit, this made US want to quit our jobs and enroll at Syracuse!

Never a bad experience here. Actually it's always been a fun experience. Everytime we are around the area we stop it. Loved the last time after SU won, the band came and played on top of the tables. Being/Visiting here makes me feel young again!!

5 stars because all I had was the pizza, which was fresh and delicious! I look forward to going back to try other menu items! I expect it will maintain the 5 star rating! The atmosphere is casual and it makes you want to go to an SU game immediately!
