la cittá New York Reviews
Got a couple slices with my friends for a late night dinner and had a nice quiet time dining in. The pizza was great and so were the mozzarella sticks. Service was fast and the men working were very nice and polite :)
They got the best pizza in town ever in here I really love the pizza and their pasta, big selection of many different things 🍕😋
This place is amazing. The staff is incredible – it's been the same team since they opened, which makes it feel like you’re visiting friends or neighbors every time. They keep the place immaculate; the tables, bathrooms, and counters always look brand new. Their baked pasta with meatballs is TO DIE FOR. Plus, the kitchen and full menu are available until 2am, which is perfect for late-night cravings. This is exactly the kind of place New York deserves: customer-oriented, clean, delicious, and affordable for such high-quality Italian cuisine. I love coming here with friends or my partner, I also like ordering before I leave home so my order is ready when i arrive. So glad to have them in this neighborhood
Amazing pizza! Fresh salad! Authentic experience. The staff were very good — seemed to be family run. Prices reasonable. Try chicken Marsala pizza — unique and probably my favorite slice ever. Only wish they had free tap water available.
This place was such an excellent find to stumble upon! We definitely didn’t expect it would be as good as it was given we were just looking to catch a quick bite late at night. The rainbow slice was full of so many flavors and I loved it! The staff were really friendly too.
Such a great experience, fresh and tasty ingredients, highly recommended place.
This pizza was so good. OMG definitely the I’ve had while visiting the Big Apple. Hazem was super friendly. The tables were clean. The bathroom was clean. It was cool to watch the pizza being made. And straight from the oven to my taste buds. I will be back next time I’m in this area. The crust was amazing YALL.
Great tasting slices. I enjoyed a chicken slice and a sausage slice. Not crowded before lunch today. I'm definitely coming back again.🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕
This place is spacious, extremely clean and has a wide variety of options - including pizzas of various sizes, salads, heros, and dessert. Staff is friendly. Prices are lower than other pizzerias nearby. I definitely recommend!
My daughter really love your pizza
Very large selection of Pizza slices that taste great and at a good price

Spacious pizza joint with pretty good pizza. There’s definitely better pizza nearby, but the prices are reasonable and there are lots of topping to choose from here. This is more of a traditional NYC spot in my opinion.
Doughy dough. A perfect late night post going out quality New York slice.
Staff is nice. Pizza 🍕 is a bit dry but delicious. Nice tiramisu, not too sweet

Very basic pizza. Dough needs more proofing. Flavor is very underdeveloped. Needs more salt. Flat pepperoni, not the fantastic cup and char. Sauce is fine. Cheese was a little greasy without a ton of flavor. Clean and bright inside.
In a city full of pizza options, the slices here were fine but forgettable. The dough and sauce were both under-seasoned, which might work for some of the more complex/creative toppings but made for an unremarkable cheese pizza in both formats (NY and Sicilian styles). Service and ambiance were very nice (esp. for a slice shop), but for me the slice itself always matters most - and in a blind taste test these slices are just ok.

Tried for the first time but never again. I went here because of the high rating and low price of slices. I had a cheese and a mushroom slice. Neither were good and barely passable. Cheese, sauce, and crust all vapid. Nothing special not at all memorable. I’ve had better slices at the 99 cent joints. High rating is illusory!

As others have stated - I don’t think many of these reviews are real. This was probably the worst pizza I’ve had in New York, and a 99 cent place would have better pizza (undercooked). The sandwiches are laughably bad….hardly any chicken and dry as a bone. I genuinely want my money back

Truly cannot believe these reviews, I had a pizza from this location and the crust was so hard I could barely bite through it. Served me stale pizza, in a city with great local pizza everywhere, this place is embarrassing. I’m rooting for them to get it together but for now 1 star
Basic pizza, over priced, took forever in the weirdest way, owner i suppose since he was the only caucasian dude around wasn't sending orders to the kitchen or checking up on them and was fixing a light or something over the cooking area (gross, call Jon Taffer), awkward customer service like wanting a dive bar vibe but with stiff moody staff and a dullard lazy or just bored owner so it seemed. One of them actually profiled a customer as a drinker just because she's got colorful hair and artsy expressive clothes and offered/(awkwardly attempted to upsell) her alcohol... in the middle of the day... he didnt offer me alcohol though because I don't present myself in the same way in business casual with my natural hair color yet ironically she turns down the alcohol and he missed an opportunity with me by not asking who didn't know they had alcohol because it's my first time visiting but I wouldve actually liked some...! 🤦♀️🤷so they didn't get to sell drinks TWICE while the owner stands around like durr 🤪🥴. Will not go back again for annoying staff and subpar food and delirious prices! 👎
