Troy WoodsonMay 26, 2013Great Pizza!! Grandma Squares are the ultimate and the buffalo chicken slices are awesome.They have other pizzerias in the area but Ben's beats them all....hands down!!
Karthik RamanNovember 4, 2014Get the grandma pizza- crispy crust, chewy bread, more tomato sauce than typical slice, but still optimal amount of cheese
Joyce ZhaoMarch 25, 2015Best staff ever! Cash only. They offered me a free slice when I didn't have any cash with me
Ira BJanuary 4, 2020Great for a quick NY slice after a late night of drinking. Try the Buffalo slice.
Lianna シDecember 8, 2014Quick and convenient for NYU students. Certainly not the best in the city, but edible. If you're not in a rush and have time to spare, walk up a few blocks to Famous Famiglia.
ZenFoodsterApril 9, 2015Reliably good late-night Grandma and pepperoni & mushroom slices..even when you're sober. Lol
- Sharon P.December 1, 2014Thought we were going to get ripped off, but it turned out to be pretty darn good pizza. Eat here while you're waiting to get into Comedy Cellar. The margherita is on point.
Michael G.October 30, 2022Grandma slice is excellent. The sauce is a bit sweet and complements the cheese very nicely
Sara 🌈⚔🍾January 22, 2016My favorite place for a bite after drinking. Buffalo and BBQ chicken slices rock.
Matt EdwardsJanuary 5, 2016Don't know how this only has a 7.2. I'll admit I haven't tried much other than their pizza, but I've tried that about 500 times. You can really tell when it's been sitting out though.
Steve AndroulakisAugust 7, 2014Well for cheap pizza it's crusty and flavoursome. The margarita! Eat it while hating yourself like Louis CK does.
HashtagNYUAugust 29, 2014Another one of those cheap, classic NYC pizza places. Hits the right spot. Every time.
The archetype of traditional NYC style pizza by the the slide!
Mariel RamosJuly 23, 2015The pizza it's very good!!! But the man who is in there, he's an asshole...
Chris KonecnyFebruary 12, 2015Pretty decent and quick pizza. Great place to pick up a slice after bars close.
Ava LuDecember 17, 2011Love the late night pizza atmosphere! everyone is super nice and pizza are good too!
- Don't know about the "world famous" claims but definitely better than average NYC by the slice pizza joint. Nothing to see here, so get it to go! (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Rich GallagherAugust 30, 2011Cap off your night in the Village with one of the best late-night slices in the city
If you ever watch the Louie ck show then this is the pizza shop he's at in the opening credits
Shukri BrewerNovember 9, 2010Best Grand Ma pizza in the city, in my opinion. Specially when you get it fresh out of the oven
You are absolutely crazy if you don't try the grandma slice. I've had 40 in one summer
David GreenDecember 5, 2013Used to be my favorite. Now bread is too thick and pizzas have less flavor
Get the BBQ Chicken slice and expect it to taste kind of like sweet & sour sauce
The Grandma's slice is a metropolitan treasure. Which is convenient, because anything else here is barely edible.
buy bottled water and they'll buzz you in the bathroom
- Douglas M.August 5, 2010Eat a slice of pizza then go around the corner to see the Comedy Cellar.. Just like the opening of Louie..
Be sure to flip off any passing celebrity comedians.
PizzaSnobo pizzasnobo.comMarch 13, 2011Sub par. We’ve given this place tons of tries. For those who say they like it, we suggest you try Bleecker Street Pizza, Joe’s or even Pizza Box instead. For more pizza reviews, check out www.pizzasno
- Later, when you can't remember: this is your favorite shitty street pizza in New York. Eat.
- Don't get their Hawaiian slice. The pineapples aren't nearly tangy enough nor is the bacon Canadian enough.
