SolJanuary 28, 2019Best classic NY slice you can get. Wait for a fresh pie, they come out every few minutes
Christina PadronSeptember 30, 2018This is the best NY slice hands down! I’ve tried so many places, and Joe’s can’t compare!
Vincent SteursNovember 14, 2013Amazing pizza! Good for a slice on the go when walking in the West Village. only 6 seats, cash only!
Adam KubanAugust 16, 2011The plain slice here is not going to blow your mind, but it is miles above other pizzerias in the area. It's basically a quintessential NYC slice. They're thin and light. You'll need at least 2 slices Read more
Jay MarzMay 18, 2013One of the great classic New York Pizzas. A plain slice will do. You can also get a Mexican Coke. Perfect together.
Marc MayerJune 3, 2015If you see a pie come out of the oven, ORDER A SLICE OF THAT PIE. real nice cheesy slice, great for a quick bite.
atomly leeApril 4, 2014Quintessential NYC utility slice! The only toppings you should be putting on this slice are crushed red peppers and maybe some parmesan...
William NelliganAugust 10, 2014Not a surprising a slice, in the same way that Shake Shack's patty isn't a surprising burger. Joes makes the best version of a classic NYC pizza.
macfixerJune 30, 2017Bring cash, and although they do offer toppings, keep it simple so that the line keeps moving.#protips
Sharon KnapikMarch 8, 2015Best pizza ever. And I make my own pizza dough & sauce from scratch. Pity I don't live in the City. Visit Joe's on every visit!
MischaJune 26, 2015Great slice! As many people say here do not ruin the wonderful experience of a simple slice with funky toppings- Edward MansonApril 28, 2017The best slice in NYC normally queued out the door but it's worth the wait.
Georgios GatosApril 18, 2017I was expecting more. Very busy so they don't take the time to serve you appropriately. They don't accept credit cards. Pizza was ok and cheap.
Chris GampatJuly 29, 2017Spot for a quick slice and then sit down in the park. They have everything from Stewart's too.
Hadeel OmerJanuary 3, 2023Everything here is so good. Get the margarita and the Sicilian pizza. Yum!
Yera HaOctober 5, 2014Grab a slice, sit in the park across the street, and don't make eye contact with any of the hungry pigeons.
CarlosMay 30, 2016Authentic and genuine pizza bar. Great, awesome, but they are not the best pizzeria.
Tracey HJune 18, 2012Maybe I've been eating too much Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza, I wanted a little more seasoning on Famous Joe's pie. Next time I'll add some red pepper flakes. Good though, and no grease!
MichelleSeptember 27, 2014Thin and crispy, the slices are the perfect late night meal after a few too many drinks. Cash only
Christine HaMarch 1, 2016Very good classic NY style slice. Open late to satisfy post-drinking hunger. 🍕
A must if you come to NY and are in the west village. My mouth is watering just writing this.
The quintessential New York slice. I always stop in and grab one when I can!
- The quintessential New York slice. My aunt lived next door in the 80's and Joe's was my introduction to NYC pizza.
Shawntini SantiagoDecember 8, 2012Fresh mozzarella w/ pepperoni... Little garlic, Italian spices& parm cheese. Is the way 2 go
Emilio VitoloDecember 30, 2014Love this place for a great NY slice at night ..best American slice in my eyes
Jarel HillJuly 5, 2017Delivery was definitely solid. Didn't understand the hype but will def go to the actual restaurant to try from the source.
Expect a line but well worth the wait, pizza the way it oughta be
PizzaSnobo pizzasnobo.comMay 26, 2013Tasty thin slice, but Dept of Health only gives them a 'B' as of this date. Take it one step up and the people will thank you, Joe!
MeliAugust 5, 2013Thin slices of pizza but the entire crust is sooo crispy! Extremely thin layer of cheese...perfect for someone who is semi-lactose intolerant.
Ben MackeyNovember 28, 2014Pizza + famous people in photos on the wall. So pretty much every pizza place in NYC...
Eric HAugust 10, 2014Manhattan's best slice joint. Plain slices fresh out of the oven are near perfect...
- the mozzarella and the Sicilian are my two favorites - bring cash!
Roger RSeptember 29, 2016A great example of old school NY pizza. Not the best around but worth every penny
Carol RoodMay 26, 2014Awesome slice of pizza!! Pepperoni was crispy around the edges, and cheese was hot and gooey! Yum!
mark harveyJune 18, 2022Good to get a slice as many other pizza joints only sell whole pies. Cash only though so that is annoying. Decent quality 7/10
