Is John's of Bleecker Street Worth The Hype? Is Bleecker Street Pizza Better?

When it comes to the best pizza in New York City, every New Yorker has an opinion. Some would say the famous Lucali's Pizza is the best. Others more say Joe's Pizza in NYC is where it's at, at least the original location if none other. However, one of the spots that is most consistently touted as the best pizza in Manhattan at least is John's of Bleecker Street in Greenwich Village. The legendary coal-fired pizza joint in the West Village area has been around for almost 100 years and has long lines at pretty much any time of day.
But is John's of Bleecker Street legit or is John's of Bleecker Street overrated? After all, the lines are quite tremendous at times, and often times places that are highly touted in NYC end up being tourist traps. To test how good John's of Bleecker Street is, we decided to eat at another well-regarded place down the street, Bleecker Street Pizza. Bleecker Street Pizza is also one of the best pizza spots in the city, with many of you possibly recognizing the Bleecker Street Pizza food network episode. Personally, Bleecker Street Pizza is not my favorite slice, but it is a good one and it will be a good barometer to measure how good John's of Bleecker Street is. Is John's of Bleecker Street a tourist trap or is John's of Bleecker street the best pizza in NYC? We'll find out together!

I had Bleeker street pizza last summer while visiting New York City for the first time. I had the Nonna Maria slice along with a beer! It was so good , I ordered another slice along with a beer. All I can say is that I know what heaven is like. BTW the crust was perfectly crispy. I am returning this summer on two different trips and will be returning with my girlfriend on one trip and my daughters on the other. Everyone has heard go on about the pizza! I will probably try another pizza place while in New York just so I can compare them. After an 8 hour drive to New York City who could resist a slice of perfection.

Great pizza requires all 3 elements to be quality and properly rendered. That being said crust is crust and cheese is cheese ( not saying a good pizzeria should serve raw dough and resin cheese) .It's the sauce that makes a legendary pizza in concert with a well charred/ prepared crust, and quality cheese. Not 100% impressed with either pizza.

Having lived in the tri-state area for so many years, I have had a lot of great pizza that I can tell just by looks that a slice is going to be sublime, great, good, mediocre, ot not worth eating. I have become a huge fan or Margherita, Neopolitan, and Grandma slices because they have so much more flavor, but often exceed $4 per slice, whereas many good pizza slices are usually $2.15-$2.50 outside of NYC.

A well developed crust with great ingredients are a must!

Nah. That's like saying a banana split is all about the bananas you choose

[@FurySquared]

This is why Bleecker Street Pizza is my favorite of the ones I've had. Ever. I haven't had Lucali. I haven't had Di Fara. The last time I was in NY, I wasn't able to make it to Brooklyn. But I did hit up Bleecker Street and John's of Bleecker (among a few others) and I very much preferred Bleecker Street over John's. That crust is just unlike anything else I've ever had. Crisp, but not too hard. It's like a cracker almost. It was amazing. UA didn't like that about it, but I felt that that's what MADE it. I did have 2 Nonna Maria slices, though, and not the regular cheese slice. Still, mmmmm, I highly recommend it to anyone who finds themselves in Manhattan. John's is great too, of course!

[@flashhughes1675]

That's the thing about some pizza places I don't like. They put on the tiniest amount of sauce because they think that is what a pizza should taste like. I'm not saying so much sauce it drips. Just enough that you taste some in every bite.

The problem with whole mozz is not just the richness but the way that it stretches. Munster stretches perfectly for pizza and unlike mozz keeps a good profile after the first melt meaning it's still good when cooled down. That's not even mentioning the flavor profile that's adds that little bit of "mmm what's that"... Well, it's salt BUT... Well, some may just have a custom cheese but if you can't do that what I suggested will be the same, when if a bit more expensive.

I’m late to the party on this but comparing a slice place to a sit down place is not apples to apples! Those slices are obviously reheated, so you’re gonna lose something in the crust!
