Is this the BEST Pizza in New York City?

[@jpbanksnj]

Looks like you guys really had fun making this video, but, C'mon, you gotta throw a score out there for Lucali....

[@MagellanandGreyhound]

For me, Lucali was a 10. And the calzone was a 12 😂. The wait experience was pretty terrible for us and I think that’s why he didn’t rate it. All four of us loved it though

[@MagellanandGreyhound]

Thanks for having us, and so glad you got to try so many places. It's the best food ever!

[@theathjr]

Wow this is a bucket list trip for me. Your stomach’s mustve been WRECKED after this !

[@zzyzx1951]

I'm so hungry now and am only halfway thru this video😊. I'm going to forward this URL to my daughter in NY to ask which establishments she's been to. GREAT VID!!❤

[@markakira8988]

Anthony Bourdain was my favorite travel type show of my life and im 50. Had to retire early from almost 30 yrs at Delta Airlines and accept disability thanks early onset severe rheumatoid arthritis. Theres nothing better than being able to fly for free in first class (IF its available) anywhere you want to in the world. I was always working and although i got to fly to a lot of places i rarely got to leave the actual airport except to and from the hotel that Delta put me up in. I looked forward to reaching a point to retire early and also use my free flight benefits to travel and actually see the world but the rheumatoid arthritis has made that impossible. 😢 I loved how Anthony Bourdain would tell the stories about the areas he would visit and show the local food options. You do this in a more soothing way. I loved him, he seemed a bit of a tortured soul for some reason but i wanted to enjoy watching it with my teenage sons but he could be quite vulgar at time. Your videos are all the info, great views, and info but clean, well spoken, soothing and NOT vulgar lol 😅 Thank you Thank you Thank you! Its obvious that pops raised you right. His sense of humor is a delight. ❤

[@martharunstheworld]

John's is my favorite whenever I'm in NYC, but I like Joe's too! There's a place I've forgotten the name of that's across the street from Madison Square Garden where I love getting a slice before going to Rangers games when I'm there. It's not the best, but for the price of a slice and soda, it's great! The pizza in NYC best pizza anywhere else. And if you have NOT had NYC pizza, don't bother saying how great your pizza is, it doesn't matter. :)

[@chaotictattoo]

What i learned. Everyhing is delicious and everyhing is a classic slice.

I don’t see a rating for Lucali’s? What did you both give it? I went there in September 2023 and that was the best pizza I had in New York.

[@ThroughMyLens]

I had a hard time rating it cause we had such a bad experience with over 3 hours of waiting but I have to say it was at least tied for number 1 if I had to give it a rating, it was sooo good

You didn’t say that our favorite to leave in the comments has to be in NYC so I’ll post mine anyway. Big Bob’s Best Pizza in Oceanside CA! Second place is Brooklyn Brothers in Everett WA. 🍕

[@johnsantoro6788]

You have to sit down at John’s. Totally different experience

[@Little_Muskrat13]

*** I wouldn't come to your conclusion so quickly, given the fact that New York City has well over 32,000 PIZZERIAS ‼️ I did a quick calculation on the length of time it would take one person to visit every one of NYC's 32,000 pizzeria's. Ready ?? IT WOULD TAKE 87 YEARS AND 67 DAYS ‼️‼️‼️ PS - While they did mention a Calzone, they didn't mention my favorite, the Stromboli.

Good selection of pizza spots to try. But the comparison should have been the basic cheese slice, not peperoni.

What was the score for Lucali?

[@tomoflathead]

Damn, went to Industrie but didn't hit up Best right near by which is on the same level!

I don't get it...I went to L'Industrie last spring, and while it was good, it wasn't anything particularly special or different. I got the exact same 2 slices you did (pepperoni and prosciutto/burrata) and was like, these are fine, and that's about it. Why does everyone love this place so much?

I’ve been to NYC and Brooklyn many times. Always solid pizza. Probably my fav pizza here in Ventura CA is Toppers but their creamy garlic sauce cuz it’s not only yummy but easy on my tummy. Second is a new fav Tony’s pizza on the beach. There’s a reason it’s been there forever. Third is meridians, especially their Marguerita pizza. 🍕 I don’t remember the names of the spots in New York probably cuz they were all solid. Here in CA there are acceptable places but not all are the best ever pizzas like back east. Thanks for sharing your fav places

[@ThroughMyLens]

I agree, pizza is always good, no matter where you are haha but New York Pizza is at a different level

[@JungleAWayOfLife]

You didn't try Sbarros.

[@2011woodlands]

Lombardis looked to be the best visually. Try Tony's Brick Oven on Staten Island. Michigan based pizza companies: Little Ceasers, Dominos, BC, Hungry Howies, Jets, and if your visiting wine country try out Crusted Creations in Traverse City.

[@eddieshiew6146]

Welcome to NYC!

[@ThroughMyLens]

Thanks! 😃

[@OllieRamone]

Lombardi’s was founded by Filippo Miloni around 1898, Lombardi owned it briefly in 1908 and then after other owners, it became Lombardi’s after 1918. Also, John’s was actually founded as Pizzeria Port ‘Alba in 1915 by Filippo Milone as well in its original location at 175 Sullivan St. It was taken over by John Sasso, who married Filippo’s niece. It moved to MacDougal Street and then finally to Bleecker Street where it is today.

Well, we can dismiss this video on the strength of the first sentence. It gets worse. Why is this pizza good? It was in a movie. And then it goes horrific. "I like the combination of sauce and melted cheese and peperoni and grease." You mean... you like pizza. You've just stated "this is good because it is pizza." That's NY pizza : "wait, this is weird... you can taste the herbs in the sauce." Do they still put out jars of oregano, cheese, and peppers because they know their pizza sucks? I don't care if my pizza tastes old. That's not a feature. Pizza is supposed to taste good. He may love pizza, but "good crust" is meaningless.
