Well, I still find it annoying that the toppings just sort of lay on top and fall off the pizza. I do have to admit, though, that a seven dollar lunch in Southend is worth a little inconvenience. The pizza is actually very good. It all starts as cheese and put your toppings on it then throw it in the oven to warm it up. I don't know anything about the mechanics of pizza, but maybe sprinkle a little more cheese on top of it so that the toppings stay where they're supposed to be. Pizza comes out super quick and there's plenty of seating. I like that the tables have the bar across the bottom so you have kind of a foot rest. Overall, I'm changing my three star review to a four star review because it is good pizza at an excellent price which is hard to find down here. Just make sure you keep that slice horizontal!

28 in pepperoni pizza
Rachel M.

We had a fun time with a group of about 12 adults and kids so we got 2 of the 28 in pizzas. This was a good amount with leftovers! Everyone was very nice when we came to pick up the pizza. They gave us plates and seasonings. They even came to help us open the door since it is hard to carry the large box out!

I popped over from Hi-Wire next door for slices to go and it was a great choice. Yes, the pizza slices are $5+ here but when you see that it's from a 28" pie and one slice covers TWO plates, one slice is a meal in itself. Meatballs for me, mushrooms for Mrs. K. and it did not take long for them to get topped and heated and boxed up. Cody, the dude who was slinging pizza this evening, was a great conversationalist while we waited for the heating up process. A real trip and a pleasant person! Great pie from Benny Ferrovia's! (If you're taking pizza back to Hi-Wire, look for the special spot for dropping off / stacking up pizza boxes so the bins don't fill up!)

We should have believed the reviews that said these slices were giant. We were feeling hungry so ordered SIX slices. For TWO people. Needless to say, we have leftovers on leftovers. My fave of the bunch was The Mac (veg special for July) followed by the pepperoni. I grew up on Papa John's garlic sauce, and I was so excited to see a garlic dipping sauce option on the menu. Nostalgic & delicious. Benny's is a solid place to grab a slice that will fill you up and hit the spot!

Cheese pizza14" individual slices

This was my first (and definitely last) time trying Benny Ferrovia's Pizza--and the experience from start to finish was a letdown. I ordered two 14" cheese pizzas online and arrived around 9:50 PM on 4/13/25. The man working didn't greet me--just said "what can I get you?" I told him I was picking up an online order, gave him my name, and he immediately acted like no order existed. I showed him my phone with my order confirmation, and he said something like "I don't know how that works" or "I've never seen that before." Instead of asking for help, he just stood there. After I spelled out my name (I-S-S-A), he finally found the pizzas literally sitting behind him on top of the oven the whole time. No apology, no effort, just a really off-putting interaction. And after all that? The pizza wasn't even worth it. The cheese pizza barely had cheese on it--tasted like mostly bread. I don't know if I came on a bad night, or if it's better during the day when it's less busy, but this was super disappointing. I wish I had the same experience as those 5-star reviews, but sadly I didn't. This whole experience felt like a waste of $10, and I'm not coming back.

Benny's! I've been wanting to try Benny's ever since I saw a post with a girl holding a pizza spice up to her face. I always thought "her head is probably small." Welp, mine is definitely not haha. The pizza slices are indeed humongous. One slice is enough for anyone. I don't care who you are. One slice is enough! It's a small, super casual pizza place with tvs. If we're in the area and craving pizza again, we will return.

The little pigs. All the pig in the middle. Pizza definitely undercooked.
Julie P.

We love Benny's - especially the Noda location - but this location has been more of a "miss" the past 2 times we've gone. The flavors are great, but the pizza isn't fully cooked and the toppings don't have time to bake into the cheese. I should say, it seems like this location does base cheese pizzas and then adds toppings when you order. Case in point, my three little pig slice last night. When I folded it, all the toppings rolled into the middle. Same with my kids pepperoni, when she picked it up, they just slid off. It would be fine, if they gave the pizza ample time to bake in the oven, so the cheese could melt and be the "glue", but it hasn't been the case recently. The girls working there were super nice and double cut my kid's pizza without issue (but I did ask the gentleman when he took my order to do that, so I'm glad I checked before leaving).

Jalapeños Cheddar pizza- AMAZING!?
Merna A.

Benny's always has friendly, fast service, even when they are slammed on a Saturday night! I love this place and will always come back when I have a pizza craving

Being a NY pizza snob and searching high and low for a good slice, Bennys knows exactly what they are doing! They offer pizza by the slice and pie. I do also like the variety of beverages they offer! If you're looking for a casual, fun, and laid-back environment, this is the place to go! Their original location in NoDa is great too! That is where I had my first Benny's experience, but that location is not ideal for me, so I was super pumped when they opened up in Southend!

1st time at this location. Solid pizza as always. No issues with service or food. Took a star away because the lobby needed cleaning

Nancy F.

The pizza slices here are HUGE! I tried the Versace slice which was a special slice of the day. It's a cheese slice topped with garlic pesto, onions, and green peppers. I believe the specials change daily. There's also a list of different beers to buy and outdoor seating is available. Friendly service. I will be back next time I'm in town.

We stopped in here for a weeknight late bite when our options were somewhat limited. Thankfully at that hour, street parking in NoDa wasn't too bad, we got a spot just off the main drag. Slices here are GIGANTIC, one is easily about 3 standard slices of pizza, or two normal NY size slices. We got a pepperoni and a cheese. The pepperoni had nice kick to them and the cheese was a high quality. You had to let the pepperoni grease drain onto your plate a bit, but that is expected. The thing that makes both slices so good is the garlic butter bath all around the crust that you can see them doing in the kitchen. Not just that, but the texture in the crust will make even non-crust lovers think again. You're basically left with big doughy garlic butter breadsticks. Definitely a 5 on taste. My only complaint, and I'm sure it is partly by design to keep people from staying long, the stools you can sit on to enjoy your pizza inside the restaurant are THE WORST I have ever placed my derrier on. Even for 15 minutes, it wasn't just uncomfortable, it was painful. It took me a couple blocks to start walking correctly again. Might as well just get rid of them and have people stand to eat. Terrible. Almost knocked a star off for it, that bad. Regardless of the world's worst stools, I would come back for more pizza and just plan on not eating it there.

I also appreciated that it wasn't overly greasy but to me I don't love a sweet sauce, and this definitely leans on the sweeter end. The downfall for to go orders is that you don't get to order a specialty pie and I think that's where a lot of the magic is. It's hard to get a pepperoni pizza and have your socks blown off in my opinion. I think in the future I'd want to dine in and have the pizza fresh & do a specialty pie and see how it compares!

I went solo, I was hungry and heard really good things. I waited an hour and 5 minutes for a single seat at the bar but that's okay I get it they are busy. The OG pizza sounded good, it came in about 20 minutes. I like a thing pizza and this was super thin, however it was so crispy it cut the roof of my mouth and it must have been sitting around or something because the sauce was not hot and the cheese was hard like it had been sitting out for to long. Like I'm hungry so I hate half the pizza! But this could have been so much better if it was just cooked well. The dough taste good sure. But having good ingredients means nothing if you can't cook it good. I'd love to give it another shot some time but this was just not great pizza.

But the salad dressing was nothing close to a typical Caesar dressing. Very mediocre. Hope someone is reviewing food and preparation and getting opinions of others so corrective steps can be taken. Staff is very pleasant.

The waiter was efficient, not friendly but not unfriendly either, just doing his job pretty much. Would have been nice to have him check on us once or twice but again not the biggest deal. The pizza: my son really enjoyed it and gave it a 5/5 and hubby ranked it a 3/5. He thought the crust was a tad too soggy. Side Caesar: 3/5 had some pieces of the lettuce that should have never made it in the salad and the dressing was just okay. Morty: also a 3/5. Too much arugula, we took some out and then seasoned the rest with s&p and some crushed red pepper flakes. It just lacked a depth of flavor and the bread and arugula overpowered it. The seasoning helped a bit. I even added garlic aioli based on a review I read on here but I didn't taste it. The pasta salad it came with also lacked flavor, though very green and appearing loaded with flavor it was not. And when eating it, the texture was very gummy. Didn't finish that. Overall, it was okay but I'm not likely to return just because there are better options based on the things we tried. But taste is subjective and it just wasn't our vibe today. But check it out for yourself because we only tried three things and the pictures of the other pizzas do look amazing. That is all!
