    12 in Build Your Own Deep Dish Pizza
    Samantha S.

    What a swanky kind of place. We got lucky and got placed in the 2 seater near the open window. Felt like sitting at a cafe in Europe. I love how the menu isn't massive: they got dogs, burgers, pizzas, sandwiches, and some salads. My husband and I split a Caesar salad, a hot dog, and a deep dish. Note: the menu says 10, 12, and 14 in for the pizza but they told us they no longer do 10in. The Caesar salad was incredible: homemade croutons that have a soft crunch (if you know you know) and PLENTY of grated parm. The hot dog was also excellent! Didn't think a hot dog could blow me away. The bun was poppy seeded and super soft (maybe steamed). And then the star of the show: the deep dish pizza in NYC. It does take like 30 mins, so make sure to get an appetizer. So worth it. Loveddd the crust. A seriously delicious pie. This place felt special - the vibes were good. Great music playlist also.

    I've had Chicago deep dish pizza twice before: one at the gold standard Lou Malnati's and once in the O'Hare food court. My experience at Emmett's fell somewhere in between those two precedents. Like others I suspect, we grabbed two bar seats here after the wait at Raku was too long. The homemade potato chips we ordered during the 30 minute wait for the pizza were excellent. I would definitely come back to have these again with a beer. As for the pizza, the structural integrity post-cut left something to be desired, but the flavors of the slightly sweet sauce were very good. We ordered with fresh garlic as a topping, which might have been a mistake, as the odor was a bit too strong.

    I think this is the only spot in NYC for authentic Chicago Deep Dish. The pizza was solid. I was also so pleasantly surprised at how wonderful the Greek salad was. The service was quick. The deep dish takes 30 minutes to bake, which we were told upon ordering. It came out at almost 30 mins on the dot. So that was pretty awesome. The space itself is a bit tight but, I think they do the best they can with the space they have. It's always full because the food speaks for itself!

    Was able to get a spot for 2 at the bar on a Friday night without a reservation by showing up at 6:30! (I would highly recommend getting a reservation if you can though!) Pizza was fantastic , we just got a pepperoni pie, but then got hot honey and some of the paprika ranch to dip it in and it was fantastic. Love the little pizza timer they bring out to make sure that the pizza is a perfect level of doneness! They no longer have outdoor seating so the seats are pretty limited, but it's a super cute restaurant, perfect for a date night, and also a great spot to bring someone from out of town for a classic NYC pizza experience!

    The pizza was great. The fries were great and the atmosphere was great! Inside felt well lived in and cozy, the perfect atmosphere for eating such good pizza. The staff was friendly acknowledge and even though they were very busy, they were very attentive. The prices are reasonable, the service is exceptional, And if you are a match book collector like Me, they have really cute ones!

    Chicago Style Hot Dog
    Andrew L.

    Terrific Chicago style deep dish pizza. Had not had deep dish pizza in NYC since Uno Pizzeria closed so wanted to give Emmett's a try. Started with an Arugula Salad and a Chicago Style Hot Dog but it was the deep dish pizza that was the star. Had one with pepperoni, pineapple and extra cheese and one with sausage and caramelized onions - both were excellent. Very small but lively restaurant with not a lot of tables. Can feel a little cramped when crowded but the pizza makes it worthwhile.

    I can't speak to the service because I had this pizza delivered, but when I've passed by before, this looked like a lively after-work hangout spot. The cheese pull on the deep dish pizza is never-ending. I wish that the tomato sauce was spread more evenly around the pizza, but I found that the sauce slips off anyway as you grab a slice. While this might not be the most convenient pizza to eat, chances are this deep dish pizza will satisfy your deep dish cravings! The crust is toasted perfectly golden and isn't hard. The bread under the sauce and cheese is soft and fluffy.

    If you are a New Yorker who is craving deep dish, Chicago-style pizza, look no further! I grabbed takeout, but the interior was exposed brick walls, tons of people at the bar, and super cozy. My order was on time and perfect. I'll be back!

    Pizza arrived raw. Had to throw it out. This is so gross and disappointing. I will never eat here again.

    The sausage classic
    Dre G.

    Let's talk about this vibes that come from here it's all chill, easy to enjoy an afternoon of deep dish pizza. The sausage classic.! It's just pure goodness. Start off with mozzarella sticks. Service is amazing. It's quick you get time to relax and just chill and totally love it.

    We got patio seating outside and it was pretty warm with the heaters. I decided to try their Deep Dish Pizzas since I missed out my chance on trying it in Chicago. It was pretty good but this was definitely a heavy pizza. This Buds For You ($29) - lots of veggies (contains spinach, mushrooms and onions). Well flavored however I still preferred the Meat Lover more. It was more cheesy and I just like meat better. 3 STARS Meat Lover ($33) - lots of meat. Pepperoni, sausage, Italian beef. Very cheesy. I would order this again. 4 STARS. One pie is more than enough for 2 people. We had to packed the rest of the pizzas to go since we couldn't finish it. Service was good. We got water and take out box/bags when requested.

    My family and I went here for some deep dish pizza and wow it did not disappoint !!! Soo delicious. The pizza sauce tastes home made. Meat was cooked fresh. My husband and I had a spritzer as well !! We ate in an outdoor area. This wasn't as wonderful. The smell of the city street was still apparent and the loud noises on the street. Also the tables were close together. The service was sub par. We were a party of five and they only gave us 4 plates. My husband had to go find another serving plate. To place the order after waiting ten minutes, my husband had to seek out a server at the front. The bill also took an exceptional amount of time to come out. But besides the service and ambiance , food truly was second to none. Order to go.

    Cheese Louise
    Lewis M.

    This place hit the spot on a cold day. Needed something hearty. Ordered a thin crust and a deep dish as well an Italian beef sandwich Thin Crust - Hot Papi. I didn't think it was too thin. Still was able to chew on something rather than a cracker 4/5 Deep dish - Cheese Louise. For a deep dish this is perfect amount of cheese sauce and dough 4/5. Italian beef sandwich. Good with a beer 4/5 Besides the food I really like the chill vibe

I love the balsamic dressing, arugula, tomatoes, and bufula mozz cheese the most out of the whole sandwich! The dressing made it really good and soften the ciabatta bread for easier chewing. My poor mouth and teeth! The whole panini cost $22.21 including tax in cash. There was an atm machine by the entrance in case you don't have cash. The whole place was very cozy and tight knit chairs and tables on both sides of the restaurant. The staff was very fast and I got my panini in not time. I did not have to wait that long. I was just amazed at the size of the ciabatta bread. They had many different types of bread that I can try next time like the focaccia, sfilatino, and semolina bread that looked really good behind the display glass. They got 35 different types of panini sandwiches for you to choose from. Most of them contain meat and there are some vegetarian options that are not so pricey. I will try those next time!

    If you want a sandwich that earns your loyalty over decades, Parisi Bakery & Deli is that place…read more I've been eating sandwiches here for as long as I can remember, and the remarkable thing is how nothing has slipped--not the quality, not the care, not the magic. Every visit reminds you why Parisi has survived since 1903 while trends and neighbors came and went. Let's talk about The Dennis--the undisputed star and a true signature sandwich. This thing is a monster, built on Parisi's legendary fresh-baked bread that somehow stays crisp, chewy, and perfect no matter how much goodness gets piled inside. You get a crispy breaded chicken cutlet layered with thin-sliced prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, sliced tomatoes, and (if you know what you're doing) roasted red peppers. It's all brought together with their house balsamic blend and basil herb spread/pesto--bright, savory, and completely addictive. I cannot confirm or deny that the sandwich is named after me, but I can confirm it's flawless. Pro tips: * Cash only, old-school rules apply. * Come hungry or plan ahead--this sandwich is big enough to share or save half for later, and it still eats beautifully round two. * Tip the sandwich makers. These folks are artists, and the tip box deserves some love. Beyond the food, Parisi is living New York history. From its origins as an Italian bakery on Mott Street, to feeding generations of locals, to being famously beloved by Frank Sinatra (yes, the bread was shipped to California), this place is woven into the fabric of Little Italy/Nolita. Legends like De Niro and Scorsese are fans, and you can still feel that old-world soul--right down to the original brick oven relic resting in the basement. Parisi isn't just a deli. It's continuity. It's tradition. It's proof that when you do one thing incredibly well for over a century, people keep coming back. And once you've had The Dennis, you will too.
