    Jax Parm
    Chanet M.

    I work in the area and am always trying new places, this spot gotta be 10/10 for me. This hero was absolutely insane, the cheese just melts in your hand as soon as you split it in half, those cutlets are perfection & that bread is amazing. Definitely will be returning.

    They're still getting it together and slices are hit or miss here, but it's convenient enough to where I live (and we are in such desperate need of pizza in the area) that this spot is already in the rotation. I went to the grand opening and they handed out free iced coffee and rainbow cookies, which was fun. As for their real food, so far I've tried: + Margherita slice - good + Pepperoni slice - amazing one time I had it, less amazing the second time + Blanco slice - eh, doesn't touch the one at Fini Pizza + Chicken vodka parm sandwich - pretty good filling, bread could have been fresher It's really a 3.5, but I'll round up to a 4.

    I love having a lot of pizza places in the area, I've grown tired of hot pots and bubble tea. This pizza place didn't quite make the cut. The service was super slow and they looked unorganized. It took about twenty minutes for four slices. They don't display the slices in the front. There was definitely too many cooks in the kitchen. I'm only giving them 3 stars because they have only been open for several days. I honestly didn't like the pizza, it was better when it was Juliettes. I definitely have to come back in a month or two. I don't want to leave a local pizza place with three stars. They do sell an IPA here which is pretty cool. We did get the cola that came in a glass. The slices I had was a fake marg slice that was just a regular. I had the other slice that was called the baby luca. The vodka slice was pretty much a joke, such a soggy slice, glad that wasn't my slice. They were sold out of the white slice at 5pm. I want to come back to try the white slice. I say give them a try just wait a couple more weeks till they got their kitchen sorted. The place was super packed. Theres only like 7 or 8 stools with no backs. There is no seating outside, just standing only.

    This pizza joint is so yummy. I love how they include "gourmet" or fancier pizza flavors like fig and spicy vodka. Quality you can taste. The service is efficient and there's some seating if you wanna eat really quick, but don't expect to fully dine in here for long as it's a bit quick and go here Only pizza I didn't like is the middle one in my pic, forgot the name but it has prosciutto. Consistency was watery.. which is a bit weird on pizza. Also wish the margarita pizza had the basils you normally find on margarita pizzas Small things but definitely worth checking out

    Pretty decent thin crust pizza spot in LIC. Nice spot to have lunch with seating inside and out and quick service. The flavor wasn't anything amazing but it was definitely good! The pepperoni was my top choice over the Jax special slice.

    My first encounter with Jax was a good one. Two friends and I each had a slice. I opted for the vodka sauce and it was lip-smackingly good. Visually, it looks just like a regular slice, but you can really taste the vodka sauce. I was impressed with the thin, crispy crust and the delicious cheese-sauce combination that is a hallmark of real New York-style pizza. The price per slice is decent and the service was fast. I dined in at the counter which is definitely the way to go. This area has desperately needed more pizza options for a long-time, and this newcomer (in the old Juliet's Pizza location) from the Utopia Bagels people is the real deal.

    Super nice having a pizza spot right by Court Square, and this place doesn't disappoint. The slices are likely inspired by L'industrie (similar flavors and the slices have the same style), but that's a good thing -- the pizza here is really good. They are thing with a little bit of crisp, but I feel their sauce is really good. I came on opening day and got the Baby Luka (which was amazing with the burrata) and the FBR (which was solid but a little too sweet for my liking because of the fig jam). Prices are super reasonable, and portions are really good. I would highly recommend, and can't wait to try more of their flavors!

    Pizza. OKAY. Pizzeria serves NEW SCHOOL Pizza which quite frankly isn't my favorite type of Pizza. Knew I wasn't CRAZY when visiting my original hometown and finding out a lot of places don't serve the Pizza of my youth. TRENDY for the past decade. For what it is I'd still...RECOMMEND.

    We definitely needed this in LIC , great pizza and good vibes. Love the crust and creativity in every slice . Service is top notch !

    Esther R.

    My friends and I ordered the FBR & Jax special. The pizza was okay (nothing too out of the ordinary). The bottom of the pizza came out burnt, so we were quite disappointed by that. The service was also extremely slow (we waited for approximately 35-40minutes and the inside was extremely crowded. There is limited seating indoors, so I wouldn't recommend coming here if you are wanting to enjoy the pizza on the spot.

    yummy pizza!!! much needed pizza joint in th lic! the staff is great. small seating counter option, so better for takeout

    Jax Special

    From the people that brought you Utopia Bagels, another incredible business! We came by for the Grand Opening and tried two slices - the margherita and the Jax Special, which had vodka sauce and shaved parm. On the margherita, the crust was paper thin, and while there was a little flop, the flavor of the dough sauce and cheese were great. A nice crisp bite of a classic pizza with a particularly strong crust. Now the Jax Special, on the other hand, no notes at all. Absolutely incredible vodka sauce, amazing flavor, spot on crust with a great crisp. A legendary slice. Can't wait to see how far Jax will go because if day one is any indication, this will be a must-visit spot!

    I came here with high expectations as I've heard great things, but I was not impressed. I don't know if it's just a matter of timing or what ( I came around 6pm on a Monday), but my Blanco slice felt like eating cardboard with hardened cheese on top of it. The margarita slice was better, but still not great. Overall felt like the slices I got were not fresh. as I can't see the actual pizza pies from the front, I can only assume they have been sitting out and become stale. Not great.

    I came for the pizza, and while each slice of pizza were solid, I was more drawn to the sandwiches. The philly cheese steak was pretty bomb.

    Dee's has gone from very good to fantastic!…read more Dolores provided some of the most attentive, thoughtful knowledgeable & friendly service we've ever had. No glass was allowed to run dry, no request left undone. (9 extra glasses of ice without blinking lol). The Tagliatelle Bolognese (pictured) is generously portioned and delicious. The Hot & Sweet pizza is not to be missed -- it is SO good we make sure to get it one way or another, as an appetizer or main. Other appetizers like the calamari & Burrata are excellent! We have returned several times recently. Dee's has become a can't miss experience!

    Strong 4...Before the recent game-changing opening of the seemingly instantly James Beard nominated…read moreTourmaline a block away, this was pretty certainly the definitive best restaurant in Forest Hills, by a comfortable margin. While that may rank as a relatively mid-tier title by NYC standards, as the neighborhood restaurant average is sadly and shockingly low, especially considering its location in the literally center Queens, this is nonetheless a very special neighborhood treasure, befitting it's stalwart status at now over 30 years of age. Classic Italian American with some New American flourishes, the place stays consistent and honors its tradition while simultaneously managing to keep things fresh and staying up with the times. The pizzas are well-executed and make great use of the gorgeous wood burning oven, but for me it's almost impossible to order anything else but my go-to order, one of the house specialties the classic Cavatelli with broccoli raab and some particularly pungent hot Italian sausage. A modern day classic in the cannon, finding decent versions around the city is tougher than one might imagine, particularly in my experiences in this borough. The version here, served like the rest of the offerings in an extremely generous portion that usually yields some delicious leftovers to take home, is a strong contender for the best in the borough title. Also of particular note is the exemplary super-thin and savory chicken parm, served in the previous era in various forms including with spaghetti and broccoli, as well as with risotto, currently served smothered with a spicy vodka sauce and paired with rigatoni. I've only recently became aquatinted with the rich and unctuous dry-aged burger, served simply and unadorned save for American and sharp raw union, on a classic and proper sesame seed bun, it's a stealth under-the radar competitor for the best burger in the hood nod with previous title-holder Dirty-Pierres. The expansive, two-room space, an ideal setting for the many private events and family gatherings that regularly occur here is aptly bright and inviting with the aforementioned pizza oven serving as its centerpiece. I generally sit at the bar which offers ample opportunity to converse with the top-notch staff, just as genial and affable as you would hope to find in such a longtime neighborhood institution, as well as the fellow patrons, who are, more often then not, you guessed it, longtime local resident regulars.

    This is probably my third time here since moving to the area…read more I love how rustic this place feels. Service is always on point. The owner or manager always check on the tables. Food wise, how can you go wrong with great ingredients and good classic cooking? I was eating kosher for passover this time. I had the Branzino al forno. A whole grilled fish with potatoes and salad. It was incredible. Perfectly charred, meaty and delicious. The fish was so flavorful. The salad with the lemon on it was the perfect accompaniment. Will definitely get this again.

I ate the pappardelle and tasted the others. Next time I'm getting the gnocchi which was nice and light - the way I like my gnocchi. We ended with tartufo. It was on the small side compared to other restaurants. It was our first time trying Tuscan Hills. We will be back.

    I finally tried Nick's Pizza for the first time and I must say that I am hooked. The restaurant was…read morepacked when we arrived on a Friday night, but thankfully did not have to wait as we didn't need a booth. We ordered a large pie with pepperoni and a calzone with sausage. Both items came out together like we asked and was far too much food for two. My first bite of the pizza was hot, crunchy, and delicious. I love fresh oven pizzas with a crispy bottom crust. The chefs did an amazing job cooking it just right. I also loved the fresh mozzarella cheese and fresh basil. It really elevated the pizza to another level. The crust was great all around with a slight oven char. Lastly the calzone took me by surprise as it had no sauce and was filled with ricotta cheese as opposed to mozzarella. It came with a small cup of hot marinara sauce for dipping/pouring. It was definitely an interesting calzone but don't think it was worth the price. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience and Nick's and would highly recommend it. I do wish the pricing was a bit more fair when it came to full vs half pie toppings as well as the calzone.

    I have to say that I hardly review businesses in this neighborhood because I live in the area and I…read morealways fear writing a review is too premature if I'm going to be a customer in the long-run, but I really have to give Nick his flowers, especially for a recent visit. My friend has a newborn and we were trying to find restaurants in the area that would be stroller-friendly (which actually isn't an easy task, to my surprise) and finally landed on Nick's because we had gone there together when it reopened. And it always seems very family and kid-friendly. We definitely went to the right place. I'm not a parent and I've never pushed a stroller without some bumps here and there, and I was so worried about helping get the stroller through the 2 doors. One of his staff saw us from the inside and immediately came out to help as soon as we reached for the door. Nick's paternal instincts definitely came into full effect because he looked out for us and wanted to give us the best seats so that we can have the stroller beside us. The pizza is excellent and I absolutely would come here over again and again, but the warm service from Nick himself and his staff is what truly makes this place so special in the community for so long. I didn't get a chance to come here during those formative years before the fire but when the restaurant finally reopened last year, it was incredibly sad to hear Nick explain how the fire and rebuilding devastated him and the business for over 2 years.
