Delicious, consistent, great value. We've been eating there for years. Our go-to when we have guests.

We've been to New York Pizza Plus quite a bit, and when ordering from the menu, the dinners and food have always been really good. That's why today's experience was a little disappointing. We decided to try the buffet, and unfortunately, it was pretty picked over. The pizza looked like it had been sitting out for quite a while and was very dry. I think the buffet could definitely use a little more attention and fresh pizza being brought out more frequently. The other issue today was the temperature inside. It was very hot and uncomfortable. If the air conditioning isn't working properly, I feel like customers should be given a heads-up before entering, especially if they're planning to sit down for a meal. We still enjoy this restaurant and have had many good experiences here, so I'm hoping today was just an off day. We'll definitely be back to order from the menu, but we probably won't be doing the buffet again anytime soon. read more

We hit this place as we spent night traveling south. I saw it had more than your usual pizza shop. So we stop for an overnight as we headed back home and we tried it for a sit down meal. Wednesday evening is the seafood pasta special. I got it and we had a bottle of wine. The young man serving us was a treat and the store offered olive oil from a local source as well as other retail items. We spent more than planned but we hadn't imagined that a little shop would be so loaded with gems to enjoy. If we lived near this place it would be a favorite and regular restaurant. read more

Had an amazing first experience at New York Pizza Plus this summer! I am not from this area, so I visited here for lunch on the recommendation of some locals. We stopped on a Thursday in July for lunch on our way into Gainesville. The store is located on the corner of a strip of several businesses. There is a shared parking lot for the strip, but we did not have any trouble finding a spot. The restaurant was healthily busy, but we were seated right away. The inside is cozy, but can accommodate larger groups in the back room. I was in a group of 5, and we all opted to eat at the lunch buffet. Having previously eaten at chain pizza buffets, I did not expect the variety and quality that this buffet offered. In addition to a plethora of pizza and bread options, there were various cold salads (such as chicken, tuna, traditional salad, etc), and hot pasta and Italian dishes. It was an amazing spread! I had to make sure my eyes were not bigger than my stomach, since everything looked so good. I started off with a plate of salads and cold items. I love a traditional salad bar, but my favorite from this was the pesto pasta. Next, I tried some of the hot Italian dishes and pizzas - including the meatballs, hot pasta, and several pizza varieties. I did not have a bite of food that I did not like. It truly all was so wonderful. Not only was the food awesome, but so was the price. For the lunch buffet, it was under $100 for five to eat (cannot recall exact price, but I believe it was around $14 or $15 per person). I do not think you would find a better deal for a better meal in the area than this, for the price. The staff and service were great. My drink was refilled several times, and I noticed the buffet was refilled frequently. No complaints on either front. I could not recommend this place enough! I would encourage everyone to visit for the lunch buffet, it is truly a deal you cannot beat. I can't wait until we're back in the area so I can visit here again! read more

Well, it was a beautiful Sunday and we were planning on going. outhere to eat, was looking forward to it the last few days .as I saw that they had a nice salad bar buffet and a pizza buffet we got there early as to beat the crowd after church. We were sat down right away, and we hit the salad bar first as the pizza had not come out yet, was very impressed with the salad bar and the other hot foods and the pizzas when they came out. We did not have to ask to have our water. refilled, once every five minutes or so, somebody was coming by taking an empty plate and refilling. our water, asking us if we enjoyed the food, I told them yes, i can only imagine how good there meals are, they are the same owners as o sole mio in jonesville. Look forward to coming back and trying it again. Maybe for dinner next time, the buffet only runs from 11-3pm every day. It's not a bad drive from gainesville, and it's so worth it!!! One of my top 3's now!! read more

Big menu with plenty of Italian dishes to explore. They have a great weekday specials which my colleagues and I get together to go eat when we want a break from the office. Food is good and the portion sizes are good. You get complimentary bread so be sure not to fill up quick. We all got pizza and salads which were good. The staff is friendly and the kitchen is quick so if you work nearby it's a great place to go for an hour lunch. read more

Food was delicious, fresh and flavorful. Staff was attentive, friendly, and personable. We traveled from out of town for mountain biking and decided on this restaurant on a whim. So happy we did, will definitely come back next time we visit San Felasco! read more

So just started working in the area and really wanted pizza for lunch, it's just me so a buffet sounded good. The food itself was ok, not a lot of actual pizza options seemed overkill with salad options. Was told it was $14.99 but by the time they charged me 3% for using a card and a tip it was $20 for lunch. Glad I tried it but I won't be back. read more

The olive oil here is the very best anywhere. Use it for anything a tincture, a dip, for salad dressing or to cook with. This is the best Italian food in Florida. The food, service, and atmosphere are outstanding. read more

The best dining alachua has to offer by a big margin. Excellent vibe and place to enjoy italian food pizza and refreshments .

All the helpings are super huge , nice for later midnight snacks read more

Went for the lunch buffet after seeing a couple of positive post about it. Got there around 1245 PM, not super busy, we were promptly seated and our drink order taken. Went to the buffet and was visually underwhelmed. Not as visually appealing as the reviews, and my mind, made it out to be. Minimal salad ingredients but did cover most of the basics. Hot food was well, not great but serviceable. Pizza was taken from the "by the slice" pizzas out front and placed on the bar. Other entree features seemed bland, reheated or just leftovers. Not impressed but will give them another try with conventional menu offerings to see how they stack up. All in all can't say I would recommend the lunch buffet. Hopefully made to order items from the menu will increase the rating. read more

The pizza here tastes good , but its not worth the belly ache i always get afterwards and dealing with the snarky wait staff.

Great Pizza! Free medium cheese pizza if you buy an Extra Large. Smells like a real NY Italian restaurant when you walk in

The staff was nice and the pizza was great. We found this restaurant last night by accident by evacuateung hurricane Milton and coming back to Florida , this was a great experience and I will come back to this place. read more

The food and the atmosphere both were very good. I enjoyed the variety of the menu the chef checked all my dietary needs when he saw me ordering a cauliflower crust pizza. That's above and beyond. Great restaurant. read more

I'm ashamed to admit how quickly I ate this pizza. It's hard to find a pizza place that makes -good - pizza. Some places have way too much sauce or too much bread, this is the perfect ratio. I got the original New York, which has a thin crust, but not so thin that it's like a cracker, and it has that nice sandy bottom. Light, not overpowering sauce, and mozzarella. I got it to-go and reheated it in the oven at home and it was amazing. It was a little more expensive than other pizza places but would definitely get again and am interested to try some other items on the menu. read more

Best pasta, pizza, and rolls we have ever had. My husband and I were both thoroughly impressed. He ordered the Roma spinach pizza, and I ordered the lemon Francese pasta, upgrading to the pasta imported from Italy. Both dishes were incredible. The imported pasta was a game-changer, and we even ended up buying some pasta and flour to take home. The quality and flavor of the ingredients were outstanding. The atmosphere felt very homey and small-town, adding to the charm of our dining experience. Our server Turner was phenomenal. He was attentive, quick, had great manners, and got our entire order correct. All around great service. We will definitely be back. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for authentic and delicious Italian cuisine. read more

Always have had great food. Such a variety of Italian food. The staff have been pleasant, knowledgeable, and have responded quickly to any of our questions. Most of the time it is enjoyable.

Had a delicious chicken parm and spaghetti dinner there. Followed up with a pizza two days later.

The servers were friendly and helpful the moment we walked in the door. You have several options. You can order premade items from the counter, you can order items off the menu or you can sit in the room with the buffet and help yourself. My family did the buffet! Very reasonably priced and quick as we were just passing through town. The manicotti was officially my favorite item on the menu though the bruschetta pizza was fantastic! My daughter enjoyed the meatballs and my son devoured the spaghetti. The pizza was very fresh and cheesy. New food was constantly coming out of the kitchen. I highly recommend the brownie and the delicious lemon cream puffs. We will be back! read more

Delicious, never been disappointed! Great food, excellent service, clean restaurant.Garlic Rolls, pizza, spaghetti!!! Yum read more

Update: 12/22/18 Today my fiancé and I were pressed for time so we stopped in for a salad and a slice. We were seated quickly and ordered a beer, a slice of pepperoni pizza (each) and a side salad. The beer was cold, the salad was fresh (tomato could have been more riper) and the pizza was good. We ordered fresh basil on the side and that really adds a fresh touch to any slice. It was a fast lunch and just what we wanted . Looking for fresh, delicious, pizza with the perfect balance of crust, tasty sauce, cheese, and your favorite toppings? Look no further! Tonight my partner and I went the Take-out route. We ordered an XL cheese pizza with a side of fresh basil and an order of garlic rolls. We were told our order should be ready in 20 minutes but it was closer to 40 by the time we got there to pick it up. We drove 5 minutes home and got our movie ready to play and then served our pizza. It was still pretty hot, perfectly cooked, and the basil was super fresh. The garlic rolls were pretty good but I like them with more garlic butter than these had so ask for extra if you like them more buttery. We have also gotten various pasta dishes to go and have never been disappointed. The salads are always fresh and they have a good variety of desserts as well. So, if you like yummy, authentic Italian food (dine in or carry out), this place is worth a shot read more

The pizza was very good, my only complaint is quantity. You sit around 5-10 minutes while they promise that more pizza is in the oven. They bring out like 4 pizzas, but in reality it's 2-3 slices and 4 types of pizza. They drop it, it's gone within a minute and then you wait another 10-20 minutes hoping they bring more. read more

Great service and professional a d welcoming service. The lunch buffet is a great variety of food

This place has the BEST pizza we have ever had in Florida and we are pizza coni suers from NJ. We love pizza from NY and this is just like it. All of the food is delicious. One favorite is the Chicken Gorgonzola. They serve garlic rolls that are fantastic. They also have some amazing olive oil and different flavored balsamic. Just ask to sample one and you will be hooked. We are 4 hours from our home but will be back as much as possible for a pizza and Italian food fix. Staff is great and the owner Stella is a true joy to talk to and super sweet. We highly recommend this place read more

I highly recommend this restaurant. On this occasion I ordered lunch online, I had the Stromboli with ham and broccoli as well as the side salad. Both were excellent. The Stromboli was large enough for two meals Especially when paired with the salad. I have also eaten in house and have had the lunch buffet. The lunch buffet has a ton of variety - Pizza, Garlic rolls,pasta, multiple salads, fruit and dessert. Lastly I have used this establishment for catering. From Christmas Eve lasagna to a catered work lunch for 60, the food has always been exceptional. Also the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. read more
