I think they are one of the best in the city for a classic slice and their garlic knots are superb!!

For me this is the best deep dish Chicago style in downtown Philadelphia. No one really offers it besides N.Y.P.D pizza. read more

Very good pizza with excellent value for your money. Friendly service. The seating area is not very large.

I'm from Jersey been living in center city 3 years. This is the best pizzeria (key word PIZZERIA) in center city. Great quality and great pizza at an unbelievably fair price. 2 slices of quality cheese for 7.25? Insane. Cool staff who get to know ya not a new cashier every week. I'm happy to have this spot close by I grab a slice or two almost every week. read more

FOOD I had their pepperoni slice. It hit the spot since I was hungry and craving pizza, but I wouldn't go out of my way to get it since it is on the oilier side and the crust was a little soggy. That being said, the place is located near the Jefferson Center City campus as well as TJUH, making it accessible for a quick bite to eat. PARKING Paid street parking is available at a limited capacity. read more

Very bare-bones place with good thin-crust pizza. Friendly service. You can eat in at tables in the back but it's got all the ambiance of a veterinary exam room. It seems to be very popular for office lunch orders; they were stacking up an order of 20 pies when I was there. read more

NYPD Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Really solid pepperoni slice, probably as close to a NY slice I've gotten in Philly. Crust was crispy but not overcooked.

I really wanted to like this place. I ordered a personal pizza that was pretty good, and I was able to taste the Eggplant sandwich and it was over-cooked & tasteless. The service deserves 1 star. This place is small inside and about half full. We waited at the door, by the sign that says 'wait to be seated' and waited until finally I went to the counter to get seated. I got up to refill my own drink twice since the server took our order, we didn't see her until we were almost finished eating. Another server brought out our food. I'm not sure if I'll return. read more

No matter what time of day or day for that matter, NYPD pizza is a very solid go to pizza joint in Philly. Yes,parking fuggin sux. Yes, It's across from Jefferson on a busy corner and you will invariably see a cluster of health care heroes , the ailing, homeless, residents and students all within arms length. It certainly is not street appeal nor ambiance that brings you in At All. You go here for the slice. The red top pie is the best because it's saucy and cheesy AF and the dough holds up. But for you pizza purist and pizza snobs who are allergic to the prowess of sauce on top, well, there's the trusty pizza pie formula of crust, sauce then cheese and toppings. The crust has a nice thin crispy bottom with a layer of dough chew. No lumpy tips here! The slice holds up to the fold, quality melty cheese and a more savory than sweet sauce. Sauce to cheese ratio is almost perfect for the redtop pie, I feel that it is slightly under sauced and skimpy with the cheese on the regular pie, but that's my personal opinion. Solid Philly Pizza even if they call it NYPD pizza. read more

NYPD Pizza - BBQ Chicken Pizza and cheese pizza - Pizza Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

This is my favorite place to get lunch in the city! The pizza is the best I've tried in Philly so far and the garlic knots are great too! They have opened indoor seating back up so that is an option, but I like to walk across the street and sit outside to eat. The employees are nice and the food comes out hot and fast. I'm one of those impatient people who refuses to wait for pizza to cool down, but an NYPD Pizza slice right out of the oven is so worth burning my mouth a little bit read more

Always a solid pizza choice. I enjoy the traditional, standard Neapolitan items - regular slices or pepperoni. Also enjoy the garlic knots, calzones and either the Italian or pepperoni boli. If you're looking for something a little different, I recommend the sausage roll as a quick grab and go item. Keep in mind this place caters to the local crowd, so you're talking about Monday to Friday, and your most efficient bet is to pick up the pie yourself. Staff is always friendly and the setting is your typical in-and-out type pizzeria experience for those who live and work in the area. read more

Yelp told me to share a review as if the three slices didn't and doesn't tell the whole story. They don't have smellavision. Go in, order your pizza and it will take you back to your childhood flying kites along the belt parkway near the Verrazano Narrows bridge. The only thing missing is the Italian ices and Dominic pinching my cheek a little too hard at Pisa in Mill Basin. There's your review. End of story. read more

New York style pizza in Philly, does it get any better?! Recommend the Buffalo chicken / margherita slices. Also love how the place is decorated inside. Wish they had a location in Rittenhouse Square! read more

Best Pizza that I ever had, I had the buffalo chicken, but everything is fantastic! Go there!

Excellent pizza! I tried a sicilian and a regular slice, both met my NYC standards. I was very happy. I had mine with green pepper, onions of course, anchovy. After they were heated in the pizza oven (not the silly conveyor belt gizmo used by fake pizza joints), the slices were perfectly crisp just like in NYC. Staff was friendly, seating area was comfortable with a fan blowing and TV on. Walls adorned by NY an Philadelphia items. I highly recommend this place. read more

Pretty good pizza. Went there with some friends for a late dinner after drinks. It didn't take very long -- only about 15-20 minutes. The staff was very friendly, and they have a variety of pizza options. You can probably tell from the pics but we got the Margherita pizza and grilled barbecue chicken. The pizza isn't super greasy -- it's just the right amount. I will say that they went light on the sauce though, especially on the barbecue pizza but it was still really good. Be aware: the pizzas here are HUGE! Don't expect to cuddle up with a friend and watch a movie with one of these because half of it will still be there (especially if you get a big one)! And that being said, if you're going for a medium pizza, the large is only a dollar more a lot of the time. Go for it. Such a good value! read more

Purchase: 3 slices of Sicilian pizza Price: $10.50 Approaching the location, I originally had ordering Alfredo on my mind. Unfortunately they only serve pasta with marinara sauce. So I decided to try the pizza instead. The pizza was pretty nice. The right combination of cheese, crust, and sauce. The staff members were very helpful and they also take debit cards with no minimum. 'll definitely be back! read more

NYPD Pizza - Sicilian Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Pretty decent - it's what you expect when you think New York Pizza. The location of this place is clutch. There is lots of foot traffic, and it's a great spot to hit up for lunch if you're in the city. Though it looked busy, I didn't experience too long of a wait. The pizza slices are foldable, and fairly large. There are plenty of options for toppings, and the crust is savory without being tough or stale tasting. The menu is pretty vast, including not only pizza by the slice and pie, but also hot and cold sandwiches, cheese steaks (a Philly staple), salads, stombolis, pastas, and sides (the likes of french fries, onion rings, etc.) I ordered a slice of their broccoli white pizza. The cheese was decent, but the broccoli felt a little too raw, I think a bit of seasoning and steaming it prior to using it as a topping would enhance the taste. The pricing is a bit more than I would like to pay for a slice of pizza (it'll run you between $3-$4 depending on what you order). Overall the service was quick and seamless, and the employees were great with taking down the order and keeping the line moving. Would come back here, more on a whim than a planned trip, but nevertheless I appreciate that this option exists. read more

I discovered NYPD Pizza when I was in Orlando, FL several years ago. Absolutely loved it and it became a must-do each visit afterwards. I've taken others to it and even had a small business event there. Recently, had family at Penn Hospital and while my sister and I were visiting, we walked around Philadelphia a bit. Low and behold, an amazing sight for sore eyes... NYPD Pizza. It didn't disappoint! Fantastic pizza as expected. The shop is on the small size but it does the trick. The staff were super friendly and fun too. Thank you! read more

This is the second worst pizza I've tried here in Philadelphia . The sauce is bland . The crust is mediocre . I honestly don't understand the hype . I wanted to like this place too as this is way closer to my place than pizza brain or pizza dad's . I ordered two slices which some reviewers praised already on here . The first slice was the red top which although bonus points for not using canned sauce or at least high quality canned sauce ...( tasted fresh) this pizza really lacked salt . 2.5 stars The second slice was a thick style first Brooklyn which honestly reminded me a lot of a sbarros combination slice . Not terrible but definitely Nothing special .3 stars . Which averages to a 2.75stars for the experience . Overall I spent $8 on two slices and honestly would have been happier if I got the lunch special with crazy bread from little ceasars for about the same price . The only thing that was authentically New York about this place was the collective unwelcoming apathetic attitude of the employees that work here . read more

Was looking for a deep dish pizza. It was awesome, only thing I wasn't happy with I added onions and omg there were onions very powerful, next time no onions. Cheese steak was very good. Chef salad was perfect. read more

Thin sliced pizza with lots of cheese and tasty gravy. A great pop-in spot to grab a slice to go.

Yum! I've been here a dozen times and love the pizza here. My go-to's are the buffalo chicken and plain. I've also gotten the cheesesteak pizza, which can be hit or miss. The whiz-to-steak ratio is too high (too much whiz). Highly recommend if you're looking for a slice to-go or delivery! read more

They accept credit card and do slices. Outstanding place full of people that were really friendly. Good pizza. The cheese pulls apart when you bite into it and the ratio between sauce and cheese is solid. Nice crispy crust. read more

Best pizza of my life. Ratio of cheese to sauce to crust is perfect if you like a lighter sauce (meaning isn't falling out from under toppings or between bites). Must try the Panzerotti. It's just a cheese one available here, but it is a game-changer. Basically a deep fried calzone with lava cheese pouring out. We tried this when visiting Philly for a few days and even though we were in town for a short period of time, we still had 2 of our meals here. read more

Pretty good pizza. Not my all time favorite in Philly but it's definitely up there. I was solo for this pizza experience so I got a personal pizza (Neapolitan) with my usual pepperoni and mushrooms. I really couldn't justify getting a $17+ pizza for myself. I have a feeling their regular size pies are tastier than the personals. Either way it hit the spot and lasted for a good two meals. It was a really decent size for being a personal pizza. Toppings: A bit skimpy. Based on the pictures they seem to be more generous when it comes to the larger pies. Will remember that for next time! Crust: Their crust and overall consistency was probably my favorite aspect of their pie. It was perfectly cooked and reheated well in my rather miserable hotel room microwave. Delivery: My pizza was prepared and ready quickly. Only snag was I used door dash for delivery which really held things up. I have a feeling their actual delivery people are more on the ball. If you're ordering delivery you might want to check with them first before going the third party delivery route. read more

The pizza is very much NY style, large slices, thin and oily. The flavor is pretty good though I have found it to be salty at times. I would've given it a higher rating but the staff is not very engaging. Other than asking, "is there anything else" that don't talk to you at all. But, maybe that's the NY style? read more

Came to see "Hamilton" at the theater a couple blocks over, showed up too late for our fancy restaurant reservation so dashed into NYPD PIzza for a quick pre-show bite. Wasn't expecting much, so I was blown away at the quality of the food. Crisp crust, generous amount of cheese, and delicious sauce--I've found most Philly pizza joints have no idea how to make a decent sauce, so this was a great change. We tried cheese, pepperoni and Margherita slices, and we were all satisfied. Place isn't much to look at but gets the job done, and service is polite. Will definitely return. read more

A couple other pizza joints compete for my affection (Soho & the Dock Street Brewery), but NYPD is definitely amazing. Sometimes the grab and go slices can be a little lackluster, but if you order a pie fresh, you're in for a treat. If you swear by a true New York style pie, then this should be your hangout - the owners are Brooklyn to Philly transplants, after all. Having lived in the Chicago area for the first decade of my life, their deep dish pizza doesn't exactly come close to the real thing - but it's a worthy and filling attempt by an East Coast pizza joint. read more

NYPD Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

With so much talk about Pizza going on this week and last I figured that I may as well get a review for a pizza place that I had listed among my back catalog out of the way. after hearing so much about here I was expecting so much from one of NYPD's slices. I don't know whether it was because of the water, the dough, the crust, the fact that it was masquerading as an NY slice, or for whatever other reasons the talk thread suggested in regards to Philly pizza, but all I know is just that it didn't meet the mark of my expectations completely. At least it was huge enough to give places like Lorenzo's a run for it's money when it comes tro the perfect drunken slice (especially if it's open that late?). Overall I could give here a four. But the fact that they had a boy doing the dough spin inside and out of the building kind of disturbed me. I know it was a dough for show, but still! read more

Stopped in for a quick slice around 2:00 the other afternoon and was not impressed. Although I was the only one in the shop, they were upset I inquired about what slice was what. Also when I added a garlic knot it was a real inconvienance to take the two extra steps. I usually appreciate the NY state of mind but this guys attitude sucked. After the pizza came out of the oven, he put it vertical in a brown paper to go bag so all the toppings fell off. The reassembled slice was tasty but nothing special. What a shame. read more

At a loss of words. I ordered pizza for my babysitter and my toddler this evening, as I had to run into work to attend a meeting. They said it would be sent over a little after 5 pm and they would call. I let my sitter know when the pizza would be there and to listen for the knock. I live on the second floor of a 3 story apartment, where you can hear someone knocking downstairs very clearly. I had my phone in my purse and didn't hear my phone vibrating when they called. It is my fault completely for not keeping it my pocket and for not giving them my sitters number instead of mine... and I shouldn't have just assumed she would hear them knocking. The driver left. I saw they had called my phone several times and I called the store back. The owner answered. He proceeded to completely bite my head off - this is not an exaggeration. He told me my address is banned from delivery. I apologized profusely and simply wanted to explain the situation. He began to explain that HE was the owner, not a cashier, and "do you understand how far you live!?!".. and repeated and repeatedly said we will NOT deliver to you ever again. He also threw in my face that they called five times and ya know, that I live far away from the store. The entire time, I apologized. I said I understood the frustration, and tried to explain what happened. I didn't even ask him not to ban my address, I just wanted to explain and apologize. But he wouldn't allow it whatsoever and instead, spoke to me like I was garbage. I've been going here and ordering from here since 2016. I used to walk over on my lunch break every other day when I was pregnant to get a slice, because I craved it. I brought the employees Christmas cookies, and my bf and I order from there at least a few times a month. I work in customer service and understand the need to protect your employees, time, and financials. But I do not understand how a business owner or staff member... or anyone in customer service could treat a customer or stranger or HUMAN this way. read more

I would have loved to try the food but after calling them 3 times over 30 minutes and no answer that tells me they have better things to do. I was in a hotel that had just had a delivery from them minutes before I tried so I know they were open. The hotel recommended them to me but might not anymore since I was at the front desk trying to call for over 30 minutes. read more

Pepperoni pie Solid pie, not outstanding, but gets the job done. Baked zitti Nothing to write Mama about. Some pasta, some tomato sauce with ricotta and mozarella melted on top by placing it in the pizza oven for a few minutes. But the garlic rolls that came with it were pretty tasty. Ambiance Nat King Cole and Dino on the stereo. Cheesy NY license plates on the wall. Also, when I was there, the owner/manager was chewing out one of the non-English speaking delivery men, that really gets my pizza appetite gastric juices flowing. Verdict Take the pizza, leave the baked zitti. Volare w-oh-oh-eh-oh. read more
