I've been eating here since I was a kid so I guess I'm biased but it's ok because they are pretty much the BEST! I used to order only the chicken calzone because they're amazing- especially with the sauce- but pretty much anything you get here is a hit. I love the crust and the sauce of the pizza- plus all the staff are friendly and always make me laugh. Definitely a must if in the area! As others have commented- they DO NOT DELIVER, so be aware of this when ordering. However, most locals place an order and pick up. They also only accept cash- that is the way it has always been- but luckily there are multiple banks in the area (Chase is a block away and TD is two blocks away). read more

Fantastic quality and taste! I ordered eggplant & pepperoni. Great pizza, but real heavy dough and the eggplant is fried - so it's gonna weigh you down! But I will be returning to try some other great topping combinations they offer. Next time I think instead of one pizza I will probably just grab a couple different slices and a calzone or roll. Only problem I have is that they are CASH ONLY! So make sure you have enough on you or you will be out of luck when it comes to some delicious pizza! read more

Absolutely the best pizza in Westchester. Also, their specialty dishes are delicious and generous.

Great pizza! The Reverse pizza is out of this world. Wonderful service- but cash only. Quality is consistent, but oh how I wish they did delivery. Parking can be a pain when trying to get take-out. But overall, it's so good that I'll take the added hurdles for their delicious pie. read more

Recently moved to the area and tried them out. Wow, amazing Pizza and great spirited staff

When I moved to NY in 1999 from LA, I dreamed of finding the best slice of pizza. I believe I found it in the their Sicilian Slice. It's been ten years since I live anywhere near this place and yet, I often wake up in the middle of the night craving a hot, gooey, crispy, and saucy slice of Sicilian pizza from this warm and friendly little joint. It's a true neighborhood pizzeria with local family serving the delicious eats. I've had other food here that I truly enjoyed but it's the Sicilian pie that brings me back. I miss you and hope to see you soon. read more

I love this place!!!!! Eggplant parmesan is really savory with cheeeesy layers of the tastiest eggplant. Flavorful homey sauce!!! Great service and always always entertaining. read more

If you don't know Pelham Pizza you are missing out on everyone's I know favorite. Super good food and they are nice. They are the real deal.

So good best pizza so cheesy and has a good amount of sauce yum come again I recommend this place.

I just moved to the area and tried this place the other night. I called to ask for a delivery but they do not deliver, which I found it to be a bummer. Either way I decided to order anyway and went to pick up the order with a friend. Once we were ready to pay they claimed they only take cash, NO CREDIT OR DEBIT. Thank god my friend went with me and had the exact cash or else we would have had to leave the place with no food, as i had no cash on me. Oh also apparently they do not have wings at this place either... just giving a heads up. Aside from all the inconveniences Pizza had a good taste. read more

Went on a Saturday night and it's a regular looking pizzeria. Staff is really friendly and welcoming. We got seated pretty quickly even tho it was packed. Hot bread with butter came to the table. Me and my friend ordered the small arugula salad, which was big! Beautifully plated with arugula, diced tomato, red onion, shaved Parmesan, and balsamic drizzle. Omg, it was good. My friend ordered the Escarole and Beans soup. I'm so mad that it was actually better than mine!!! It had tiny pieces of prosciutto throughout and it was garlicky, but not overpowering and it just so flavorful. The beans were tender and the escarole wasn't over cooked or hard. A couple of us ordered the pizza and again it was delicious. It was hot and fresh and the crust wasn't soggy. The sauce had a nice acidity and sweetness. My friend got the eggplant slice with a big piece of fried eggplant on it. So good. My other friend got the clams oreganata. It was the only thing that was a disappointment. There were 6 large clams stuffed with bread crumbs. They had a weird flavor, so one bite was enough for me. Overall, we loved it and will be back. Great place for pizza, salads, and soups. read more

So we were looking for a local Pizza spot in our new hood ;). (We miss Emilio's in our old hood). We found Pelhman Pizza on Yelp and decided to check it out. There were a lot of people there. It's a fairly small spot. There was a wait to sit, so we go some slices to go. We were impressed. The staff was friendly and accurate - even with so many orders going in at once. They seem to be a family place, having t-shirts with rememberance of Gino. The food was pretty good. The eggplant slice was delicious. The crust of the sicilian slice was great with just enough oil. My husband's spinach slice was yummy and a roll, with chicken marsala he got was delicious. Next time we'll try one of their entrees. Thanks Yelp for a good find :)!! read more

I've eaten at this place about 200 times. Really. I know Bubba, Pino, Sal, Gino, Paulie, Everyone. They're about the nicest guys you could meet and its not an act. I've seen them outside of the job and they remember your name, and always care how you are : ) Hi Guys.. Now for the food. I don't think there is anything here that isn't 95% better than everywhere else. REALLY. Even their burgers are insane. The pizza is sick.. The dishes and sauces are always perfect. They have a Thai chicken salad with peanut sauce that is really really good that I only had once. I come here for Pizza and italian food. But the pelham crowd needs things liek Thai salad from Pelham Pizza so they do it .. and well. I LOVE the chicken Palermo.. Nobody does this dish as well as Pelham Pizza. If you have a little cold or sinus thing it's GONE after eating that. And there is ALWAYS enough to make a nice lunch out of the next day. GO TO PELHAM PIZZA. You won't be let down. read more

I hope someone there (Pino) reads this. You guys are losing it! Your pizza used to be great. Your service used to be great. Now your sauce is .... eh. And you guys stand around and talk while customers like me wait for service at the counter. Also, I have ordered things that do NOT come to me the way I wanted. I ask for Romaine lettuce and have gotten Iceberg. I have asked for one thing and got another. And another thing; if I ever go there again and have to wait at a table WHEN IT IS NOT CROWDED AT ALL for about 15 minutes for someone to take my order. I will NEVER GO THERE AGAIN. A waiter should be prompt, aware of people and their needs, and courteous and quick. If you can't have good waiters (the girls are ok but you have a few new guys that really suck) then find new ones. Once again - you are slipping and the word is out. A few of my friends don't even go there anymore. They go to Villagio's. I have recent;y gotten the personal pizza from Louigi's and it is very good. Than there is also the other pizza place across from the police station so - WAKE UP PELHAM PIZZA - you are slipping big time. read more

This has quickly become our favorite pizzeria in Westchester. You can tell all of the ingredients are fresh and authentic Italian. The service is quick and the staff are welcoming. They are a cash only business. read more

I've never been disappointed with anything that I've had here at Pelham Pizza. Pasta is good, sandwiches are good, pizza is great. The owner/staff are so pleasant, too. Only con... They don't deliver. :( I know this Yelp profile says they do, but they do not. A sad shame, but well worth the trip to the store front! read more

Pelham makes a great overall pizza. The baked dough is crispy yet also chewy, the cheese is rich and stretchy, and is sweet, savory, and spicy enough. Perfect balancing. This is THE best pizza in Pelham, which is a huge accomplishment considering the rival pizza joints (several of them all within walking distance) are pretty darn good themselves. read more

Let me start by saying that Pelham Pizza is very good pizza. Large pies of the mostly standard variety, offered in both round and Sicilian style. I saw on Yelp that Pelham Pizza has earned a 4.5 rating. Wow! And walking distance from home so I had to check this out. The same stellar rating (at the time of my visit to Pelham Pizza) as Johnny's in Mt. Vernon, without the hassle of a small and narrow parking area and large lines? Higher than King of Neapolitan Pizza--Pepe's in Yonkers (4.0) and no Central Ave in Yonkers, which leaves my take out cold before I can hit the jug handle and point myself in the right direction? Superior to the Deep Dish Sicilian Icon--Sal's in Mamaroneck (4.0) without the trek? Better than non-traditional newcomers (relatively speaking) Frankie and Fannuci and Burrata? I had to try this place for myself to see what is behind its lofty rating. The traditional pie is the standard NY pizza--large round pie cut into substantial triangles that are best enjoyed folded in half to be eaten. Not thin crust, but a not-too-thin, not-too-thick bottom layer but with a thick fold of crust around the outer edge. Not my personal favorite but again, the standard NY pizza variety. So just to sample I bought a slice with pepperoni (the classic--a good pizza place MUST do this one right) and a slice of Sicilian. Restaurant is decent, I took out so I can't comment on the service, but in the few minutes I waited it looked like no customers were searching for their servers, who walked quickly from table to table. But it's mostly a take-out establishment with just a row of tables. For the slices, they were good. The sauce is acceptable (a bit dried out on the Sicilian slice). A generous coating of cheese, and a layer of thinly sliced pepperoni that were laid out to cover as much territory as possible, the only spaces left for cheese to peek through were left from the gap that two adjacent arcs couldn't cover, a plus in my book. But all of this is fairly STANDARD. The crust and ingredients are far superior at other pizzerias mentioned above, so I'm left to wonder about the 4.5 Yelp rating--is it the quantity? Convenience? Lack of options in the immediate area? I would certainly eat here again, but I would put several other options ahead of this one. read more

I live in Los Angeles. Whenever I fly in from L.A. to N.Y, I RUN to this pizzeria with my kids and my wife. I grew up in Mt. Vernon. I spent many years eating pizza throughout Westchester and the Bronx. I am in my 50s and have been eating here since I was a teen. Simply put this place has the best pizza ANYWHERE! There is nothing like it anywhere else. I always get regular pizza just with cheese. This last trip I tried the sausage slice. Their calzones and Sicilian are amazing and always very fresh. I've made two trips to Pelham Pizza in the last month. I won't go anywhere else when i fly in to NY. Oh, and by the way: I am tough on service. I eat at many fine establishments throughout L.A. and NY. The service here at Pelham Pizza is excellent. Keep up the good work! read more

Awesome regular slice and even better chicken marsala roll. The staff is very friendly and treats every person with respect. Pelham is a very small town, but one thing it does well is pizza. read more

We came to this place randomly on a road trip. It was fabulous. The pizza had a delicate, crispy crust, absolutely perfect. And I could eat that broccoli rabe with sausage every day. Friendly service and decent wine. Loved it! read more

Pelham Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Pelham, New York

The chicken parm heros here are spot on.. The service is also very good..

I moved out of Pelham about 20 years ago and today I was there for the first time in 20 years. First it was like I never left. The food was just as delicious as I remembered. My wife who never been here agreed that everything was great, my daughter as well. We had penne ala vodka, chicken Parmesan dinner and a regular slice and a marinara slice. Food was just old school great Italian Food. The people who worked there where so warm and welcoming which made everything that much better. I was sad to hear that Gino died though. Can't wait to go back and it won't be 20 years this time. read more

Located about a block from the Metro North in downtown Pelham (about 2 miles north of the Bronx), this is what New York Pizza is all about! Chicken Pizza! That's right. It is incredible. Well, then again, every type of pizza I've had there has been pretty amazing. As an earlier Yelper wrote, this place really is one of the best kept secrets. But don't get me wrong, Pelham Pizza is always busy and you normally have about a 5 minute wait. However, if this place were a few miles down the road in the Bronx or Manhattan, this place would be one of the premier pizza places in the city. read more

We've picked up twice from here, trying different pizzas, and enjoying every time. Satisfies even the pickiest pizza connoisseur and delights young and older alike! Try the lasagna pizza for something different and yummy or go classic with margarita or a meat lover's with pepperoni and sausage. read more

Best Pizza at Pelham!! Fresh quality tasting pizza and the environement is very welcoming. Cant wait to go back again!

Great pizza, my favorite. But make sure you check with them if they're still open, they tend to close earlier than their hours say

Love this place. Great place to get a good authentic slice of pizza. The people are super friendly and they always get my order right. My new favorite pizza shop read more

Get the "exotic" pizza. The buffalo pizza was really great as was the eggplant parmesan pizza. I didn't like the plain pizza. The place was packed and there was a constant line which must say something! read more

Yes, this pizza really is as good as it gets. I'm a pizza snob and I haven't found any pizza I enjoy more. The best is when you order a pie and have it there and they bring it to your table and cut it, and it's too hot to eat, but you don't care so you burn your mouth, but it's worth it. Pelham has some of the best pizza anywhere and Pelham Pizza is the crown jewel. If they ever close I don't know what I'll do. read more

Family owned Bronx style pizzeria. Perfect crust, perfect slices - great Sicilian pizza! It is the quintessential NY pizza experience. Walk up to the counter order your slice to go or stay and eat at one of the booths. Yes it is cash only. Yes they have a menu of other great red-sauce offerings from soup, salad, eggplant parmigiana etc. Yes when it is crowded you have to sometimes push your way to the counter past the folks waiting for booths and take-out. But all in all the experience, taste, quality and welcome of a well run, classic NY pizzeria. If you are in the neighborhood - stop bye - you will be glad you did read more

I love getting the house salad here, they put magic in it that makes me want to eat salad! Pizza is very great quality. Can get very busy during lunch time during the week. Service is speedy though, and staff is friendly. Extensive menu besides pizza. They DONT take credit cards though. read more

Love this place, spaghetti w/meatsauce is so good, great salads, pizza eveything i love it here.

The regular cheese slice was A-OK. Huge, lots of cheese, thick crust, a bit too much oil and definitely not enough sauce (and too pasty). NY style - reminded me of the great slices I used to get in the Bronx but not as great, unfortunately. The eggplant parm dish coming out though looked great. Might just have to return for that. read more

I went here the first time a year ago. Can't remember what kind of slice I had but I was not impressed. Went back this weekend because we needed a quick bite and our usual spot has less tables. I have to say it was so good that we went twice. Over the course of two days we tried 6 different slices. My favorites were chicken masala, spinach, and white pizza. Service was good, prompt and friendly. Pastas looked amazing and we look forward to going back to try them. Can't believe we've been missing out on this gem. Great for families. read more

Good service, good food. My family are fans. Really busy, and for a reason.

Best pizza I have ever had. Wouldn't even consider another place even close to Pelham Pizza. Luckily I live less than a mile away so I can enjoy frequently. From the service to the food, this is exactly how a pizza place should be. Amazing read more

Finally got a chance to try their pizza the other day. I ordered a regular slice, an eggplant slice, and a arugula slice. The reg slice was surprisingly my favorite. I loved the sauce / cheese ratio. The arugula slice was my least favorite. Not a fan of the tomato sauce underneath the arugula. Looking forward to trying other things on the menu. read more

Amazing pizza! Amazing service! The staff is soooooo nice and accommodating!!! What a great place! We it three slices for two of us and didn't leave a crumb on the table. Also, the place was hopping on a Monday night! I'm so glad we tried a new place! We'll be back as often as possible! read more

All I can say..... The BEST PIZZA AROUND... try the Arugula Pizza. All their food is EXCELLENT I'm just a pizza junky. Great staff and very friendly. Keep up the great work!!! read more
