    the front of the restaurant
    Bernice N.

    I enjoyed my pizza from here. It's not my first time here. The last time I visited I got a white slice. Today I decided to go for the lasagna slice. It was huge and I told them to cut it down the middle. It was so good though that I ate the whole slice. It was hot and crispy, how a pizza supposed to be. Customer service was fast and great. The price was reasonable and worth my five dollars. I would order from here often, but they don't deliver. So when I'm in this area not far from where I live I will buy a slice. So far I can see they have many options to explore. So I give a thumbs up and a - Happy Yelping to you...

    YUMMMMM. I don't think I've ever had a big ass slice of pizza like this before! I literally didn't even know how to pick it up to eat it! It was that big, and FULLL of toppings! YUM! We grabbed a menu and decided on what we wanted before even entering the small hole in the wall. However once I saw the pizzas, I picked one at random, well it looked amazing, and turns out it was a lasagne pizza!! YUMMMMMMMMY! The crispy chicken salad ... this was like having chicken croutons on lettuce, which ISNT BAD at ALL! It's very thin slices of chicken with a thick breading on top. I didn't care too much for the mozzarella sticks though.

    Had a white pizza slice from here tonight. Pretty good. We also had the garlic knots which are my favorite. Good place for a quick pizza.

    I'm not crazy about their marinara sauce they use, however if you're craving a good chicken slice, this is the place to go in Riverdale

    The GOAT of Bronx Pizza. Period…read more If you want to know what real New York City pizza is supposed to taste like, stop looking and get to Louie & Ernie's on Crosby Ave. This isn't just a meal; it's a Bronx institution. The Vibe: Old School & Authentic This place is as "old school" as it gets. It's located in the basement of a house, and walking in feels like stepping back into 1959. There are no fancy decorations or "artisanal" gimmicks--just the smell of fresh dough and a gas oven that's probably seen more history than most museums. * Pro Tip: It is CASH ONLY. Don't be that person who gets to the counter with a card; come prepared. The Pizza: The Best in the Bronx I've had a lot of pizza, but this is easily the best in the borough. * The Crust: Paper-thin, perfectly salty, and has that signature "Bronx fold" with just the right amount of char on the bottom. * The Sausage: This is their claim to fame. They use huge, fresh chunks of sausage that are packed with flavor. It's heavy, it's greasy in the best way possible, and it's legendary. * The Sauce/Cheese: The ratio is perfection. The sauce is tangy and bright, and the mozzarella is creamy and never "rubbery." The Service The staff here are exactly what you want in a legendary neighborhood spot--friendly, fast, and no-nonsense. They keep the line moving, but they treat you like a regular even if it's your first time. Verdict: 10/10. It's simple, it's classic, and it's the king of the Bronx. If you haven't been, you're doing NYC wrong.

Nothing wrong but just a pretty typical slice of nyc pizza. For a place that does slices there's a LOT of searing options, both inside, and this area out the back which is pretty good.

I think people only go here because they know about it, or like us, find it randomly on Google maps. There is a little parking lot. The pizza and pasta were both good. NYC style! The restaurant is filled with paraphernalia, photos, graffiti, and other knick-knacks. I don't think that was for show, they just never throw anything out. Even Mr. Pugsley himself was sitting in an overstuffed chair, falling asleep with his X-Mas hat in the front of the store!

It's got a thin crust, nicely charred, and the sauce was well balanced, not too tart or sweet. We followed with a penne vodka slice to which I added the recommended hot pepper oil. The pasta was cooked just right and quite tasty and chewy. Finally, I had to try the new tricolor slice - thick stripes of red sauce, vodka sauce and pesto. Delicious combo. Pugsley's is not easy to find but definitely worth seeking out. If you attend Fordham, you already know it, but otherwise, its located in a building that hasn't changed much - outside or inside - that looks like a high school hangout from the 60s or 70s.

I mean very busy, with vehicular…read moretraffic, pedestrians, and your food delivery guys on their (mostly) electric bikes zooming by. So, parking is a ball breaker. After you get situated with finding parking, better yet, take mass transit if you can, you'll find a non descript pizzeria. It's CASH ONLY ** they have ATM's inside for your convenience, which I had to use and I think the fee was 2.50$ but I'm not sure. The pizzeria slices are HUGE.-ginormous- colossal!! I thought it was going to be superficially large pizza with a horrible taste. ON THE CONTRARY - NO! The pizza was delicious and I found the salt content to be reasonable, perfectly salted. I paid 38$ for the super sized pizza. My kids devoured it, while my wife took pictures of of the kids eating their kite sized pizza slices. I highly recommend this "Bronx Style" pizzeria. The pizza is well cooked, medium to thin sized pizza and the ratio of cheese to tomato sauce is distributed evenly with a slightly cheesier taste than tomato.

    Yes it a big slice. Probably the biggest you have seen and yes, it is a big pie. Probably the…read morebiggest you've seen. But the fact of the matter is the quality of the cheese and dough is not up to par. The pizza resonates of low quality mozzarella cheese and poor quality bread. I've been eating here on and off for many years and the quality of the product has deteriorated. I would not recommend this place to anyone unless they wanted to "try that place that they heard of on social media or from a friend who ate here 20 years ago. it's just not worth it. They are better pizza places in the Bronx (Circle, Yankee Pizza, Ernie's, Tony's on Throggs Neck, Pugsley Pizza)z If the owner were able to improve on the pizza by incorporating better quality ingredients, I would definitely give it a shot again. I wouldn't even mind if they charged seven dollars a slice for that mammoth slice because it is very very big. But in its current incarnation, I would have to pass on a second round. It's just not worth the money because the taste and quality of the slice is so poor. What happened?!??
