    Spaghetti Cacio e Pepe
    Alli C.

    Rainy day dinner of Cacio e Pepe; better than what I've found in Kentucky! Loved hoping into a random business and finding a delish and affordable dinner. Yum! Quick service and a cool NY vibe.

    Solid pizza spot with heroes, calzones, pasta and various entree options. They have a lunch special from 11:30a to 3p, 2 plain slices and drink for $6.50. Very NYC

    Stopped in here while walking down the street to Empire Cake. Any time there is a slice house I am more than game with swinging in and grabbing a few. Not a large area - but for grab n go and a few tables inside and outside. They weren't busy as it was right after the lunch crowd. The guy working took our order and got us in and out quickly. We shared a grandma (square with pepperoni) as well as a margherita slice. Both were VERY GOOD. Arguably the two best slices of the weekend. Dough was fresh, proper bake on each, and fresh tasting ingredients. I noticed they also had pasta options as well, so this could be a fallback if in the area and reservations elsewhere falls through.

    My friend and I came to NYC to catch a show at Racket NYC and stumbled upon this place. So happy we did. Small place with limited seating, maybe for 16 people. If that's the case then grab a couple of slices to go. I had a fantastic Greek salad which had tons of feta, Kalamata olives and a tasty house dressing. I also had a Grandma Slice of pepperoni. Cupped pepperoni! Perfection! My buddy had a couple of Grandma Slices as well with the whole wheat and said it was delicious. We shared an order of garlic knots and I don't know if it is legal to walk out of here without getting them. Plenty of soda choices including Jarritos. They do have more than pizza on the menu and will probably try an entree next time I am in the Chelsey District.

    Good place to go for the lunch special. Don't expect anything fancy or mind blowing. Two mediocre slices and a can of soda for $6.50 - which is a pretty great deal in the city. The restaurant is clean and cuter than you expect it to be. Small, with a few tables and chairs should you choose to eat there. The cashier will act less than thrilled that you have decided to visit the establishment, but consider it part of the New York ambiance. Very important note: the lunch special begins at 11:30am. Avoid like the plague from 11:30am-12:30pm on weekdays. There are schools nearby and the entire place gets overrun with loud tweens and teens. Nightmare fuel, for real. Otherwise, drop in and enjoy a cheap bite to eat.

    The food here was pretty good for a first visit but the slices were deff a must with the variety as well ( kiss the fingers). The service was quick an easy didn't have to struggle on ordering anything. It was also decorated like something out of a small Italian spot not like a pizzeria but more of a small villa on the coast but then you look out the window and it's the big apple. For a person who's always on the go for a few slices was deff a must go deff gonna order else be prepaid es for a star update after the second visit

    Pepperoni and Sausage

    Small place with limited inside seating, making takeout the option that day. Luckily, I've done delivery twice and their pizza travels well. Unlike a lot of other places, they don't skimp on the toppings because you order more than one. I worked in a pizzeria during college, making thousands of pies...so I have some experience to make that statement. Some restaurants spread the ingredients further out to increase the profit margin, which negates your enjoyment. They'll say it creates a better visual, which it BS...it's $ they're looking at. Some alleged foodies have bought that BS and spread "the visual" perspective on their reviews and social media. You can prefer plain cheese pizza because it's a taste preference, and we all have them...but show me someone who orders toppings on a pie and doesn't want said toppings in each bite, and I'll call fraud. Pizza is a guilty pleasure food. Look at the pie and you can see Rocco's philosophy on pizza; pepperoni cups filled with unctuous spice and chunks or unsymmetrical balls of ground Italian sausage. I haven't had the opportunity to eat table-side there yet, but if it gets to your home in a box this good, fresh out of the oven on your table has to be better. Cheers

    Standard cheap NYC pizza. Tastes like all the other pizza shops. Their Grandma slice looked fantastic and I wish I had gotten that instead.

    GRANDMA SLICE
    Jeffrey C.

    This grandma slice is the best slice in New York City . If you are looking for great slice . This is place to be good drinks and great food

    I can't believe I didn't get a picture of this pizza but I vote the cheese slice here too be the best in New York or had the crispness, the sauce the cheese!! Enriching delicious you can think of was there. Keep it up Roccos!!

    Typical slices, pep and mushroom
    Frank T.

    My favorite "pizza joint" in the city, well at least in Chelsea. Your typical slice, or pie, done right. Really nothing to complain about as a slice goes. I'm in this neighborhood quite a bit and stop in whenever I need something quick and don't want to think too hard about where to go. Delivery is also very good if you're in their zone.

    Loved the floor tile and that they have my favorite soda.

    They have gluten free and vegan pizza! It's a solid place in our book for that :-) A nice little outpost for a pizza drop-in. Nothing fancy.

    It should be dollar pizza because they use cheap ingredients. 4 people standing behind the counter while the dining area was dirty.

    I had such a fun experience at See No Evil Pizza. The pizza flavors were incredibly inventive…read more(definitely not your standard slice) and everything we tried felt thoughtfully put together. The arancini was a standout: perfectly crisp on the outside, creamy inside, and served with a rich, delicious sauce that tied it all together. We ended on the tiramisu, which was absolutely worth saving room. It was light, flavorful, and a perfect finish to the meal. What really elevated the experience, though, was the staff. Everyone was genuinely kind and helpful--especially notable for New York--and it made the whole evening feel relaxed and welcoming. A small heads-up: it's a bit tricky to find, so give yourself extra time. That said, the hidden, underground subway setting is part of the charm and makes the whole experience feel unique. I'd love to see more restaurants creatively use these kinds of spaces in the future.

    Tucked away in the most unexpected spot, See No Evil is truly one of those rare hidden gems you…read morealmost don't want to tell people about, but absolutely should. It is located right in the hallway of a subway entrance, next to a bar and across from a coffee shop, and it somehow manages to feel like a cozy, sit-down restaurant right in the middle of NYC. Don't let the odd location fool you, the food here is outstanding. The Neapolitan and Sicilian-style pizzas are both exceptional, with rich, well-balanced flavors and perfectly executed crusts. Every bite tastes high quality. Also, don't skip the house-made lemonade! The experience is even better because of the incredibly friendly and attentive staff. They were all so kind to so many people. From offering to keep leftovers in the fridge until a customer was done at their broadway show, to offering a scone to a young child while he and his father waited for their pizza to be done, it was more than just flipping a table and onto the next tip, it was humanity at its best. Be sure to give See No Evil Pizza a try. You certainly will want to come back again for more.
