A true pizza institution, storied in tenior located just off the busy intersection of Fresh Pond Road and Metropolitan Ave. The buzz inside immediatly suggests great pizza and having not been here since high school I decided on two regular slices and a Sicilian for nostalgias and hungers sake. Some reviews have called this pizza emporium one of the best in Queens and I would be hard pressed to argue that point. The perfect balance of cheese and a refined light tomato sauce, Italian food wether at a posh restaurant or a pizza joint is all about balancing ingredients. Behind the counter the employees have to be the most active of any I've seen to date. Buzzing around like bees in a hive, heating and serving slices from two huge ovens to their loyal public. read more

Its totally insane I haven't reviewed this pizzeria! They have everything!! An extensive entrée menu, with all your Italian faves.....manicotti, baked clams, ziti, lasagna, chicken marsala, chicken parmesan, veal, shrimp...you name it! They also have hero's, shrimp parmesan is my fave! Appetizers, salads, and some really good calamari! One thing I love about this spot is that the pizza counter is always full with fresh pies. No dried up, 2 day old looking slices here! Really awesome variety, cesar slice (delish), margarita, grandma, baked ziti slice, lasagna slice, rigatoni slice, green salad slice, bbq chicken, mushroom, broccoli and chicken slice, and fresh mozzarella and tomato slice. They also have rice balls, chicken rolls, garlic knots, beef patties, and mozzarella sticks on the counter, ready to go! And if your not ready for a hero, they have grilled chicken on a roll with fresh mozzarella....always delish!! Chicken is marinated well, and is always fresh and juicy. Great hours....they are open late and are always busy. Large dinning area with lots of booths and tables and some flatscreen TV's. Its very rare that I go to Rosa's and they don't have what I want, on the contrary, if I don't see it, the answer is normally "its coming rite out!" Fresh pies are always "coming out" and I go late, usually after shopping or hanging out. Cesar pie disappears, everyone loves it, and they always seem to have it! Staff is great, busy but friendly! Place is clean and organized! Prices are good, especially for the quality of the food your getting! Thank you Rosa's for being a great, traditional Italian pizzeria! read more

I have ordered from Grubhub a few times and the food has been horrible , cold And the delivery has been horrible. I ordered from Rosa's Tonight through GrubHub and the food was delicious, the delivery driver listen to my instructions and it was in a timely manner. I definitely would have to recommend it 10 times over read more

The second time I've come here was around 3pm instead of just before closing and wow they had sooooo many more pizza options! Ziti on pozza, ravioli on pizza etc! I loved them before, but my experience was totally different hence the new review. I also ate in this time instead of taking it to go and they atmosphere is really nice. read more

Rosa's Pizza - Whut!! - Pizza Near Me - Ridgewood, New York

The pizza was good but I didn't experience good service. I ordered in advance by phone for my pizza. I came in and waited to be helped. My food was already ready since I came 25 min after ordering. A young male worker asked me if I needed anything. I told him I came to pick up an order and he just told me to go to the register. I waited again behind a lady that was paying. Two separate customers then arrived later. The young lady at the register ended up calling and charging the two customers that came after me instead of going through the line in order. I waited and was helped last and the the two customers that came later were helped immediately before me. read more

They are one of the best pizzeria in the area. They are opened late and have a huge selection of toppings. You can come any time of the day or night and know you can get great customer service. Been going to Rosa for many years and they have always been consistent with all the foods. Highly recommended them if your in the area. read more

I am absolutely in love with this place. The service is very nice and the garlic knots are to die for. They do not do delivery which is a bit disappointing but the food is worth the walk. I love how the service is also quick, you go in as fast as soon as you come out. I highly recommend this place. I also highly recommend the upside down pizza! read more

Best pizza ever. It always tastes fresh, it's not that greasy fast food pizza that makes u feel bloated afterwards or regret eating it. Hands down best pizza in New York!!! read more

My favorite slice place in the city. The array of slices is breathtaking but it never seems like they're adding toppings just for the sake of variety - everything feels purposeful. Their plain slice is one of the best I've had and demonstrates their commitment to the fundamentals. That said, a trip to Rosa's wouldn't be complete if you just get plain slice. I typically opt for the eggplant parm slice and the ravioli slice. What really sets Rosa's apart from the competition is their attention to quality toppings. The eggplant parm on the eggplant parm slice could easily be served on its own at sit down restaurant and the same goes for the ravioli. I've noticed that all too often, when slice places venture far out on the topping spectrum, the quality of the toppings becomes an afterthought. Not at Rosa's. Tip: because they make such a wide variety of slices, not everything is available when it first opens (I've learned this the hard way). If you want to view their entire selection, I'd come at about 12:30 PM or later. read more

Rosa's Pizza - ravioli slice - if this is wrong I don't want to be right - Pizza Near Me - Ridgewood, New York

Best garlic knots I have ever had, hands down. They're like melty pillows with a ton of garlic on them.

Rosa's is by far my favorite pizza place in the neighborhood. The slices are always fresh, large portions, many options and all around great taste. I have been going to Rosa's since I was a baby I have eaten at all the Rosa's but personally Fresh pond road is my favorite. Any of the slices are amazing depending on what you are in the mood for but my go to is always the chicken Cesar slice. Today I dined in for lunch with my brother we had the calamari Cesar salad and Sicilian slice. The calamari were huge well seasoned and fresh. The chicken Cesar was a very large portion with tons of chicken on top. The Sicilian slice was cooked to perfection. I never have any complaints when it comes to Rosa's it is a must have if you are in the neighborhood and want some real New York pizza. read more

I've been to my fair share of pizza places and I reluctantly say that this place may be among the top 5. Cheap, good quality, friendly service, ample seating and most of all CREATIVITY! I could not believe some of these flavors: Taco!?! Caesar Salad?! This is awesome! We went for "Grandma" and "Lasagna". Both were excellent in their own ways. Grandma's had awesome sauce, while the lasagna slice was a cheese fantasy! For 6 bucks, you can't do much better. read more

Rosa's Pizza - Grandma slice - Pizza Near Me - Ridgewood, New York

Placed a Half Plain/Pepperoni Pie for pick up recently and It was just terrible. Extremely greasy, the cheese was falling off the slice, It was just unappealing. I understand with the situation going on there might be less staff etc but For what we got handed to us this place might as well be closed. Definitely won't be ordering anything else from here. Complete waste. read more

Good pizza but take too much time to prepare when you order to go you have to go without hungry cuz you will be waiting for your order.

Will never order from this place again! Pizza is ok but service horrible waited past two hours to recieved the order this sh it sucks

I was at Pepboys nearby getting an oil change and was starving. I do my usual google and yelp search. Was in the mood for pizza. Saw this spot and drove there. Pizza was slamming. Got a salad on the side. It was a small salad should be considered large. From now on, when I get an oil change, I'm stopping here! read more

Planning a party/prom with a low budget is not an easy task. So I just want to say thank you Rosa's pizza in Ridgewood, Queens for making 33 eighth graders with special needs very happy. The pizza was just what was needed to make their prom a great success. Your kindness and thoughtfulness will always be remembered. Not to mention how delicious your pizza is. thank you again and again!!!! read more

Neighborhood pizza place with a decent sized dining room. They have a nice selection of pizzas and other Italian favorites. They have other locations but this is the only one I have been to. When I come in I am greeted with a smile and a nice hello. So service for me is excellent. They can get busy at the counter so sometimes you have to speak up, which for me is no problem. The pizza is very good, if you like thick slices and crust, which I do. Prices are good for this area of Queens where pizza can definitely be more expensive. Definitely worth a visit. read more

The best "upside down Sicilian" you'll get ANYWHERE. And I really mean anywhere because this doesn't exist in Sicily. The sauce cheese crust, everything is just so perfect. I also love their eggplant slice. read more

Rosas pizza is absolutely amazing! I think it's safe to say that rosas pizza is the best in queens, this is real New York pizza! Since I've moved away from New York every time I come visit I have to come here. The crust is just on point, the cheese just melts in your mouth and the heat on the those pepperonis are on point. If you come here you have to try their cesar salad pizza! It's so good! read more

I love rosas pizza, pies, chicken Parmesan plates . They don't do delivery, but I walk there all the time for a sweet slice of that heavenly pepperoni pizza. read more

Latest and Just as Greatest If I'm having a pizza party - I'm having it here. You just can't match their breadth and excellence across the board. It's the latest location of Rosa's, nearly 20 years young. Rosa's seems to do everything and everything well. From squares to sfingiones to chicken sliced salad pizza. They have about 5 men behind the counter and a few women servers at all times. Tons of tables, but it doesn't mean you'll find a spot to eat - they are busy! Opened: 1992 Distinction: 3rd Location of Rosa's Pizza read more

No one should have to wait for a fantastic slice of pizza. Luckily, if you come to Rosa's, then you don't have to. My go-to slice is the fresh tomato and mozzarella. They have a huge array of toppings and combos beyond the usual pizzeria standards. The other items on their menu I've tried are excellent too - baked ziti, Greek salad, garlic knots, among others. read more

Always my go to pizza and never fails to meet my expectations! I've been going here since I was a little girl and I never stopped

The Rosa's is one of the most popular pizzeria in town. They have a great selection Of tasteful pizzas. They have a menu of two restaurants. The store it self is doesn't look so cool, but if you want just eat and go you can't find a better place for pizza. read more

Yea no thanks, was waiting on line and they clearly saw me walk in. I'm waiting to order and some other girl walks in that obviously knows the older Spanish counter man and just walks up and orders. He saw me waiting and took someone else because he knew her. Horrible customer service I'll stick with the rosas on metropolitan, not these unprofessional workers. read more

Favorite pizza in whole NYC since 2015( used to live in the neighborhood). Should I mention that 99.9% of the time I'm not eating meat, but once I come here( now it's happening very rare, maybe once a year)- chicken bacon honey mustard is everything. read more

Great place, great staff, decently priced pizza. Would definitely recommend their specialty slices. Best place in Queens!!!

This pizzeria is good they are helpful a little pricey but it Taste delicious definitely worth going back

Not sure what the hype is about, ordered plain slices and it was one of the worst pizzas I've had in NYC. I expected better!

This is one of my all time favorite pizza spots by far... They have a large selection and everything is always fresh. If you don't see what your looking for they can make it for you... My favorite is the chicken ceasar salad slice, yum. There hours are great. They stay open late and manage to keep everything fresh, must be because they are so busy. The service is awesome here as well... They lose a star because the parking situation is tough. Located on a busy street, the street parking is very limited and competitive. They do have a small parking lot around back (that most don't know about because you can barely see the sign), however the walk from the parking lot to the entrance is so long that I hardly every use the parking lot. I would definitely recommend this place to others. Happy Yelping :) read more

Prices are fair, and the place to be anytime during the week. It's a spacious restaurant where I''ve been with my family on several occasions. They have Ravioli pizza, Buffalo Chicken pizza, and many more spot on classic /creations you can think of. The waitress maintains the entire restaurant, I've never seen the need for two, nor do I think they have had two at the same time. But sometimes she is M.I.A. in the dining area, when you want your check or um.... food. Since the place is large, there are restrooms here. The bathrooms are always clean, but really funny thing, always smell like sauce, so I'm always thinking that they freaking left a slice or something in there ( Italian air freshener, lol) But it's just a very strong smell that goes all throughout the pizzeria. I'm sure they go home smelling like pizza. The staff is nice and friendly, and their portions are for people who come to eat. I will come back. read more

I used to love this location of Rosa's...until tonight. So I walk in to place a take-out order. First thing I saw was a couple of hand written signs: "No cell phones at the counter." Wow. I can understand a few inconsiderate idiots don't know when to shut off their cells. I understand this is a private place of business. But just because some people don't know how to behave in public doesn't mean you don't have to get all Catholic school on us now. Besides, Rosa's a private business catering to the public. Jeez. Personally, I think those signs are just an excuse to get rid of people they don't want in their place. The vibe inside was different too. It just wasn't the same. For someone who doesn't like cellphones, one of the guys who runs the place...he was on the phone himself for the entire time I was there. Hypocrite. F**k them. Plenty of other pizzerias in the area. Plenty of other places that deliver in service and food without the attitude. read more
