I would say that Sy's is nothing to write home about but good enough to satiate your craving for greasy pizza. It's cheap as heck and I'd bet it's awesome after a few (or several) beers. They're open late on weekends too. read more

Sy's pizza is definitely a go-to whenever I'm back in Eugene. The prices are great, the pizza is a delicious, and if you've ever had a soda from them, you know they have the best ice around (Sounds weird, but seriously, it's the best. Ask anyone.) Just wish they had more seating, but if you're looking to pop-in and out, it's more than ideal. Props to Sy's and keeping it local! read more

Yummy fast pizza with a lot of options for toppings. Garlic knots are delicious as well. Close to campus!

Great for those going to college nearby, this is pretty basic pizza. They bake it right there, but nothing to write home about. California Pizza Kitchen is much better. read more

Great place for late night pizza. Pick up and go is ideal because it can get crowded with only a few people.

I don't understand what all the hubbub is about with regards to Sy's pizza. Please don't misunderstand me; Sy's is solid, and I'm especially partial to their Sicilian pizza, but Sy's is far from the best pizza you can get in Eugene. So perhaps they're a bit overrated...but the garlic knots are just so cute! :3 read more

Love Sy's pizza, especially late night. A Classic Eugene stop

I like the pizza's taste, It's good enough for a quick splurge by the slice. Always fills me up when I go. The toppings are a little bit pricey, since you pay for each one. The pizza can be pretty oily and falls apart when you eat it. It's definitely one of my favorite places to eat pizza at. The place is small and usually I get to find a place to sit. Employees have always been sweet and provided us with quick service. Soda and little garlic knots are sorta pricey, though. Haven't gotten a full pizza, but they're pretty darn expensive. read more

I received a slice that was blackened on the bottom. I nicely asked if I could have a slice that wasn't so burned. The guy behind the counter became irate and told me that I had received a "perfect slice." When I told him I don't like burned pizza, he became rude and told me I was wrong. Oh well. I lived in Eugene for six years back in the late 80s and early 90s and used to eat at Sy's when Sy was making the pies. It was good then and *never* burned. And in the many years I lived in New York, I was never treated so rudely in any pizzaria (or any restaurant, for that matter). It seems that -- since Sy sold the business -- the customer is no longer right (nor important). read more

They have the BEST white pizza! Get it by the slice or a whole pie. Give it a try, you won't regret it!!! Also this place is small and seats are limited, but definitely perfect if you're running in for a quick fix! read more

Really nice people working there, and delicious pizza! I go there once or twice a week and it is a great place for college students to get lunch. read more

If you're into NY style pizza I guess it's pretty good. I find it too greasy, expensive and it seems like everytime I walk into it there's fly's all over the place. Just kinda scummy. But not bad. read more

Absolutely my favorite pizza in Eugene. It's not gourmet or especially fancy, but it is traditional new york style pizza that's exactly the right size and has the perfect amount of cheese, sauce, and toppings - all of which are tasty. But the crust is the best part - this is the kind of crust I've looked for in pizzerias since I moved to Eugene, but it wasn't til I went to Sy's that I said "aha! here it is!" I can't even eat some other pizzas I've had here anymore, because I am so tired of spongey, tasteless crust. The place is small and could be cleaner, but if you want cloth napkins and wine service you should go to Mezza Luna, where they will gladly take your $15 for a small pizza that has candied walnuts on it. If you just feel "in the mood for pizza," go to Sy's. read more

Students love it...why? I'm not sure; maybe because it is cheap and convenient but it's certainly nothing to write home about. It's not horrible but when the BF kept talking about getting Sy's before we head home, I was expecting greatness. It was decent pizza, didn't get sick but didn't was more than just one piece...and coming from me, that's saying something. read more

It's quick and easy pizza that is thick and I think it's delicious. It doesn't have a huge selection and it's pretty low-key.

Expensive, poor quality pizza. After eating a slice you body will hate you for it. I regret spending my money there.

I Love Sy's! If you're going to school at UofO or escaping from the confines of your PeaceHealth cubical look no further for a great made to order pizza by the slice. Sure it's a little spendy hole in the wall and someone with patchouli oil may rub up on you while you wait but it's one of the best NY style thin crust in town. Sy's Matters! read more

Certainly the best place in Eugene to get a slice of authentic NY style pizza. I've been coming here since I was a little kid and it hasn't changed. Great hand tossed crust, quality cheese and sauce, and just the right pop when you fold the huge slice in half. Free parking in the UO lot behind the building after 6pm. read more

BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE ON THE BLOCK! Thanks to the lovely staff i enjoy every visit i make there. they are always smiling and they even wave if you are walking by the window. the food is amazing. very tasty! if you haven't tried the Garlic Knots stop reading and go get some! they are awesome! read more

Sy's pizza is definitely my favorite pizza place, and I've been to MezzaLuna. Unlike MezzaLuna though, the crust is much thinner, the sauce tastier, and best of all cheaper. There are many different kinds of toppings u can put on a pizza at Sy's than MezzaLuna's, but so far my favorite has definitely been bacon with onion. For just $3.50 you can get one slice of pizza about 8 inches to like 5 inches from the crust? That's my guess anyway. Great place to eat, but sadly the lacking star is for the lack of seating space and crowded feeling I get there. The line actually intersects with some seats, so I always get it for carryout. Overall, you should try it. read more

I was given a gift certificate for a Neapolitan pizza & I was completely surprised by how wonderful it was. The crust was soft and tasty, but not too doughy. The toppings were great & the pizza had plenty of cheese. Finally, it was finished in record time. I will go back! read more

DELISH!!! Came to Eugene from NYC to visit family and heard about SY's. Very surprised and happy when I tried my slice and it was yummy. It's not easy to replicate NY pizza but this definitely hits the mark. Highly recommend and I will be back! read more

Decent pizza close to campus. You pick your own toppings by the slice.

Been eating here off and on for nearly 30 years. Decent pizza and has always been consistent quality. Nothing fancy or weird, just good straight forward pizza. read more

The service there is terrible. Half the time we go in, they are either super awkward or have major attitude problems but the pizza is pretty good! read more

As a former New Yorker, a great pizza looks flat to the eye. Not so much dough that it becomes a bread-like filler between the crust and the top. And remember that word - crust. A great New York pizza has scorch marks on the bottom and an edge that ever so slightly crunches. Most people are brought up with a more banal style pie. Chicagoans eat pizza squares that look like slices of lasagna. If you want the true NY experience, the only place in Duckville is Sy's. It's a pizza litmus test. If you like Sy's, it will be tough to stomach the other pizzas. If Dominos is your thing, go for it. Keep that Gotham torch lit, Sy's. read more

Their pizza is mediocre and overpriced. It's lacking in flavor, with rubbery cheese and bland crust. You can find better pizza at Sizzle Pie, Falling Sky, or Whirled Pies. I'm sure it's fine if you're out looking for a slice while drunk, but not worth ordering out for. read more

I absolutely love New York style pizza, and Sy's does not disappoint. Their slices are large and the prices are fairly reasonable. I really liked when they had a restaurant on Silver Ln because that meant being able to avoid the obnoxious crowds and traffic on campus. But more often than not, when I'm craving Sy's, I don't mind putting up with a little inconvenience. The only thing that really truly bothers me, is that there seems to be little regard for hand washing. In the 10 years I have been going to Sy's, I don't think I once saw them use good hand hygiene. They take people's money, then touch the pizza toppings/handle the pizza slices, all without washing their hands or wearing gloves. Gross. read more

A cheap slice that makes a good lunch, one covers a paper plate. I took a (squeamish) friend here once and after she watched the guy behind the counter take our cash and then grab our slices without washing his hands, she wouldn't eat there-- just something to know about the campus Sy's, they're always like that as far as I've seen. If you're not bothered by that, you'll have a nice lunch! read more

The best customer service of any place in Eugene! The pizza exceeds all other food choices on Alder. You can smell the heavenly aroma from Sy's all the way down the street. They are fast at getting orders and do not sacrifice quality in the process. Garlic knots are a great addition to the pizza! Crushed ice makes every soda even more refreshing. read more

What in the god damn world happened to this place? We ordered from them earlier this week and the pizza was lukewarm and had a rubbery consistency. read more

This is, HANDS DOWN, the best NY style pizza in Eugene. I frequently visit NYC and still think that Sy's certainly hold's its own. I would suggest Sy's to anyone looking for good NY style pizza or a good, easy place to eat delicious simple pizza! read more

I hate this place and am never going back. After an actually decent slice of pizza with some friends, I tossed a can of Coke into the trash with my plate. The guy behind the desk proceeded to come over to me yelling, with explicit language, about how I should have recycled the can. We nearly got into a fist fight. Just don't go unless you're very conscious about your waste. read more

I've never had anything bad here! My favorite pizza place in Eugene, although the location is very inconvenient for me.

Eck. The place is super skanky, and apparently being a hip greasy dive is what passes for "New York" in this town- shame. "Dive" works for a bar; not so for getting some food WITHOUT a side of E coli. The pizza is "styled" New York, as in big thin & greasy, but bleh; cold, greasy, tasteless and uninspired. How do you make thin crust pizza so sad and limp? Pathetic. May be a great place for broke students to fill up on drunken munchies, but if you're looking for a tasty pizza experience, move on. read more

Absolutely loved this throwback of a Carry-out or dine-in, by-the-slice or by the pie, campus pizza parlor!! Being from Chicago I'm as critical as any windy city denizen when it comes to good pizza. Although 'New York' is in the name, this pizza totally satisfied my craving for good plain cheese thin crust pizza while away from home. I was advised by the younger set of the relatives I was visiting that if I wanted pizza I had to try Sy's. They were spot on as far as I'm concerned. The pizza is just right, especially to grab a slice before heading to the airport. I could have had any number of toppings added; I also had the option of a Cecilian slice (a thick pan pizza). I knew what I wanted though, I couldn't wait to get back home, I was hungry and craved a slice of hot, thin crust, cheese heaven and Sy's did not disappoint. It's a small place with stool seating for maybe ten and definitely has that 'on-campus' pizza joint feel. Event and Concert bills posted all over. 2 doors down from a 'Head shop' this place has all the trappings to throw you back to college days when you were grabbing a couple slices and running back to cram for exams. I can't give it 5 stars only because I have had better.... 3000 miles away! This is about as good as it gets out here in the PacNorWest. I'd recommend this pizza to the most critical of back-Easters -transplanted or just visiting -It really hits the spot. It's damn good Za!! read more

Sy's is one of my favorite pizza places in the area, the location is great and they serve single slices. Pegasus down the road only sells whole pizzas, so that's a deal breaker for me. I'd give them five stars, but they don't have Tabasco, which is a real shame. Apparently they used to, but people would steal it. But still, they should provide it at the same rate as general use , then it wouldn't be an added expense if it gets stolen, just an occasional inconvenience. read more

I hafta give them four stars even though it's not the world's best za, that honor is reserved for Track Town Pizza. But man, just great greasy, oily, dripping thin crust slices served up piping hot from the oven with a dose of garlic...mmmm...sooooooo good on a rainy Eugene evening. Not a bad place for a second or third date, too! read more

It would be hard to say there is a better pie in the city of Eugene. The essence of Sy's is the essence of good pizza and good food in general. Do something simple really well. If you like pizza you will like Sy's pizza. If you're looking for the hole in the wall New York pizza experience in Eugene, this is the place. Pizza by the slice or whole pie. Thin crust is what keeps them in business but the Sicilian which is a thicker pan-style version is worth a try as well. Their garlic knots for a quarter a piece is a good thing to do with any change you have left over. It's all about the food at Sy's so don't expect five star service or atmosphere. That's not what this place is about. But if you want arguably the best slice of pie in town, head down to Sy's. And thumb through the Eugene Weekly to find their buy 2 slices get a free drink coupon and save yourself a couple bucks in the process. Well worth the trip again and again. I may be biased in opinion this being the first place I experienced good pizza on the west coast after coming out from Chicago over 15 years ago. When my family first visited me in Eugene, they wanted to know where we could get a good pie. I ordered two Sy's whole pies and had them cut it into squares as they do back home. They were surprised at how much it resembled the thin crust they are used to and declared it "not bad". That is like playing Michael Jordan one on one and being told your game is "not bad" for any of you who may need a translation in this regard. The only knock I have on Sy's is that I feel they lack consistency from place to place. This review is based on my experience at the campus location on Alder St. The new location on River Rd. is the slightest bit different and not as good as the Alder St. location in my opinion. My advice is to visit the Alder St. location for one of the finest pies in these parts. And if you like it, you can even buy a T-shirt to show off your taste for the finer things in life........Ok, enough said, I'm going down for a slice right now...... read more
