Another ex-NYC customer here. Pizza chef is the only real pizza in the greater Rochester area. If you disagree with that statement then you are wrong. Great pizza, great friendly people! read more

Ordered takeout pizza. Good toppings choices. For some reason the sauce has no taste.

We were recently dog sitting nearby Pizza Chef's Perinton location, and were recommended to go here for pizza and subs. Specifically, we were told to either get their turkey sub, made with fresh-roasted-in-house turkey and their delicious bread, OR the taco pizza. We couldn't decide so we got both, figuring we could always eat left overs. The time of our order was peak lunch time rush, and it took about 30 min to get our food. We saw them making the pizza and subs fresh, and we also observed a lot of other diners, some regulars, enjoying their food and the conversation with the staff. Everyone was friendly and happy. We took our order back to where we were staying and dug into the pizza. It was a little salty for my personal taste buds, but not my husband's - he really loved the flavors. I was impressed with the crust - which is always a mark of a good pizza in my book. I would get this again, but would ask for something like a side of ranch or blue cheese to help cut the saltiness. Later that same day we ate the subs. The turkey sub was easily - seriously - the BEST turkey sub I had had in a very long time. Maybe ever. The fresh-roasted turkey, the fresh fillings - lettuce, tomato, cheese, onion, and the Italian dressing - all were the perfect flavor profiles and amounts. The whole sammy was well balanced, so no one ingredient dominated. We had ordered a large, again, with left overs in mind, and cut it into pieces. I added mayo, and just thought it was moist, really tasty, and total comfort food. I would drive across the city to get that sub again. Pictured here is the pizza; by the time we at the subs I forgot to take more pics! Couple other notes: Pizza Chef is in a plaza where there is plenty of parking. They sell soda in a case as well as ice cream, and have quite a large menu that includes wraps, sandwiches and subs (hot and cold), lots of different signature pizzas plus a breakfast pizza and options to build-your-own, plus a variety of fried sides like fries, onion rings, mozzarella sticks, jalapeno poppers, etc. They also have wings and salads. Definitely check them out if you haven't already. And get that turkey sub. You won't regret it! read more

I love thin crust pizza and this place doesn't disappoint. We tried the bbq chicken and the white spinach pizza and both were amazing and not too greasy! If I lived in Fairport, I would be a regular customer. read more

Really good pizza spot. It is thin like New York style, and probably the only place around that has pies under $20 still. Customer service is also excellent. read more

Ordered Saturday night takeout from The Pizza Chef. 30 minute wait for our pizza. Not bad for a Saturday. Ordered wings and a large pizza. Love that you get a dozen wings (noticed not many places do a dozen now) The wings came with a sizable side of blue cheese. They were extra crispy and the buffalo medium was pleasantly spicy. Loved the pizza. Nice and thin. Great flavor. Pleased with our dinner choice! read more

Very good pizza at a very reasonable price. Every pie I've had so far has been well cooked with plenty of toppings.

Pizza Chef is our favorite!! We are NYers from NYC. We thought we'd never have decent pizza again. We tried a lot of pizza and Pizza Chef is the closest to NY pizza you can get! We LOVE it!! We can have our pizza Fridays again!! read more

Went and ordered a small pizza with a few items. First the small isn't small. You'll get a second meal out of it so the prices are pretty good. Friendly staff. The crust was a bit mushy. It was undercooked a little. Cheese and ingredients were good. I also tried a slice of Mediterranean. Too much cheese for me They had a good choice of soda. No beer or wine The tables were nice Not a lot of seating but most people coming in seemed to be getting take out read more

The pizza is the best around I absolutely love it I've tried all the other places and this is my favorite. Located in Fairport on Whitney road the people that work there are great the owner is almost always there. Friendly people good prices great pizza read more

I really like their pizza, especially with the garlic sauce. I love broccoli on my pizza and I feel like they put the perfect amount and size of pieces. I'm not as big of a fan of their sheet pizza because the dough is usually really chewy for some reason. I would still eat it though. read more

My favorite pizza in the Fairport area. I've been through the majority of them. I just like that there isn't too much crust! Find them when they sponsored my kids little league team. I make sure to order 1-3 times a month. read more

We have gotten subs, pizza and wings over the past few weeks. Everything was delicious!

Great place for a great bite. I had a dozen wings split with two sauces (Buffalo Parm and Hot). They were spicy but not overwhelming. Great flavor and a good fry. Exactly what you would expect out of a good buffalo wing. As I was eating my wings someone came by and picked up a pepperoni pizza and they opened up the box to eat a slice right there. I did not try the pizza but from what I saw it looked like a winner. I'll be back here when I'm in the area to try the pizza!! Service was friendly and fast. read more

Best dough ever! Love their pizza dough takes me back to Brooklyn times and amazing marinara sauce. I would say one of the best in Rochester for sure read more

Stopped in from out town for some NY style pizza and some upstate wings. The slice of sausage and pepperoni was amazing with a thin crispy crust. I ordered hot wings but the team recommended Buffalo garlic, Wow!! Am I glad they did. Perfect NY lunch, now I'm ready for a nap read more

Got pizza last night for dinner. Not bad at all. The crust was thin and cooked well. No floppy slice like some pieces can get. It was a tad greasy but their was also a lot of pepperoni. read more

We tried The Pizza Chef for the first time Friday night; the pizza was delicious and the chicken wings were phenomenal-great blue cheese as well and the prices were surprisingly good! Lastly, the driver was courteous and a really nice guy! read more

Not typically a fan of "NY Style" pizzas, but this place made a pretty amazing one this evening! They didn't have cup and char pepperonis - otherwise I'd probably be handing out 5 stars. Got a large cheese pizza, and whatever cheese blend they used, was absolutely delicious! Had just the right amount of sauce, and it wasn't too sweet or too sour like some other joints. The crust was above average as well, though nothing mind-blowing. Prices were pretty standard for what you'll usually see around Rochester. I'd def order from here again if I'm ever in the Fairport area again. read more

Best pizza great staff just would like them to make deep dish or pan pizza. The subs are also amazing

Everyone has a favorite slice of pizza and this is mine (in the greater Rochester, NY area at least). I like Joe's Brooklyn and Pontillo's in the Basin but given the choice The Pizza Chef is my go to. Thin crust with "not too much" cheese. They are closed on Mondays and have specials on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. There are usually four to six different pies available by the slice. Great Buffalo Chicken pizza on Tuesdays, Taco Pizza on Wednesday, and BBQ Chicken on Thursdays. A sausage and pepperoni seems to be a standard and it's great. The shop is family owned and run and they are always friendly as well as generous to the community. Their wings are also very good. The location is on the side of a small plaza on Whitney - you can miss it if you're not looking for it. Two good size slices and a 20oz soda is under $10. read more

First time in probably 30 years to order pizza from TK's. We really enjoyed the sauce, so tasty! Cheese and pepperoni was plentiful and on point. We were a bit disappointed in the crust, very crunch on the rim but the center was soggy. We will try again to see if the crust changes read more

Lackluster. Came highly recommended which made me highly disappointed. Crust was burned on edges and very tough. Not crispy and easy to bite through, or soft and doughy. Just tough, like a workout for your jaw. The cheese was not fully melted either and we had to microwave the slices before eating. Also got a calzone which was loaded with cheese, but had noooo seasonings. You can't just roll up ricotta and mozzarella cheese without jazzing it up a little! Even some pepper or pizza seasoning would've gone a long way. read more

Good breakfast pizza and friendly service. Their regular slices are great too. Would recommend.

This is usually my go-to pizza place but recently the last few orders I've had have come soggy (for delivery). The pizza has been soggy. The fries have been soggy. The onion rings have been soggy. Sadly heating them up in the oven doesn't work either. I'm disappointed lately. I think it's fine if you pick it up but it's like for delivery, they put it in the bag super hot so a ton of moisture collects on the food (so it's wet and well... soggy). read more

Great pizza but even better service. My delivery boy Luke was fast, polite, and very handsome.

I had someone at my friends house order a pizza and went home across the street. Management called and I updated them and told them where to send the pizza and get payment and the person was dropping f bombs and swearing at me. read more

Really love their food and service. Went there multiple times and I love it every time. Everyone there is really nice and the vibe is chill.

I walked in unexpectedly seeing some cold, old pizzas. I don't know if they re-heat them or not. It looks yum.

Excellent pizza, last few times just a wee bit on the charred side but still an excellent thin crust pizza.

Good food and pizza, personally don't plan to order for delivery again but would still go in to get pick up

I know pizza and I think it's the best tasting pizza In Rochester. Reminds me of Francesco's where I grew up . They use the right ingredients at Pizza Chef . read more

Very good pizza and wings. Pizza is thin NY style, but still soft dough with great ingredients. There are plenty of options for toppings, but honestly, just cheese is the way to go. Be careful not to eat the whole pizza yourself read more
