Ordered the medium size cheese pizza cut for 8 slices for take-out and was freshly made in 15 minutes as promised. Friendy staff all around and had nice conversation while I waited. Offered paper plates and knapkins which was taped to the box. Pizza was great and the ambiance was nice with many photos and memorabilia on the wall decor. Nice experience...will return here. read more

Where do I start... The inconsistency in the pizza, or the fact that the chicken roll is the only thing consistent? I want to love this place. But it seems like every time that isn't sit down... the pizza recipe changes. Service is typically good, and a great place to sit down. read more

$4 regular cheese slice $22 small pie / $25 large pie $4 for 6 garlic knots $6.50 specialty slices like bacon ranch (for reference, 2020 was $4.75, 2019 was $3.75) $5 regular slice & small fountain soda These are some of the prices in 2026 for reference. ViPizza is a solid pizza joint in Bayside. It's a nice neighborhood joint that also has Italian ice! I dont think they have lunch specials, but its close to the LIRR so I like the proximity. I would come back! Not sure if i will if it goes to $5 a regular slice read more

Tried two pies that we haven't tried. It was good and adding the sausage to the Sicilian well done made a difference. The staff there is always so nice with a smile. read more

VIPizza - Pizza Near Me - Bayside, New York

It looks like an old school pizza parlor. It had a neighborhood feel inside, nothing fancy just old school sliced pizza. We ordered a square pie with pepperoni, they're special for the day. They were very friendly. We waited about 15 minutes since we were getting a whole fresh pie. They brought it out and gave us forks. The crust is not as crispy as I would like but there was lots of cheese and pepperoni. It was a very classic NY grease pizza. read more

VIPizza - Pizza Near Me - Bayside, New York

Fantastic upside down Sicilian! I'm a sucker for a great Sicilian slice and they make a great one here. Go for the upside down which is mozzarella cheese underneath with sauce on top. The slices are a little hefty and layered with a slightly sweet sauce. The price per slice is a little hefty as well so grab some friend and split a whole pie for an economical balance. Save the leftovers for another day. The ambiance is old school pizza parlor which isn't much. The wait can be a little long for whole pies so order ahead to manage your wait. Extra pluses for their allegiance to the Mets on the side of the building! LGM for next year! read more

VIPizza - Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Bayside, New York

VIPizza is an amazing local pizza joint on Bell Blvd. Their slices are always fresh and crispy on the bottom, just how I like it. I'm a big fan of their margarita slice but I'm also pretty pleased with their plain cheese slice as well. On my last visit, we tried their hot honey pepperoni and buffalo chicken slices, which were also very good. VIPizza is definitely my go-to pizza spot whenever I have my cravings and I would highly recommend it. read more

As promised, I came back for the Sicilian and upside down slices. Unfortunately, it was not worth the trip back. Luckily, I only came here because my friend needed to use the bathroom and so we killed two birds with one stone. God thing because, as I said, I would have been ticked off of I had made a trip just for these slices. The cheese and sauce on the Sicilian strangely reminded me of Ellio's frozen pizza, which was nostalgic but not what I expect from highly rated pizza. The look of the upside down slice reminded me of Spumoni Gardens in Brooklyn but that is where all similarities end. The sauce at SG is sweeter than most whereas this slice, despite the onions (I think) is pretty generic. At least their bathroom was fully functional, which is why I have 3 stars. read more

This place used to be the best but now they are the worst. They used to actually put a good amount of cheese on the sicilians but now they really cheap out. Try Lucia's instead.it's right down the block on Northern read more

Super underrated pizza spot in northern queens. A quintessential NYC slice in my opinion! Definitely go for just the plain slice, it's almost perfect I don't know what they could do to improve it to be honest. Service is quick and easy and gives a very old school pizza join vibe! read more

VIPizza - Cheese slice - Pizza Near Me - Bayside, New York

Nice place and nice people. Easy to order and the slices were on point. Place has been around for years

The pizza here is delicious.The sauce is tasty and the cheese on the pizza is awesome as well.

Being Sicilian and a Foodie you cannot find a better slice of Sicilian or upside down pizza anywhere in Queens ! Staff and owner managers are tops ! I challenge anyone to say I'm wrong you're probably not Sicilian or even Italian ! Lol read more

A nice nostalgia feel about the Pizzeria I was in this evening. I have tasted a lot of Sicilian pizza but nothing like this. Call them "RAGU" because it is definitely in the sauce and it was delicious. Nice amount of seating on a cold night. The pizza hit the spot, and it was darn good. His and hers bathroom on the premises. Parking is FREE after 7pm. So feed the meters if you get there earlier. After Pizza I then went to Martha's Bakery for cake and coffee near the Long Island Railroad. I actually wrote a review on that spot. The Review Guru* Long Island NY read more

Came in to try some slices because VIPizza is a Queens institution. The regular slice was disappointing - really nothing special at all. Don't get me wrong - not bad pizza - just nothing worth raving about. The Sicilian slice, though, that they're known for, was excellent. Great crust, wonderful sauce to cheese ratio, and one of the better Sicilians I've had. The upside down just wasn't to my taste, but my friend really enjoyed it. The garlic knots had hands down the best sauce I've ever had on a knot - but the knots themselves were stale which took away from the experience and how top tier they could have been. All in all, a good pizza place - but still to some version of the Sicilian. read more

I first heard about this place through one bite and was excited to try it. The texture was great; crispy, no flop. Unfortunately, it barely had flavor. I had to add garlic powder to give it taste. I wasn't sure if the lack of flavor was due to the tomato sauce or the cheese or both. I might come back if I was in the area since I like the crisp and the crust. read more

VIPizza - Two slice and a spicy beef patty - Pizza Near Me - Bayside, New York

VIPizza is a typical New York pizza parlor. I went in for lunch today and although busy, the man behind the counter gave us great service; fast and courteous. The pizza was delicious, as were the garlic knots. Extra points for how he treated the customers waiting to order, some that were making special requests, others that were so deep into their phones that they weren't answering his questions. He was hussling and doing a great job all the meanwhile. Thanks... I'll be back! read more

My go to in Bayside. Regular pie over everything! Such a staple in Bayside - has been around for years. Don't forget the red pepper flakes for added goodness! read more

This review is based off of a quick, random stop for some pizza. My friend and I happened to park next to VIPizza as we waited to go out with more friends. Wanting to grab a quick bite, we decided to get a slice each. We both ordered the margherita slice and only needed to wait a few minutes for them to heat it up. This place was packed when I came in, so I was glad that we got takeout. With no expectations at all, I was shocked at how incredible the pizza was, especially the crust. The crust was thin and crispy with the perfect amount of chew. I was so impressed and saddened that I didn't get another slice. Now that this place is on my radar, I can't wait to go back and try more slices! read more

VIPizza - I liked the pepperoni pizza - Pizza Near Me - Bayside, New York

I want to say that this place has by far the best Margarita slice in Queens. It even tops some of the well known pizzerias in Manhattan / Brooklyn. It is thin crust and they are very generous with their fresh mozzarella. Their sauce is also just right, not too tart and not too sweet. Whenever I'm craving pizza, I'll come here for their margarita and sometimes a grandma slice as well. I also love the fact that VIPizza has been opened for many years and has so much history behind it as well. Any local would know where to go for the best pizza in Bayside. Not to mention that the price is also very fair. read more

Good local pizza with nice crust with good sauce to cheese ratio. Sausage roll was delish with an abundance of sausage, matter of fact too much and I had to remove some. Little more peppers and onions would balance it out better. Would have given an additional star, however service behind the counter is unorganized and I had to repeat my order 3 times leading to a 15 minute wait to just to heat 3 slices and a sausage roll. Definitely a budget place to eat in Bayside area especially on Bell Blvd but not a pizzeria I'd go out of my way for. read more

Long live the king. Best pizza in Bayside. altho we are blessed with a few Really great pizzerias around here. VIP is old school. It's basic in a sense as it's not a luxurious dining room. But the pizza to me is not basic at all. Sure they have traditional cheese pizza. And it's amazing. But their veggie / vegetarian pizzas are super amazing as well. Just walk on in and eyeball the culinary and carb and cheese based wonders that are presented to you at the counter. Don't be afraid to ask a question if you are seeing a type of pizza that is new to you. Or if you want to understand all the toppings a slice has or whatever. Staff has always been very helpful. Just great pizza. Felt like it needed to be said. read more

I really like their grandma and Sicilian pizza! Chicken and tomato is pretty decent too

Came here to try this pizzeria out after seeing such good reviews, got the grandma slice with basil and the spicy chicken which I'm believing is their take on Buffalo chicken. Got both of my slices well done and crispy. They were both very good, paid $9 for 2 slices. They do have a minimum of $10 spent for card. I didn't get bleu cheese with their spicy chicken and I think that was a mistake of mine which is a personal preference. I'm a bleu cheese guy with my Buffalo chickens but overall it still had great taste. I'll try it next time with the bleu cheese as well, I also do want to try their upside down slice. read more

Place still has the best pizza in bayside. Every time I'm in town I can't avoid the spot and the pizza is still on the money

AMAZING The food was absolutely out of this world. The service made me feel like I was family. The restaurant had a home like feeling to it. Great Ambiance! read more

My friends said this spot was their go-to, and I can see why. They make a regular Margarita pizza seem like heaven. Truly! I could have eaten five pieces of the large pizza and not gotten bored. Though I would have been stuffed. You gotta call it in and pick it up, but it is worth it. I don't usually go for pizza, but this spot would make it on my short list. read more

Ordered a Sicilian pizza with pepperoni and couldn't have enjoyed it more The crust was thick and crunchy. There was an amazing amount of cheese on the pie which is great since a lot of pizza parlors slap way too much sauce on the pie. Of course my first piece was a corner ! Great old school pizza - delish ! read more

VIPizza - Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Bayside, New York

I love this place. I buy the same cheese-less vegetarian (vegan) pie every time I'm in the area visiting my parents. Jose knows my order by now (broccoli, spinach, red peppers, mushrooms, and olives...no onions and no cheese!) and is always happy to make it. As you can see in the attached photo, the vegetables are piled high. This particular pizza is made to order--it's not on the menu. So feel free to ask for exactly what you want, and they'll gladly accommodate. Also evident in the photo is the fact that VIPizza is incredibly generous with toppings for a very reasonable price. For pizza purists, I am sure this doesn't resonate as being a 'real pizza,' so in that case, just think of it as a flatbread with more vegetables per slice that the average person probably eats per week! read more

Smbo says this place is fantastic. One of few actual old school slice shops left in NYC. Not the fake corporate spots pretending to be old school but an actual real neighborhood pizzeria with fantastic product. Add 10 minutes to when they tell you the pie will be ready. Solid cheese pie and some of the best grandma and Sicilian for miles read more

Cheese Slice - Floppy, lacks undercarriage. - Hella cheese, too much imo. - Tasty sauce, but overpowered by cheese. - Messy cuz the floppy undercarriage can't hold up the heavy cheese. Slice falls apart eventually. Staff works hard, tip well! read more
