I recommend Arturos in Manhattan on Houston(with Joe's still having the best by the slice in said borough, runner up being Pizza Suprema near Penn Station). Best in the outer boroughs is Catania near St. Barnabas Hospital in da Bronx, with Mike's on Morris Park being pretty good as well. In Brooklyn, I still love Gino's in Bay Ridge, with Elegante (in a now heavily Arab neighborhood) giving the best square slice. Rizzo's on Steinway is still good over in Queens, but stick to the squares.
DiFara's is OK, but Domenick has been wearing down due to popularity over on Avenue J. DAMN YOU Timeout NY!
Orange Julis,Robert Hall,Castro Convertibles,Roasted Chestnuts,$2.99 Steak and Radio City, that was the NY I loved.
Can’t overlook Canal Street, a teenage gadget freak’s heaven.
Almost all that was gone, when I lived there off and on in the middle 70’s.
How many stories in the Naked City, I forget?
We just got a Grimaldi’s branch in Dallas. What do you think of the original, and do you have any faith in an offshoot?
Kinda’ late to the thread, but I LOOOOVE Gino’s!
Best food in Bay Ridge.
I also like La Sorrentina and the meats at Faicco’s across the street, (owned by the same guy, I think.)
