nonsense. almost all the pizza in new york is good. yes there are special places that use better ingredients and are really exceptional but the basic slice of cheese sets the standard.
it's not fine dining, but local, cheap, dirty pizzerias are a new york classic for good reason.
Sure - the slice joints in NYC are better than most cities. Most cities don't even have anything that comes close to Two Boots.
But to say they are a similar experience is to do places like DiFara a disservice - Dom DeMarco makes a pie far and above anything Famous Ray's or Two Boots ever put out.
grimaldi's is an ok tourist spot where you have to wait for a 1/2 hr for a slick. BS!
Agreed. But it can be nice if combined with a stroll across the bridge. Also, stay away from Lombardi's - a real tourist trap. Even for authenticity's sake it is no longer worth the visit - they changed their pie a few years back so now it is a rather standard Neapolitan pie.
