    Great Pizza!! Grandma Squares are the ultimate and the buffalo chicken slices are awesome.They have other pizzerias in the area but Ben's beats them all....hands down!!

    Get the grandma pizza- crispy crust, chewy bread, more tomato sauce than typical slice, but still optimal amount of cheese

    Best staff ever! Cash only. They offered me a free slice when I didn't have any cash with me

    Great for a quick NY slice after a late night of drinking. Try the Buffalo slice.

    Quick and convenient for NYU students. Certainly not the best in the city, but edible. If you're not in a rush and have time to spare, walk up a few blocks to Famous Famiglia.

    Reliably good late-night Grandma and pepperoni & mushroom slices..even when you're sober. Lol

    Thought we were going to get ripped off, but it turned out to be pretty darn good pizza. Eat here while you're waiting to get into Comedy Cellar. The margherita is on point.

    Grandma slice is excellent. The sauce is a bit sweet and complements the cheese very nicely

    My favorite place for a bite after drinking. Buffalo and BBQ chicken slices rock.

    Don't know how this only has a 7.2. I'll admit I haven't tried much other than their pizza, but I've tried that about 500 times. You can really tell when it's been sitting out though.

    Well for cheap pizza it's crusty and flavoursome. The margarita! Eat it while hating yourself like Louis CK does.

    Don't know about the "world famous" claims but definitely better than average NYC by the slice pizza joint. Nothing to see here, so get it to go! (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

    Used to be my favorite. Now bread is too thick and pizzas have less flavor

    The Grandma's slice is a metropolitan treasure. Which is convenient, because anything else here is barely edible.

    Sub par. We’ve given this place tons of tries. For those who say they like it, we suggest you try Bleecker Street Pizza, Joe’s or even Pizza Box instead. For more pizza reviews, check out www.pizzasno

    Don't get their Hawaiian slice. The pineapples aren't nearly tangy enough nor is the bacon Canadian enough.
