Great food and great service! Sit upstairs if you can for a great view.
Linda BoukerchaDecember 22, 2016
Pizza! Any kind, get there early to avoid long wait time.
Greg WilcoxSeptember 17, 2013
Service was lacking on our visit, seemed like it was more of a hangout spot for employees than a restaurant... But the pizza more than made up for it. Delicious. Sauce was rich and flavorful
Andrea Bollman LeJeuneJune 16, 2012
Asked an officer for a good pizza place. He recommended John's. Walked in n everyone ignored us. Finally got seated n our waiter was stoic/unfriendly. Hoping the food makes up for the list service.
Matt MillerMarch 8, 2015
The pizza of course. Also, the wait is almost never as long as they say and even if it were it would be worth it.
Andrew WorobMarch 9, 2013
Most pizza in NYC is pretty much the same, but I was impressed by John's. Every ingredient was fresh and it made for an outstanding pizza.
Esma CoffeyMarch 27, 2015
Pizza flavours are beautiful , pizza base is yummy ❤️
Uncle JesseMarch 8, 2015
Try the Traditional Pizza - Some of the best pizza I've had. I guess NYC pizza isn't overrated. (via @Foodspotting)
Stephanie GareriSeptember 28, 2013
Yummy pizza! Crust was perfectly done. Fast & friendly service. The ceiling is amazing...look up :)
Joshua BatemanMay 27, 2015
Their pizza is to die for and the ambiance is amazing. Such cool history in the building.
Ben GOctober 8, 2012
Garlic rolls are incredible. Texture of a crisp cinnamon roll, but cheese and garlic. Ask for extra marinara sauce.
Stephanie CesearJuly 28, 2013
Get the pizza - and you can't be seated until your entire party has arrived. Don't go during peak hours it's packed.
Lesley CooperDecember 26, 2013
Crazy crowded during Xmas break. You might want to choose an alternate time to visit, outside if normal dinner hours.
Natasha BlairJanuary 14, 2011
Has it all - great service, amazing atmosphere (old church) and incredible food. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu but you're here for the 'za!
Steven DenisonOctober 6, 2015
A definite must when I arrive in NYC. Always fast fresh and great service!
Hugo GOctober 2, 2015
Sorry, not too god pizza. Crust is ok, but very thick. Prosciutto was far from what expected, thick and salty, (probably not really prosciutto) and the pizza had garlic even though I didn't order it.
EricaAugust 10, 2014
To me, definitely not in the running for the best pizza in NY, but it is good for the area.
Mike HoogendykDecember 4, 2013
Really is the greatest pizza in NYC IMHO. Handicapped restroom is near front of restaurant, not the ones in the back.
Jacob RosenbergAugust 29, 2016
Good pizza, pies only. Beautiful ceiling in an old restored building.
Eric SchwartzJune 26, 2015
Been here 10+ times
I love EVERYTHING about John's! The food, the history, the architecture 😄
Stephanie P.November 20, 2013
No happy hour here whatsoever. Awesome. Most pints are $6.25 - 8 bucks. That includes crap like Bud Light and Heineken.
SharonFebruary 1, 2019
Not particularly worth eating. I had to shake a ton of spices on top to make it palatable.
Tiffany PinkstonJune 21, 2015
The bruschetta pizza and tiramisu was delicious.
Emilie FuttermanFebruary 20, 2015
Delicious post theater pizza. Awesome building. Good for groups.
Shanelle R.May 2, 2012
This pizza place is HUGE inside. Perfect for large groups. Located right in the heart of the theater district.

Go to this branch of John's Pizza for great brick oven pies -- the meatball is a favorite of mine -- and the space: it's a former Baptist temple with a great mural. Read more
Magnus POctober 30, 2016
Pizzas are good, you select your on toppings 🍕😋
Mitchell BushJuly 18, 2013
Make sure you get a pitcher of Palm Belgium Beer !!!!!
Melinda ChristieJuly 29, 2012
The pizza bianca is the best white pizza I've had! Fantastic cheese and pepperoni pizza too!
SaraOctober 27, 2012
Great pizza, delicious wine, fantastic venue. But they don't sell pizza by the slice.
SamJoe CorreaOctober 8, 2011
The Sicilian wings are out of this world!!! Don't skimp and go for the full order. You won't regret it!!!
Kathryn PhillipsJuly 14, 2014
Excellent pizza, great atmosphere. Try the garlic rolls, they are amazing!
AllavouteveJanuary 12, 2014

Mollie GannonMarch 16, 2019
Outstanding! Love this place. Terrific thin crust pizza.
Osama NasrJanuary 2, 2015
Good authentic NY style Italian food! Good vibes too!
Rodrigo GarridoMarch 4, 2015
Before a Broadway show, grab a pizza at John's and enjoy one the best flavors in 44th st.
IrmaZandl ZandlSlantMarch 24, 2016
HUGE space. Food is good. Really good for big groups heading to the theatre.
Melody EwingSeptember 7, 2010
The pizzas are enormous. A small will yield 6 generously sized slices. If you're not in the mood for pizza, the eggplant parmesan is a tasty alternative.
Dennis KintzerApril 13, 2013
This place is BANGIN'! Great pizza...at a really great price! GOTTA try some 'za!
Trish WalshOctober 25, 2012
The moment you walk in the smell of pizza and watching the way the make it with the sauce on top.. Yummm..
Paco MercadoNovember 20, 2016
The whole bread, very good...the place could be restore and cleaned
Rachel AlbaneseJanuary 2, 2012
the "margarita" pizza is exactly the same as the regular cheese pizza except they add basil for an additional $6.00 !!
Lydia YNovember 2, 2018
great, authentic pizza in midtown. Friendly service too!
Desiree ShumovichJuly 4, 2013
This is the best pizza you will ever taste in your life so prepare yourself😍

Osman Nas.September 6, 2014
Both pizza and pasta were really good. The price/quality ratio is not disappointing
Tami PriceSeptember 15, 2013
The garlic rolls and the Pizza Bianca w/ spinach are amazing!
Diana SalamehJanuary 26, 2011
Actually the best pizza in NYC. Try the linguini with pesto sauce, and add chicken cutlet and sun dried tomatoes.
Jodi LaughlinJuly 13, 2014
Order the Bianca white pizza, add chicken - delicious!
Brian CriderMay 30, 2012
