"I only rarely visit NYC, but I’ll be coming back here the next time I visit. I got the “Fra Diavolo” slice. That was the nickname of Michele Pezza, “a guerrilla leader who resisted the French occupation of Naples” in 1798-99, according to his Wikipedia bio. The name literally means “Brother Devil.” The sauce named after him is a little bit spicy. It is often served on pasta. The slice was not cheap — about $8 with tax — but one slice fills you up. The slice is heavy, but the bottom of the crust is strong and crispy, giving a little crunch to each bite. Above the crisp bottom, the crust is thick and fluffy. Next there’s a layer of melted mozzarella. On top of that is the spicy Fra Diavolo sauce, and then a loose pile of two styles of pepperoni: some thin and curly, some thick and flat. It’s served with a strong piece of wax paper between the slice and the plate. The wax paper is perfect for picking up and eating what would otherwise be a very messy slice of pizza. I usually think the first bite of a slice of pizza is the best. With this slice, it felt like it got better as it went along — especially because you don’t even notice the slight spiciness until you’re halfway through the slice."

"Got a Hot Honey and a Fig. Guy heating them up wasn’t paying attention and blasted the fig at the last moment with the hot honey (instead of the hot honey pizza like he should), washing off the fig spread and basil. Pizzas were still good and edible, but that’s some lame. Also, I’ve had better slices elsewhere and for cheaper. Place was super busy and did heat up those slices quickly albeit with absolutely no smiling…"

"NY Pizza Suprema is one of those rare places that doesn’t just serve food — it serves memories. I still remember the first time I walked in, carried by the warm smell of fresh dough and melted cheese drifting out onto the street. It felt like stepping into a pocket of New York where time slows down just long enough for you to breathe. I was tired that day — the kind of tired that settles deep in your bones after hours of rushing through the city. But the moment I stepped inside, something softened. The staff greeted me with that unmistakable New York mix of warmth and confidence, like they already knew I was about to have a great slice. When I took my first bite, everything else faded away. The crust — perfectly crisp; the cheese — rich and comforting; the sauce — bright, warm, almost familiar. It tasted like care, like tradition, like someone put a little heart into it. Sitting there with my slice, I felt a small moment of peace in a city that never stops moving. NY Pizza Suprema isn’t just a pizzeria — it’s a place where you feel grounded, welcomed, and reminded of how simple joys can turn a day around. I’m genuinely grateful for every visit — for the flavor, the kindness, the feeling of home tucked inside a perfect New York slice."

"Superb family owned pizza restaurant with excellent food at great prices. Handbags a slice and enjoy, its amazing. Lots of different options and lots of classics. A must do NY restaurant and a great place to grab a slice and a break. Very close to madisson square garden if you are visiting there."

"Amazing slice of pizza — truly a quintessential New York experience. The moment you walk in, you’re greeted by a lineup of pies like they’re auditioning for your stomach, and yes, you can even go wild and add extra cheese. The slice itself? Chef’s kiss. Crispy, balanced, and just the right ratio of everything. Was it the best pizza I’ve had in my entire life? Honestly, no — Canadian pizza still has my heart (they flavor the crust at my go-to spot, and that’s hard to beat). But this? This is officially the best slice I’ve had in the U.S."
