New York City Out to Lunch - NYC’s Best PizzaSal's & Carmine PizzaFantastic pizza without pretensions from an unassuming storefront parlor.
The SceneRaised in Italy, Sal and Carmine have been in the pizza business forever. They know their product is the best, and they don't have to gussy it up by smiling at the customers, letting it suffer through delivery, or any of that nonsense. There are a few tables in the back, where pizza connoisseurs can be seen huddled over their pies. The FoodThis is the pinnacle of the classic Neapolitan-American slice. It's worth the trip uptown, without question, just for the plain pizza. There's nothing out of the ordinary, just the most excellent, fresh ingredients, including superbly creamy full-fat mozzarella, sauce with a rare tomato-y tang, and crisp-but-chewy flavorful crust, all combined in an exceptional whole. The pizza is not over-cheesed like that of many competitors, nor is the sauce too sweet or raw-tasting. The standard array of toppings is available, but hardly necessary. No Delivery?Unlike most (if not closer to all) pizza parlors, Sal and Carmine's obstinately refuses to deliver. You can pick up a pie or a slice to go, but really it's best eaten fresh on the spot. 2671 Broadway |
