Prince Street Pizza is one of the most popular pizza shops in New York City, made evident by persistent lines snaking around the block. Once inside, you might find yourself tempted by everything on display.
If it’s your first visit, order the shop’s signature slice, the Spicy Spring (Sicilian pizza with tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella, spicy pepperoni cups and pecorino romano cheese).
This one of the best Sicilian pizzas in New York City, but between you and me, Prince Street Pizza is kind of a hit-or-miss establishment. I’ve gone here a few times and there’s been a handful of “off” days. However, if you can get them on a good day, you won’t regret it. Those crispy pepperoni cups are hard to beat!
Type of pizza.Classic NYC slices and delicious Sicilian pies (opt for the Sicilian slice if you’re not hungry enough to try multiple slices).
In a city of a thousand pizza joints, these are the ones that actually earned the hype.
