Luzzo's La Pizza Napoletana - New York

If you are planning to dinate at the new place on Avenue B on the basis of your memory of pizza at First Avenue, you will be very disappointed. It is as if all institutional knowledge of First Avenue Square lost in migration to Avenue B.

The food at this restaurant is incredible. It is without a doubt the most authentic Neapolitan pizza in New York City.

The staff was unfriendly and we didn't feel at ease. The pizza was too much and the atmosphere felt forced. We probably won't return.

So sad they moved out of the 1. Street was a restaurant. Now it's basically a takeaway with a few tables....

This is not the place that most of the pictures online show. They have no coal fired brick oven plus the pizza is awful in texture and taste. No reservations are needed for this place and I don't even think they would be honored even if you made them since it's a counter service type of place.
