Joe's Pizza

The platonic ideal of a NYC slice, downtown edition.

Financial District 10:00 AM – 3:00 AM

What to order

Plain cheese, folded in half, eaten standing up.

Menu Highlights

Heather tip

Line moves fast. Cash or card. No seating — fold it and eat it.

Why it’s on the list

The FiDi outpost of the Greenwich Village legend. Thin, foldable, slightly greasy, exactly balanced — if you had to teach a Martian what a New York slice is, you'd hand them one of these.

History

Founded 1975 by Pino 'Joe' Pozzuoli at Carmine & Bleecker in Greenwich Village — the original shop is still there and still runs the same recipe.

Expanded to Times Square, Williamsburg, and this Financial District location; each shop trains in the Carmine St. kitchen.

Did You Know?

Pino Pozzuoli emigrated from Naples; the house sauce recipe has not changed since opening.
