Prince Street Pizza

The Spicy Spring that launched a thousand TikToks.

Nolita 10:00 AM – 3:00 AM

What to order

The Spicy Spring — a Sicilian square with curled, crispy pepperoni and spicy vodka sauce.

Menu Highlights

Heather tip

Saturday morning opening is the hack — go right at 10:00 AM to skip the midday line.

Why it’s on the list

The Morano family's Nolita shop is famous for its thick-crusted Soho Squares. The Spicy Spring is the slice that built the reputation — thick pepperoni cups holding little pools of spicy oil on a focaccia-like base.

History

The Morano family opened Prince Street Pizza on this corner in 2012, in a storefront that had housed a pizzeria for decades before.

The Spicy Spring went viral on TikTok around 2019–2020; cumulative #princestreetpizza views cleared 500M and the line spilled around the block daily.

Did You Know?

The iconic pepperoni 'cups' come from natural-casing Ezzo pepperoni — when you bake it, the casing curls and cups, holding little pools of oil.
