Escape From New York Pizza

About this business
Experience pizza bliss in a slice of hand-tossed, fresh baked, cheesy New York-style pizza pie. Get a pizza to go, if you cannot stop at a slice or two. This hole-in-the-wall pizzeria, a longtime Northwest Portland landmark, lends a neighborly feel to the art of pizza inhaling. Lucky patrons will find an open table outside on the sidewalk. Beverages such as beer, soda and sparkling water are available. Peruse the eclectic decor or people watch while munching on slice number two or three.

Escape to a 1983 stereotype of NYC. I moved here from the east coast 15 years ago and I have conflicting views of this place. Lets start with the food. Portland has many wonderful pizza places, but a lot of them are expensive and the pizza is just too foofy. When it comes to finding a plain slice of unmolested thin crust pizza, there are not many options. Escape from NY is good pizza. The prices are reasonable, and good thin crust pizza is what this part of town needs. But its the service that gives me pause. Fifteen years a... read more
Escape from NY Pizza. – I have been going to Escape from New York Pizza since I was 12 years old. I LOVE THEIR PIZZA!! I am 42 now, so that's a lot of years. I stopped going to Escape from NY Pizza because about a year ago, the big, cool, bearded guy who they made a calendar about with all of his rude comments, attacked me for taking a photo of one of their silly little pieces of paper. You know the ones if you have been in there. I moved it about 3 inches so I could get a photo of it, because there was glare on it, and he s... read more
My favoritest favorite ever :) total NYC pizza ? (where my fam is from) anyone with a bad review on here SURELY NEVER ACTUALLY SET FOOT IN THIS PLACE - my family loves this place and for as often as we go we have seen slow times and busy times and never ever been given issue whether we tipped or not - and whether it was busy or not these guys were always great - never been rude ever. I agree with one review I read that they sound like competition - this place has always been fabulous! :) glad the jackasses 'won't be back' as... read more
I've been going to Escape From New York since I was a kid. Just moved to Portland (just south of Burnside around 23rd) and now frequent the place, since it's right down the street from me. There seem to be a series of really incredibly bad reviews on here. And they all seem pretty similar. Way too long (and all similar length), similar language, similar unrealistic horror-stories. And, they SOMEHOW seem to all have been written within two weeks of each other over a period of a couple months. HMMMM.... I can't help but think ... read more
I love this place. The service is good and it is a good atmosphere.
Say what you will, it's still the best thin, greasy, fold-in-half slice you're going to find in this town. They really ought to be recycling or composting all those plates by now though.
I've been going to Escape since I was 12 and now I am taking my kids there. It's a Friday night family tradition...we love it!
What happened to good ol' Escape from NY Pizza? – As a Portland native, when it came time to decide where to go for my birthday dinner the other day, of all the restaurants in Portland I chose Escape from NY Pizza. I went with the memory of delicious pizza and chill pizza dudes chattin' it up and enjoying life. Instead, much to my sadness and surprise, I was met with some of the worst customer service I have ever received at any restaurant anywhere. I asked if I could choose my slice, and the counter guy said no because it w... read more
