Pizza the way it should be! – This NYC native moved out of the neighborhood years ago and hadn't been to John's in a long time. I recently found my self dwon town and couldn't resist it! I'm so glad I went in. John's still has the best pizza in all of NYC. The best chared crisp crust, tangy sauce and some of the best sausage I have ever tasted. This place reminds me of Naples. Go and order a small pie with sausage and mushrooms, when hungry you could probably finiish the whole pie!!! John's Rocks!!!!

Thin-crust pizzas with a cult-like following in the Village. – No place is the subject of as much debate among the pizza-eating public as John's. The debate between camps is largely stylistic, centering on the distribution and amount of cheese on John's pies. Unlike other New York legends like Grimaldi's or Lombardi's, which sparingly distribute mozzarella in large squarish chunks, John's scatters pebble-sized pieces that form a single uninterrupted layer of cheese when cooked. Far less contentious are John's thin, charred c... read more

I don't get it? – This place probably has some of the worst pizza and service in the city. I just don't understand the hype. the last time I was there it seemed to draw a lot of tourists and a large bridge and tunnel crowd. Maybe that's how they stay in business. A lot of one-timmers from out of town. Lombardi's is better. Even Arturos. The best seems to be Nick's in Forest Hills. It's worth the trek.

Still the Best – I hadn't been to John's in a long time, and was happy to find it is still as good as ever. I have tried all the others in recent years, but John's still has them beat. Plain and simple pizza that tastes great.

Some Good Pizza – I recently stopped in and tried the much-hyped pizza. I was NOT disappointed. It was some good pizza. I must say the service was slow but it was crowded. If your in the City try it.

#1 – I've been to many pizza places and I can honestly say I've never had better pizza than John's. It's my all time favorite. I go there every chance I get.

Pizza is good... but NYC has better – Unlike others here, I didn't have to wait. After a trip to the Blind Tiger (a great beer bar on Hudson) what better than some good pizza? Been wanting to try John's for a while now. The pizza was very good... hot and delicious. The sauce was tangy and excellent in every way. There was a bit too much cheese for my taste. I do believe that the coal oven adds a very unique taste which I love. I had high hopes, but honestly Totonno's (the original Coney Island location) still takes the crown... read more

Yum! – We dined at John's on a trip in the spring to NYC. Wow! Our dining experience was great. The wait was pretty long, but it was well worth it. The pizza was THE BEST!

Just ok – The pizza here is decent, but nothing special. It beats Lombardi's, which some people seem to think is good just because of the fresh mozzarella, but Grimaldi's is better. The atmosphere is pretty good though and the service is friendly.
