Superb!! – I have eaten at La Pizza Fresca serveral times and have never been disppointed. I've arranged a group dinner, the party of 12, we had such a great time and were treated very well. the service was really great. We tried several different kinds of wine (their wine list is amazing) our wine knowledgeable waiter poured wine equally (12 people!!) and very professtionally. and he changed and set our wine glasses for each wine very promptly and attentively, always checked if we need something and we are having a good tim... read more
Good Food, BAD service – great wine list (italian), good food, service was INITIALLY fine. After the main course came, we didn't see our waiter for at least 40 MINUTES! (food was delivered by a busboy, not waiter) We got no cheese offered for the pasta, our water and wine glasses remained EMPTY our entire meal, when we would have easily spent another $20 on wine. We could not catch our waiter's eye, and he ignored us. This was on a Tuesday night. The table next to us asked if he "crushed the grapes" himself when their long o... read more
kalbi and nebbiolo do work together. i know we're talking about italian here... but such remark depicts the worldly somelier/owner/janitor of LPF, who is a true gourmand savvy not only in wine but in the basics of good eat. LPF's simply delicious and fantasically authentic neopolitan style pizza is excellente...my usual 1st course that can easily turn into the 2nd and 3rd. word of advice, save room for pasta dishes and never leave until you've had the tiramisu.
Legitimate Italian – I've grown up on Italian foods and wines and this place is the best. The pasta dishes are as close to what my Italian mother cooks and the pizza, for those of you who enjoy Neapolitan pizza, is very good. Don't be fooled by big name Italian restaurants in the area, often they try too hard and stray from the culinary tradition. By keeping everything simple and making sure all the ingredients are fresh (and, in most cases, imported directly from Italy), they remain much truer to the food I've had while in ... read more
Ignored – I had a party of 9 reservation and was very disappointed at the service. The atmosphere was nice but we were completely ignored. There was a different of 8 at a table across from us who recieved the waiters utmost attention. From pouring thier wine for the guests to promptly taking thier orders. I don't know what the issue was but it annoyed my guests as well. The pizza was not as good as I had expected. Now, I'm aware it's not easy to please a large party but if we weren't even given the opportunity. Never agian. ... read more
lovely night at la pizza fresca! – Went there with my bf and another couple on a Friday night. When we arrived, it was still fairly empty, but by the time it neared 8:00pm, the restaurant was packed with ppl waiting at the bar for a table. The pizza portion is really good; the pizza was very tasty, not your typical crunchy thin crust pizza. But as other reviewers had stated, the crust is chewier with a slight hint of charred dough on the bottom. I had the quattro stagioni but I think I will try the margherita next time. For ... read more
Great everything! – The food is excellent. Great service, servers are all very friendly. Extensive wine list, good selections too. Wide variety of pastas. Didn't get tired of the pasta, like I usually do halfway through a pasta dish. You'll be pleased if you want authentic Italian food. The pizzas are a MUST TRY, hence the name. I've had the tuna steak also, and it was made just perfect. And for dessert, go for the sorbets, absolutely outstanding. Cozy and romantic- perfect for a date. An A+ for this rare find.
Wow! Best pizza so far this year! – I was in the mood for brick oven pizza as we had our first snow this year, so I decided to return to an old favorite, La Pizza Fresca. It had been a while since my last visit but when I arrived the waiter remembered me. Maybe I had forgotten how good their basic pizza margherita was because it was amazing this time -- the buffalo mozzarella was so rich and creamy it stood in delicious contrast to the sweet tomato sauce and chewy yet crisp crust. Truly a magnificent thing...it is just so di... read more
Best pizza west of the Atlantic Ocean... – For those of you who have been to Naples and who appreciate true Neapolitan pizza--you'll be pleasantly surprised by La Pizza Fresca. Its margherita is clearly the best in New York. Don't be fooled by cheap imitations elsewhere. This pizza is the real thing. Great wine, an elegant atmosphere, and an authentic slice of Naples make for a wonderful dining experience.
