Great Food for Vegans & Non-Vegans...that's it! – Pala has a whole vegan and non-vegan menu which makes it a great place for everyone. Their pizza is amazing! Hands down best vegan pie I have ever had. Their “Funghi & Salsiccia Pizza” is so tasty even non-vegan’s that dined with me loved it! Oh and they offer gluten free dough as well. Now, I can't say enough how great the pizza is. I must make a complaint…or two. They tend to have a weird obsession with seating people right next to each other, despite the fact that the rest... read more

The only pizza worth eating – There simply is no crust like the pizza crust at Palà's. None. I've had many pizzas over the years and this tops them all. As my 16 year old neighbor put it, after tasting a cold left over slice I had brought uptown with me, "it's ridiculous"...in his language this means "it's so good, it's just ridiculous...no words can describe it."

Wow!!! – I have been to Pala` Pizza and had a great experience. The food was great, I reluctantly tried the all wheat pasta with tomato sauce (I was with friends and they wanted to have pizza and something else) and it was amazing. The pizzas are soooo different from anything you could find around... I loved the crust which, again is not common in NY. I found them also easily digestible. But the dessert was what surprised me the most.... over all a great find and the ambience was very interesting mix. I loved it.

Now New Yorkers can wolf down spectacular pizzas as they would in Rome. – The Scene Though not particularly fancy--a display counter showcases premade pizzas and antipasti--the interior achieves homey chic with broad wooden tables and a display wall of wine. Service has a knowledgeable Italian accent. The Food It's imperative to save room for the pizza, so start light with a salad of greens, artichokes and generous shavings of parmigiana. But onto the pizza: Commendations go to both the crust--crisped on the bottom with many... read more

Such a shame the food is SO good but the manager is SO nasty – I was so excited to take my friend out to Pala for his 25th birthday after all of the wonderful things I heard about. The food certainly lived up to my expectations and the outdoor ambience of the LES, provided by the open street front. gave the place a great energy. The mixed drinks were well prepared and the gnocchi was out of this world. The pizza is what this place is really known for and between The Inferno and the Cheese with Truffle oil I was in heaven. Th... read more

YUM! – The pizza is amazing. It's different from any other pizza I've had. The crust is soft and melts in your mouth. The toppings are perfect. The wine list is good. And it turns out that on Mon-Thurs they have an AWESOME two person dinner deal: split a salad, 1 foot pizza, 1 dessert, and two glasses of wine for $35. Great casual date place.

Tasty Pizzes in a Relaxed, Lounge-like Setting – Four members of Meetup's New York City Thrifty Gourmets group and I field-tested Pala this past Tuesday night. FOOD: The fried calimari had a tasty, spicy coating, but the seafood itself was almost tough. The dollops of goat cheese on the zucchina pizze were fresh and flavorful, but the flavors of its other ingredients were not distinctive. The thin slices of soppresetta on the inferno pizze were fresh and peppery, perhaps too much so. Their tanginess overwhelmed the flavors o... read more

pizza pala – this is the best pizza ever.. it is so fantastik, that's when you start eating, you forget to stop, and the homemade pasta it is unreal, omg those italian antipastos forget about the huge selection of very good italian vino which is very affordable. and the staff always nice and friendly.. oh, don't forget to ask for the home made ice cream "by gigio"
