The Scene – Patsy's has been open since 1932, and its coal-fired pizza oven was among New York's first. But the East Harlem pizzeria now feels woefully neglected, and eating in the decor-less dining room can be a depressing experience. Fortunately, Patsy's pizza is one of the few great pies available by the slice, so quick takeout is an option. – – The Food – Patsy's crust is more in the light and crunchy than dark and sooty vein. The tomato sauce is fresh and vibrant and the toppings are top-notch. Mozzarella is reasonably fresh and distributed across the surface of…

Pizza the Old Fashion Way

by rkrueger1

You know that feeling when you walk into history and you get it everytime you visit the original Patsy's on 116th and 1st Ave. The smells, Fank Sinatra playing on the stereo, and the old world charm that has been replaced by fast food pizza.

This is an old world pizzaria like I remember from a kid. And, with pizzas starting at $11.00, it's no wonder the place continues to pack them in.

  • Pros: Great, thin-crust pizza. Great pastas. Good salads.
  • Cons: You have to travel up to E. Harlem to get there.
