Joe's has been around forever and has always been a good place to get a slice. It's not up there with lombardi's, but It's a better than average slice with no wait.

  • Pros: You can buy a slice instead of a whole pie
  • Cons: sometimes slices are dry and lack enough cheese

was in the village and stopped at numero 28 and joes. Joes was a little bit better, just my opinion because I like a more traditional pie. the sauce was excellent, although numero 28's is a bit better. The cheese and crust spectacular, and only 2.50 a slice. and the slices are huge.

  • Pros: best pizzza in the city
  • Cons: none

I used to live upstairs and eat here at least a few times each week. Oscar, Sam, and the rest of the crew at Joe's are the best Pizza men in New York. Period. Yes... I miss Joe's on the corner too, but the pizza still tastes the same!

  • Pros: late night slices
  • Cons: lines

The place was a pigsty and the pizza was mediocre. For being so famous, this place is HIGHLY overrated. Will not be back!

Thin crust, great sauce, just the right amount of cheese. $2.50 a slice $20.00 a pie, cash only. Best pizza in the village.

  • Pros: pizza
  • Cons: none

Hmmm how do i explain Joe's... First i'll say its Good!! sometimes REALLY GOOD, and thats the thing, sometimes its better then others... Basically, i only ever seen plain, pepperoni, and fresh mozzarella .. those are your basic options... which isn't bad... sometimes the plain slice is amazing... sometimes its average... I'm just speaking honestly... Advice i'll tell you, Don't let them serve you a lukewarm/cold slice!!!! They will try!! When they are feeling themselves and think that they are turning out slices really fast, or are busy, they won't take the time out to heat up your slice... THEY AREN'T GOOD LUKEWARM... tell them put it in the oven or wait for the fresh pie to come out!! PLEASE!! I BEG YOU! Especially on a fresh mozzarella.. Next thing i'll say is, try some other slices other places... they beat most places, but not all the time... Still they make good slices...

  • Pros: pretty good slices of pizza
  • Cons: No seating, not many options, They will try to rush you, They will give you a lukewarm slice if you don't object

I wanted to try this place, called and placed an order and the price was so high, and the man on the phone literally cussed me out when I called to cancel my order. I will not be dining there ever again.

I've been to Ray's on Price Street, and while that is a great slice, Joe's takes the cake on the best slice. Thin Crust, great sause and the perfect amount of cheese. I love it!!

  • Pros: The Best slice of Pizza anywhere
  • Cons: No place to sit.
