One of the best finds! I ended up here by luck! I wanted to eat all the pizzas in the house. Excellent crust, perfect tomato sauce and right amount of cheese. The owner saw I was alone and gave me so many recommendations for the city. He was so lovely and friendly. I never leave reviews but I believe this place has the best pizza in the NYC! Make sure to check it out :)
A perfect NY slice. Sauce, cheese, and crust were all in a harmonious symphony of deliciousness. I have had many slices in my day, and this pizza really is perfect. Also, the staff is quite friendly. They charge $2.75 for a regular slice, which is worth it, in my opinion. The dining area is kind of lackluster, but this is still an incredible pizzeria
This is the genuine article. The counterman REALLY DOES speak Italian. Great sauce, great cheese, perfect crust. Cheap price. A piece of authentic and vanishing NYC that wont be around for much longer. No hipster grub here.
My first. Pizza is nice. The staff is very friendly. Great service.
Ignore uppity reviews below. Rosario's is a fine establishment. A utilitarian spot slinging tasty slices to NYers of all stripes. Clearly a holdout in much-changed neighborhood.
Food is great. Cheap and awesome pizza
Owner was very friendly and informative on things around town. My family and I are there twice while in New York. Pizza was delicious. They had deep dish and New York style slices. We would definitely go back!
Damn I love this place. Old school. Crispy crust. Excellent cheese sauce ratio. Yum!
Great New York pizza, just the way it was meant to be made. And reasonable prices. But the star of this joint is Sal! He is an absolute treat. You feel like you are part of the family. Sal will make up any slice you want on the spot and serve it hot (unlike some of Rosario's competitors).
The best pizza we ever had (also not in Italy, friendly staff, would definitely recommend the eggplant pizza. The crust is so crunchy, good amount of ingredients on the pizza. Decent price for a slice/entire pizza. You can often see the Italian owner making the dough behind the counter.
Every time I am in NYC, I try to stop here. This is Pizza at it's simplest, purest, NY style perfection. I have had decent, good or even great pizza all over the world. But if I dream about pizza, it's Rosario's Pizza in LES NYC.
Great pizza. Owner/manager seems a little strange. When ordering the cheese slice, he suddenly exclaimed “the original cheese slice” and kept muttering it. Quick in and out just to try the pizza and you’re good
This is simply the best pizza I have ever had. Whenever I get to NYC I find my way to the Lower East Side as soon as I can, and grab a slice.
I've had friends bring me a slice to go back here to L.A. & anyone who says this pizza is not 5 star is a little cray cray.
:)
Caveat: I'm just visiting NY on business, so I am by no means an expert on NY pizza. But OMG the pepperoni rolls at Rosario's really blew me away! Super friendly staff too. Was just what I needed at the end of a fun night. Will come back next time I'm in town!
Rosario's is a great spot to snag a classic New York slice-o-zah it has that nice thin crust vibing on some steamy cheesy love. The staff/servers are very friendly and more than willing to answer questions and provide recommendations. Thusly, I'd highly recommend and return again.
