Clam Pie!!! 3/25/2005

When my brother and I we had too much pizza in New York, we would like to order something else from the menu. Recommended by other reviewer, we ordered a clam pie. When the pie came to our table, we were thinking... ""oh no! is a pizza again!"" To our surprise, this pie is definately different! This is the best pizza that we have ever taste! We arrived at 4pm, so no waiting was necessary. But we saw there was a long long line when we visited the Little Italy at night... so better make your reservation when you plan to have dinner at the ""normal hour"". Pros: Clam Pie, Friendly staff more

Hint: make a request for one of the three tables in the kitchen. Watching the coal oven in action is half the experience! Pros: Pizza, Pizza, Pizza more

Simply the best... 2/18/2005

I have to agree with everyone else this is the best pizza i've had so far...the wait is about 30-45 min. the servers aren't the best but the pizza is worth going through all of it. I definitely will be back whenever friends come to visit. And they've renovated so there's more seating. Pros: pizza, pizza Cons: wait but its worth it more

Yum Yum 1/20/2005

This pizza is awesome. There wouldn't be lines a mile long with locals if the pizza wasn't excellent. The crust was a bit salty but during a 4 day stay in the city, we ate there 3 times! Highly recommend!! more

The best pizza I've ever had! We ate on the roof and it was great. I loved the atmosphere and the fact that we were treated like family. More than worth the trip in from NJ. We always bring out of state guests to Lombardi's. more

If this is what New Yorkers consider GOOD brick oven pizza, they've lost their taste buds.Soggy uneven crust, tomato sauce with no flavor and average mozzarella.. What a disappointment more

Best Pizza! 12/29/2004

Wow, New York is making me so fat!!! Another great meal, and this time the best pizza I've ever tasted. Two of us arrived at 9:30 and seated straightaway. We shared a medium pizza and it was HUGE! Unfortunately, we were going out to bars after so we couldn't take away what we didn't finish. Only thing is they don't serve desserts. Guess no one's ever made it that far with their appetites! Decor is laid-back, lots of brick and stone. Prices are reasonable. Go there for the famous pizza and enjoy. Pros: Great pizza, Cheap(ish) and cheery Cons: , No desserts! more

Worth the wait! 11/28/2004

We went to Lombardi's the day after Thanksgiving at about 2:15 pm and had to wait 45 minutes for a table. There is a bar area but we just waited by the door, watching the multitudes of people come in to ask for a table. Finally we were seated and ordered a small pie, half cheese/half pepperoni. We were not disappointed. The sauce was perfect, not bland or too sweet. I also liked the proportion of cheese. They put a shaker of garlic powder on the table (good idea), although fresh garlic is free. I would rate this as the best pizza in NY! Pros: Cheap, The best!, Fast cooking times Cons: , Crowded more

The Best Thing in New York 10/12/2004

A groupd of teens from a church I used to attend went there for a mission trip and we dined at lombardi's. We all enjoyed it and I did more than anythign b/c I love pizza! It was the best pizza I had ever put in my mouth and to this day still is. Pros: service, prices more

Awesome Pizza! 10/3/2004

Apparently this is listed twice or something because the address I had showed it on a different street. Took awhile to find by asking NYers, but definately worth the hassle. The pizza was nothing like any chain pizza! Crunchy, thin crust with huge (fresh) toppings. We got a pitcher of sangria too, and it was $37! No ice in it so it lasted a long, long time. I would highly recommend you stop here if you plan a trip to NY! The staff were very friendly and service was prompt. Pros: Great Pizza, Good Service, Easy To Find more

Delicious and Excellent Service 9/11/2004

When I sat down with my 5 and 9-year old children, the waitress suggested that she put the basil on the side because many times children do not enjoy the taste. I thought it was very considerate of the witress to think of that. The service was excellent. The three of us enjoyed the pizza, as it was a pleasant departure from the plain ordinary pizza in the New Jersey surburbs!!! more

Worst than Pizza Hut 9/4/2004

Well, I was taken there ""again"" by some friends who read about it here at Citysearch. I tried to convince them otherwise but...... Anyway, same story: - Very bad service (rude also this time) - Pizza with black stains - Cold appetizers Price ?? so and so... it should be lower considering the quality. Later, Jas Cons: No Parking, Crowded, Not tasty food more

Pizza had bits of charcoal on it 9/1/2004

The hostess was very rude and yelled at us, claiming that she had been calling our party for along time and oh tisk why hadn't we answered her? The pizza did not have a smoky yet bitter delightful flavor. Rather, it had bits of charcoal still attached to the crust which made it taste very bitter and was inedible at best. It was inexpensive though but with all of the rest said...who cares? Pros: many soda choices Cons: , no liquor in drink, rude staff more

Brilliant Pizza, Bigger Digs 8/16/2004

Lombardi's on Spring Street recently expanded to offer even more seating, which translates into less waiting for a taste of the best pizza I've ever had. The complex flavors of the oh-so fresh toppings nestled on a savory layer of tomato sauce coupled with the crispy thin crust make for the peak pizza experience. Pros: Flavor, Flavor, Flavo, Great service more

Overrated 8/12/2004

Have the people who say Lombardi's is the best NY pizza actually eaten there? I was so excited to try it, having been a totonno's addict for many years. Not only is is not as good -- it's not even close. Both have great crust, though Totonno's is a little lighter and thinner. The sauce at Lombardi's was more acidic, but the biggest difference was the cheese. At Totonno's it has some tang to it, with a little bit of baked parmesan on top. Lombardi's fresh mozzarella was bland, flavorless. Toppings-wise, Lombardi's garlic meatballs were terrible, sliced too thick and overdone. Beyond that, the menu at totonno's is amazing, great salads, egglant parm, penne vodka. Lombardi's salad dressing is so heavy on the vinegar it brings tears to your eyes. Lombardi's doesn't hold a candle to totonno's and has rested on its laurels for too long ... Pros: upstairs patio Cons: , bad sauce, weak menu items more

THE Pizza to get in NYC!!! 8/11/2004

I'm a pizza snob and this is the only place I'll eat pizza. I've turned all my friends into die hard Lombardi's patrons as well. We waited in line one day after picking up my wedding dress for 45 minutes - THATS how good it is! They also have yummy sides, but I try not to fill up sides and salads - the Pizza's where its at! Pizza in about 5 minutes - how good is that. Pros: Pizza, great prices more

A pizza F service 8/6/2004

Just had pizza here Saturday 08/07/04. No lines when we arrived at noon, we were seated promptly. It took 15 minutes for the waitress to take our order. One regular and one clam pie. Well we never got the clam pie or an offer for a second round of drinks. Only after a busboy tried to clear our plates did the missed order become evident. They did offer to make it, but we were a bit ticked by then. The place was not crowded, but the entire staff seemed harried. Pizza was excellent though, but probably not worth the bother, as there are dozens of places in the city with pizza as good and decent service. Pros: Pizza, Pizza, Pizza Cons: , Service, Service more

It's not Chicago Pizza 8/3/2004

I guess this is your quinnesential New York pizza. Thin burned crust, average toppings, but good fresh mozzerella cheese. If you want to try a classic New York pie, head elsewhere because there's really no difference between one place and the next. Since this one is old and is hyped the line outside is no indicative to a quality meal. I'd rather spend my time on an airplane to Chicago to grab a real slice of deep dish pie. Pros: cheese Cons: , sauce, wait more
