Arturo's

White mucles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!we love this place !!!!!!!!!!!!Service was good.

*Unofficial "highly rated NYC pizza" trail review*Having lived in CT until college, New Haven coal-fired pizza was the standard I grew up with. At the time I was unaware that I was unknowingly ingesting the pinnacle of US-based pizza, and it's very hard to find that particular style, done right, outside of that state.Arturo's is as close as I've come (in recent memory) -- we had two pizzas and a calzone (spoiler alert, that's way too much for three people) -- one cheese, one with toppings, and the calzone with meatball.Going in reverse order:Calzone: Great dough, great crunch, far too much cheese. It was delicious but the meatball got lost.Pizza #1: The cheese was great once dolled up a bit. The crunch, the crust, and the sauce were all excellent but it lacked in the salt department. A pinch of salt, some oregano, and some hot pepper flakes took care of that.Pizza #2: Cheese, sausage, onions, peppers, basil, pepperoncinis. The toppings gave the pizza the salt it needed and this was a fantastic pie. I was impressed that the dough held up the same as pizza #1 despite all of the extra weight.We came for the pizza and nothing more, but much of the menu looked worth exploring. The $50 bottle(s) of Dolcetto d'Alba was an excellent value and the service was quick (but not too quick, they did a great job of spacing out our courses).Oh, and there is a literal tub shower in the bathroom should you decide to hardcore freshen up mid-meal. Weird, but interesting.

Arturo's remains a 'must visit' on our every couple of years visits to NYC. Always the same order, 2 Brooklyn Lagers and a large coal-oven cheese pizza. Always happy.

Place was pretty quiet on a Thursday night. We started off with fried calamari and stuffed clams and draft Guinness beers. The calamari was dry and stuffed clams were very bready. The drinks are a bit pricey for the ambience, and the Guinness was poured in a small water cup, not your classic beer glass. We got the Arturo's fiesta pizza. The crust was nice and crunchy, but a little bit too thick. What annoyed me the most was that I was finishing my slice of pizza, and the bus boy started clearing the table because the other two people I was eating with were finished, but he took my plate too when I clearly had pizza in my hand and then I had no where to put it down. I don't think I've ever experienced this in any restaurant before... the place wasn't even that busy so I don't understand what the rush was.

Hidden gem alert! This place should be more than its current 4.1 rating. This may now be one of my top 3 favorite pizza spots in the city. Usually I will pass on a 4.0 spot but I'm so glad I didn't on this Friday night.We were targeting Japanese spot nearby but we saw the pizza, live music, and had immediate seating so we decided to give it a try. Friendly service all around.Get the Arturo's fiesta for at least half and try something else for the other. The meatball pizza was good. My whole family enjoyed it and we took more to go. I can't wait to eat the leftovers now.We will be back!

I ate at Arturo's about 5 years ago on a business trip. The food was so delicious I've been thinking about it since. On my recent visit to NYC, stopping here was a must! I made a reservation on Yelp, which was very easy. They seated us promptly. They had live jazz music, which was nice.The service is top notch! Our server was great, but there were other staff members continuously filling our waters and clearing plates. We started with a small cheese pizza. The sauce was amazing, tons of cheese and the crust had a nice crunch. I had the chicken marsala with pasta. It was SO good! A large portion of 3 chicken cutlets and pasta. The sauce had the perfect marsala taste consistency, not too winey. Their complimentary bread with oil/balsamic is very delicious. Overall if was exactly how I remembered! I'd be a regular if I was local.

All things considered, this is the greatest restaurant in the West Village! The food is some of the finest Italian staples anywhere; the staff is one of the most professional and friendly in City; and the classic jazzy ambiance makes it one of Manhattan's most beloved places for unforgettable experiences. The range of this place is also amazing. You can be a local, a tourist, an adult or a kid, Arturo's will fit. The unique atmosphere that hearkens back to the days of the Golden Age of Greenwich Village makes for many happy Manhattan memories. Four generations of my family have been coming to this restaurant since the 1960s when in Manhattan both as residents and visitors. The coal over pizza is first rate, and I recommend the minestrone and lasagna. You cannot go wrong with Arturo's!

Very Disappointed! We have been coming here for over 25 years . Now something has gone terrible wrong. They no longer take reservations so we took our pizza to go. We asked for the Arturo Fiesta Special - well done- as we have for years. The pizza we got was completely burned down n the bottom and had about half as much toppings as it used to have. I also think the circumference was smaller as the slices seemed shorter than I remember. We are SO DISAPPOINTED!!! This has been our go to for my birthday and other special events for many years. My birthday this year has been ruined by this. Poor old Arturo must be rolling in his grave.

Lovely place Been going since the 80'sLive music Fresh nostalgia of New York City of my youth

My wife and I enjoyed our time in Arturo's. We didn't have a reservation and the staff still found a way to find a open table on Friday night. It was very nice. The food was good but not amazing. The atmosphere is typical NYC with some live music at times. Service was very good. I recommend it but I wouldn't go out of your way to eat here.
