Ben's Pizzeria

It is such a great divey place. It's a barebones pizza joint. Literally! The man taking the order and cooking the pizza was so nice! I was allowed to bring pomme frites and eat them with my slices (if they didn't allow I was just going to eat at the park nbd). I got a veggie slice and a margarita. I started with the margarita. It was delicious and crispy. I'd like to highlight the nicely acidic tomato sauce! Ample basil. Could use a tiny more mozzarella. But still really good. And veggie pizza is my jam. So no notes there from me there. There are both bar high tables and small booths. So I found it very useful. I can't believe I just tried this place. Never tried all my years there in school. It's located so conveniently to the school. Best for drunchies or late night munchies.

Understand one thing. Every restaurant has its place. Ben's is the after drinking need my cheap slice fix. For what it is, I'm calling it a win. They serve it up quick. The pizza is decent. The place itself feels like you were destined to win. Enjoy it after a night out. Cheers.

There's nothing like NY pizza or a NY pizzeria.Thank you for surviving and maintaining the quality after all these years.

It's easy. Walk in, get your reasonable priced slice of pizza and you are done! service is fast and they even have tables so you can sit and bite before you are off to your next place.

Got the worst service here. Abrasive staff that are degrading to customers. Do not go there.

I picked up a meatball slice and it was pretty good. Nice and crunchy crust on the bottom, though the meatball didn't taste like much. There's quite a bit of room in here to have a seat and eat, though it looks pretty old everywhere. Staff were decent.

Cheese Slice. OKAY. Pretty GOOD taste but not as GREAT as I expected. Slightly thicker than a true thin Slice. Still worth grabbing a bite here. RECOMMEND.

Firstly, I'm appreciative that they have a vegan option. Unfortunately the pie though wasn't that good. It was dry, very little vegan cheese for a cheese slice.

We were heading out of a show and popped in here for a slice. I must say.... this was some really good NYC pie. Their prices were really reasonable and the crust was nearly perfect. Their sauce was a little sweet but not too terribly sweet. Just the way I like it!

During a day of walking around NYC we came here for a late lunch. There was one other couple in there when we walked in, and they finished and left shortly thereafter. The employee greeted us and let us check out the pizza options. I got a slice of Sicilian and my husband got a slice of Supreme. The employee put them in the oven to reheat and get nice and crispy. After removing the slices and giving them to us, he scraped the oven--something I love to see because I HATE when my pizza tastes burnt. Unfortunately that seems to be very popular in NYC so it's hard for me to find pizza I like so we will definitely be back here!
