We only ordered one pizza and two beers, so I cannot comment on any of their other dishes, but the pizza was somehwat disappointing. It had a very good (not excellent) crust, smoky and crisp, but not particularly flavorful, a very generic-tasting sauce, bland generic cheese and bland toppings (somewhat unpleasant and flavorless in the case of their ricotta). In short, everything about the pizza except for the crust was hopelessly mediocre, and the crust was simply not quite good enough to make up for that. I've had better. Won't be back and will check out other places on my next trip to NYC.

I don't understand why people like this place so much or why they would wait on a long line for it. While it's not the worst pizza I've ever had, it's also not one of the best either. The staff is pleasant enough and we did not wait very long to get in, but even a 10 minute wait was not worth it. The so-called house salad is not worth it, $6.50 for pale, wilted lettuce, pale pink tomatoes, and so-so dressing. We ordered a basic sausage, onion, pepper, and mushroom pie. This is a classic combination which any decent pizzeria should get right. Well, John's did not get it right. The sauce was bland and the toppings were too. Overall it was very disappointing. We won't be back.

I've been eating at Johns on and off for my whole life. This year for my birthday i decided it would be great to introduce it to my freinds. Were from the Bronx and are all Pizza people. Despite the no reservations policy they were very helpful when I called and told them I had a large group coming in the middle of the dinner rush. We arrived 20 min later then we had told them due to construction on the 6, our table was ready and they didnt seem to mind us being late. Johns on Bleaker is a classic NYC JOINT, however if your looking for something a little more upscale their uptown location might be better for you. The Pizza was great like usual the bill for 20 of us after the tip was 200.00 bucks. A great deal for great food. One of the best Pies in the NYC.

The pizza here is very, very good. Wonderful crust, generous ingredients (except they skimp on the cheese, oddly). Service is neither friendly nor quick, and the booths are very, very uncomfortable. I mean REALLY uncomfortable. The place is also ugly and falling apart. However, if you like good pizza, go for it, and be prepared to pay too much for it. One more thing: the water doesn't taste good so you might want to stick to bottled beverages or beer on tap.

Don't get those bad reviews, went on a weeknight so no wait, and the pizza was absolutely delicious. Oh well, to each his/her own.

This is terrific pizza. The slightly blackened, crisp crust beautifully supports the fresh mozzarella and zesty tomato sauce topping. Don't mind the luke warm reviews - they are wrong.

Our party of 5 adults and 1 child decided to stop here last weekend while walking through the village. We waited about a half hour for a table. I don't really care what the interior looked like, it's a pizza place - who cares? The service was friendly but once our food and soda was dropped off, that was the end of our waiter until he brought the check over. I found the pizza over priced for what it was - bland and almost flavorless. The pitcher of soda we ordered didn't even have enough soda in it to serve all 5 of us, and we didn't have a shot in hell at ordering additional soda because we never saw the waiter again. I've worked in several restaurants and know what a 'pitcher' should look like, this was a lot smaller than what you normally get when you order your soft drink by the pitcher. I wouldn't return here or recommend it to anyone who hasn't already been here & know what to expect.
