Maffei Pizza (CLOSED)

Fantastic friendly service (he loves the Mets though...) and cheap, cheap lunches. "$2 for that, $2 for that..." Great food too. Not too heavy, juuuust right. On a meager NYC salary, their food is a respite of hope for survival in the City:o)

this place rules. the pizza is very good- especially the grandma slices. but it is the pastas, the vegetables, the meat loaf, and the delectable fried shrimp... mix and match as you wish. i eat there almost every day.

I just have to say Maffei's pizza is the best tasting pizza in NYC . I had the grandma's slice which was sooooo fresh and the sauce was incredible. Thank goodness for Italian people who know how to cook.

We had the chicken and broccoli slice, and Grandma's Pizza. Both were great. Halfway through the chicken slice, I asked for sauce on the side, which was chunky, rich, spicy, incredible. It elevated the slice to something really special. Grandma's doesn't need a thing. Incredibly fresh with a crust like no other. Go if you want great food, not great ambience (take out is a good option).

The Grandma's pie here is perfection, not once has it ever missed. In fact I am waiting for it to show up now and can't wait!

Ridiculously good!!! I haven't tasted pizza like this anywhere else in NYC. They put the same love into a plain cheese pie as they do the specialty pies. Tons of melted cheese that stretch when you pick up a slice, and the sauce has kick to it. You can even see the herbs and spices. Who's putting spices in their pizza sauce nowadays in NYC?? No one is making pizza like this. You won't need to add anything to it. Other pizzarias are cooking to feed masses in quick time. Maffei, is cooking like somebody's grandma. I had to call them to ask the secret, and you know what... he told me. AMAZING PIZZA.

Maffei's is the original - tubs of delicious food and phenomenal pizza - all shapes and sizes. now, maffei has buffalo wing pizza. brilliant. great eats for cheap all served up in a frenzy that screams new york,
