"Escape from New York has been slinging slices for longer than many Portlanders have been alive. In an ever-changing city, EFNY’s reliable, foldable New York-style pizza is as familiar and steady as ever. The cheese vs. sauce needle here is tipped heavily towards the mozzarella end of the scale, making an Escape From New York a sound end-of-night counter-balance to that last drink you had at the bar. Unlike newer spots that strain to achieve the patina of an old-school pizza parlor, EFNY is the real deal, complete with service that is more New York-brusque than Portland-passive. Eat inside along a narrow counter or two small outdoor tables." - Nathan Williams
