"This pizzeria on the Lower East Side is the sixth version of this restaurant, and we know exactly why this place won’t die. It has the best Neapolitan pies in NYC—and possibly the world. Una Pizza Napoletana only serves five pies (plus any daily specials), and at least one margherita pizza should always be on your table. But since all the pizzas have the same otherworldly crust, you really can’t go wrong. The owner never stops tinkering with the recipe for the crust, even though it’s hard to imagine the pizza here getting any better. Una Pizza Napoletana currently releases two days in advance at 9am. (They may soon revert to a two-week window.) Walk-ins are accepted, but get here by 4pm if you want a good shot of landing a seat. When we stopped by on a Friday at 4:30pm, we received the last available walk-in pie for the evening." - bryan kim, neha talreja, will hartman, willa moore, molly fitzpatrick
