The 20 Best Pizza Places In NYC - New York - The Infatuation

"Mano’s is not just a classic New York slice, but a classic New York slice shop as well. There are no servers. There’s no natural wine. If you pop in for lunch, there won’t be a tour group clogging the entrance. The Ridgewood establishment sports a standard-issue Italian flag awning, and it’s home to a perfect cheese pie with a thin layer of mozz that commingles with a simple tomato sauce, becoming one. There are, however, some fancy elements at work. The dough is fermented for days—resulting in a thin, crunchy crust—and the toppings range from garlic aioli and cracked black pepper to sweet caramelized onions swimming in provolone." - bryan kim, willa moore, kenny yang, carlo mantuano, molly fitzpatrick
