San Matteo Pizzeria e Cucina

Pizza restaurant · Upper East Side

"If you want to sit down and eat a pizza on the Upper East Side, you should be going to San Matteo. They make Neapolitan-style pies in a wood fired oven that you can see in the back of the space, and almost all of them are under $20. You can also get a panuozzo here, which is pretty much just a very large sandwich made with pizza dough. There’s also plenty of seating, and you can always sit at the bar and watch sports on TV if it’s a Tuesday night and you don’t want to talk to anyone." - bryan kim
