The Best Restaurants On Staten Island - New York - The Infatuation
"In case you live under a rock (Manhattan) and only know about the East Village location of Joe & Pat’s, let us provide you with a little history lesson. Long before Joe & Pat’s opened on 1st Avenue, it existed on Staten Island, in Castleton Corners. The year was 1960, so if we do the math there, they’d been perfecting their thin-crust, Staten Island-style pies for 58 years before they made their Manhattan move. If you call yourself a diehard fan of the vodka pizza (one of the best pies in NYC), you owe it to yourself to try it straight from the source. Round out your order with some baked clams and chicken parm." - willa moore
