I had an absolutely amazing experience at 1943. The ambiance was fantastic, and the food was out of this world. The Harbor ale beer had a whisper of ocean brine, balanced and lovely, pairing wonderfully with the pizza. It had a medium hoppy flavor that was lightly sweet.
The red sauce ricotta, noonas meatballs, onions, and mozzarella pizza was perfection. It was just saucy enough, just cheesy enough, with a thin and crispy crust. The cheese pull was strong, and the crust was light, fluffy, and crispy. The red sauce was full of flavor. The meatballs, sliced like pepperoni, were savory, and the onions added a wonderful touch. The ricotta cheese was like mashed potatoes, simply amazing.
The Margarita pizza was another delight. The tomatoes were fantastic, with the added extras of potatoes and onions balancing the tomatoes' acidity and sweetness. The bright herbal garlic goodness with the soft starchy added mashed potato was a revelation. The crust was so good, you must make sure to eat it. Note that the Margarita pizza does not come with onions and mashed potatoes as standard, we added those as extras.
Lastly, the outdoor setting on the patio was private and secluded from the sidewalk, great for dog lovers. The indoor setting had a big oven in the middle, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The service was wonderful, kind, and generous, embodying the best of Long Island hospitality. We had such an incredible experience that we came back again the same day. I highly recommend 1943 for anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience.
