The 10 Best All-You-Can-Eat-Deals in NYC - New York - The Infatuation

"The AYCE deal from City Island Pizza Co. in the Bronx doesn’t involve endless piles of sliced meat, like some of the others on this list. Instead, they offer an Italian-American Sunday feast. For $25, your meal will start with a large salad, garlic bread, and bucatini with home-style Sunday gravy, and you can load up on porky sausage and giant meatballs. If you’re one of City Island’s full time residents, congratulations. If not, it’s worth the trek. Just make sure to make a reservation." - will hartman, willa moore, bryan kim, carlo mantuano

22 Great Casual Italian Restaurants In NYC - New York - The Infatuation

"This City Island spot does a $25 all-you-can-eat Sunday Supper, which includes unlimited garlicky focaccia, iceberg salad, and bucatini swimming in a deeply savory tomato sauce, with tender sausage, and big, dense meatballs. Unless you’re a full-time City Island resident, getting to this cozy, green painted restaurant will be a journey, but we can’t really think of a better way to spend a Sunday evening. But you could come here with a group any night of the week for chicken parm, a few glasses of something red and Italian, and a couple of pizzas—we like the Red Hot Chili Pepper, with n’duja and spicy sausage." - willa moore, sonal shah, neha talreja, bryan kim, carina finn koeppicus

City Island Pizza Company - Review - City Island - New York - The Infatuation

"Unless you’re one of the 4,417 full-time residents of City Island, getting to this casual Italian restaurant is a bit of a journey. But make the trip for the Sunday Supper deal at City Island Pizza Company once, and you’ll soon be making plans to come back again. With a large sign welcoming you to "The Seaport of the Bronx", this cozy green-and-white pizzeria is the kind of place where regulars arrive to find their orders waiting for them, still hot. Conversation flows through the candlelit dining room as people debate City Island’s ferry requirements, or the most superior pasta shape while eating steamed mussels and parmesan-crusted polenta fries. photo credit: Alex Staniloff photo credit: Alex Staniloff photo credit: Alex Staniloff photo credit: Alex Staniloff photo credit: Alex Staniloff Pause Unmute The biggest reason to become a regular yourself is the $25 unlimited Sunday Supper. It includes salad, garlic bread, and bucatini with Sunday gravy, full of tender sausage and large, dense meatballs. But this is also a great spot on any night when you want to get out of your own neighborhood for some pizza—try the Red Hot Chili Pepper Pie, topped with n’duja and hot Italian sausage—and a steady stream of meatballs and wine. By the time you're on your second glass of nebbiolo, you might start feeling like you’re on vacation, even though you’re just on an island in the Bronx. Food Rundown Sunday Supper It begins with garlic bread focaccia and continues with classic house salad, the kind that lets the iceberg lettuce shine. And finally, the pasta and Sunday gravy, which are served separately. The red sauce tastes like it's been cooking for longer than you've ever stood in a kitchen before, and it includes meatballs and two kinds of sausage, both hot and sweet. The deal costs $25 and is available Sundays, noon-8pm. photo credit: Alex Staniloff Polenta Fries We can't say we usually order polenta fries, but in this case we're glad we followed our neighboring table's advice and got some. And now we're recommending them to you. These fries are smooth and buttery on the inside, crisp and parmesan-crusted on the outside, and served with marinara sauce. Red Hot Chili Pepper Pizza This pizza has a lot going on, and it all works. There's enough cheese to top approximately three pizzas, two types of meat—n'duja and sausage—and some light spice, from both the sausage and calabrian chiles. Order it, even if you're here on a Sunday and already overwhelmed by the unlimited meat. Pizzas start at $18 for a basic red pie, and there are six different kinds available. photo credit: Alex Staniloff Chicken Parmesan If you're here on some day other than Sunday and you're still in pursuit of soul-soothing red sauce, the chicken parm is the way to go. It's not as thin as some of our favorite chicken parms, but the edges are crispy, and it comes with linguine, as all chicken parm should. photo credit: Alex Staniloff" - Willa Moore

This is a must go spot!!!! The owner is amazing and makes your experience wonderful. The food is great, and must have there rice balls. If you take a girl to a date, take her or him here. The prices are good and desert is amazing. You can eat outside or inside.

We came for opening day brunch and it was beyond expectations. Food was fresh, portions super generous, and the vibe was upbeat and energetic. The avocado toast on focaccia was ridiculously delicious. It came with poached eggs and a whole burrata. Super filling. My daughter ordered the steak and eggs, which was also perfectly cooked. We topped it off with the French toast and some Rose Spritzers. We will definitely be back for this. Excited to have a new brunch spot on City Island!

I had an amazing time celebrating my cousin Sweet Sixteen Party at City Island Pizza Company. The staff was excellent and attentive and the food was great with plenty of options to go around. But the manager exceptional service was the highlight of the evening. He was incredibly accommodating and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. The manager exceptional service was put to the test that night, when a tragic accident shut down the Island and we were unable to get a ride off. Despite the chaos, he selflesly offered to drive us to the nearest train station himself. This act of kindness made us feel like family and he truly made our celebration unforgettable. I HIGHLY recommend City Island Pizza Company for any occasion.

I ordered the Margherita pie and wings. The first thing I noticed when I got my delivery was the delicious smell. The cheese used was definitely not the cheap kind. And the tomato sauce 😋. I have had gourmet pizza that made me regret paying for it. But this gourmet pizza was worth it. The wings were also awesome. It had a nice touch of sweetness. If you want average pizza go somewhere else. But if you want amazing pizza with outstanding ingredients go to City Island Pizza Company. Next time, I'm coming to the restaurant.

Ended up coming across this place by chance and I’m so glad I did! The first thing I noticed when I entered the restaurant was the delicious smell and the nice clean space. The food was delicious. It was probably the best pizza I’ve ever had and everything is made fresh. The owner is also very kind he made his way to each table to talk with the guests about the food. 10/10 definitely recommend coming here!

Immediately upon entering City Island Pizza Company, we were whisked away to a comfortable and engaging environment. The gracious greeting from Abby was heartwarming. The attentive service, genuine care and recommendations offered by Emily, our server, were second to none. The passion and expertise offered by the owner, Rene, enriched our dining experience. It was such a delight to chat with him about the various dishes that we ordered. What a powerful example of carrying forward family recipes and fusing together two cultures. Rene’s charismatic demeanor was shared with each of his restaurant guests. I watched him have such meaningful conversations and smiled. I know his conversation with me made me feel like I was the only person in the room. I am sure that others felt the same way! Ahhhh and the food! It was nothing less than exquisite! We had two appetizers, the meatballs and fried pizza. The meatballs immediately brought me back to an Italian specialty deli that we went to when we were kids. They had the most incredible meatball heroes. The recipe belonged to the store owner’s mom. The quality of the meat, seasonings and most of all the taste was incredible. The meatballs brought back a fond memory. The fried pizza was something I could never have imagined to be so delicious. The Caesar salad was by far the best that I ever had. Not only were the ingredients in the salad and everything else we had fresh, the dressing was such a beautiful blend that it made eating that salad an utter delight. I had the pappardelle and short ribs. The short ribs melted in my mouth and the pasta was just perfectly prepared, al dente. The sauce made you feel like you were back in time at a family gathering. My friend had the linguini and clams. I don't think he uttered a word as he ate the entire dish. Scrumptious to say the least! When you go to City Island Pizza Company, do not skip dessert! We had the zeppoles and the tiramisu. The zeppoles were perfection. The blend of the powdered sugar and cinnamon was incredible. Needless to say, the three accompanying dipping sauces made them that much more delicious. The tiramisu was a blend of Italian and Puerto Rican! It was a combination of an Italian dessert, tiramisu, and a Puerto Rican dessert tres leches. Unbelievably delicious! Our experience at City Island Pizza Company far surpassed the many other dining experiences that we have had over the years. Don’t miss out on this wonderful restaurant! EJ

When I tell you this place has the best eggplant parmigiana and pizza believe me. Their calamari pizza is so nice and fresh and I love the crunch crust. The eggplant parmigiana is so yummy and fresh, it melts in your mouth. They even have soft serve gelato. The pineapple is my all time favorite. I miss the waitress that was always there. Can we get her back please? Thank you.

I had been eyeing this place since it opened up. Since our first visit we have gone 3 times and every time it has been great. Once you walk in you are greeted warmly by the staff. I have gone on 'off times' so I have been able to choose my own seating but I'm sure during prime meal times they fill up. The menu is easy to read and you can tell there is some creativity coming from the kitchen. So far everything I have eaten has been excellent. I loved the fact that they used a cleaned out tomato can as the wine chiller. Very themed and cute. The inside of the space is homey and stylish. The bar area looks small but inviting and I look forward to sitting there on my next visit. RICE BALLS: CREAMY RISOTTO, DRIED SAUSAGE, FRESH MOZZARELLA The rice balls may be my favorite thing on the menu that I have tried. They are soft, gooey and generously filled. My mozzarella had an amazing cheese pull and you could tell it was fresh. HONEY -GLAZED GRILLED WINGS We ordered the larger size for the wings for two people and needless to say we took some home :) which is a "problem" I'm willing to take on. They were grilled as a finishing touch and the sauce was leaning more toward the sweeter side. It does say honey in the name so that is not surprising. If I get them again it would be in the smaller size so I can order something else :) CHICKEN SCARP: SPICY CHERRY PEPPERS, FENNEL SAUSAGE, HOT SAUSAGE, POTATOES The chicken scarpariello was good taste wise and I enjoyed all the components to the dish. My one criticism would be that it should be chicken on the bone. It's just how I grew up on it and expect it. However I do understand why many restaurants take on the boneless breast approach as it is more accepting to a bigger demographic. I would love it if it was made with chicken breast on the bone. That would be my ideal cut of chicken. RED HOT CHILI PEPPER: SAN MARZANO TOMATO, MOZZARELLA, PARMESAN, N'DUJA, SPICY SAUSAGE, CHILI PEPPER We ordered this to-go because we wanted to try the pizza since it's in the name but we didn't have any room left in our stomachs! I will say that I am not the biggest fan of spice and it was a bit overwhelming for me. Luckily my partner LOVES spice and was able to enjoy. The points I will touch on are the fact that the dough is seasoned and tasty and the you can tell the quality of ingredients they use on their pizzas are excellent. I am looking forward to trying a pizza with less spice because I know I will love it. Pepperoni is the spiciest I usually go so this is not the pizza you want if you can't handle it.

Upon arrival, the owner Rene wanted to seat my girlfriend and I, but there wasn't any. He asked us to have a seat at the bar and he comp'd us two glasses of wine while we waited when he didn't have to - The wait wasn't even that long. We got the polenta fries to start, pasta carbonara and the red hot chili peppers pie to share. All were delicious. What I enjoyed the most was the hospitality and Rene's attentiveness to us.

Got a chance to check out City Island Pizza Company after an afternoon at Orchard Beach! It's about a quick 10 minute drive from the rideshare pickup/drop off location at the beach so super convenient to get to. The restaurant was fairly empty when I arrive and my party was able to be seated in their insulated outdoor patio area. It was nice to have a secluded space to ourselves and I'm thankful that the hosts were so accommodating since it looked like they had the patio closed prior to our arrival. We ended up ordering the Caesar salad to share, the yuzu lime spritz to drink, and the Red Hot Chili Pepper pizza. I found the Caesar salad to be just okay- a little underdressed and under seasoned. The yuzu lime spritz was fantastic! Definitely a sleeper drink that gets you tipsy without you really even knowing it lol. And lastly, the pizza was delicious! Definitely more spicy than I was anticipating which I really loved. Super solid spot to check out!!

A friend and I realized we have not eaten all day. This place was nearby, looked cute, and was a non seafood forward option (which is hard to find in city island). We walked in and notice the cute homey atmosphere. Against the warning of someone- We chose to sit outside. For appetizer, I had the Cesar salad. The salad was a bit subpar. I wished the lettuce was crunchier and salad dressing more flavorful. For drinks I ordered the Yuzu Lime Spritz. This drink was lowkey good. It was very well balanced and snuck up on me. By the time I finished it- I felt a little tipsy. For our entree we shared one of their pizzas. We ordered the Red Hot Chili Pepper pizza. It came with San Marzano Tomatoes, Mozzarella, Parmesan, N'Duja, Spicey Italian Sausage, Chili Pepper. The crust was delicious, thin, and not over and under cooked. It came out hot and tasted fresh. The pepper added a spiciness that was not overwhelming. All in all I would recommend stopping by.

Everything was absolutely delicious!! We arrived and were the first to try their new menu. My friend had the Chicken Milanese and I had the Caesar salad with fresh grilled chicken. We also ordered an appetizer with prosciutto and fresh mozzarella. Everything was freshly made and delicious. The staff and owners were attentive and we even got to try their fried pizza appetizer. Delicious!! Beautiful restaurant. They were playing cool Italian music, I was dancing as I ate. Highly recommend. Can't wait to go back!

This is the best slice of pizza I had in a loooong time! The crust has a slight tender, flakey crisp to it., perfectly textured. I met the owner Renee and he explained how he supports local food business to get quality cheese and meats. The pizza is flavorful, quite addictive. The service is friendly, courteous and professional. It has a city island vibe. The ambiance is trendy, quaint, spacious and it leads to a backyard. When in the city island area I highly recommend you stop by city island pizza co. You can thank me later. :)

We have passed this place numerous times on our nightly walk and always say " we have to try this place", We finally did Saturday night. From the minute we walked through the door the service was outstanding, we got our drinks and ordered the rice balls for an appetizer And I got linguine with clams for dinner and my husband got the lasagna. The food was fantastic and generous portions, the nicest touch was the staff checking that everything was to our liking. Our evening ended with complimentary dessert which was absolutely delicious. We will definitely be back.

While I think the pizza at this new location is pretty good, I also think the owner may be missing the mark, trying to do boutique pizza or something. This is the Bronx after all, and as such people expect classic Bronx pizza, not some fancy schmancy triple-yeasted dough with a sprinkling of broccoli rabe for color or whatever the heck it is. Probably won't be coming back.

Top notch! City Island Pizza company goes above and beyond. The manager Kerri, is not only gorgeous, she is on top of EVERYTHING and keeps CIPC running like a dream. Our waiter, Joey was very attentive. I had the lobster roll, it was insanely good. Not drenched in mayonnaise, but prepared with butter and herbs. 10 stars. My elderly aunt had the steak and they perfectly cooked it for her. Definitely recommend and can't wait to go back!

I'm only familiar with the northeast Bronx, but in a heavily Italian-American area this place stands out as the best Italian restaurant. On par with the best restaurants in Brooklyn and Manhattan. The pizza is great but it's not *just* a pizzeria. Everything else--the salads, drinks, and pasta--are amazing too.

Yelp
I don't normally leave reviews, but this place is AMAZING! The food is authentic, and they make their own soft serve (and a bunch of other desserts), never have I ever had pineapple soft serve before I came here. Their pineapple soft serve is the best soft serve I've ever had. Their eggplant Parmesan and other entrees are delicious. To top it off, the inside is gorgeous!!! Such a lovely place and such lovely staff!!! This is my new favorite spot!!!

We had the Pizza Margarita delivered. This is the basic test if they know what they are doing. So fragrant! Delicious sauce. Superb, chewy crunchy crust. I would recommend this highly.

After visiting Italy and having the most amazing pizza there I was super excited to enjoy the same authentic delicious pizza right here on City Island! The ingredients are fresh and the highest quality which makes the pizza incredibly scrumptious! You will not be disappointed!

Ordered a Margherita pizza, 1/2 hot sausage for delivery. It was delicious, chewy, crispy crust, excellent fresh sauce and creamy fresh mozzarella. The sausage had the right amount of spice. It was delivered quickly, earlier than promised! Cannot wait to dive into the rest of the menu! So glad this restaurant has opened on City Island!!
