Handcrafted Neapolitan pizzas, pasta & Italian wines near High Line
"A local favorite known for New York–style pizza sold by the slice and laid-back vibes; a convenient quick-lunch choice with mouthwatering weekly specials that include vegan and gluten-free options." - AFAR
"Order a classic Neapolitan pizza from this ideal neighborhood spot." - hannah albertine, nikko duren, bryan kim, arden shore, matt tervooren
"This location of Ovest on 27th street right by the High Line is where groups of friends get Thursday night drinks and pretend they’re not planning on going to work on Friday. If you’re looking to have a deep conversation about how much you love your new trainer, this is not the place for you. It’s too loud and not exactly private. But if you want to eat solid Neapolitan pizza along the bar or at one or the larger tables here while singing along to your favorite ABBA album, this is where you should be." - hannah albertine, nikko duren
"This decade-old pizza pioneer opened in Chelsea’s gallery district way before most other restaurants appeared there, with the exception of the Red Cat and a couple of other old-timers, most now long gone. The space is warehouse-like, the bar provides cocktails in addition to beer and wine, and the exemplary pizzas fly from a wood oven that casts flickering shadows on the brick walls — a perfect date spot." - Robert Sietsema
"About ten minutes from MSG, you’ll find Ovest - a neighborhood pizza spot on 27th Street wih a big bar area and a foosball table outside (something we’d like to see more of in this city). Come here for very good Neapolitan pizzas, all of which are under $20 - and skip the desperation slice on the LIRR floor of Penn Station." - Hannah Albertine, Bryan Kim, Matt Tervooren
