"Paulie Gee’s is our favorite pizza in the entire city and surrounding boroughs. This feels like an empty statement nowadays – but it is true. They have such unique pies with fresh ingredients and the dough is something truly special. After eating it, you’ll understand why people wait. It is absolutely worth it. The interior is dark, dimly lit, and generally loud when it is busy (which is most nights). The owner, Paulie G., walks around greeting patrons, wishing them a good meal. The whole atmosphere is hygge. When you go get the Cherry Jones. You will not regret it." - Milkshake
"Widely regarded as an influential, must-know pizzeria, it was profiled as one of the ‘legendary’ businesses in a series that spotlights iconic pizza establishments and their lasting impact on the local and national scene." - Eater Staff
"Husband-and-wife team Paulie Gee and Mary Ann Giannone are debuting a new cookbook, Pizza from the Heart, billed as "a love story between Paulie, Mary Ann, and pizza." The book mixes recipes and relationship lessons learned while the duo built their Brooklyn destination, which has now expanded to Chicago, Philadelphia, and more." - Erika Adams
"Plenty of pizza spots have supporters happy to defend their pies against any others, but few have enough diehards to spark a heated debate about pies on the same menu. Whether you think the Hellboy with spicy soppressata and hot honey or the Cherry Jones with prosciutto and dried bing cherries is best, you can try convincing your friends at sidewalk tables out front any day of the week." - matt tervooren
"A lot has changed about Greenpoint in the past few years, but Paulie Gee’s is forever. The Neapolitan-style pies here are still great, as is the candlelit, cavernous dining room. If you're planning a casual group dinner, this place should be at the top of your list—there are plenty of vegan pizza options for anyone who doesn't eat dairy. If you just want to get a slice, head to their grab-and-go sibling, Paulie Gee’s Slice Shop, just a couple blocks away." - bryan kim, neha talreja, will hartman, molly fitzpatrick
