NY-style pizza & housemade pastas, plus beer & wine
"It may have started as a semi-secret pop-up, but there’s no hiding just how popular—or influential—Pizza Delicious has become. This Bywater standard helped herald in a golden age of New Orleans pizza, and it’s still making some of the city’s best pies. Its crust has that nice little snap when you fold it, and the toppings never overwhelm the simplicity of the red sauce. Their menu hasn’t changed much since opening the brick-and-mortar location, but no one would want it to. The margherita is perfect, but always look for specials like the Hawaiian or hearty vegan options." - chelsea brasted, megan braden perry

"This Bywater favorite is of course, best known for its pizza, but the rotating pasta offerings are not to be missed: spaghetti carbonara, spicy crab linguine, spring gnocchi, and pappardelle Bolognese might be among the options, and there’s always a vegan pasta option on the menu that’s just as good as the non-vegan options. Affordable and family-friendly with fluffy, delicious cookies to round out your meal." - Beth D’Addono
"Founded by two New Yorkers who pined for the authentic thin slice experience, this hip, industrial-chic Bywater pizzeria is considered by many to be New Orleans’s best. Cheese, pepperoni, and margherita are always on the menu at Pizza Delicious; otherwise, specials rotate. A small selection of worthy housemade pastas offer stiff competition." - Eater Staff
"On Piety Street in the Bywater neighborhood, Pizza Delicious was about as busy as it gets on Thursday, September 12, with wait times of up to an hour for a custom takeout pizza." - Clair Lorell
