"It has come to our attention that Prince Street Pizza has a history of racial discrimination and racist messaging both online and in the restaurant. As a response to these instances, we have removed Prince Street Pizza from our guides in which they were previously featured. Prince Street Pizza is a slice shop in Nolita that specializes in hefty, square pies with spicy, garlicky tomato sauce. There are a bunch of options for toppings, but you’ll notice most people opting for the thick pepperoni cups.

"New York pizzeria offering the Original Prince and Spicy Spring pies." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Opening this fall at 350 King Street in the former Tasty Thai & Sushi space, this New York pizzeria makes its first Southern foray after building a following in cities including Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Chicago, Miami, Toronto and its Nolita origins. It's best known for the Spicy Spring — a thick-crust Sicilian square with a spicy-and-sweet red sauce, aged mozzarella, and an abundance of pepperoni cups — and routinely draws long lines and late-night crowds that are likely to attract King Street partiers seeking post-bar snacks. The brand remains very popular despite a 2021 backlash in which resurfaced screenshots showed apparently racist Yelp posts attributed to the founder; he and his son stepped down and the company issued a statement acknowledging past shortcomings and condemning racism. The Charleston shop will be run in partnership with a local operator to be announced closer to the opening." - Erin Perkins
"Prince Street Pizza, originally founded in New York's Nolita neighborhood in 2012 by Frank Morano, is known for its Spicy Spring Sicilian square. The pizzeria is expanding to Chicago, with its first Midwest location opening in West Loop. Despite past controversies involving the founder, the restaurant's popularity continues to grow, with multiple locations across the USA and Canada. The Chicago outlet will offer the same iconic slices and pies, made daily from scratch. Local operator David Choi, founder of Seoul Taco, will oversee the Chicago location, aiming to bring the acclaimed pizza to the city's diverse food scene." - Ashok Selvam
"Prince Street won out with a 7.7, but overall, the slices were 'underwhelming.'" - Luke Fortney
