"The crust was thicker, stiffer, and more browned at Rosario’s Pizza, founded in 1963. For the meat lover, there was a slice with pepperoni and Italian sausage, buoyed by mozzarella." - Robert Sietsema

"Rosario’s Pizzeria has two locations in the city—one in Passyunk Square and the other in the —and at both, you’ll get pizza good enough to shout about them from the top of the Rocky Steps, One Liberty, or whatever doubles as a mountaintop around here. They make New York-style pizzas in varieties like al pastor, which gets a kick from the guajillo pepper base, marinated pork, and pineapple, and the avocado and sausage-topped Mexicana. If you’re in the mood for pizzas with lots of cheese, a garden’s worth of chilis, and hefty chunks of quality meat, this is the place.  " - Candis R. McLean

"The crust is thicker, stiffer, and more browned at this Lower East Side stalwart founded in 1963. For the meat lover, there’s a slice with pepperoni and Italian sausage, buoyed by plenty of mozzarella. In fact, the pizzeria describes this slice and several others as deep dish, referencing a Chicago-style pizza rarely seen in New York, especially among neighborhood pizza parlors. We're lucky to be able to buy it by the slice." - Robert Sietsema

One of the best finds! I ended up here by luck! I wanted to eat all the pizzas in the house. Excellent crust, perfect tomato sauce and right amount of cheese. The owner saw I was alone and gave me so many recommendations for the city. He was so lovely and friendly. I never leave reviews but I believe this place has the best pizza in the NYC! Make sure to check it out :)

A perfect NY slice. Sauce, cheese, and crust were all in a harmonious symphony of deliciousness. I have had many slices in my day, and this pizza really is perfect. Also, the staff is quite friendly. They charge $2.75 for a regular slice, which is worth it, in my opinion. The dining area is kind of lackluster, but this is still an incredible pizzeria

This is the genuine article. The counterman REALLY DOES speak Italian. Great sauce, great cheese, perfect crust. Cheap price. A piece of authentic and vanishing NYC that wont be around for much longer. No hipster grub here.

Went on a Monday and felt a little underwhelmed. We had the caprese slice, white pizza, and a pepperoni roll. The roll was decent, but are spoiled by double Dave's pepperoni in Texas which are by far superior... That said the roll was the best thing we tried and definitely worth it if you have not had a double Dave's roll. The white pizza lacked flavor and dimension and tasted a bit like friend cheese only... The caprese was okay but we have had much better here in New York. The crusts we're very crisp if you like that then you won't be disappointed there... I would have liked a little more give to the crust personally... Just overall pretty blah in my opinion, but could be another person's cup of tea...

Ignore uppity reviews below. Rosario's is a fine establishment. A utilitarian spot slinging tasty slices to NYers of all stripes. Clearly a holdout in much-changed neighborhood.

Owner was very friendly and informative on things around town. My family and I are there twice while in New York. Pizza was delicious. They had deep dish and New York style slices. We would definitely go back!
