Abitino's Pizza Rock Center

"Abitino’s Pizzeria is one of the oldest and best pizza spots in Manhattan! Authentic Italian American flavor perfectly baked crust and always fresh ingredients. Simply the best pizza in New York a true classic that never !"

"Great New York style pizza very close to Rockefeller Center just steps away from Times Square. We got an assortment of toppings and the garlic knots. Everything was delicious. You must finish it off with a cannoli."

"Honestly I was really surprised by Abitino's. I don't really expect great pizza in the more touristy parts of Manhattan, especially right next to Rockefeller Plaza, but Abitino's showed up when I was hungry and just needed a quick slice on the run. Expect the place to be crowded, it is tourist central in Manhattan after all. Since most people are buying by the slice it clears out quick though so you can probably snag a spot if you're quick enough. Overall seating and look of the place isn't anything to write home about, but it gets the job done, especially for the amount of slices they're outputting every day. It's hard to be as clean as they are in that area. Pizza was great, and even though I'm biased against square pizza I have to say the Spicy Sicilian stood out as the best I had there. Especially after adding the hot honey they had next to the counter. The sausage and pepperoni was delicious. Really my only feedback was that the white pizza was severely under seasoned. They had plenty of shakers, including red pepper, parmesan, salt, pepper, and a custom blend as well, so it was an easy problem to remedy and after adding a tad of salt and some red pepper flakes it was just as delicious as the other two. Pricing was really amazing especially for the location. I have absolutely no complaints about the amount we paid, especially given what some places around the area charge. I get that there's cheaper pizza around but I don't trust those $1 slice places, I've never had good pizza at those. The guy at the counter was a hoot and super friendly even when working with tons of customers. Honestly I would recommend this place to anyone who finds themselves hungry and in the area. Are they the best pizza in NYC? Nah, but if you're going to stick to the Times Square/Theater district area they're one of the best I've had, probably one of the better that I've had in Manhattan even. So if you're willing to cross a river for some better options, this is a solid place."

"Came around 1ish on a Wednesday, maybe 30-35 people in front of me and at first I was like “woah, this is gonna be a bit” nahhh ordered my food and was outside eating it within 15ish minutes! They don’t play around! The pizza was BOMB! The grandma slice *drool* the sausage roll *drool* just go… don’t let the line worry you! Also I’m from the Philly area, so ya know, had to get pizza in New York!"
