Profile

Though New York has a reputation as the pizza town, the sad truth is that your average Manhattan slice joint is actually pretty average. This corner shop, co-owned by an ex-cop and a pizza veteran from Long Island, tries to rise above the herd (and it does a smidgen). But generally, despite a crisp crust and cheese with flavor, slices are indistinguishable in appearance from scores of other places, and the standard toppings are just that, no more. Heros and calzones are a couple of notches better than the norm. The one true standout is the Nonna Maria pie, made with fresh mozzarella, basil, and a marinara sauce that’s a chunky, garlicky wonder. According to legend, via the blurb on the takeout menu, the recipe was brought over from Tuscany by the owner’s grandmother. Who knows if it’s true? And who really cares? The fact is, the super-tasty pizza brings some much-needed zest to a blah slice scene.

The terribly named Bleecker Street Pizza (confused all the time with Pizza Joints actually on Bleecker Street) gets a bad rap because "Craines" a gentrification news paper gave them a super review when they opened. To be fair, when you visit B.S.P. order the Nonna Maria ONLY! It is the only type of pie that gets the accoldaes that they do deserve. Why? Because the Nonna Maria is FRESH, you can taste it a mile away! I find it very hard to eat at average joints again, after having their Nonna Maria. The sauce, the cheese, the crust are fantastic. I just cannot go back to canned ingriedients...
