We visited John's of Times Square on the advice of my Sister in law, who visits when she's in New York City.
The restaurant is housed in an old church, with four brick pizza ovens installed on the back wall on two floors.
There is a nice bar up front when you walk in, and a nice large dining room in the rear of the building.
We started with some locally made lager beers on tap and a big, beautiful antipasti salad.
The drinks and salad were served promptly by our server.
The salad was crisp and delicious, with lovely little pinwheels of Soppressata and mozzarella.
The house-made dressing was superb... Tangy and tossed perfectly into the salad.
Mains were two large pizzas...One was pepperoni, mushrooms and (according to my bride) "REALLY GOOD sun-dried tomatoes".
My pie was meatballs and pepperoni.
Both pizzas had crispy, flavorful crusts, robust marinara sauce and ample toppings.
Do yourself a favor and make sure you get over to John's of Times Square, but don't try to pop in for a slice.. Only whole pies are sold here 😁
Amazing pizza and great atmosphere. The whole place looked stunning, with an amazing feeling. The staff were average and friendly. I got a salad which was good. It was fresh and refreshing, with a bit of spice which gave a nice contrast to the salad. The dressing was acidic and added great depth to the overall flavor. The pizza was amazing. The actual pizza was crispy but also soft. It gave an initial crunch, but was soft on the inside and the cheese mixed well with the tomatoes and basil. The crust was alright, not amazing but not horrible. Pretty average, maybe slightly above. It was too crunchy, more like a Olive Garden bread stick than a crust but it was still good. Overall amazing food and environment.
Who would think that in the middle of Times Square there would be a great pizza place in an old converted church. Well here it is. The owners renovated an old tabernacle church and are serving the best coal fired pizza. Everything is made to order so plan on sitting for awhile as you watch the pizza makers make your pie. Trust me… the pizza is the best and this is my favorite pizza in NYC.
