For our first night in NYC, we asked our hotel clerk where to get some good New York pizza and he recommended John’s. It was Sunday night of a 3-day weekend and the place was packed and we had to wait. By the time we were seated, we didn’t have time for pizza, so we ordered fried ravioli and pasta with vodka sauce. The ravioli were cold in the center, but the pasta more than made up for that. John’s Vodka Sauce is absolutely amazing!!! We enjoyed John’s so much that we returned the next night to actually have pizza which was wonderful. The service is great and the food was incredible! Don’t miss out on John’s!

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 😁
