Well, this is now the 2nd Food Guy recommendation I have taken (along with the Tim Tams), and I must say, Food Guy continues to impress!! I’ve seen a lot of hype on various message boards across this site comparing Pizza Suprema vs. L&B’s Spumoni Gardens, and although I grew up with L&B’s sicilian slices (I’m still a loyal fan of them), I swore it was the best pizza place. Now, having tried Pizza Suprema’s upside-down slice, the sauce was different (slightly sweet) but still amazing. I would have to say that they are both at equal ranking in my book, but I just happen to live much closer to Suprema, and they’ll deliver to my place, so I guess they just won over a new customer.

If you go there, you’ll even see that they post ALL kinds of positive internet reviews on the walls and tables. Let’s see if we can get Food Guy’s reviews there too. Who’s with me?

Carter,

Thanks for the heads up. I’ll make sure to ask nicely if I do have to go.
Where else do you like to eat pizza in NYC?

Just don’t ask to ever use the bathroom. My friend asked while I was still finishing my food, and the manager started screaming profanities at us, tell us to get the f*** out and never come back. I didn’t leave until I finished my slice and water though, b/c the food was still good even with him yelling at us through the remainder of the meal. Was pretty surreal.

Thanks for the heads up. I’ve heard great things about Keen’s really need to get over there one of these days. You talking about Molly’s on the UES?

Molly’s and Finnegan’s Wake have great burgers with very relaxed atmosphere. Keen’s is amazing but you have to be ready to do the banker steakhouse vibe.

Pizza, Pizza!,

First off thanks for stopping by and spreading some pizza knowledge. I have to agree with you that NY Pizza Suprema’s upside down slice is EXCELLENT. I don’t remember my one time at LB well enough to say for sure which is better. That being said, I don’t think these are actually grandma slices, I think they’re just upside down slices, like you said.

Also, the Suprema regular slice I had was very ordinary. The sauce was overly sweet and the crust was nothing special. I’m down with Suprema, don’t get me wrong, but I’m sticking with the Sicilian (which is also excellent) and the Upside Down.

So what else is on your top pizza in NYC list?

I’ll give LB Spumoni props, but I have to say that NY Pizza Suprema’s upside down is over the top! Go and see for yourself, the slice speaks for itself. LB has got some serious competition for the best grandma slice award! That said, Suprema’s regular slice and fresh mozz. with basil are phenomenal!!!!! I’ll take the liberty and say probably the best pizza in midtown, if not even all of NYC.

Ah, I’ve been to Stout before, once last year. While the turkey burger was not particularly memorable, the sweet potato fries were where it was at! If you ever go there again, just get a basket, and skip the burgers.
