In a lot of these places they get you with the drinks. The drinks are way overpriced.

Stupid Question But.....Are Pizzerias allowed to charge tax when you buy a slice?

Da Bomb - but not as good as it used to be when the old man was still alive.

I believe all establishments are required to charge tax on prepared food. However, I've always been accustomed to most pizza places including it in the price for simplicity.

My favorite in the city is the Ray's at St. Mark's and 3rd - not "Ray's Famous" - I absolutely love it. I agree with the other poster in wondering how a Domino's or a Papa John's could survive here.

I live in the Financial District, and unfortunately, most pizza places in the neighborhood are closed at night and on weekends.

Because, unlike the old days, a lot of NYC pizzerias are quite mediocre, and Dominos and Papa John's are now competitive.

I have had some FANSTASTIC pizza in this city but the average slice I have had here is not very good - Papa John's and Dominos can easily compete, as another forumer has mentioned. Though some of this country's best pizza (DiFara, Grimaldi, Totonno) can be found here, I have had many a slice here that is greasy, heavy, and of bad taste.. I would actually prefer Dominos or Papa John's to some of the terrible $3.50/slice pizza that is served in the average Manhattan pizzeria... even some of the places near me in Brooklyn are bad!
