"What makes Patsy's pizza the best: a fine crust with just enough char to give its bready circumference a smoke flavor."
Michael Stern
"Waiter Victor stands under the oil portrait of Frank Sinatra that graces Patsy's wall. Frank supposedly liked this pizza so much that he had it flown to movie locations and night clubs when hunger struck."
Michael Stern
"Cheese on the fresh mozzarella pie melts into pools across the surface. It is very subtle-flavored. When we ordered both kinds of pie, we were advised by the staff that we should eat this one first, as fresh mozzarella has a shorter half-life than one made with regular cheese."
Michael Stern
"The granddaddy of New York pizza-by-the-slice. It is thin, crisp-crusted, and full-flavored. This is a whole one, but when you arrive at Patsy's, you'll likely see customers standing around on the sidewalk or inside the walk-up storefront eating it by the slice."
Michael Stern
"On First Avenue between 116th and 117th Streets, Patsy's is a New York gastronomic landmark."
