Roebling Pizza is a family-run spot dating back to 1960, serving no-nonsense New York slices and pies in a straightforward dining room just off Broadway. With classic cheese slices, pepperoni, and simple sourdough squares at friendly prices, it feels like the neighborhood’s old-school counterpoint to newer, buzzier slice shops.
