Master Critic Review

Delizia 92 8.2
Upper East Side-Yorkville
Delizia 92 operates as a hybrid pizzeria and red-sauce Italian spot, with a counter up front and a more traditional dining room for parm platters, pastas, and big family meals. Decades of neighborhood traffic and a huge takeout business make it one of Yorkville’s most relied-on Italian addresses.
Must-Try Dishes: Chicken Parmigiana, Grandma Thin Sicilian Crust Pizza, Chicken Parmigiana Hero

What makes it special: Long-running Yorkville spot where pizza slices share billing with serious parms and pastas.

When to visit: Weeknights for easier seating; weekends for lively crowds.

Insider tip: Use the separate dining room for lingering meals; the front stays busy with slice traffic.
