Notable Picks

$$ Ridgewood Pizza
A counter-service pizzeria with a more craft-minded dough approach than most neighborhood spots, where the crust texture is the main reason to show up. Keep it simple and let the core bake do the work, then add one signature pie if you want heat and richness.
Must-Try Dishes: Minucci pizza, Fulgieri pizza, Classic cheese slice
What makes it special: Dough-forward NY pizza with standout crust texture and focused topping builds.
8.1
$$$$ Ridgewood Italian, Pizza
A wood-fired, Neapolitan-leaning pizza room with a lively, modern space that feels built for groups and lingering. The strongest move is to treat it like a tight share-menu: one classic pie, one specialty pie, and one salad or starter so the table stays balanced.
Must-Try Dishes: Margherita pizza, Pepperoni pizza, Caesar salad
What makes it special: Wood-fired pizza in a buzzy space that’s built for sharing.
$$ Ridgewood Italian, Pizza
A polished, sit-down pizza spot where the strength is in disciplined ordering and well-built pies rather than an endless checklist of extras. Go in with a plan—one pie lane, one small plate, and one dessert or digestif—so it feels like dinner, not just slices.
Must-Try Dishes: Margherita pizza, Agnolotti, Tiramisu
What makes it special: Sit-down pizza energy with a more restaurant-style pace and polish.
