Master Critic Review
Prince Street Pizza
8.8
Prince Street Pizza’s cramped Nolita shop draws relentless lines for its thick Sicilian squares, especially the cult Spicy Spring pepperoni slice. It’s mostly a grab-and-go operation with curbside eating and minimal seating, but the combination of crunchy crust, rich sauce, and heavy toppings keeps it a destination slice stop.

Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking only; metered spots on Prince St. and surrounding blocks are scarce, especially evenings and weekends.
Dress code: No dress code — come as you are; this is a grab-and-go slice shop.
Noise level: High — tight quarters, constant foot traffic, and street noise make lingering conversations difficult.
Weekend wait: 20–40 minutes in line, longer after bar hours.
Weekday lunch: 5–15 minutes depending on tourist traffic.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes — cheese Sicilian, SoHo squares, and rotating veggie-topped slices.
Vegan options: Very limited — no dedicated vegan cheese; occasional veggie marinara slices may work for strict vegans.
Gluten-free options: No gluten-free crust or accommodations.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Only if your date appreciates iconic NYC street-style food and doesn’t mind standing; it's more about the slice than the ambiance.
Can I get a table without a reservation? There are no tables or reservations; expect to eat curbside or take your slices to a nearby park.
Is it kid-friendly? Kid-friendly for quick bites, but the cramped space and long lines can be tough for younger children; best for older kids who can handle waiting.
Best For
Better for: Massive, indulgent Sicilian squares with signature pepperoni cups and superior crust crunch compared to thinner-slice competitors.
Consider Alternatives If: You want seating, gluten-free options, or a calm sit-down meal — nearby full-service pizzerias will be a better fit.
