Business Summary  what's this?
Patsy's Pizzeria in New York is a four star restaurant. This is a great place. Located in the Harlem neighborhood, this very affordable restaurant has been around for the last 60 years. It's known for its pizza. It's been awarded the Best of Pizza and 10 Best NY Pizza awards. Upon entering the restaurant, you'll find a family atmosphere. This place features private rooms. This restaurant is good for groups.
Patsy's has been open since 1932, and its coal-fired pizza oven was among New York's first. But the East Harlem pizzeria now feels woefully neglected, and eating in the decor-less dining room can be a...

I'm hooked on Patsy's. The pizza is delicious. It's reasonably priced - $11 for a plain (one size fits all) pie, but the thing is it's so deliciously thin, I can eat the whole thing at one time by…

I had heard a lot of hype over Patsys, which typically puts me off, however since I just moved in 2 blocks down from it, I thought I should give it a shot. So glad I did!!!

In operation since 1933, this is the real deal. Apparently, what sets this place, and a few others, apart from the rest is that they have a coal fired oven. You can't build one now by law but there is…

Yes, it is clearly one of the top three pizzas available in New York, but its location is also a big plus. One of the things I love about going to Patsy's is that it has a wonderful old New York feel to it....
