Was in the area and came to try this place with a friend. No table service. We got 3 slices of pizza 🍕, large french fries, cheese sticks and veggie soup. Pizza was great, fries were fresh and crunchy, soup was great large size, didn't know they had pasta in it tho. All large portions. Total was $45 (thinking back idk how that adds up, seems alot$$)..

As I kid, I went to this pizza place every Sunday with my father it was one of my favorite pizza restaurants, always sitting by the window and have a few slices of different kinds of pizza. My favourite is the pasta style, that is one my most nostalgic pizza's i've every had, always enjoyed it too. I stopped coming since I moved abroad, ten years ago to Israel, and I've been missing this place since. The pizza here isn't the best, though i wish Benny's opened a franchise here, it would be a hit, and It's something I'd love to see in the future. I'd love to visit Benny's again, it would be a dream to have the slice I've always wanted to try again. The crispiness to the pasta and crust, the cheese slipping slightly from the slice as you either have to use a fork and knife, or fold it and take a bite. I love Benny's and thank you for giving me some nostalgia, if i ever come back to NYC, this is the first place I'm going too! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

I had a couple of slices of pizza here. They were not the best ever but they were far better than I expected.

Really enjoyed the food here. All of the pizza is fantastic, some of the best NY style you'll get anywhere, not to mention kosher. Price is fair, I spent $16 on 3 slices. Good value. I just wish there was more light or ambiance in the space. There's no window along the right side wall and the light fixtures are kind of old. The mini split units don't help the look either, and the windowed door was being blocked from the outside. They should take some tips from very juice across the st.
