The Scene

Located at the mouth of the main Bleecker Street drag, Joe's is a perpetual melee of activity. There are a few small tables crammed into the dingy space, if you're really set on eating here. But most people order pie delivery or grab a slice to go.

The Food

Most of New York's top pizza joints don't serve slices, and most of New York's slice palaces serve pizza with cheese oozing off the pie. Joe's occupies a crucial middle-ground, churning out crisp, thin-cut slices with just the right amount of cheese bubbling lightly on top. It's best to stick with the plain slice; extra toppings tend to get thrown on carelessly. Pies are a different story--pepperoni, mushroom and other staples are properly cooked through in large or small sizes. There's Sicilian, too.
