NYPD Pizza

I ordered takeout here last night.
I called by phone and was able to place an order quickly. One thing to note, the menu on Unilocal is different than the one at the restaurant.
I ordered the Brooklyn which included a ton of cheese, sausage, pepperoni and anchovies. The food was made quick and was ready for pickup in about 15 min.
Overall the food was hot and tasty and the service was quick and easy.

I really really wanted to like this pizza. I’ve been in Phila. for 3 yrs., and still have not found a proper ‘everyday’ pizza. Delivery was prompt, the folks taking the order were courteous and the pizza arrived hot — enough. Problem was it was overly salty, not super flavorful and the Hell’s Kitchen Hot chicken wings were completely mushy on the outside due to steaming in the carry out container. Also, the celery was wilted as a result of the heat and steam.
And so I press onto the next pizza candidate…

This pizza gets the job done if you’re really craving, but there are other options in the area which I prefer more if open. There is a good variety of pies but that might be at the cost of higher quality.

Why the hell is a popular pizza place CLOSED on Saturday? Especially on the day before the superbowl. I dont like places that are closed Saturday. Is it Jewish or something? If I owned a pizza joint center city, it for sure would be slamming on friday and saturday nights. I cant support this business. Plus I dont particularly like police.

Delicious delicious delicious. The crust wasn’t too thick and the pizza was thinner than most. The sauce was delicious too. We just got a pepperoni delivered and it was perfect for a night in.

We did our best to try not to judge the book by its cover and were glad we ended up trying this place out before our show. The selection was really limited in my opinion being a mushroom lover. Pizza’s didn’t look as fresh as ideal either with a slightly stiff cold look to them. We felt bad walking out so decided to give it a try. The classic margharita slice was yummier than expected. Perfect thin crust that they heated up well. Service was very friendly and tables were clean. This quick meal was perfect to get us through the show with just enough room after for gelato.

Husband and I were (and are still) looking for a good pizza spot! He is a pizza elitist and can’t seem to find a philly pizza home.
On Labor Day we tried out NYPD– got a plain pizza and chicken fingers deluxe.
We were pretty disappointed! The pizza was mediocre! Nothing memorable about it. the chicken fingers were tough and cold. and the fries were stuck together and hard. Not a great use of 30 bucks.
Onward we go to find out philly pizza spot!

I would give the pizza 3.5, bump it up to 4 stars for good service. Next time I come will get a whole pizza instead of just slices, they only had a couple out for purchase by the slice when I went.

Moved back to Philly from NY. Believe me — it’s hard to find good pizza in NY as well. NYPD is fabulous. We’ve tried a lot of places but they were really pathetic.
The only negative I have (maybe they added salt) — is that it was too salty. Not while eating — but couldn’t quench my thirst the entire night.
STILL worth it.

I thought it was okay. Nothing over the top, but I’d like to try ordering a pizza to see how it tastes fresh out of the oven. I only had a plain slice, which wasn’t heated that well and was probably sitting out for a while, so it didn’t taste that good.

So the pizza here, I have to say, was pretty good. Unfortunately, I have to leave a bad review because immediately after eating it and then for the next 2 – 3 days I was extremely sick to my stomach. I’m not sure why and I hate to blame this establishment but I don’t think I’ll be giving it another shot anytime soon.

I’d have to say this is my favorite pizza in Philly!

Best pizza I’ve had in Philly so far! I love New York pizza and this definitely satisfied my craving for good pizza. Prices are reasonable and the staff was friendly, too. This is my new go-​to pizza place in Center City area.

Are you serious closed on sat nights? Wow one of the busiest nights for pizza sales and you close.

I ordered from NYPD with the thought that I’d be paying 16.95 like the menu says. But when the guy arrives I am charged $ 31.65. So I call and ask why, she says oh our menu is wrong. Are you freaking kidding me. How is this ok? The menu should be honored. Never again… Even with this being the only place to deliver to my location, I’d rather avoid this place.

Had their Hawaiian pizza and it was great! Friendly and quick service. A little pricy for pizza but it was delicious.

This feels like we were back in New York. We never bothered getting toppings, it’s NY pizza, who needs toppings?!
We usually get garlic knots with it, it doesn’t seem like knots exist in Philly like they used to in NY. That being said, these are not NY knots. At 75 cents a piece, you are getting garlic fists (I kid you not, these are fist sized garlic knots), not the small knots we used to get in pizza specials in Queens. While that’s not bad, the appeal of knots was having 1 or 2 with a slice to make a meal, whereas with these bad boys it’s «split 1 between two people» to put with a slice to make a meal. I had one left over from our last order and turned it into sandwich bread.
We’ve gotten delivery once and takeout once. Both were very quick, they accept credit cards (not sure if there’s a minimum), but the big downside to NYPD is no online ordering!!! And no website at all to verify their items/​prices! Some sites have outdated links to pictures of an old menu, Google tries to link you to a place in Arizona. They need to up their online presence in today’s world.
All in all, if you’ve come from NYC and want to place a phone call where neither side said please, thank you, or more than 3 words per sentence, this is the place. They’ll bring you a fantastic gigantic pizza and no apologies. They’ll do it quickly, they’ll do it well. If you want Domino’s… they’re more than just pizza now, I hear. If they were ever actually pizza in the first place.

This is hands down the greatest spinach ricotta pizza I have ever had. When I visit Philadelphia, my first stop is to this pizza place. If you like white pizza, you must try this place. It has lots of garlic, abundant spinach and generous piles of ricotta. It crispy and oily and chewy all at once. I have not tried their other options, as I love the spinach too much. But in chatting with the owner, he told me he makes 95 lbs of dough once and sometimes twice a day! This was while he was sizing out chunks out of an enormous pile of dough the size of a bosu ball. Go visit this great place, you will not be disappointed!

When you want a no frills, but good pie, this is your place. Inexpensive, fast, greasy (in a good way) pizza. I stick with the plain here, and I love it. It’s close to Jefferson too, should you find yourself visiting someone who can’t stomach another day of hospital food!

Where else can you find an NY slice in philly? My only complaint is that I didn’t find this place sooner. Basically from the moment you step inside this place, you feel like you’re in the city, from the narrow hole in the wall feel, to the case of delicious pizzas right up in your grill. I just went with boring old plain slices but it was so good and what I’ve been craving! As a New Yorker I have very particular tastes when it comes to pizza and this place has been the only one that comes close to NY standards in Philly.
