I’ll throw in a plug for Scott’s Pizza Tours too — a few of us took the tour this January. If you, like me, were a child whose entire life’s goal on a daily basis was to identify your next source of pizza consumption, this tour is solidly awesome. You start at Lombardi’s, the birthplace of pizza, and get on a bus to a few different places around the city and the outer boroughs. Dude knows his pizza, pizza lore, pizzology, and it’s exponentially more interesting than that Sex and the City tour.
How much pizza ruled my life is a memory that somehow faded over the past 10 years I spent living away from the tri-state area in places that serve triangle-shaped pizza-flavored products instead of the real deal. Now it’s back, with a vengeance. Here’s Scott extolling the virtues of Patsy’s in Harlem.

Thanks for this post, Tim. Super-excited.
As for a favorite of mine (my search has also been limited): Lombardi’s on Spring and Mott.
i’ve been amazed since i started hanging around court st. (for work) that My Little Pizzeria gets so many props. i mean, it’s good, but, it’s not great. here’s some others to add to your search:
Johnny’s Pizzeria (59th and 5th ave, sunset park, bk) – this place was one of the best things about living in sunset park.
Muzzarella – Ave. A by 14th st.
and, of course, Grimaldi’s – 19 Old Fulton St., bk – which, in my opinion, lives up to all of the hype piled upon it.
Lombardi’s is great too! that’s where the pizza tour starts. They let the tour into the restaurant an hour before they even open to get exclusive tour of the kitchens and pizza sampling. Definitely will go back soon.
