Artichoke's @ 328 East 14th Street. It's in the Village but very close to Union Square. I know it's not on the UWS, but it's good.

Famous Amadeus on Amsterdam and 90th, or Perfecto on BW and 92nd.

Patsys is the best "thin crust" pizza, unfortunately they don't deliver. Perfecto is a solid choice for delivery or for a simple cheese slice. For creative toppings, Two Boots.

I like Sal & Carmines when it has been reheated and so has that crustier texture.

or I should say, "crunchy" texture.

There's no good pizza on the UWS. The closest is Che Bella on Amsterdam, 119-120th.
I need to remind everyone that good pizza is sold also by the slice, so pie-only places get disqualified as mainland messes.

Is that a rule? Who made that up?

Nothing really great up here in the West 90s, especially since I'm not a Sal & Carmine's person. (Alan, I will check Che Bella out).

Perfecto does an okay slice and a better pie if you're ordering in -- try their spinach.

Every slice and any slice tastes terrible when you are underwater. But as a renter, my kids loves Francesco. So if you are 7 or 5 yo, I'd recommend it. But only if you are financially able to handle it. Home'owners should only be eating $.69 ramen specials at sam's club.

I kind of like City Pie. Just tried it for the first time yesterday. Otherwise like Rigoletto and Big Nick's

Fairway sells the pizza bread that you just finish cooking.

Rigoletto's is ok. We go there because it's the closest pizza to us.

sorry, jm, missed that. but one pizza place for the entire UWS? maybe you're just a die-hard fan.

maybe get out more often, but not with more variety? and you have a kid, of the relatively minted sort, with another one along the way.

i suspect alan gets out more often than you do.

I agree with the viewpoint of many of the posters so far that there isn't a lot of great pizza in the UPW. I think Patsy's is the best in the area. I also like Fairway Cafe's pizza. Especially as a little reward for myself along with a beer or two for battling through a weekly Fairway shopping trip.

Best I've tried is Perfecto Pizza on 93rd and Broadway.

Worst is Two Boots (should have been named Too Expensive) on 96th and Broadway.

my house on Friday nights. ok, not even close, but my 2 y.o likes it (plus my sauce is super-vegefied!).
I'm bored with Patsy's/Dean's. Perfecto is tasty. Rigoletto was unmemorable for me. Haven't tried the others.

V&T, on Amsterdam between 110th and 111th, has been a family tradition for us since I was a baby. The pizza is pretty good, but at this point I go for the memories.

uwsmom, avoid bringing your 2 year old to west 67th street. There's a extra hairy man who lives there who has acknowledged being inappropriately nude around children.

Sal and Carmine's is way too salty! Cheesy pizza(100&B'way) is actually better but what about Angelina's further up around 105th and B'way?

Go down to Chelsea - Company. NE corner of 9th Avenue and 24th Street. Best pizza in all five boroughs.

Yeah, its a wasteland. I like Cheesy... which is also spelled Cheezy (they had two competing signs).
