Joe’s Pizza – pizza_restaurant

Joe Pozzuoli left Naples and opened a slice counter in Greenwich Village in 1975, and the formula has barely moved since: a thin, foldable New York slice, cheese first, handed across the counter fast. The menu is deliberately short — plain, pepperoni, a few specialty pies — because the plain slice is the argument. Half a century on, tourists and lifelong New Yorkers stand in the same line without anyone finding it odd. Some places get famous by changing. This one got famous by refusing to.
