Brother's Pizzeria
750 Port Richmond Ave
Staten Island, NY 10302

Amazing pizza! Brother's puts the perfect combination of tangy sauce and cheese so it compliments instead of overwhelming one another. An old school pizza joint where family and friends can hang out and relax in a laid back atmosphere. Even better is that they stay open late. The best part is that no matter what time you walk in, there's always a large pizza in the oven waiting to be munched on, so the wait time is non-existent. The staff is super friendly and a bit of flirts but not in a creepy way.
Denino's Pizzeria Tavern
524 Port Richmond Ave
Staten Island, NY 10302

One thing I have always appreciated about Denino's is that they don't skimp on the sauce or cheese. They pile it on like there's no tomorrow. Pair that with the super thin crust and you have the Best. Pizza. Ever. It's the perfect combo of chewy cheesiness and zesty tomato sauce and the pizza never gets the least big soggy. They kind of skimp on the toppings but the pizza is so good you don't really miss it. While you're waiting inside the red brick pizzeria, check out their cute slogan: In Crust We Trust. The place is often packed so I recommend taking your pizza to go since the wait for a table is long.
Joe & Pat Pizzeria

I don't know how Joe & Pat's Pizzeria does it. No matter what time of day I go in, the pizza always taste so fresh. They make these pizzas that have super thin crusts and tangy flavorful sauce on top and it's not the least bit greasy. Since the location is out of the way, most tourists tend to miss this spot which is great for locals looking for a friendly lo-key place to relax and kick back with friends and family.
Gino's Pizzeria & Restaurant

The place is small but what is lacks in size it makes up for in charm. The slices are really cheesy, the crust has the right amount of crispness and they give you these humungous slices, which I love! There is a small dining area in the back which is often packed so take my advice and get your slices to go.
Bario's Pizzeria & Restaurant
446 Nome Avenue
Staten Island, NY 10314
(718) 966-0145
The pizza here is so good. They have a lot of variety pizzas but take my advice and go for the Sicilian or the Vodka. You won't be sorry. The sauce has this homemade, fresh, puts Ragu to shame taste to it. Bario's also tends to supersize their pizza so unless you come with a huge appetite, you're bringing home leftovers. The pizzeria itself is on the small side and parking is practically non-existent but the pizza is so worth it!
Special Thanks to Alma for her reviews!
