“Just visited Totonno for the first time, the decor was cute and the service was friendly; although my friends and I felt like we were in someone's kitchen, as the personal conversation between employees was loud!”
“I'd recommend the half-and-half pie on your first visit; that way you can make up your mind if you like the red pie or white pie better.”
“Embrace it as you enjoy some very good pizza.”
“Before the previous owner past away (current owner's uncle i think), it was only open on weekends, and closed after the dough ran out, 1 hour wait for a pizza was good, and there were no markings on the store to suggest it was even open!”
“The service was friendly and competent, contrary to legend.”
“Given the plethora of great pizza parlors in NYC, Totonno's is not worth the trip.”
“But don't count on waiting long: our pizza was on the table in 5 minutes flat.”View Less
You are going for food and atmosphere.
Don't forget that this is the 2nd pizza place in NYC! When you arrive, you get all that goes with that if you just stop and take it all in- look on the walls, look in the window.... everything will
remind you of the past. Embrace it as you enjoy some very good pizza.
Here is a photo session I did in Feb 2009 to document it. I have been going for 30 years and I am only 34 years old! I would like to be visiting for many many many more years to come!

Top Notch Pizza. Ah, Totonno's, when are you going to reopen? Pizza has not been the same since you closed....there's nothing like this pizza. Nothing.
Not good at all. Being a native new yorker, you are critical of pizza. I went here because it was always top rated. I was extremely disappointed. The pizza is highly overrated. Floppy, the sauce had no taste. And the one's making the pizza, that's another story. Anyone with a brick oven can make this pizza. It was pretty much dough, canned sauce, and a few chunks of polly'o cheese. Go to DiFara's instead.…
Le sublime sur le sublime produit malaisement un contraste, et l'on a besoin de se reposer de tout, meme du beau. Maybe.. Technical perfection. Worth any and every effort. The margherita and white pies are untoppable. Marry into the Cimineri family. Rent on Neptune Avenue. Name your son Anthony. Write Totonno's into your will.…
Excellet pizza.
My husband and I enjoy pizza, and are frequent customers at John's, Grimaldi's, Di Farra's, and Lombardi's. This was our first time at Totonno's, mainly because it is about 1.5 hour subway trip from
the Upper West Side. We regret now not trying this place earlier: their pizza is fabulous, perhaps the best in New York. The crust is thin and chewy, nicely charred, but not burnt.. The sauce is just the right consistency and sweetness. I particularly enjoyed their homemade mozzarella, which was there in the right amount.
Regarding the service, it was quite slow, but who cares, we were not at a 5* restaurant. Considering that there was no wait for a table, we actually saved some time despite the long subway ride.…
