Nick's Pizza is a beloved Forest Hills spot with cozy vintage vibes, serving up crispy thin-crust pies and calzones, perfect for sharing over a cold beer.
"Nick’s Pizza is somewhere you should eat at least once, and if you’re seeing a show at Forest Hills Stadium, you don’t really have an excuse to not come here. It’s pretty much an ideal neighborhood pizza parlor with vinyl booths, black-and-white photos on the walls, and some very good pizza with crispy crust and fresh mozzarella. We’re also big fans of the calzone, and we suggest you get one to accompany your pizza." - hannah albertine, bryan kim, matt tervooren
"The charred, thin-crust pies at this neighborhood spot in Forest Hills are big, but even with oily pepperoni cups that cover about 80% of the surface, the pizzas are light snacks compared to the calzones. You’d be happy with either, but if you have roommates or empty fridge space, order both by calling the restaurant at 212 987-5700." - team infatuation
"Founded in 1993, this family-owned pizzeria is famous for their cannolis, thin-crust pies, homemade sausages and meatballs. Nick’s Pizza is a neighborhood favorite, with its charming environment and decor and plenty of seating for small groups. Dine in or grab a pie to go. Many movies have been shot on location here!" - Rachel Kaminetzky & Nicole David
"We can easily envision a lifetime movie that ends with a touching scene of a father-daughter duo sharing a pepperoni pie at Nick’s Pizza in Forest Hills. We’d see them sitting in a blue booth with a formica table, while a wall clock ticks to signify the passage of time. Let these fictional characters be an example to you and all of your family members. Nick’s makes excellent thin (and large) pies, but the crispy calzone might be better - it looks like a massive grilled cheese sandwich." - Hannah Albertine, Bryan Kim, Matt Tervooren
"Nick’s is a neighborhood spot with formica tables and vinyl booths, and serves crispy thin-crust pies topped with fresh mozzarella. You can also get flattened calzones that are sort of like big grilled cheese sandwiches, and you definitely want one of those in addition to your pizza. They don’t do slices, so plan to share everything with a few other people." - hannah albertine, nikko duren, bryan kim, matt tervooren
