Paulie Gee's

"Plenty of pizza spots have supporters happy to defend their pies against any others, but few have enough diehards to spark a heated debate about pies on the same menu. Whether you think the Hellboy with spicy soppressata and hot honey or the Cherry Jones with prosciutto and dried bing cherries is best, you can try convincing your friends at sidewalk tables out front any day of the week." - matt tervooren

"The Vegan Pizza Menu "It makes me happy that they have a separate vegan menu instead of relegating the plant-based people to sad marinara pies like most other spots (not that I have anything against a marinara, but dairy-free people deserve cheese too). The Neapolitan-style pizzas are classic and unfussy, with quality ingredients and a chewy, perfect crust. Sharing here is not caring for me, because I could've, and have, eaten an entire pizza here by myself." - brennan carley

"A lot has changed about Greenpoint in the past few years, but Paulie Gee’s is forever. The Neapolitan-style pies here are still great, as is the candlelit, cavernous dining room. If you're planning a casual group dinner, this place should be at the top of your list—there are plenty of vegan pizza options for anyone who doesn't eat dairy. If you just want to get a slice, head to their grab-and-go sibling, Paulie Gee’s Slice Shop, just a couple blocks away. " - bryan kim, neha talreja, will hartman, molly fitzpatrick

"Owner Paul Giannone is known for using creative toppings at this Greenpoint pizzeria favorite. Speciality pizzas like the sopressata honey hellboy, which includes Mike’s Hot Honey for some kick, shouldn’t be missed. Plus, those avoiding dairy can revel in Paulie’s many vegan pizza and dessert options." - Patty Diez

"Paulie Gee’s is our favorite pizza in the entire city and surrounding boroughs. This feels like an empty statement nowadays – but it is true. They have such unique pies with fresh ingredients and the dough is something truly special. After eating it, you’ll understand why people wait. It is absolutely worth it. The interior is dark, dimly lit, and generally loud when it is busy (which is most nights). The owner, Paulie G., walks around greeting patrons, wishing them a good meal. The whole atmosphere is hygge. When you go get the Cherry Jones. You will not regret it." - Milkshake
