Nestled in Greenpoint, Paulie Gee’s Slice Shop is a vibrant, family-friendly pizzeria known for its game-changing sesame-crusted Hellboy pizza drizzled with hot honey.
"Paul Giannone rose to fame with his small collection of pie joints throughout the U.S., but pizza connoisseurs would be remiss to overlook his very good slice spot in Greenpoint, replete with Kool-Aid-colored booths. Expect a New York cheese slice that, on certain days, achieves preternatural heights thanks to an intoxicating, caramelized aroma. But the go-to slice here just might be the Freddy Prince, tomato-and-cheese square slice that boasts a dense crumb and, most importantly, a supremely nutty layer of sesame seeds on the bottom." - Emma Orlow, Eater Staff
"Even the greatest slice places are generally not establishments where you want to stay and hang for a while. That’s what makes Paulie Gee’s Slice Shop different. It’s an order-at-the-counter spot, with a beer and wine bar at the back of the space where you’ll find people posted up eating pizza, watching sports, and playing on a vintage video game console. Unlike the original Paulie Gee’s, this is not Neapolitan-style pizza—it’s classic New York slices and pies (including plenty of vegan options), plus the Sicilian style, sesame-crusted Freddy Prinze, which is the best thing here." - willa moore, bryan kim, neha talreja, arden shore
"Two blocks south of Paulie Gee’s, their slice shop is offering outdoor seating as well. Unlike the Neapolitan-style pies at the original, this spot specializes in classic New York-style slices, as well as a massive upside down Sicilian called the Freddy Prince, which is the best thing here." - matt tervooren
"Paulie Gee’s Slice Shop is now available for pick-up and delivery online. We wouldn’t ever judge you for ordering a single slice for delivery or take-out, but know that there are also full pies available (and plenty of vegan options, too)." - hannah albertine
"The good thing about ordering delivery from slice shops is that you don’t need to commit to an entire pie. This is key at Paulie Gee’s Slice Shop in Greenpoint, not because you won’t want to eat a ton of the pizza here, but because you should try a bunch of different styles. Whatever you go with, make sure the Freddy Prinze Sicilian (vegan optional) and Hellboy are part of your order here." - team infatuation
