Reviews for Philomena's Pizza in Queens, NY
Best pizza I?ve had in New York is at Philomena?s Sunnyside Queens. It?s better than Joes, NY Pizza Suprema, and Prince St?. I... ordered the cheese, square, and Tiramisu. All were phenomenal! Dave, who is the owner, is so passionate about making pizza thathis energy is contagious. This picture is taken with the owner of Philomena?s Sunnyside Queens (on the way to Citi Field on thesubway 40th Street). The pizza blew away all of the big tourist locations in NYC. Check the hours because it?s mostly an eveningpizza joint, open after 4pm. Read more
I won't be able to call them the best pizza place in queens but I can say that they are one of the good ones for sure.Their... pizza crust is extremely thin,crusty ???? ????. Square pizza wasn't great at all. Personal pies were good. If the quality oftheir ingredients are one level up I would definitely say they are the best But I will order from them moving forward for sure Read more
This place has simply broken my expectations of what a great pizza slice or pie should be. I am just sad I only found this place... through a friend after moving out of state! It's worth it - no amount of words will accurately describe how good it is. Give ita chance and fall in love! Read more
Philomena's was always at the top of the list, but when it was getting hard to actually get a pizza delivers they fell a few... notches. UNTIL TONIGHT! They are now only offering personal pizza. I was hesitant at first, but of course this so brilliant!People who live in NYC usual only need a personal sized pizza! And so, so, soooo good! Thanks Philomena?s!! Read more
Really wanted to like this after hearing endless hype. The second coming of great pizza . Been following on Instragram forever... and was in the area ( I?m originally from Forest hills ) so wanted to see how this stacked up. I understand it?s hard times andsuch but they were not open at the posted times after 4pm. I didn?t want to give up on the place so I waited outside. Wasfinally let in by staff , no real apology. There was also no pizza available either. Once again a Friday! The pizza somethingwas very lacking , ingredients felt fresh but less then the sum of their parts. I get the lack of staff and busy but no one wasin the place. Feel like this place is hyped as many new pizza places are as NY is desperate for the good old days of good pizza.I believe a good blogger was in before they opened hence why they weren?t open at 4. The owner was fawning over this person andI barely got a sorry for the trouble. This was a one and done. Many pies out there . A fail all around. Read more
Finally found a good pizza place in Sunnyside! There are a couple that are okay but we wanted something better than just okay.... Philomena?s is great pizza. The dough is so tasty because they ferment it. We bought a NY pie with mushrooms and half pepperoniand it was delicious. We reheated leftover later and it was just as good. Heard good things about the personal pies so we?ll betrying that next time as well. Read more
This is the best pizza in Sunnyside, Queens. The staff upfront was super helpful and everything he suggested was excellent. Had... two personal pizzas and a couple of the Sicilian sodas. Read more
