    there’s just nothing wrong with goodfellas… we love the margarita but you also can’t go wrong with the Sicilian. the crust is fantastic & it’s one of the best deals in LIC. 2 cheese pieces + a coke for $5.99. i will say it’s definitely a pick-up and go type of place… it’s really just a window to order and one table outside. also the staff is super friendly! i’ve always had a good experience.

    Years ago on a business trip to New York I happened to eat at this place, and in the years since I haven’t found a better pizza place in New York. I was on another business trip recently and was nearby so I thought I’d stop by to see if it was still just as good, and yes, yes it was. I highly recommend it. The pepperoni pizza and garlic knots were fantastic, and the value is incredible!

    Food is good but they need to learn how to be more respectful towards customers. I asked for a simple fresh pizza and they gave so much attitude and said that they will not make a fresh pizza and that I had to take one from the display that’s been out for God knows how long. They just sit on their phones until there’s actual customers at their window. Also don’t come here expecting to have somewhere to sit. That is no such thing here Lol

    From a tourist that came all the way from São Paulo, I must say I'm impressed. A very small place with a few workers that deliver an amazing pizza and a very nice service. The tables are on the sidewalk, but that isn't a problem for me. It even adds a bit more charm, to be honest.

    Such a delightful place to get pizza! When ever I am in LIC, I have to get something!! Food is always fresh and the people there are really nice, makes such a difference when people actually care about their customers. Definitely recommend coming here!

    Ehh the pizza was kind of old. It was good alright. Pizza is my favorite food though so I was disappointed. Service was amazing I loved the lady that gave me my food.

    Goodfellas is always appreciated in any neighborhood in NY. They do pizza, and they do it well! Small storefront, but big cheese slices, and very fresh pies coming out of the oven. Friendly window counter service, and the menu is outside, easy to view! A bunch of chairs and tables outfront for enjoying your pizza right away!

    This place is a must-try. Been wanting to visit for a long but since they don’t open on the weekend (they’re saving the weekends for family time which is so sweet), I finally visited during the weekdays. And you would not be disappointed with whichever pie you pick; they are all delicious. Fresh, full of flavor, and great portion. I got 5 slices of different flavors and loved them all. Will definitely come here more regularly.

    Truly incredible pizza. I cant believe Ive been living 2 blocks away from this place for 5 years and never gave it at try. Its really must have pizza and will be making up for the lost times. The cheese is perfect. The Sicilian which was recommend to me is as fluffy and light as can be. They have few tables outside to sit and enjoy the pizza

    Good pizza, thin crust. Not very greasy but that depends on the type of slice. For a plain slice I was very happy with the taste. I find my self coming back here a few times during the month.

    GoodFellas Pizza is a great place to get a reasonably priced lunch or dinner. We ordered a pepperoni pizza and it was served quickly and tasted amazing. The staff was friendly and was quick to greet us and take our order and answering all our questions plus they welcomed us to the neighborhood. We look forward to going back!

    Been wanting to try this place for a long time and it did not disappoint! Delicious slices, friendly service, and incredible prices. I only wish it were open on weekends! Deep dish is good, NY style margherita is good, you really can’t go wrong here!

    Our hotel was a couple of minutes from this place. We stayed in NYC for 4 days and ate at Goodfella’s 3 times. It is GOOD. Rich in cheese and flavour, amazing crust and sauce too. A winning trifecta. Reasonable prices as well. Recommend!

    I love the pizza so much that the aroma tempts me to get another couple of slices every time I pass by the block! Both the regular and deep dish style pizzas are delicious. Everything on the menu, from the pizza to the garlic bread and cakes and more, does justice every time. The staff is the best! They make you feel like a family member of theirs. Nothing like great hospitality and great food! Goodfellas keeps my hardcore pizza addiction going!

    By far the best pizza I ever had, think I am ruined for life 😅 I will never be able to enjoy a perfectly made tasty pizza such as Goodfellas Pizza of LIC back at home in Cali. The staff was friendly and AWESOME since my husband left his only means to stay warm on our trip at the tables outside their restaurant and they held onto it for us overnight until we can retrieve it the next day. His sweater still has the sweet aroma of the Goodfellas that he refuses to wash it until the smell is worn out 🤣 We loved this restaurant and can’t wait to go back on our next NYC trip. Try the margarita pizza, to die for!!

    Top notch slices for the area, to the point that it's a favorite among the building staff. The two cheese and a soda deal is great, but the margherita slice is the absolute best. Nice chunks of tomato in the sauce, full and flavorful.

    Great pizza and great service. We went quite late so there wasn't any slices left that we wanted - so we ended up getting a full pizza takeaway and it didn't disappoint. Family run business and the owners are great.

    Always good to find a genuine NYC pizza place that taste perfect. The staff is pleasant and respectful and they still offer 2 slices and a soda for 6 bucks. I highly recommend.

    Okay let me tell you how amazing an experience it was. I am a member of a trip2 crew (we are from Poland) and this pizza place is realy tasty. It was such a chilly day and they let me go inside to await the dine. Have I not been from such a far land I would be going there each day. Keep up the good work. Peace!

    This Pizza is always so delicious, hot and tasty! I’ve NEVER had a batch! Not to mention the staff is also warm and friendly to customers- Francesca is a sweetheart ! If you’re considering good neighborhood pizza, don’t look further, this is IT!

    While staying nearby hotel, I tried pizza twice and both were great. My recommended one is supreme😄

  • 3/5 Adam R. 3 years ago on Google
    Recently moved to LIC, looking for a new go to pizza spot. Tried Goodfellas because I have it saved, and has great reviews! Got a 14in Pepperoni Pie. Pizza was ok, biggest issue was that the dough was not consistent throughout. Some slices were very thick and some were extremely thin. It also was very light on the sauce and needed salt, but that's more of a personal preference. Glad I tried it, but not worth the 18 bucks.

  • 5/5 Lisa B. 2 years ago on Google
    Staying in LIC for a short NYC visit, and thought we'd try this place, since it was close to the hotel. OMG! This is quite literally the BEST pie I've ever eaten. We got the Margherita, and it was absolutely delicious. Fresh garlic, basil and tomato...heaps of good mozzarella, hand tossed crust that was perfect NY style...soft under the toppings, but crispy and flavorful around the edge. Right now, it's window-service only, but it's well worth waiting 15 min for your slice of heaven. Highly recommended!! 👌

    Great pizza. Was in town from Texas and I have to say some of the best pizza I've had. The bacon chicken ranch pizza was my favorite. Great group of people running it also. I would highly recommend this place.

  • 2/5 G S. 7 months ago on Google
    Thousands of reviews with 4.7 stars when I viewed it. If this is good pizza, forget about the rest because it was trash. Walk up ordering through this tiny sliding window that the cashier slams shut before you’re done talking. No dine in, no menu descriptions; one slice was thin, one was pan style, really? Greasy pizza, served on a paper plate, stuffed in a paper bag. I had to ask for napkins and my can of soda. She gave me napkins, slammed the window and looked at me. I had to get her attention again to ask for the drink I ordered. Absolutely no customer service skills at all.

    Indoor dining is not an option but sidewalk dining is. Pizza was okay, 2 for 6 deal is good tho. Get the job done.

  • 5/5 Ishrath A. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing food and amazing customer service! I ordered a few pizzas and wings for a get together. The woman I spoke to on the phone was super sweet and told me that the food might take a while because they were so busy but that she'll try her absolute best to get it to me as soon as possible. It came super quick and she called me afterwards to make sure everything went smoothly! The regular wings were SO GOOD! Definitely making this my go to spot!

    In response to your snarky reply which seems to be a godawful habit of yours when it comes to every low review you get due to the fact that you don’t seem to take critical criticism on your service very well, you actually didn’t inform us on not being able to get a fresh pizza instead of the stale pizza on display the first time we arrived simply due to the fact that we initially ordered a whole pie the first time with no issue. The second time you had a horrible attitude because we as customers enjoyed your pizza and wanted to stop by a second time to once again get fresh pizza but this time not as a pie. So the fact that you’re lying is no where near professional. I’m not sure who trained you, but maybe there needs to be someone else in charge so that you guys can improve on your service skills. Not everybody likes stale pizza that sits there all day while flies roam in through your window and contaminate your food and spread bacteria they carry from surfaces they touch all throughout dirty New york. Like I said earlier, you guys stay on your phone until you get customers. I stand by that. The fact that you got upset by the truth shows me everything about the environment of your “job”. We’ve noticed because we walk past you guys frequently even when not buying pizza. No one has to be in human resources to critique your work. A regular civilian can recognize that clearly there’s a lot of improvement that needs to be done in this place to begin with. It’s just common sense. It seems like you’re lacking in that, but don’t worry, we’re here to teach you. We had a lot of experience in our careers to know what’s right from wrong in a work environment, but maybe that’s because we’re not working at raggedy pizza shops around the corner. A regular civilian can recognize that, but like I said, clearly there’s a lot of improvement that needs to be done in this raggedy pizza shop to begin with.
