Ortomare Pizzeria - New York

Pasta was ordinary. Service was distracted. Atmosphere was cozy. Lights could be a little dimmer. Pizza was out of this world. Go for the pizza. It's worth it.

Excellent pizza and drinks. Wife loved the Margherita pie.

I recently tried this pizzeria and was quite impressed. The sauce stood out — excellent flavor. For those on a gluten-free diet, their crust is a real treat; it’s excellent and doesn’t sacrifice flavor or texture. It’s great to find a pizza spot that gets both these elements right. The other dishes on the menu looked excellent, but we only tried the pizza and the caesar salad. The restaurant was cozy and the service was excellent. I took my extended family (9 people) and they didn’t have any trouble handling a crowd that size. I made a reservation on OpenTable and they had everything set-up and waiting. It’s a good think I did, because the place filled up.

I've been wanting to try this restaurant for a while now. I loved the COVID vaccine cocktail and had some great wine options with my dinner. I tried the Salmone al Salmoriglio, which was delicious, and my partner enjoyed the Braciola di Pollo. The staff were very accommodating and were happy to swap out the potatoes for grilled veggies.

Our first visit to this restaurant was unforgettable. The food was skillfully prepared and the service was attentive. We would definitely come back without hesitation.
