  Bland unimpressive pizza that's overpriced because of its reputation. I wouldn't eat here ever again.
  
  I got a margarita pizza, the sauce was very mild and slightly sweet, the cheese was alright, with very little basil added. The crust was well cooked but had a flatness to it. Overall I'd say the pizza is a 3/5 but it's so overpriced. It's better than dirt cheap street pizza you'd expect to pay 2$ a slice for but there's definitely better pizza than this all over NYC.

  Tourist trap. This place was recommended to my by a fellow Italian. Cool authentic place, great back story, very good sauce, don't get me wrong but we paid $75 for a calzone, a small pizza with meatballs, a small salad and two tiny glasses of wine. This is ridiculous even for NYC. Not only that but I changed my order from pepperoni to meatball because the picture on the wall was these huge meatballs and I got these tiny little buggers. Not really what I was hoping for. To be fair, it was good. It was fresh. It was authentic. It was not worth $75

  Lombardi's is very high quality pizza with only a few things that could use improvement. Three problems:
  1)The cheese is a thin and sporadic, I get that this is the old Italian way of making pizza, but I suspect that limited cheese was to keep cost down, at 16.50 for a small pizza I don't thinking having a pie with plenty of cheese is too much to ask.
  2)The sauce is good, but not great, it's sweet but not quite as complex in flavor as I normally enjoy.
  Price - it is expensive. As I said 16.50 for a small pizza that realistically speaking 1 person can finish alone. I'd be more forgiving of this if the pizza was mind blowing as oppose to merely being very good.
  However non of these things are deal breakers, it's still really tasty pizza and definitely worth getting. The service is really good also.
  One note about the toppings, specifically the sweet Italian sausage, I'd recommend it, this is really good sausage and adds tremendously to the flavor, however the sausage is EXTREMELY salty make sure your prepared for that (ie if your going to be walking around the city all day choose another topping).
