Why is 99c pizza is not proper NY slice? That's what NY is. It's part of the NYC culture.


Part of NYC culture is having strongly held opinions about pizza, so I think it's a perfectly reasonable statement to make. Moreover, I recently had the slice from this very 2 Bros the other day at a meetup, and was vastly underwhelmed. The sauce was meh, the cheese was gummy, but the worst part of the experience was that the slice was just undercooked - the crust simply wasn't crisp. It's super popular, and for 99 cents, a good value and still better pizza than you can get anywhere else in the world, but quality-wise, Abitino's and Famiglia both blow it out of the water, and that's saying nothing of your average independent neighbourhood pizzeria.


2 bros is good for what it represents - $1 pizza. It's good/decent when it's hot, but it's unappetizing once it cools down.
