Guide Review - Restaurant Review: Nick's Pizza in Forest HillsNick's Pizza in Forest Hills is no classic neighborhood pizzeria for slices and cokes, but it serves up the most delicious thin-crust pizza pies to be had in the borough. Forget grease and gobs of cheeseand enjoy the crushed tomatoes and fresh mozzarella that top each pie at Nick's. Fresh, quality ingredients go into everything they serve.
Nick's is comparable to Grimaldi's under the Brooklyn Bridge, but better because it's a neighborhood joint where the staff has the time to serve you right. Head on over for the full treatment on a Saturday afternoon. Take a seat in one of the comfy diner booths and gaze at the historic photos of Forest Hills that cover the walls. A salad of delicious greens is the perfect way to start ($5$8). Move on to a large pie ($13) and add toppings ($2 each)nothing fancy, but classic tastes like real meatballs sliced and whole garlic cloves slightly roasted. The pies come to the table on stainless steel trays fit for royalty. If you like alcohol, wash it all down with beer or wine. When you're done, sit back for an espresso, served with a perfect crema on top and a little licorice libation to drizzle in for the perfect flavor. Starbucks eat your beans out. Nick's Pizza is the real deal and a must for all pizza lovers. Suggested Reading |
