Pizza Palace

Money hungry?? Maybe you might have noticed the area being upscaled? Did you ever consider the effect of large rent increases that each lease brings in an upscaled area, especially on a prime corner? So what would YOU have done differently, dealing with the challenges of rising rents, meeting payroll, turning a profit, etc. I will miss Jack and the guys and wish them all buona fortuna. Will also miss their great gyro platter I came in from south Brooklyn for. T from Brooklyn.

This place is CLOSED as of yesterday, August 7, 2022. I just called today for delivery, a guy answered and said they closed yesterday. NO MORE FOOD. NO MORE DELIVERIES. Was a good place for years since I first went in there as a toddler in 1979. The last 10-15 years though their price raises were ridiculous. I remember paying about 0.85 cents for a slice in 1987 after school to $4.50 last week. Honestly, inflation does NOT cover that. Most Ditmars Astoria people were disgusted by how our hometown pizzeria we grew up with were trying to rob the very people that supported and loved them. They thought they could take advantage of their history here. They became money hungry and that was very sad to see. I feel bad for the cooks there. But in the long run, I suppose it’s not a surprise that they closed. They had it coming.

Pizza Palace serves a consistently great quality of pizza as well as a variety of other dining options. They serve-up truly New York-style and high-quality kinds of pizza that's also well-fit for the Greek-life of Astoria. The staff is very friendly and willing to help and accommodate in any way they can. I'd recommend this pizza joint to anyone stomping around this turf.
