Really good food. Service was great!! No draft beers but was able to get Carona bottles so no big deal. The burgers are obviously hand made and not frozen which was a Huge bonus and they were delicious!! Pizza was excellent and Prices are really reasonable. Highly recommended!!

Big Nick's does it big all day and night. You couldn't stop this Zzah train with a bigger name in the pizza game. They do slices the New York City right way, with quality ingredients and that pure water that makes your taste buds tingle. This is mostly definitely a quality place to get a quality slice.

Over all pretty good. Burger is really good! Pizza is pretty good (not the best in the area but certainly not the worst) Fries were soggy :/ Had only been to Big Nicks once and never tried the famous burger. It lived up to most of the hype! It’s pretty good! Definitely a diner burger with a bit of grease but the meat itself is awesome! When I come back, the burger will bring be here before anything else (though still a lot to try) The pizza was pretty good. Takes a few mins to get your food but they make it fresh to order(even the jumbo slices) and overall was a good slice of pizza. If you’re looking for a good slice of NY zza, this will certainly satisfy! The worst part was that the fries were soggy and soft. Not great. Big Nick wouldn’t eat those fries...I wouldn’t either if I were you.

Great pizza shop. But more than pizza - chicken parmajean with steak fries is superb - a throw back restaurant from the 1970s and 1980s

Oh mate! I had no idea what I was ordering beyond a steak sandwich. This was so delicious and I am so glad we came across this place after a long day at the museum. The food was so tasty and it was good service. Prices are very reasonable in my opinion, I'm a firm believer of you get what you pay for. Based on our meal I'd call it a bargain! Hope to come again soon.

Really liked this place. Feels like New York! There is plenty of room for families. The prices are reasonable. The portions are good. You can tell they use quality ingredients. We ordered a medium pepperoni pizza and a cheeseburger. The burger had a huge patty. The pizza was awesome. Cheese dripping! Very yummy. Oh, and the staff was friendly.

Great little hidden gem that's been around since the early 1960s. Came here to grab a bite with friends before catching a movie nearby. It's got a good variety of pizzas and burgers as well as other non-fast food and non-finger food entrees. As my first time here, I chose the bacon cheeseburger and added avocado on top, meat is medium cooked. A very beautiful and delicious burger. The edges of the meat was crunchy, the middle cooked as I had requested, the bacon was perfect, not too hard or floppy or salty, the buns were lightly toasted and held everything together very well and without things crumbling or falling to pieces with each bite. Their regular fries are giant sized yet surprisingly good in that it was crunchy on all sides and soft inside, but the ratio between crunchy and soft was well controlled that it does not get boring and dry. You can also request your pickles on the side which were either whole or cut in half, not single slices. These were excellent pickles, crunchy and not overtly sour. The service was also very much appreciated as our server was very nice, friendly and attentive. When another friend meet up with us in the middle of our meal, the waitress offered to seat us at a bigger table even though the newcomer insisted on not going through the trouble. For all these reasons, I am definitely returning and also try their pizzas and that sumo burger (1 pound meat).

The ultimate greasy spoon! Came here late on a Saturday night - there were a few tables open. We had a large group (6) and were seated easily. There are a ton of options on the menu - we had the best luck with the pizza & burgers (hence their name!). We ordered a pepperoni pizza for the table and everyone loved it. I tried the feta burger - just a regular burger with feta instead of American. Still, it was pretty good. The curly fries were also good. This place isn't fancy - the service was good but don't come here expecting the kindest & cleanest place in NYC. Also, the "cheesecake" was pretty bad. Chalky & tasteless - it was a disservice to the term "NY Style". Everything else, however, was as good as expected. I appreciate that they're open late - I had a good dine in experience, but your best bet may be carryout.
