Best Pizza in Manhattan

Manhattan is where American pizza started.

Lombardi's opened on Spring Street in 1905, and the trade spread out from those few blocks. Today you've got coal ovens downtown, wood-fired rooms that opened in the last twenty years, and counter slices for people who never sit down. What Manhattan does best is the slice built for someone in a hurry: thin, foldable, eaten standing up. The West Village and the East Village have the most places worth crossing town for.
