$1 per slice
$8 for an 18 inch pie
Not a bad deal! I was in there for no more than 1 minute, and it was only that long because I wanted to put some pepper/Parmesan cheese on it.

If you like really cooked pizza, this isn't for you. It's very doughy and soft. Not a crispy or burnt part of it.
Not much seating/ table space so I suggest taking it to go
I mean it's 99 cent pizza. What they lack in ambiance, customer service, selection, etc. they make up for in delicious, quick, convenient 99 cent pizza.
What do you say? You get what you pay for. $5.50 for 4 slices of cheese pizzas, a bottle of water, and a can of soda.
I didn't land NYC until a quarter after 11pm and this was the only place that was open when I finally settled into the hotel. If this "pizza" was considered cheesy bread, it would be alright. The tomato sauce was nonexistent and there was not much cheese on the pizza. However, the thin crust was lightly crispy and was pretty tasty.
One star for late hours of operation, one star for the crust, and one star for the nice employee who reminded impatient New Yorkers behind me that early bird gets the worm. A few guys behind me kept throwing dollar bills at the employee and demanded a slice of pizza, but he stood his ground and calmed them down. Being a small woman like myself, people sometimes act as if they don't see you and I really appreciated the employee for that.
Thin and crispy pizza. The crust could use work but it passes for an okay slice. The cheese is gooey and there isn't much of it but hey a dollar a slice. Kind of a small slice also. But I like.
I'm sure the recipe for the pizza is the same for the other 99 Cent Fresh Pizza places but I think how you enjoy your slice is based on the particular pie and when you get it. Maybe I just got my slice at the right timing and/or from the right pie.
I also like that they have a variety of sodas.
No like for no restroom and no seating.

But I still enjoyed my quick snack of a slice.
This pizza place was ok, BUT the service convinced me that I should pay at least $1.25 for my slices. The staff was really rude, slow and kept trying to make us wait although we had arrived before others.
Apparently we didn't see the imaginary sign that said line up here. So we were punished with longer wait. When we called this to their attention they got upset. How are you upset when you are making me hangry?!??!?!!?
Pizza's good and cheap. Perfect cheap lunch or late night snack. $2.75 for two slices & a soda…Unheard of for midtown NYC; right on Lex!
Cannot beat the value and quality isn't bad.
It is what it is – $1 slices and a stand up counter.
Popular with tourists, drunks, cheap skates and hungry NY-ers looking for a fast, cheap slice.
For $1, I couldn't really expect much, so I set my expectations very low and I wasn't disappointed. I believe the slice of cheese pizza that I ordered was worth what I paid. There wasn't anything great about the slice, but then again, there wasn't anything bad about it being that it was only $1.
There was the right amount of cheese and tomato sauce, with a somewhat crispy crust, but for the price, it can't be beat.
This certainly isn't 5 star pizza, but at 3:30am it hit the spot. A few friends and I arrived after a night of drinking and dancing. We needed something to fill us up before heading back to the hotel and passed by this joint.
There was a small line and only a few slices left. We ordered a large pepperoni pizza, which was $8. It took about 10 minutes for us to receive our pizza, which seemed like eternity at that point.
We devoured our greasy pie and didn't have any adverse affects, so we considered that a success!
