Not much variety here. They only have items like calzones, knots and of course a limited variety of pizza slices. What pizza place doesn't even have pinwheels? There wasn't much to choose from. However, I ended up getting the broccoli and grilled chicken slice. It was almost $5 which I thought was a bit much. But that's city pizza prices I suppose. I felt very rushed with my order (even though the place was empty) and the guys working there were ignoring the customers in line. Nothing special about this place.
I love how I can get thin slice pizza here! Most of the pizza nowadays are thick and loaded with so much topping that they fall onto the plate. That's great but some days I'm looking for a thin slice with a soft crunch accompanying my bites. That's when I come here.
Compared to other pizza joints, Famiglia is clean and never too crowded. I like how they have no minimum for a credit card. However, it's on the pricey side especially since the slices are thinner. I would need 2 slices here to satisfy my hunger here compared to 1 from other places.
The pizza wasn't bad but I've had better. Get the garlic knots. Seriously. Don't even get pizza and just get the garlic knots.
The pizzas here pretty good, on par with a bunch of them located in this area on 2nd Ave. I'm always shocked by the price of a slice of pizza here. $3.50 for a regular slice and almost $5 for a specialty slice with tax. I was used to $1 slices where I came from. Yeesh! But they do put it in the oven for you once you order and they are very good. The pepperoni is dripping with oil. But honestly, I'd rather have a good oily pizza than a bland non-oily one.
This place has solid, decent pizza, especially considering its part of a chain. Its nothing special though. The crust is doughy and on the thicker side. They have really good garlic knots.
Ordered a cheese pie last night for delivery. Came within about 25 minutes, was hot, and delivery guy was nice. Although I'm more of a thin crust fan, this normal, average NY pizza was fine. It was not too greasy which was good, but still had a nice flavor. Good in a pinch!
Famiglia has decent sized pizza slices and the good quality is proportional to the price. Famiglia ($2.50 for a slice) is better than the $1 slice places that I think use discarded candle wax for cheese. The neighborhood is pricey, a "value meal" at the McDonald's across the street is $9 so Famiglia is an easy choice for cheap lunch.
