Koronet Pizza

“Koronet pizza has always been an important establishment on the upper west side, so those living in Washington Heights were somewhat skeptical to hear rumors that it was coming up here.”

“The famed Koronet Pizza from Morningside Heights near Columbia University has opened a second location uptown near Columbia Medical Center.”

“They have a high seats if you want to dine-in, but I'd definitely say the places seems to be geared more towards take-out/delivery.”

  1. Besides the size of the pizza, it is your average cheese pizza. What I noticed was the crust was thin and crunchy which was pretty good but I was not a fan of the pizza sauce. Average at best.

  2. I decided to order through Yelp at this place. It all worked out fine.

    I'm here to basically agree with reviews. HUGE slices. I figured a normal length but thicker. This slice was GIANT. Not much flavor in the sauce but I would never say "watery" like every other critical review. It taste like Pizza Hut's marinara sauce. I added red pepper flakes and Italian seasoning and the pizza was fine. VERY greasy. Not like the kind of greasy warn you about in middle school Health class, like chest pain you-can-feel-arteries-closing grease level. Dab it with one of the 40 napkins they give you.

    Due to their being a minimum on delivery orders, I also got a chicken parm hero. Eh. Not much flavor, and at $6.00, not really worth it.

    A great pizza slice if you're hungry and want a lot per $. The delivery man was friendly.

  3. Just like its big sister downtown, the Koronet in WaHi will give you a slice the size of an infant for $3, and you'll be full for the rest of the day.

    God is good.

  4. I had forgot all about this pizzeria. I used to frequent it a many times after coming out of a bar on broadway. So fast forward to now. I was driving up broadway and it caught my eye. So many memories of their slices so i had to get one. It wasnt crowded which was a surprise and the order never takes along time because the pizza's are already made.

    I enjoyed it. I think they take joy out of making pizza slices that big. And us the customers are not complaining one bit.

    Loved it and whenever im up this way i will always get a slice.

  5. Huge slices of pizza for $3.  This isn't cream of the crop, but what for what it is, it's really good.  Extra toppings are $1.  Good cheap and fast meal.

  6. Been here once and had take out once. Not large slices, GINORMOUS slices (how did spell check not flag that one?) When a regular size slice in Westchester is $2.50 give or take and these are $3, it's got to be the deal of a lifetime.

    The place is small with a counter and one or two tables, easy to fill up with the locals. But if you're in the neighborhood and want a REALLY large slice, stop by and bring your appetite.

    Oh, BTW, the place was clean but I had to sit near the oven on a hot, steamy afternoon. Not pleasant, but I managed 😉

  7. I love you. 3$ for a slice that is bigger than my face. If I'm getting delivery pizza then this is definitely the option of choice.

  8. It's four hours later, and I still have dry mouth. You know from my reviews that this is one of the repeated things I go nuts about (nuts in the bad way).

    It's hurtful to write this because I thought the Koronet expansion into Washington Heights was a chance at redemption. As you know, I've come to call the UWS location KoroNOT because it disappoints either by being overly greasy/salted or through ridiculous wait times in an underventilated and crammed space. There are no queuing and wait problems here, and it's a good slice with superb P2P (Price to Portions) ratio. But a giant slice two times the size of your head is just a gimmick without quality. Taste is fantastic at first but then you see canola oil dripping down your hand, then drymouth for hours after. It's the pizza slice as trojan horse. And instant flavor via salt is the recipe of scoundrels.

    This is three strikes for Koronet within a year. Fool me once…
