My favorite pizza spot. I pass by all the time so maybe I’m biased but the guys are always ON IT and the pizza is fantastic. Generous portions and you get what you pay for! Cheese is decent, but fancier ones are decadent. Mushroom consistently hit the spot, and the upside down and New York style are really tasty too. Place is small, but there’s something kind of rejuvenating about standing next to a stranger waiting for a slice or a pie, and the pizza makers emanate so much respect and play great music (a lot of jazz and old rock) that sometimes these are pretty golden 4 minutes or so. Oh and they have honey! Underrated pizza topping in my opinion. How they keep such high quality on such a trafficked block without losing their cool or slowing down production, I’ll never know. Appreciate you Barata!!

Great pizza (base more on the crispy side), very generous amount of toppings ( pepperoni slice is 90% covered), great prices (5 mostly) and above average slice size. Strongly recommend. Sitting is really limited though (max 5 people). The slices and pies with burrata are slightly more expensive but worth trying. The supreme slice was amazing. They also sell salads and heros.

Hands down the best pizza in the East Village and one of the best in NY in my opinion. Joe’s has NOTHING on Burrata! The Margarita slice is amazing! If you haven’t been ir you have another favorite pizza shop in the area dont walk, RUN to Burrata

I came here twice within just 3 days, because the pizza-by-the-slice is excellent. I highly recommend trying their Burrata Special slice. It comes with large slices of burrata cheese and is delicious. This is a really authentic NY Style pizza place. 2 slices should fill you up nicely. The price is not too expensive and overall great pizza!

This might sound crazy but this little hole in the wall is some of the best pizza in the city. If you’re in East village and want a good classic New York slice, this is your spot. Try the Supreme. Closed Mondays !!

Recently had Burrata pizza for the first time. Was a big fan of Chicken Bacon Ranch slice. Many NYC pizzerias will charge 5/6 dollars for a speciality slice and Burrata is no different. However, the slice you get is hearty and dense. Mine was fresh and felt the quality of ingredients was high. Nice, quick service as well. (Picture doesn’t do the slice justice)
