Grace BarrMay 19, 2018Vodka pizza / supreme pizza 😊 sausage Ragu was a true al dente and was delicious!
Charlotte DunneNovember 22, 2017Cozy joint, lovely staff. Tie Dye pizza is a classic but don’t forget to try the meatballs! Do yourself a favour and come hungry
Carlos KeyesApril 19, 2016Best Eggplant Parm I've had. Incredible toasted bun and side plate of mixed greens. Rubirosa simply did a draw up jumper right in Parm's facial.
Elif ArdenMay 21, 2016A very small, dark and crowded restaurant, but serves delicious pizzas of the manhattan. As a tourist I tried 7 best pizza restaurants, rubirosa is the yummiest👌👌👌
Village VoiceMarch 5, 2014Village Voice is proud to welcome Rubirosa to the 2014 Choice Eats food fest! http://bit.ly/1cRzdNV. Their delicious thin-crust pizza will remind you what pizza should always taste like.
Everyone raves about the Vodka pizza, but the Tie Dye is the same thing PLUS PESTO!
Kartik SathappanSeptember 2, 2016The crust is crispy and delicious. Also, make sure you get sausage- best I've ever had on pizza.
prima filiMay 13, 2015Nice place, attentive staff, pizza was yummy although the gluten free base is slightly different from the traditional pizza base but still good.
Pei 👻 WenApril 29, 2016The vodka slice was the best $4 I've spent here in New York. How did they make the crust so thin and sauce so perfect?
Felipe MinellaSeptember 24, 2013This cozy, vintagey-mellow SoHo spot serves traditional thin crust slices until 5pm (as opposed to the whole pie). Make sure you try the vodka slice!
People rave about the pizza but my favorites are the squid ink seafood pasta and brick chicken
Cody ChapmanJanuary 14, 2022Order pizza. This is a pizza joint. Eat pies. Pies is the fire. Everything else is the meh.
The Corcoran GroupJune 24, 2011The thin-crust pizza is delicious and the staff are gorgeous. But come here for their Italian-inspired cocktails – an Amaretto Sour, a Black Manhattan or a Porfiro Flip.
Vishal ShahMay 12, 2017Definitely try the Rubirosa Supreme! Also, they have a separate gluten-free menu including pizza and more.
If you're a party of two, get a small vodka pizza (+ pepperoni) and a small spaghetti with meatballs. Share both, and you'll probably have 1 slice each to take home. Perfect.
Andrea HartmanFebruary 12, 2016Ahhmazing!!!! At the suggestion of the bartender, I had the spaghetti & meatballs (over pizza), and it was the best I've had since Italy!
Mark HarbordAugust 5, 2018Great atmosphere with a hip vibe, really friendly and helpful staff and grrrreat pizza!!!
Well worth the wait - excellent Italian food and warm atmosphere. The Spaghetti alla Chitarra was amazing :)
Enryqwe LopesJune 30, 2019The best pizza 🍕 I ever ate. Sorry secret pizza in Vegas you aren’t my pizza king anymore
Lillian LinDecember 2, 2012Absolutely must get the French toast here. Best one I've ever had in my life so far... Fluffy, amazingly complex tasting cream, and custom made in a star shape!
Halstead PropertyJanuary 27, 2012Bring the family or a big group of friends to this Italian spot in Nolita, the portions are huge and sharing is mandatory. The vodka sauce might be the best in the city!
One of the top three pizza restaurants in nyc. Get the vodka pizza...you won't regret it
Annie MorganFebruary 17, 2016The perfect order to share: Rubirosa salad, Orecchiette pasta with lamb ragu, Ti-Dye pizza.
Jole PJuly 19, 2019AMAZING pizzas to share. Small space though so best to make a reservation or not go with a party bigger than 2
Rubirosa is a contender for best pizza in Manhattan. If you've never had it before, probably because you're a tourist, get the Vodka pie. Forget all the other pizza places in Little Italy because they- The Tastes that Make the CityJanuary 28, 2015The vodka pizza is the best pizza in NYC, making our list of "The Tastes That Make the City: NYC Edition."

Lucas LinuxSeptember 2, 2017We had the rigatoni, the charcuterie and a pizza. Everything was super delicious and the staff was super nice. Absolutely recommendable!!!
Kate FurmanMarch 21, 2015You can get half and half small pizzas. Don't miss the pastas or Brussels sprouts either.
Bradley LangermanMay 10, 2012Pepperoni pizzas with green bell peppers; white onions; black olives; red bell peppers; pineapples; Canadian Bacon; sausage; pepperonis; meatballs; tomato sauce; mozzarella cheeses is yummy.- Matt RosenJune 22, 2020Always enjoy the tie dye & vodka sauce pizza, cacio e Pepe pasta, and meatballs - some times all in one order :)
- Grab 3 friends, everyone choose an option to split on 2 large pizzas and try 1 slice of each flavour. Love Supreme and Vodka.
WIRED StoreNovember 27, 2012We agree with Time Out New York, the vodka pizza is off the hook. After scarfing down some za be sure to visit the WIRED Store at 583 Broadway!
Dina A.August 19, 2015Classic pizza is amazing. Eggplant pasta special was INCREDIBLE. arugula salad was eh, nothing special, but their pizza and pasta most definitely are special.
Nash AlsJune 29, 2017Classic margherita pizza 🍕, outstanding tomato sauce and the crust were perfect.. you cant go wrong here !!
HashtagNYUApril 6, 2016This restaurant hands down has some of the best (and priciest) slices in town. But def worth every penny!
Ben FlaccusSeptember 19, 2011I don't know how they manage to make thin crust pizza stay crunchy and never soggy. But they do. And the result is amazing. Sausage & Broccoli Rabe and Mushroom are my favorites so far.
Paulina MichalskaSeptember 22, 2016Slightly overpriced, but the vodka pizza was delicious. The tomato sauce was really something, totally worth trying.
Charley ToddJune 26, 2015One of my favorite pizza places in the city. The atmosphere is hip and cozy and the food delicious. Pesto pizza 👌
Am yet to have a meal I didn't like here. Tie-dye pizza for the win. But seriously can't go wrong
Risotto is great here! Of course, the pizza is also a no-brainer. One of my favorite Italian restaurants in NYC.
Jenkin A.September 4, 2016Wow. This place is the best. There's this eggplant dish with cheese and tomatoes all baked. It's so damn good
A useful tip: They serve by the slice for lunch (but not for dinner). The fresca is my go-to here. So simple, but delicious.
Ingvild M. PlosivNovember 23, 2014Oh yes! The pizza at this place, you won't believe how good it is. I literally want to fly back to New York to have this pizza.
محمد السجاNovember 11, 2014I think the BiZZa is efry wooow esbecially the classic one. Order the mozarella sticks because the wow is also there. Yes, siiiir.
Rubirosa never disappoints so you can order about anything and it'll be delicious. Make sure you order the vodka pizza and a side of the meatballs!
Gansevoort Hotel GroupJanuary 31, 2011One of the newest best restaurants to hit NoLiTa. Order up the rice balls with fontina and proscuitto, the lasagna, and the bianca pizza for a truly wonderful meal in a very ambient restaurant.
