| - I have been coming to Toci's for years now. Johnny, the owner, basically knows the whole family and extended family because we all go here. He is seriously one of the nicest guys. As a regular I love to hang at the counter and watch him craft a pie of deliciousness together. When people write these reviews it makes me so mad because they come in and expect some smily-face bs. That's not authentic New York. If you want sunshine and rainbows and crappy food -- go somewhere else. If you want the best damn New York style pizza (authentic not that BS they try to give you at Dominos or Papa John's) and maybe a little New Yorker sass -- this is the place to get it. I know because I have family from New York/New Jersey.
The Food: New York style pizza with great crisp crust, perfect portion of cheese and amazingly robust sauce. Some said it had no sauce -- well if you want to drowned in sauce go to little Caesars cause Toci's delivers a great layer of sauce that doesn't overpower the pie. Some of the family's favorite toppings include sausage, black olive, and meatball. They also can do 6 foot subs which we have had a few times for large family functions, philly cheese steaks, calzones, etc. Everything is amazing. Oh and if you ever want the best cannoli of your life -- get it here. "leave the gun, take the cannoli!"
The Staff: Family owned restaurant with a great guy from back east. Every now and then his daughter and other family help out in the restaurant. They all have a lot of experience making pizza. The owner admits he has had a slice of pizza almost everyday of his life. Also, the owner gives these oddball characters a shot. No, they aren't like the "my pleasure" crew that works at Chic-fil-a, but they know how to make some damn good food.
The Atmosphere: It's a mom & pop restaurant. They have plenty of seating and themed decor that mostly has been gifted. Nice deep booths seat a bigger group of people (about 6 to 8), and also a larger family table that can seat around 20. One tv -- but big deal you should be talking to your family and friends not staring at a tv. This is definitely a good place to have a family meal.
The Service: Another reviewer mentioned, but I will state again -- they are spot on with their timing. Also, I will ask about how much will serve how many when I have a larger group to feed -- also spot on there too. Yes, you may get some smart a** comments if you ask a dumb question, but I love that. I dish it right back while being respectful. I mentioned it above, but the staff is a great bunch of oddballs and they know what they are doing. You basically are family if you're a regular. (which I am)
