Best New York style pizza I have ever tried. I to fabulous. Nothing compares. Service is friendly. I love their staff. Great people. Definitely call in your order, wait time varies so I always call in now. Restaurant recommends it too. Don't waste your time anywhere else, just come here and be super happy. We always get either pepperoni or the margherita, can't go wrong with either.

Man, I miss this place. Can definitely par with legit NYC joints. Y'all South Bay peeps should be thankful and appreciate that you can have a list of good pizza parlors within a short reach, including this one. Good job, Slice -

I love this pizza. I usually come for lunch to get two slices and a drink. The service is quick and the pizza is high quality. I liked the touch of New York memorabilia all around, very cool. The pizza is great, has lots of flavor, even the plain cheese slice is incredible. Thanks for serving quality pizza!

Tucked away in the heart of San Jose, ASONY brings a taste of New York City's vibrant pizza culture to the West Coast. From the moment you step inside, the atmosphere transports you straight to the Big Apple, with its cool NYC-themed vinyls adorning the walls, creating a vibe that screams classic New York. The true star here is the pizza. The menu offers a range of quintessential New York-style pizzas, from the classic Margherita to the hearty Meat Lovers and the innovative Fancy White pie with basil and a balsamic reduction. Each slice boasts a perfect balance of thin, crispy crust, tangy tomato sauce, and a generous layer of gooey, melted cheese. But ASONY doesn't just stop at pizza. Their garlic knots are a must-try, perfectly couple with Garlic Olive Oil (GOO) which is packed with garlic goodness. The house salad is refreshingly crisp, providing a perfect counterbalance to the rich pizzas. We also tried the veggie stromboli, which was a delightful combination of fresh vegetables and melted cheese, all wrapped in a perfectly baked crust. In summary, ASONY is more than just a pizza place--it's a slice of New York right in the Bay Area. The combination of authentic NYC vibes, delicious pizza, and a welcoming interior makes it a standout destination for anyone craving a genuine New York pizza experience.

Came on a Friday around 6:30 PM +++++ AMBIANCE +++++ This is a small place with bar/counter seating in one corner, there's a small fridge with drinks and the register. The walls are COVERED in New York paraphernalia. This place can get really busy! There is some outdoor seating, but not much! Approximately 4-5 tables! +++++ SERVICE +++++ You wait in line and then when you get to the register they ask what you want. My husband walked in and it was really crowded. When he opened the door, someone was coming out so he held it open for them. While he was holding open the door for another patron, the man behind the register yelled at my husband, "you're in or your out! keep the door closed!" This seemed REALLY unnecessarily rude....The line was at the door! People are going in and out, its normal that the door is opened a lot. When my husband got to the register, we told the man who yelled at him we wanted slices. A small Asian lady handled our slices. The slices aren't labeled, my husband asked if they have certain pies. The man at the register was unfriendly and he said, "we don't have that one, you can't order that. You have to pick what's there," My husband was attempting to, but because the pizzas weren't labeled he wasn't sure what was what. Were we supposed to ask him what was on each pizza there to know what we want? I guess so... It was pretty frustrating. This man had it out for my husband since he laid eyes on him. The asian lady was nice though and she asked my husband which specific slice he wanted of the flavor he chose like middle piece or corner piece etc. This man was generally unfriendly to most people who walked in, sigh. My husband was feeling generous and said maybe the man was giving us the full NYC experience because apparently this type of behavior is normal in NYC. I'm not sure if this is true. +++++ FOOD +++++ $6.00-7.50 a slice. They heat all the slices so they are piping hot when you get them! // SICILIAN MEATLOVER THIS WAS MY FAVORITE I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS CRUST. OH MY GOODNESS THICK BREADY CRUST. CHEESE WAS GOOEY! I wish there was more meat, but WOW. Delicious! I WILL GET THIS ONE AGAIN. // MUNCHIE LUNCHIE This was spicy and good, but I preferred the Sicilian Meatlover more. // THE CITY or TIMES SQUARE? We don't know, he didn't tell us. This tasted similar to the munchie lunchie, the toppings kind of all merge into one. // ASONY Margarita This had a nice freshness, I wish there was more basil. I suggest getting two pizzas with very different flavors or else they might just end up tasting very similar. You will crave a soda to cut the grease. Ultimately, the pizzas are thin and foldable and pretty yummy. +++++ OVERALL +++++ I would give it 4.5* but the man at the register was so rude, I have to dock it to 3.5* but I will round up because Yelp doesn't do half stars. I will be back, but I will try the other items like the calzone or stromboli.

Came here on a Sunday night around 9:15pm and there was just a few people waiting on their pizza. The inside is very unique, I've never been to New York but everything inside makes you feel like you're in NY from the metro cards, to the subway signs, pictures of NY legends and so forth. Anyways, I ordered the pepperoni pizza and it was pretty good. The flavor is good, not too oily or stale it tasted like a good pepperoni pizza. I would say the pizza is pretty thin. My girlfriend ordered the margherita pizza and she said it was good but she preferred the pepperoni and I agreed. we both ordered the garlic knots and those were really good. Super buttery, garlicy, and the bun was soft it just soaked it all up. I think the price of a slice was about $7 I'm not too sure. I would definitely get two slices for myself next time as well. Overall, decent pizza spot!

Came here on a Tuesday night around 9pm so there was hardly a wait time to get our food. My wife had the calzone and I got a personal 10" pep. I've had deep dish in Chicago, thin crust in Rome, and I must say this is one of my favorite spots in San Jose. The price is a bit high in my opinion but blame Uncle Sam. Hopefully the price drops for everything once Trump gets re-elected. They have patio seating which was nice on this warm summer evening. Will definitely be back. For a personal 10", calzone, 2 ranch cups, and a root beer, I paid about $33.

Something about New York style pizza never fails to disappoint me. The high quality taste of it along with the cheesey pull, the savory salty toppings, makes it superior to other pizzas I've ever eaten. If you are ever in New York and grab a slice of these kinds of pizza, you will understand. Inside you will get a glimpse of what New York would look like as you immerse yourself with their decor on their wall. But to have something in the Bay that's just as equivalent compared to New York is amazing to me. Slice of New York has always been on my bucket list and I can finally cross it off. I don't particularly remember the pizzas that we ordered, but all I know was that we enjoyed each and every bite of it. It was hot, warm, cheesey, and the taste was enjoyable with each bite. Taste test definitely passes, but I did wish that the bottom of the crust was a little crispier. I will say that this slice is quite floppy, and the toppings will definitely fall off including the cheese if you try to hold it at an angle. But that doesn't faze me too much. Service was very friendly and they were very efficient with orders, there also isn't a lot of seating here either so you may need to take your pizzas to-go. But definitely come and eat the food here fresh and get a taste of a NY style pizza!~

Came on Saturday around 9:15 PM - there were three other people ahead of us. It was tasty and had the look and crust of a New York slice! The pepperoni was really mild - think I'll definitely get a side of hot honey next time. I also thought it wasn't saucy enough and the middle of the pizza was really droopy and doughy, so it was a mission to ensure no oil got onto my clothes while eating. Overall, it was a fun experience to go inside and I'd return, but I would get takeout and reheat it in an air fryer so the slice has more structural integrity and has the ability to fold in half - this would enhance my experience. Service was quick and efficient and the ambience is cozy - I loved all the New York decorations inside. :)
