Il Gusto Pizza was founded by the Proto family, who brought their lifelong love of pizza-making from New York to open this Manhattan pizzeria. We still use the original dough recipe passed down from generations, making each pie with care and the highest quality ingredients.
Our pizzas are never rushed - we let the dough proof properly and cook each pie to perfection in our stone deck ovens. We source ingredients like tomato sauce and mozzarella from the best local NYC purveyors to craft an authentic slice you’ll love.
We are a welcoming neighborhood spot in the East Village, a place to gather with friends and family over amazing food. Our cozy shop has a casual atmosphere where you can enjoy a cold beer and a hot slice at the counter or relax in our dining area.
We pride ourselves on being a beloved Manhattan pizzeria, serving up piping hot, fresh pizzas, heroes, pasta, salads, and more, made just how you like it.
Whether you’re joining us for lunch, dinner, or takeout, our friendly staff provides excellent service that keeps our NYC customers returning.
