LaRustica Pizza is one of New York City's most popular pizzerias. For years, the restaurant has been a fixture in the neighborhood. Curbside …
rainbow pie was delicious and they aren't stingy with the sauces (likely why it's $ but so worth it). Portion sizes for cost in regard to chicken parm is fantastic. so that in combination with their food being really good, this is a repeatable place for me!

Sometimes you just want a decent pizza with enough cheese and the right "chew" to the dough to make it worth it. THIS is the place.
While the Chef Salad is a little pricy for what they give you, it's a decent salad. I'd have put this lettuce, ham, and cheese salad at around $6, maybe $7, but $10 is a little high for this little thing.
The Minestrone Soup was priced at $6 and delightful with pasta, veggies, and a great tomato broth.
The Grandma Slice is a little square of a solid pizza. Little, square, and priced at $4.50, it'll scratch the itch for pizza!
The White with Spinach Slice is boring and not worth ordering again. It's a reasonable white pizza with what appears to be frozen chopped spinach thrown on top with no salt or other seasoning, so it's just a dull slice compared to the others.
And I'm on the fence about the Margarita Mushroom Slice. PLEASE, if you're going to just dump half a handful of mushrooms on a pizza (and I'd pay attention to this for any veggie you just dump on top instead of blend with the cheese), add some additional seasoning to the vegetables to enhance their flavor. The mushrooms were fine. But they could've been so much better than fine.
Zeppole = warm, doughy, and dip-worthy in chocolate sauce. Nicely done.
Overall, I'm giving this five stars and saving as a fave. I'm just staying away from the "this pizza + this vegetable" slices.

The Mozzarella Sticks and Zeppole are delicious! Consistent, large portions, great prices and arrives very quickly every time! Highly recommend.

Open late and a huge portion which bumps it up to 5 stars. Chicken is a little bit tough but the sauce is really tasty

Sausage & Jalapeno Slice cheese was not melted, and peperoni slice was actually overdone and lukewarm at the same time. Worst pizza I've had in ages.
