Steeped in Flavor: Historic Pizza Stops You Need to Try on Long Island | Laffey Real Estate

Pizza is a huge part of New York's history and culture. The traditional New York-style pizza we know and love today dates back to the late 1800s and was derived from Italy's Neopolitan-style pizza. Today, large, thin-crust pizza slices have become the quintessential on-the-go meal for Long Islanders, and many of our historic pizza shops are still serving communities across the region. If you're for some local pizza shops that have withstood the test of time, here is a list of favorites from our real estate agents.

  • Mario's Pizzeria - 253 Pine Hollow Road, Oyster Bay, NY 11771
    This Long Island staple first opened in Oyster Bar in 1969 before expanding to communities across Long Island. Mario's Pizzeria provides gourmet pizzas by the slice or pie with dough and sauce made fresh every morning. There is no shortage of unique specialty pizzas, many of which are topped with pasta. It's easy to order from this classic pizzeria when you live in one of these nearby Oyster Bay homes for sale.

  • Eddie's Pizza - 2048 Hillside Ave., New Hyde Park, NY 11040
    Eddie's Pizza is home to the "bar pie," a delicious 10-inch, thin-crust, 270-calorie pizza that allows you to save room for a beer. This Long Island pizza shop opened in the early 1930s and has since become one of the area's best. Also, be on the lookout for their food truck serving the New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut tri-state area.

  • La Scala - 34 Vanderbilt Motor Parkway, Commack, NY 11725
    An old-school pizzeria with authentic Italian flavors, La Scala was founded in 1974 by Italian immigrant Nunzio Cusumano. Choose from over two dozen specialty pies, check out some of the slices in the display case, or place a custom order. Beer, wine, and cocktails are available in-house. Don't forget to tour your favorite Commack homes for sale while you're in the neighborhood.

  • Piccolo - 2770 Sunrise Highway, Bellmore, NY 11710
    Enjoy a delicious pizza and a bottle of your favorite wine at Piccolo, a popular family-owned and operated eatery that opened in 1979 and specializes in authentic Italian cuisine. Choose from a personal 9" pizza, 1/2 pie, or whole pie, and load it up with your favorite toppings. Want to try something different? Order the signature Piccolo Pizza, which is loaded with eight toppings. If you enjoy your meal, you might enjoy living down the street in one of these gorgeous Bellmore homes for sale.

  • Salvatore's Coal Oven Pizza - 124 Shore Road, Port Washington, NY 11050
    This award-winning and nationally recognized pizzeria serves mouthwatering brick-oven pizzas in a simple, low-key shop. Salvatore's Coal Oven Pizza opened in Port Washington in 1996. This pizza has a distinct crispy crust and delicious sauce, and it might just be among the best on Long Island. The restaurant is cash only, first come, first serve, with no reservations and it's conveniently located near these beautiful Port Washington homes for sale.
