Mark Rich's NY Pizza & Pasta

Every morning, workers at Mark Rich's NY Pizza & Pasta open bright red and gold canopies above tables in their alfresco dining area. Inside or outside, the casual restaurant invites customers to linger over slices of pizza or a dish of gelato or spumoni. Chefs craft their pizzas New York–style: thin, well-dressed, and able to stop a moving taxi with a focused glare. In addition to pies topped with artichoke hearts, sausage, and jalapeños, the menu also includes Italian-style desserts, pastas, and gluten-free dishes.
