Pizza Joint Too, New York

Big Nick's Pizza and Burger Joint, a family-owned eatery, has slung pies and beef patties on the Upper West Side since 1962. Owner Jimmy Galanopolous slays appetites with a copious menu that encompasses breakfast classics as well as authentic Italian and Greek cuisine. Patrons populate cozy booths amid the long dining area's exposed-brick walls and wood-grain tables as handsome as George Clooney in a tuxedo made of mustaches until the wee hours. 4 a.m. crowds can chomp on both evening- and morning-themed menu items such as buttermilk pancakes, sweet-potato fries, giant hot dogs, and eggplant-parmigiana hot subs.
