My favorite spot for deep dish pizza in New York City is Emmett’s a small joint located Downtown Manhattan that we discovered many years ago while watching a food show on TV. There is something about this place that I love: some sort of nostalgia from the decor (love the bar with its bills from all over the world) and run down tables, with a warmth not just from the place but also from its staff that makes you want to go back. Their deep dish pizza is a must have and our favorite is the Cheese Louise that is oozing of cheese and has this incredible caramelized crust that is deliciously crispy and adds some decadence to a pizza that is spectacular. The crispy crust is not dry at all and is topped with a delicious tomato sauce and tons of cheese that will fill you up quickly (it is good for 3 people for sure).
Emmett’s is my favorite spot for deep dish pizza in New York. So, if you are craving Chicago style pizza or never tried it, it is worth a trip downtown!
Enjoy (I did)!
