Decades Pizza

This neighborhood joint in Ridgewood pairs its lineup of classic and modern pies with a relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere. While the menu spans Detroit-style and thin-crust options, it also earns high marks for crowd-pleasing gluten-free whole pies, like the VCR. The food is anchored by a house Caesar salad that regularly steals the spotlight and classic sides like garlic breadsticks. Backed by a solid selection of cocktails and beer pitchers, it’s the kind of cozy, friendly spot that works just as well for a late-night bite as it does for a long, slow evening of catching up.
