Stage Door Pizzeria

Positioned across from the Oculus Mall, this casual space offers a relatively quiet retreat. While reaching the dining room requires climbing a flight of stairs, the reward is a view through large windows. Alongside the standard pies, the kitchen turns out calzones, strombolis, and a popular pastrami on rye. The staff maintains a steady pace, staying patient with tourists and swift with local regulars. Inside seating is somewhat limited, but the clean setup and quick service make it a practical stop when visiting the nearby 9/11 Memorial.
