NYCβs Priciest Pizza β Worth the Wait? ππΈ
After three failed attempts (sold out or 2+ hour waits), I finally got lucky on a rainy day β just a 20-minute wait at Ceres Pizza! Founded by two chefs from Eleven Madison Park, this spot brings fine dining vibes to pizza. Even famed critic Dave Portnoy rated it 9.2/10 β no wonder itβs always packed. π Simple Menu, Big Flavors Only 5 types of pizza β we went for the Nduja (limited to 30 per day π«£). At $74.04 per pie, itβs the most expensive pizza Iβve ever hadβ¦ but wow. π§βπ³ Nduja Pizza Breakdown: San Marzano tomatoes Spicy Nduja sausage spread Creamy Burrata cheese Aged balsamic glaze The crust? Thin, chewy, slightly charred. Each bite starts with tangy tomatoes and spicy Nduja, melts into rich Burrata, and finishes with smoky-sweet balsamic. Absolute flavor explosion! Next time, Iβm bringing friends to try all 5 types β the white mushroom pie is also highly recommended. π Ceres 164 Mott St, Manhattan, NY π‘ Tips: Seats are first-come, first-served They give you the earliest pickup time β you can choose a later slot Only whole pies, no slices #CeresPizza #NYCPizza #MichelinPizza #FoodieSplurge #SohoEats
