Do not mess this one up. Do not go to Prince St. Pizza and order a Neapolitan slice. Do not go and order a calzone. Granted, you will not be disappointed with anything you get here (except for maybe the rice balls, which I've never actually ordered, because...why would you?). But please, do yourself a favor, and get a Spicy Spring slice. That's the one you've seen all over Instagram- the one with the little slices of soppressata that act as adorable little vessels for all that delicious oil drizzled over the top. Like little pockets of grease that cascaded down directly from heaven.
Then, and only then, are you allowed to sample the remainder of the menu. Not in one visit, necessarily, unless you're some sort of pizza-devouring demigod (wow...2 religious references in one review) with the capacity to put down a seemingly endless amount of 'za with ease. In which case, teach me your ways oh mighty one.
Don't go to this place for its award-winning decor and atmosphere. Prince Street Pizza is a tiny hole in the wall, but that hasn't stopped tons of people flocking there including many A- List celebrities. The staff is super friendly and eager to help you chose your perfect slice. The most sought after slices are the original and the spicy spring with fra diavolo sauce, spicy pepperoni, and fresh mozzarella. Try a twist on the original slice, the fancy prince, that has fresh mozzarella cheese. The deliciousness doesn't stop at just pizza. They've got mouth-watering rice balls and fried calzones as well.
This is easily one of the top 10 slice joints in the city. The vodka slice is amazing, the plain slice has the exact right cheese-to-crust ratio, and if you don't get the square slice with pepperoni, you've messed up. It's spicy and the it's got the good pepperonis that sometimes retain little pools of grease in there curled up edges.
