Ceres

Tried both the Nduja and Tomato, it is impossible for me to imagine a better pizza. Had a ton of pizza in NYC, but this is the only one that genuinely wowed me. Leaving .1 for the pizza Jesus himself makes, but other than that this is perfection.

Overrated is an understatement. Gorgeous presentation but this is some hypebeast private equity trying to hard to be cool pizza. I love well done but this was overcooked, dry, bland sauce, and just generally lacked taste. And for $40 and a 2 hour wait?! I can think of at least 15 better pizzas in NY. Sorry portnoy got this wrong and his sheep are too. (Still yummy, it’s not like gross or anything, but someone needs to speak truth here!)

Incredible slice… zero flop, thin, crispy, and flavorful. This is a must have in NYC. Staff is phenomenal at what they do!

$45 for a pizza is insane. Would I pay it again? No. But this is fantastic

Greatest cheese I’ve ever had on a slice of pizza. Very good use of parm. Sauce had a little bit of sweetness and tang to it which really complimented the cheese. The Crust was a little too charred for my liking but it just depends on if you like it that way or not. In my opinion make the crust a nice crispy golden and you get a 10/10 from me. Overall 9.3 probably the greatest slices I’ve ever tasted.

Best cheese pizza we have ever had.

Absolutely zero flop. Sauce was a bit on the salty side, I prefer a more sweet sauce. Worth the hype.

Felt like a pilgrimage stop while waiting for this pie. Had numerous conversations with others who were as excited as me to try this pizza. It delivered on all accounts. Ingredients felt on another level. Cooked perfectly. Presentation was iconic. Do it!!!!!

When social media pushes for thin and crispy and you end up with matzoh crust. Sauce sour. Cheese light. Don't trust the insta.

Good flavor excellent bite. A little burnt and thin doe but overall a great pizza

Worth the hype. Worth taking a day off work for. Worth waiting in line an hour before opening on a weekday. Best pizza in NYC.

Believe the hype: this is indeed one of the best pizzas Manhattan has to offer. Yes, my friend and I waited nearly over 30 minutes to just place the order and 45 minutes to pick it up (not to mention it was over $40 for one pie), but it was worth it. It has that classic thin NY style where you hear the crisp the second you bite into it. It’s a great combination of flavor between the sauce and cheese that’s balanced well, not overpowering the other. There’s not much grease.

A rookie score but a fair score for a new NY superstar. Unreal crisp, super crunchy if that’s your thing and absolutely zero flop. Sauce was solid and cheese was good. Crust was not as airy as it looked, and it slides into my 1b tier - top top stuff, but slightly behind the Lucali, John’s of the world.

Precision pizza. Without flaw. Plain was an 8.8; mushroom was a 9.2

The Ceres experience was one I’m very happy I did, but do not need to do ever again. Yes, the pizza is good, BUT there is no chance in hell I’m going back to stand in line at 10:30am just to pay $45+ for a pie to get it two hours later. The taste was very similar to Chrissy’s pizza if you’ve had it. Deliciously crunchy, a bit lacking in the sauce department, and then they sprinkled that damn parm all over it (even when asked not to). I really hate this new trend of places doing that. It takes over the pie’s smell and honestly ruins it for me. To each their own of course. Overall Ceres is a bit overrated in my book but wouldn’t fault anyone for trying.

Was not worth the wait, super disappointing. Not sure how they have the highest one bite rating.

4-hours after we ordered, we returned to pick up our pizza. Zero flop, crisp, good flavor, very light, but dry. Would have been better with more sauce. We ordered the cheese pizza, I think some of the other options would be better, like the tomato pie, but no slices and long wait means next time I’m in NY, I might try some of those 😎🤙

Legit best pizza I’ve ever had

Guys a Black Hole

Solid pizza but but the best in NY

Best pizza in NY. Not because it’s supposed to be, because it just is.

Tomato slice is perfect

Phenomenal pizza well worth it. Just be prepared to get there early for opening.

Very good. We ended up waiting until we got back to the hotel to eat, which was our fault and we should have had a slice on the street. Crust was in point and good consistency.
