MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View
You can't throw a stone without hitting a Michele Iuliano’s restaurant these days and for good reason. Nestled in the East Village is this original outpost of Luzzo's boasting a colorful exterior, exposed brick interior and that century-old coal-burning oven that pushes out not only ace pizzas, but fun Neapolitan eats like burrata and la quadrata.
Gauging from the crowd outside, locals know a good menu when they see it, and this one has much to offer, including a simple bietole with beets, asparagus and goat cheese as well as deliciously tender polpettine. But really, everyone is here for their exquisite pizza—like the brutta ma buona, sporting a perfectly chewy crust topped with smooth tomato sauce, rich sausage crumbles and dots of fresh ricotta.
