NY Pizza Department

NY Pizza Department brings authentic New York-style pizza to Avondale, Arizona, delivering a taste of the Big Apple since opening over 25 years ago. Located at 1619 N Dysart Rd in the heart of Avondale, this beloved pizzeria has become a cornerstone of the local community, serving up handcrafted pizzas made with the same dedication and quality that founders brought from their Friday night family traditions in New York. What sets NY Pizza Department apart is their commitment to authenticity – they literally import New York water to Arizona to recreate that distinctive Empire State crust texture that pizza lovers crave. Each pizza features their signature specially filtered NY water, steamed and peeled tomatoes, and a custom blended whole milk mozzarella that you won't find anywhere else in the Valley. Beyond their exceptional pizza, NY Pizza Department is renowned for their community involvement, having raised over $100,000 through their Doughraiser program for local schools, sports organizations, and nonprofits. Their #Everykiddeserves nonprofit provides approximately 1,300 presents annually to Phoenix area foster children during the holiday season. Partnering with Banner Cauldron Children's Cancer Center, they host celebration pizza parties for kids completing cancer treatments. Open daily for dine-in, takeout, and delivery, NY Pizza Department welcomes families, friends, and community members to experience a genuine New York pizza tradition right here in Arizona.
