β2 PaiZan's is City Island's own bronx style pizzeria. With a rotating selection of limited topping and specialty pies, 2 PaiZan's is a MUST-stop-slice-shop for anyone traveling to or residing within the City Island confines. In addition to the pies, 2 PaiZan's offers a range of other interesting and delicious options, from bureks to cheesecakes, pepperoni rolls to full blown catering trays, and 3/6ft heroes to fries and garlic knots. Great space for small parties or solo eaters. Eat-in, take-out or delivery options. Remember as times change (and tariff insanity ensues) so do food prices, so be sure to check in with your server for the latest pricing information. Friendly service and warm facilities round out your experience at 2 PaiZan's. No parking lot, but on-street spots abound. Just go and get a slice already... and then come back for more!β

βA Hidden Gem on City Island! I rarely write reviews, but 2 PaiZans Pizzeria deserves all the praise--and more! From the moment you walk in, you can feel the pride, culture, and heart behind this family-run spot. The staff treats you like you're part of the family, and the food? Next level. Their pizza is perfectly crisp with a chewy crust and just the right amount of cheese and sauce. You can taste the tradition in every bite. But don't stop at the pizza--try the burek or the Albanian-style dishes. It's not often you find a pizzeria serving such a unique mix of Italian and Balkan flavors--and doing it so well. The sandwich was a knockout, and the strawberries with chocolate and pistachio was the perfect finish. It's clear they put love into everything they do, and that love shows. Clean, welcoming space, great music, and a truly local vibe you can't fake. Whether you're a City Island regular or just passing through--this is the place to eat. Huge respect to the owners for keeping it authentic and delicious. Can't wait to come back!β

β2 PaiZans is an absolute hidden gem on City Island! Their Italian-Albanian cuisine is insanely good -- the Sicilian pizza is perfectly crisp and fluffy with rich, flavorful toppings, and the special-order cheese marinara burek pie is nothing short of legendary. It's a tiny (mostly take-out) shop, but the food packs an incredibly big punch! Every bite felt like flavor perfection -- comforting, bold, and just unforgettable. The team is friendly and welcoming, and the passion for great food really shows. If you're in the area and haven't tried 2 PaiZans yet, drop everything and go. You'll be so glad you did! β
