It seems like forever ago we first heard rumors of Artichoke Pizza coming to Astoria – and now it’s finally here!

 

 

The eagerly awaited pizzeria had their soft opening Tuesday night, and are officially open for business! So far, residents have had good things to report back – and it looks like the wait was worth it.

 

The location joins their chain of multiple NYC locations,  serving the same classic menu. It’s in the old Frankie’s Pizza space, at 22-56 31st Street.

 

The first slices!

 

If you’ve never had Artichoke Basille’s Pizza..oh my. It sounds gross at first. Whose first thought about pizza is “WE SHOULD PUT ARTICHOKE ON THIS.” But it totally works. Artichoke pizza is extremely thick and creamy – you kind of have to toss out all your ideas about pizza, and have them re-made. The slices are huge, and even one is enough to fill an empty stomach. Two and you’ll be groaning on your couch.

 

 

Try it out, and let us know what you think! We can’t wait to place our order.
