For National Pizza Month, why not celebrate with pizza that comes with a free drink?

Double Zero Pie & Pub

October is National Pizza Month. And a popular Vegas pizza joint is celebrating with free drinks for customers. Double Zero Pie & Pub is running the special for the entire month. Which gives guests a free drink when they order a pizza and say the magic phrase to the staff.

Double Zero Pie & Pub recently made headlines when they landed on the list of the 50 top pizzerias in the world. An extra impressive feat considering they had just celebrated only one year of being open in Las Vegas. Double Zero was one of only two Las Vegas pizza establishments to make the list.

Double Zero's chef, Michael Vakneen, was personally recognized by the writers of the "Guide To The Best Pizzerias In The World" for his pizza making process. Which starts with a crust made with finely-milled flour and allowed to rise naturally before its stretched. When awarded with the honor, Chef Vakneen became the youngest chef ever to be recognized by the world-renowned list.

How To Get A Free Drink At Double Zero Vegas Pizza Restaurant

Considering how amazing the pizza at Double Zero is, you don't really need another reason to stop by. But they're giving locals one anyway. They want to celebrate National Pizza Day right. After all, pizza is what they do. And they're honoring their (and our) favorite food by giving guests a free negroni with every pizza ordered.

5 Places Locals Go For The Best New York Pizza In Vegas

When it comes to good pizza in Vegas, locals have their choice of different eateries that serve all manner of pizza styles. But when it comes specifically to the best New York pizza in Vegas, you can’t just ask the locals. You have to ask the locals from New York. And that's just what we did.

Asking Locals Where The Best New York Pizza In Vegas Is

We recently turned to our favorite Las Vegas locals app, Nextdoor, to see which restaurant our neighbors thought serve the best New York pizza in Vegas. And boy did we get some tasty insight. Some pizza places had unanimous votes from multiple patrons. Others were mentioned by just one person, but with the promise it really is the best New York pizza in Vegas. And these suggestions coming from people in Vegas who come from the Big Apple.

Before we get into the list, let’s just mention why the type of pizza you’re looking for matters. And what people say is superior about New York style. According to GoldBelly.com, you can spot a New York pizza about a mile away. You’ll know it by the huge crust that’s thin and cut into slices about a foot long.

<sup>This guy knows the right way to eat a piece of New York pizza. He's folding it in half. There's no other way to eat Brooklyn-style pizza, especially in front of a New Yorker!</sup>

The New York pizza is the one you’ll see people folding in half and eating like a taco. An easy thing to do with how big and thin the slices are. Some people who prefer thicker crusts or their pie cut into square pieces will say their pizza is superior to the New York style. But there’s at least one thing you have to admit when it comes to pizza from the Big Apple. It’s a great conversation piece. In fact, those large crusts are meant to bring people together to eat and mingle.

5 Places Locals Go For The Best New York Pizza In Vegas

You can’t argue with food that brings people together. And pretty much any pizza is going to do that because it’s just the ultimate “comfort with friends” food. But if you’re specifically looking for the best New York pizza in Vegas, here are the places locals from the East Coast swear by.

Disclaimer: Vegas locals know there are way too many New York pizza places in town to narrow it down to just five. These are just five places you can try when you're craving that style, where you won't be disappointed.

1. Dom DeMarco’s Pizzeria & Wine Bar

One New York neighbor said this is the absolute best place in Vegas for New York style pizza. In fact, he said eating at Dom DeMarco’s in Vegas is just like being in a pizzeria on the East Coast. Hard to beat that! But we can beat it, because these guys also scored the Gold in "Best of Las Vegas" 2023.

Dom Demarco’s is located at 9785 West Charleston Blvd in the Lakes in Summerlin. They offer online ordering, catering and a happy hour. 

2. Anna Marie’s Italian Cuisine

If you want a true New York pizza from a New Yorker, check out Anna Marie’s. The owner is from Brooklyn. As the name says, they serve more than just pizza. They have a variety of Italian dishes made Neapolitan-style. Keep in mind locals say it’s not the cheapest place, but they also say it’s worth the price.

Anna Marie’s offers online ordering, catering, a happy hour, Vegan menu and gluten-free pizza options. They are located at 10170 West Tropicana Avenue on the corner at Hualapai. They’re closed Mondays and open late (til 9 p.m. on school nights and 10 p.m. weekends) the rest of the week.

3. Carmine’s Pizza Kitchen

Locals seem pretty unanimous about how good this place is for Brooklyn-style pizza. They say it’s foldable and that the cheese is the right texture, which is something New Yorkers are picky about when it comes to their pie.  Carmine’s fans say this pie is true New York pizza.

Not to be confused with the Carmine’s in the Forum Shoppes, Carmine's Pizza Kitchen is located at Fort Apache and Sunset. They also have locations on Horizon Ridge, American Pacific and Raiders Way. Stop by during lunch and try their pizza by the slice!

4. Brooklyn’s Best

Here's another place that locals from New York say feel like home. Brooklyn's Best is owned by a guy actually from Brooklyn (if you heard his accent, you'd have no doubt) who is committed to making some seriously tasty food. Another "Best of Las Vegas" winner, these guys do more than just pizza. You can also get pasta, salads, wings, sandwiches and more. 

Brooklyn's Best has two locations in Vegas. One on Tropicana and Fort Apache and another at Charleston and Industrial Road. 

5. Good Pie

If you're in the Arts District in Downtown Vegas, you have to stop by Good Pie. It's a Brooklyn-style pizza shop that was founded by award-winning pizzaiolo Vincent Rotolo. They specialize in Grandma's Pizza and honor old New York traditions when it comes to their food. But these guys are also open to visitors, as they have a Detroit-style option on their menu as well. Gluten-free or Vegan? They've got options for you too.

Good Pie is located at 1212 South Main Street in the Arts District. Open seven days a week at 11 a.m.
