Pizza from New York City’s See No Evil Pizza is about to get easier to find. And this time it will be serving up pies by the slice.
The Michelin-recommended pizzeria, tucked into the southbound 1 train concourse at 50th Street in New York, is coming up for air at last. This spring, partners Adrien Gallo and chef Ed Carew will open See No Evil Slice at 11 Waverly Place in Greenwich Village, bringing their culinary-driven approach to pizza above ground.
Time Out New York calls See No Evil “a hidden yet highly regarded pizza spot” renowned for its “hybrid Neapolitan-New York pies and ‘80s punk vibe.” It has been lauded as one of the best restaurants around Times Square by Eater New York and one of the 11 best restaurants near Broadway by Condé Nast Traveler.
But the 1,100-square-foot, 28-seat shop marks a deliberate departure for the midtown flagship restaurant. Built with structural integrity in mind, See No Evil Slice will serve large, 20″ thin-crust round pies—the foundation for both classic slices, time-tested combinations and inventive new hits.
And the kitchen won’t stop at pizza. A tight supporting menu features Calabrian chili-honey wings, Sicilian pigs in a blanket, and seasonal arancini.
“Ed and I don’t know how to do things [mediocre],” Gallo told PMQ Pizza in early 2025, less than a year after See No Evil opened. “It’s just not in our DNA. We’ve been in this game for a long time. The things we do, we go all in on them and do them to the best of our ability. It will probably kill us one day, but we’re here for it.”
But at that time, Carew and Gallo made no mention of plans to open a slice shop. In fact, Carew said, “Slices in New York is a really hard game. It’s hard to do it really, really well. I don’t want to go up against those guys that’ve been doing it their whole lives, because they would’ve slaughtered us. But, at the same time, they might have trouble trying to do what we’re doing at See No Evil. In this city, you have to find a way to set yourself apart.”
With the citywide acclaim it has earned in the past two years, something tells us slaughter is not in the cards for See No Evil Slice.
