Well, this Ray's has
the dubious distinction of being the dirtiest, dingiest member of
the chain. The day we were there a squashed slice sat in the doorway,
a couple stained plates sat like bloodshot eyes on the tile floor
and it looked as if some monkeys got into the napkins. The place is
pretty small, so the mess couldn't spread too far, but ordering a
chicken roll from a place that is a complete disaster doesn't inspire
confidence. Of course they were out of chicken rolls anyway. So I
got a slice of pepperoni and called it a day. Their pizza is decent,
but tends to sit out too long. They do a reasonably good business,
so the employees are always rushing your slices out of the oven before
they're warmed up enough to last more than three blocks from the restaurant.
I guess some people don't mind cold pizza, but that ain't me. There
are certainly better pizza joints out there, but you could do worse
than Ray's--especially if you're looking for a decent chicken and/or
eggplant roll. [MF] Other Locations: Famous Original Ray's Pizza (Midtown West) Famous Original Ray's Pizza (Yorkville) |
