Planet Pizza - Our Story
The story of Planet Pizza begins in 1966, when our father Nicola Barile arrived in the Bronx from his small town in Italy. Over the next few years he would work in various pizzerias, perfecting his craft along the way. Eventually owning a pizzeria restaurant in Yonkers. Fast forward a few years and our family decided to move to the Hudson Valley, bringing with us our love for pizza. Today, Dave and Nick, carry on the traditions taught to them by their father (who has since retired) while also adding their own touches here and there. We take great pride in serving our community and friends the highest quality pizza and Italian specialties in a friendly atmosphere.

My husband and I are native New Yorkers and are no strangers to a NY pizza joint. We just moved up here and haven't had much luck with finding descent pizza until now! I chose to go here because of the menu. It looked like the closest style menu that I could find to Long Island. Mostly Italian American options, lots of classic dishes, and not to much messing about with food choices that simply don't belong at a NY pizza place. The regular slice was perfect....exactly what you want in a NY slice. Very thin, but holds together. Not too much sauce. A slight char on the bottom crust. It came to the table piping hot which was great! I ordered the eggplant parm hero and it was exactly how I love it.. Very thinly sliced eggplant, not breaded....just flour, egg, and fry. This is perfect b/c without breadcrumbs, it doesn't become a soggy mess. Perfect amount of sauce and cheese. Perfect amount of filling compared with the hero. Now I feel confident ordering more dishes next time.
We sat in the dining area and I noticed how clean and orderly everything looked. I can't wait to come back!
