John’s of Bleecker Street’s classic cheese pizza is named after the founder himself, John Sasso. It’s topped with housemade tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese, and cooked in John’s original coal-fired brick oven.
New York City’s legendary John’s of Bleecker Street was founded in 1929 by Italian immigrant Giovanni “John” Sasso, who hailed from Naples, the birthplace of pizza. It was originally located on Sullivan Street, and in 1934 John moved his coal-fired brick oven to the famed 278 Bleecker Street, where he perfected his pizza recipe. Sasso ran the pizzeria until passing his legacy on in 1954. Keeping the name, location, and tradition alive, John’s is still family-owned and operated to this day, widely regarded as one of New York’s very best pizzerias.
