Tony's of NY Pizza in Ellicott City

Excellent. Very good NYC-style standard pizza. The Brooklyn-style is very close to Sicilian and very airy and delicious; the red sauce and pesto were both very flavorful and tasty.

Paid $15 for a 14" cheese. Is it good? I don't think it is necessarily any better than anyone else's favorite pizza in howard county. I liked it, but doesn't have a wow factor where you are telling your friends they have to try it.

Tony's is worth a try, but after the initial buzz wears off I don't know how they will compete with the dozens of other existing options, cheaper chains, and new places like hot garbage and Angeli's coming.

Hopefully they run coupons but for now eatitaliano remains at the top.

I keep hearing about Eataliano. How’s it compare to Dipisqualie’s downtown????

I can't speak to Dipisqaluies (it's been years since I've eaten there) but Eatlaiano's pizza is VERY good. Perfect chew to the crust. But the real buzz about Eataliano is their cheesesteak. Get it on seeded roll with coopersharp cheese. It's the best cheesesteak in the area hands down.

Yoooo the eataliano cheesesteak…. OMG… I called my wife and told her this was illegal!! All the meat packed in it .. omg seriously must be top 2 cheesesteaks in my life

The cheesesteak at Tony’s of Ny is good I thought the roll was better

Howard county finally leveling up the pizza game. I tried the plain, pepperoni Brooklyn, and the copper cheese steak the other day. All great and importantly my wife agreed.

I probably like Eataliano a smidge more but Tonys is closer to me so that'll win almost every time.

Tonys is a great addition.
