Surf City Pizzeria 3

Adding a slice to Manhattan’s Upper East Side, Surf City Pizzeria 3 stakes its claim as one of the neighborhood’s Italian table spots. The restaurant sits between the FDR and the avenues, a short walk from the East River’s cycle path and Carl Schurz Park. To reach the front door, use the map at the bottom instead of guessing one-way streets—parking meters tip the balance quickly here. Surf City Pizzeria 3 turns casual meals into a small ceremony of dough and sauce. Diners slide into chairs for dine-in, step up for curbside pickup on busy nights, or pivot to takeout bags when time’s tight. Onsite service keeps the pizza box moving; curbside keeps oil stains off Sunday slacks. Close by, Yorkville’s brownstones give way to East End Avenue’s retail stretch. The pizzeria leans into those rhythms—no fussy reservations, just an oven that whirs around the clock. When hunger arrives, a call ahead can line up a hot box before your shoes touch the sidewalk. Call (212) 838-5080 to place your order. Add this directions link to your phone before you leave the train—your pepperoni will thank you. Yorkville knows its late pies.
