Unregular Forno Pizza

The slice is still whole yet cut into squares on Unregular Forno Pizza’s lunch menu—odd, but it works. The stretch of 4th Avenue between 10th and 11th Streets keeps lunch crowds moving, yet the pizzeria holds its own. Neapolitan dough hits the deck at 650°F, and the short menu reads like a napkin sketch that somehow satisfies your third coffee craving of the day. Expect a quick bite without the wait, even when the sidewalk fills up.

Come dinner, the same space swaps solo diners for groups hunched over pepperoni pies. Vegetarian options show up late in the game, but the roasted-mushroom square is worth the detour if you usually play it safe. Dessert arrives in a cardboard wedge of olive-oil cake, still warm when the check lands. The place feels casual enough to bring kids, yet the line at the counter never quite thins out.

At 124 4th Ave, Unregular Forno Pizza stays anchored between a dry cleaner and a subway staircase. You can phone ahead if the queue snakes past the subway grate—just call the number once before you slide into the crosswalk.
