I had a 15 person birthday dinner at Motorino EV and it was wonderful! They provided a three course family style meal and the food was plentiful (so much so that they sent us home with 8 extra pizzas) and our wine glasses were always full. One guest had a gluten allergy and the manager went above and beyond to make sure she had plenty of food and offered alternatives for her. The service was amazing and I would highly recommend anyone to host a big dinner there. Thank you for the wonderful night!

Really great pizza! We had the octopus salad (really good!!!), and the fennel and mixed green salads to start (good but not amazing). Octopus was cooked perfectly. As far as pizza goes, we had the margherita and the sopresatta. Both had great crusts. Margherita edged it out in terms of flavor though, just a classic done right. The power went out towards the end of the meal but the staff was cool about it and kept the show running smoothly. Kind of a nice twist.

We love Motorino, been eating here for years, they are consistently serving just amazing Pizza. We usually go for the Sopressatta picante, or the Margarita. Service is also great, and they always do their best to accommodate us with a stroller, kids and all.

Here’s my tip: Order two pizzas directly from the restaurant (by phone) for pick up—not on a delivery app, and get a FREE 3rd pizza. When I splurge on eating pizza it’s always Motorino. I used to live in the building next door which was sooo convenient but now we drive from the Seaport area just to have their pizza—it’s that good! I personally think it’s the best margarita pizza in the city ???? Also what a great deal! We always save the left over pizza in the freezer for one of those nights we don’t feel like cooking.

The best pizza in NYC, I guarantee it. I've tried more than 15 pizza places in Manhattan and Brooklyn. I ordered an extra spicy soppressata pizza with grilled peppers on top, and it was mind-blowing. The dough was very chewy and puffy. My husband ordered a sausage pizza with mushroom toppings, and both were really good.

This place has the best Pizza on the east side of Manhattan. The portions are perfect and all food is packed with flavor.

I had the fennel salad to start. The dressing and orange slices were delicious, although the fennel could've been sliced a lot thinner. The margarita Pizza was great, made my mouth water. Perhaps the crust could've been a bit crispier, over-all, quite an authentic brick oven pie. It's a sweet little restaurant for taking a date, but the night I went, there was a table for a pre-wedding celebration of 14 women. So their overall "happiness" was a bit too loud for the size of the place. I'll definitely return. It's a great East Village spot.

Awesome pizza and service! We really enjoyed eating here. Our first stop in New York.

I'm not a big fan of pizza but this place is great, highly recommend the clam white pizza and the amatriciana red pizza

It's been years since I went to the original Motorino in Brooklyn and today we were near the East Village one and decided to go in and have their lunch special. It was very quiet (it's right before Christmas) but we didn't feel uncomfortable in an almost empty restaurant. The room is very nicely done, it's very 'East Village', long and narrow, clean and bright with the pizza oven at the back. Service was excellent, staff were very accommodating and friendly. The lunch deal is a green salad with any pizza for $17. It's a very good deal. The green salad was a good one, a variety of fresh leaves, nicely dressed and a generously sized portion. The pizzas are excellent. The dough is light and soft, the ingredients are high quality, with very good mozzarella, meats, fresh herbs etc. They taste like pizza I have had in Italy. Motorino is my new favorite pizza spot. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and they have deals not only on lunch but on takeout (currently 'buy two, get three'). Highly recommend for the food and it's a cute spot for a date night too!
