Our Story
A Slice of New York,
A Slice of New York,
Born on Amsterdam Ave
Jet's Pizza began as a dream shared between two lifelong friends who grew up on the streets of the Upper West Side, where every corner told a story and every meal was a celebration. In 2010, that dream became a reality when we opened our first oven at 728 Amsterdam Avenue.
We built Jet's on one simple belief: pizza should be an experience. From the hand-stretched dough made fresh every morning to the slow-cooked San Marzano tomato sauce, every detail is intentional. Every ingredient is chosen with care. Every pie is a labor of love.
What started as a neighborhood spot has grown into a beloved institution — but our soul remains the same. We still answer the phone, still know our regulars by name, and still make every pizza like it's the first one we've ever made.

Dough hand-stretched daily, never frozen, never rushed.
Wood-Fired Tradition
