We had the 18" Thin and Crispy pie and it was delicious. The service was timely and the staff spoke clear English.

JC's New York Pizza Department offers fantastic pizza! An 18” thin crust, half pepperoni and green chile and half Canadian bacon and pineapple, was absolutely delicious. The crust was perfectly thin and crispy, and the toppings were fresh and flavorful. Highly recommended for authentic New York-style pizza in Albuquerque!

What happened to JC’s? Once my favorite pizza in ABQ, (I’m from Philly). Picked up a large pie tonight, excited for a nice treat to only be disappointed. Almost no sauce very little cheese and what was there was dried out overcooked. Usually there is grease running off my hands and face. This pizza almost inedible. What a shame! On a positive note, the pepperoni was still great!

Stopped by here for a quick slice in the late evening. It was my first time visiting here so wasn’t sure what to expect. The bartender was polite, she let me know about the daily special which included two slices of cheese pizza and a drink for $8.50. I added toppings to both at 0.65 cents a topping and subbed a beer which ended up bringing the total to around $13 -ish. Pretty good deal. The service overall was great, even late at night just before closing time and the slices were made to perfection. Couldn’t have asked for anything better to be honest. So I’ll be sure to keep coming back!! 🍕

Busted booths- Soggy pizza slices- ravioli drowning in so much sauce they had to be "fished" out, and service from every single employee like it was an inconvienience that we were there! One of the kitchen staff that delivered our food literally tossed the food infront of us. Nothing about this place was reminicent of a NY slice! Only good thing about the place was the "good ice", need I say more? I know this spot has been around for years, and from what i remember, used to be great, but with all the other choices on the market today, they need to step up their game, especially in service! "Miss thiss", super disapointed.
