Went to Bills for the first time today with my family. We have 7 children so 9 total and they were able to accommodate us well. The waitress Laura was very nice and patient. It took everyone awhile to decide what to eat and she was so patient. Other people also kept checking on us to make sure if we needed refills or food. The other customers were so friendly as well. Now the food, that’s why we are here right lol, it was amazing. I had a calzone and the marinara sauce was the best I’ve tasted. Their garlic knotts are a must. My kids had pizza and tore it up. The older boys tried a hero, chicken marinara, and chicken parm. Chicken scampi for my partner and everyone loved it. I highly recommend and will be back again!!!

Visited recently with my wife and all 7 kids and the experience was nothing shy of amazing! Such a historic name paired with extremely high quality food. The sauce was made with love the garlic knots cooked to perfection and all the nostalgic memorabilia tied it all together perfectly. Our server Laura did a really good job giving us the run down on why this place sits in the hearts of so many people. Highly recommend 10/10

Big Bill’s has a great small business, hole in the wall vibe, which I really appreciated. It was very busy when we went, which likely contributed to some of the issues. Their christmas decor and photos were really nice. We waited about 25 minutes to be seated. Service felt a bit scattered. It took a while to take our order, and plates were forgotten with our appetizer. The Sticks and Stones appetizer was tasty, but it was not hot or fresh when it came out. The pizza itself was okay, maybe a little undercooked. One small frustration was 3 adults and a teenager being crammed into a tiny four top table against a wall while several two or three person parties were seated at much larger tables, which made the meal feel uncomfortable, with little elbow room at all. That said, I really like the local feel and atmosphere, and I would be willing to come back again when things are less busy to give it another try.

First time at Big Bill's New York Pizza, large combo with the pepperoni, sausage, green pepper, mushrooms, onion and cheese. The sauce has really nice zip id spicy flavors. Crispy thin crust. There is quite if but if oik, but it's probably from the meats. Garlic knots with marinara sauce were filling, but I needed to add more salt to enjoy them. I will return the pizza is fabulous!
