It’s ok for being open late, but no sauce on the pizza at all

Very delicious pizza. Crispy crust, sweet and savory sauce. Quality ingredients. It is a small shop, with 2 benches, no tables, open to outside. Prices are reasonable, $2.50 for a plain, and everything else is $4 for a slice. Cash and credit are both accepted. 04/2024

I haven't been to Champion in a long time and I was wondering why they had two locations right next door to each other. Turns out they're the same except one is dine-in. Love that this is on my way home. I ordered two topping slices and they were only $3 each! There were so many different options to choose from. Chicken parm pizza: 7.5/10 this was good! Wasn't as crispy as I wanted it to be but it was still a decent flavorful basil-y slice! Buffalo chicken pizza: 5/10 this is definitely not the best buff chicken pizza I've had. It was average at best. The sauce they use isn't spicy and tastes sweet and kind of odd. I don't think I'll get this again. I'm going back to try different slices soon, specifically the truffle mushroom, and the pesto!

The pizza is amazing! The bottom is crunchy but the top is soft and it is just the perfect combination. They do deliver but we went there and the pizza was ready in about a minute and it was piping hot that we had to wait for it to cool down. This is probably the only restaurant I'd go to more than once in New York as a tourist!

The best hospitality I have ever had a pizza restaurant. We arrived at 4:30 am after leaving a nearby club, and I was shivering to death. They took me behind the counter, let me get warm by the ovens and gave me a jacket until we left about an hour later. Super friendly guys, very fun to talk to and the pizza was also just as amazing! Totally recommend you will not be disappointed and once again the nicest people I have come across in the city.

I’ve lived in NYC for 10 years and this is probably the worst pizza I’ve had. Tiny slices, and crust that almost reminded me of lunchables pizza. Don’t let the awkward celebrity selfies on the wall fool you. This place is trash.

I used to go to their outpost at Columbus Circle all the time. So I was excited when I saw this location on my errands. Went in, and immediately felt a depressed, amateur hour vibe in what I discovered to be an incredibly average, disappointing experience. I've had better slices at a 99-cent shop. The cheese tasted old, the sauce way too acidic and the crust was as limp as a 90-year old without viagra. Bottom line: Save your money and go down the block to the McDonald's. It'll be a better tasting meal that's for sure.

Don't come to this place ! Of all the chains/locations . This place decided us black folks were not worthy ! Not just the intake , customer service or food . They decided we can't be specific, and profiling was best !!! I have been here before , and the experience was completely different. We won't be stepping foot in here again .
