For a real taste of New York, take a ride to Yellow Cab Pizza Co. conveniently located on Dillingham Boulevard in Honolulu.

One surefire way to get a flavor-packed slice of the “Big Apple” is by ordering the eatery’s New York-style pizza, with a crust that is between thin and medium.

“Our crust is made fresh daily in the restaurant. Our pizza is known for its abundant toppings — filled all the way to the edge of the pie,” shares general manager Maly San Luis.

Yellow Cab also serves crisp salads, lip-smacking wings, perfectly prepared pasta, eye-opening espresso coffee and more.

One of the restaurant’s best sellers is New York’s Finest combination pizza, bursting with savory meats and veggies. All of the restaurant’s pizzas are available in three sizes — 10 inches, 14 inches and 18 inches. Other top sellers at the eatery are Chopped Salad and succulent Garlic Parmesan Wings.

Chicken Alfredo ($8.95)

Yellow Cab Pizza Co. is part of an international franchise that boasts branches throughout Asia and the Middle East, explains San Luis. The Honolulu location opened two years ago (January 2017) and is located near Costco Iwilei.
