Thank you to the thousands of people who have come through in the last week to try a slice - and to our incredible team for cranking out a ton of pizza without compromising quality or losing their cool.
Our oven only has two decks, so there is a hard limit to how many pizzas we can make at one time. Behind the scenes we are working to triple production capacity and streamline operations to serve as many of you as efficiently as possible.
While we adjust to the volume, we are limiting slices to 4 per person. Takeout and delivery orders will only be available through our website, starting around 2pm. We are working to have slices available Monday-Friday 10:30-7pm. If you want to avoid the crowds, come before 11 and after 2. We’re so glad you like our pizza as much as we do!
What’s with the name Dada?
The Dada Art movement emerged in response to the alienation and dehumanization brought on by mass industrialization at the turn of the 20th Century. Pizza as we know it emerged around the same time, responding to the same shifts in technology and social organization. A century later, we find ourselves at a similar inflection point, wondering how to coexist with chatbot poets and drone bomber pilots. We don’t know what comes next, but at least we have pizza. And pizza still offers possibilities for deliciousness, community, and connection.
Plus Matt - our own mustachioed Mona Lisa - has two kids who call him Dada.
We someone asks you to shoot an event on film you just say yes! I have so many fun images from this day on going to split them up in a few posts! Stay tuned 😉.

Big news for the big game! Pizza Dada is open with our full menu 2pm-6pm including a limited number of grandma pies available as whole pies for the first time! They will sell out so please pre order to secure your pie!
Lots of posts today from restaurants we love. Some are open, some are closed. We stand in solidarity with those who are striking and those who are marching and with those who are working. Keep your money local, talk to your neighbors, donate to the people fighting to end injustice when you can. We only have each other.
We know it’s cold, but the oven’s hot, the dough is ready and we would love to feed you. Our pizza takes multiple days to come together and we don’t want it to go to waste! Order direct through Toast today and tomorrow and receive 15% off your entire order. Note we will be closing early tomorrow but online orders are live throughout lunch.
From superlative takes on the classics to unique seasonal specials, you can’t go wrong with a slice at Pizza Dada. But if you had to choose… what’s it gonna be?
Seems like everything is expensive these days, and usually it’s not even good. Pizza Dada is cheap, and it’s one of the best bites in town. Feeding a group? Or just feeling hungry? Whole pies are available before and after our lunch rush and catering orders are welcome! Just reach out to [email protected]
Bring your appetite, cause it’s all you need to enjoy a slice of true NY-style pizza. No gimmicks, no bullshit cheese pulls. Just a few elements in perfect harmony made by hand with quality ingredients and a lot of love. No plate needed.
You know we like it crispy at Pizza Dada. Our dough features four artisanal flours, multiple pre-ferments, high hydration, and long fermentation before we hand toss it for the perfect crust. Crispy by the slice or whole pie. Come see for yourself!
