West Hempstead is in New York, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and West Hempstead follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Wednesday morning, forgot my lunch, staring down a long, stressful day at work. I stepped out thinking Iβd just grab something quick. Googled a few spots and came across Pizza Block. Walked in, and the place was beautiful. Spacious, welcoming, super friendly staff. And the pizza? Unbelievable. I grabbed two slices at a great price, and they were the best slices Iβve ever had! I went back to work in a completely different mood, literally singing through the rest of my day. Not exaggerating when I say it turned my whole day around. Highly recommend Pizza Block. You wonβt regret it.

Pizza was fine, kid working there seemed to be comfortable, but also seemed like he could use some more guidance from management. Wouldn't hurt to train him more in managing things. I know ur new so if you need help with customer requests like how to make a tuna melt (someone called while we were there, and it was dead quiet so the few customers heard the whole conversation) lmk you'll find me "swimming in the 5t" ;)

Absolutely Disgusted Serious Health Concerns I don't usually leave reviews, but this experience was so appalling that I feel obligated to warn others. I went to this location to pick up two pies for a family party. My kids were so excited for pizza night it was supposed to be a fun, easy dinner. Instead, we got something straight out of a nightmare. First, when we opened the boxes at home, we were shocked to find that both pizzas were completely burnt on the bottom and not just overcooked, but blackened like they'd been sitting in a fire pit. The crust crumbled like ash when we touched it. Totally inedible. It was obvious no one had even checked the quality before boxing them up. That was bad enough, but unfortunately, it got worse. While I was waiting for the order, I witnessed something beyond disgusting: one of the kitchen employees, wearing gloves, turned away from the prep area, stuck his hands into the back of his pants, adjusted himself, and then immediately turned back around and started kneading dough with the same gloves still on. He did not wash his hands, did not change gloves, did not say a word. I was in absolute disbelief. There were at least two other staff members

I really don't want to give a mixed review resulting in an overall bad experience. So this absolutely requires an explanation. The staff and service are top notch and what you should expect in a family friendly establishment. The staff's best efforts are let down by the food. My first sampling was a slice topped with ground beef. Among the worst I've ever encountered. The flavors weren't just bland they had a spoiled essence. I returned to let them know I couldn't put up a bad review for a new business. The explanation was this is a kosher, the meat is fake. I've lived in West Hempstead for 25 years, there's a kosher pizza establishment 6 or 7 blocks down the road which is fantastic. The staff again fantastic insisting I try something different. I selected a veggie pizza with similar results. An unwillingness to flavor the sauces is ultimately what's letting down the experience. The crust and cheese are perfectly fine. Again it's the unwillingness to refine the assembly. I'll definitely return in a month or two. I'll stop by the week to show them the review because I've never done this before and want them successfully. If things change I will absolutely remove or

Very good pizza. They use a generous amount of cheese. The crust is crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. Thick enough to support the toppings. Flavorful sauce and fast service. Staff are friendly and efficient. Would absolutely eat here again.
