Ray's Pizza Deal

OK, OK. To add further confusion to the "which Ray's is the original Ray's" mix,* eight of the various Famous Original Ray's locations are rolling back prices to celebrate 45 years of "serving New Yorkers."

Tomorrow (Tuesday, September 29) between the hours of 11 a.m. and midnight at the following Famous Original Ray's, regular slices and Sicilian slices will be 45¢. Each topping per slice is 45¢, and cans of Pepsi are 45¢.

204 Ninth Avenue (22nd/23rd); 831 Seventh Avenue (53rd); 736 Seventh Avenue (49th); 462 Columbus Avenue (82nd); 1710 Broadway (55th); 250 East Houston Street (Avenue A); 195 East Houston Street (Orchard Street); 1530 Old Country Road, Westbury, Long Island. [via Scott's Pizza Tours]

*In all the reading I've done, it seems that the Ray's Pizza on Prince Street is the original Ray's Pizza. It was opened in 1959 by Ralph Cuomo.

I hit the 7th Ave and 49th street location right after work and only had to wait 10-15 minutes for my first ever visit to any Ray's (famous, original, or knockoff) in almost a decade in New York. They didn't have plain slices, so the other slices ended up being .90 (.45 for the slice plus .45 for the topping), but Sicilian slices were available for just .45. The management limited it to 2 slices per person and that kept the line moving. The pizzas were constantly coming out of the oven so the pies were still pretty fresh by the time you got your order filled. It's not the best pizza in the city but it was a deal, and I can only judge by my own experience, but their promotion went off well in my book. Good will achieved. Nicely done, Famous Original Ray's. Nicely done.
