Not my kind of spot for pizza . Fair prices for what they serve here. Every one always says this is the spot for pizza I think maybe you want to start with a few drinks then maybe the pizza will taste much better. Not what I was looking forward to. Won't be back anytime soon... but I don't think it will hurt this place they have a very loyal customer base. Prices for drinks were very reasonable..

Heard the pizza was great. Went with a few buddies. Waited for a table or any interaction with the employees but everyone was to "busy" serving the aging demographic. We left after 5 minutes of trying to get someone attention. I guess well have to try again before the oldies come out. We went to Deninos instead was great.

Nice place, they spot fakes. A bit expensive, but good music. I won't probably go again.

Good service. Our waitress checked on us throughout the meal and asked how everything was. Very kind too. Pizza was top notch. Kind of loud so we had to shout at each other to hear but other than that it was a good experience.

Very non-descript looking old man’s bar on the outside. Insane bar pizza and sausage heroes on the inside. Lee’s is always one of my favorite spots on SI. But make sure you bring cash. No cards accepted there. Great atmosphere for Rangers games! LGR!!!

Definitely among Staten Island's best thin crust pizza, and the Lee's special hero is something extra special not to be missed.

Poor experience, subpar pizza but we had Brooklyn expectations. We waited over an hour for food while everyone around us got served even if they got there after us.

This place epitomizes a New York pizza. Thin and delicious. And please, get the buffalo style calamari. That was probably the best part. Lastly, it's a tavern, so there's a wide selection of beer ... and hospitable service.

I Love this place the pizza and calamari are great. It's a casual bar atmosphere but also family friendly! 4.5 stars because of the old cigarette beer stank.

A true local bar with such good pizza that words can not describe which is a true feat in Staten Island. If you love thin crust pizza this will be your new favorite place. As if the amazing pizza wasn’t enough their prices are so reasonable you can drink there all night long and not break the bank. The ONLY negative thing I can say about this place is that they don’t deliver but they have take out. If you’re looking for a great low key night this is your place. I couldn’t even get a photo of the full pie because people attack it the second it hits the table.

Easily one of, if not my number one, favorite pizza spots on all of Staten Island. Every time I go, its an absolute treat. The two pies here are half plain/half white pie and the other is half white clam/half fried calamari.

Lived across the street in Seaview Avenue 8 years ago. Still remember this pizza 🍕. I would order all the time during my pregnancy. Definitely worth it!

The buffalo calamari and clam pie are the best. Their pizza is delicous but the service is just not good. Expect a bit of a wait, but still worth it if you have time to spare and I'll continue to go back

Excellent service, but white clam pizza Disappointing. Underdone supermarket crust, canned chopped clams, flavorless chopped garlic. MUCH better/fresher clam pie in West Haven, CT.

Ahhh...what can I say....still one of the best pizzerias on Staten Island. Thin crust & great sauce. Neighborhood bar/pizzeria that has been around since I was a kid. Staff is very friendly.

Harry was the best. The atmosphere was perfect and everyone was incredibly friendly, from employees like Jonathan to the regulars like Phill everyone was welcoming and held great conversation. This was our last night in New York City and our first trip over to Staten Island, and it was honestly the best experience of the trip. The food was delicious, the beer was cold, and the good times kept rolling for hours. Also, Staten Island has the best best example of the quintessential New York accent and its place no one should miss. Seriously, go to Lee's. You won't regret it. Unless you don't go; then you'll regret it the rest of your life.

Small tavern with friendly neighborhood vibes -- you definitely feel as though you're elsewhere. Many locals frequent here during the day on a wekday for a casual meal and a drink or two. Food is solid. Service could have been a little faster for my taste, but I suppose that comes with being away from the bustle of Manhattan.

The food was great and our waitress was the best. I give it 4 stars because the place needs just a little TLC. Rocky tables drive me crazy. It is such an easy fix.

Great pizza, service not so much. Your kind of lost with where to sit and how they know when you do sit when you’ll be helped. Needs a bit more of a better system in place.

Just know the pizza here is thin crust so if your expecting a fluffy crust you wont get that here. I'm not a fan of thin crust pizza but it was still good . This place gets busy around 5 6 especially on the weekends.

Nice honey feel. Family friendly pub/restaurant. Everyone was welcoming. The place was clean. The pizza, salad, and pasta we had were good and well priced.

Pizzas are thin and charred. Chicken with jalapeno was terrific. Buffalo calamari was out of this world — fresh, light, flavorful, delightfully tangy. Service is delightful. The space is nothing special; akin to any other bar.

Always very attentive, friendly staff, although it can be difficult to get a seat and noticed by a waiter on occasion. Fantastic pizzas, and decent prices on booze. Definitely recommend for the small-town local vibe.

HAVEN'T BEEN TO LEE'S FOR AWHILE (YR+) & AFTER A GREAT PIZZA , PERFECT CALAMARIE & ICE COLD ROLLING ROCKS, I'M WONDERING WHAT TOOK ME SO LONG. LEE'S IS ONE OF THOSE OLD SCHOOL PLACES THAT JUST HAS THAT PERFECT "FEEL" THAT SAYS, "YES GLAD I'M HERE!" THE PIZZA & MANY OTHER ATTRACTIVE MENU ITEMS LEAVES YOU THINKING ABOUT GETTING SOME TAKE OUT MEALS OR GETTING BACK THERE SOON. I FOR ONE-WILL BE BACK SOON.

The place was dingy, table was dirty... whomever "cleaned" the table left some residual meal from the last costumer. The pie crust was good but my pizza topping, chicken parmesan, was dry and rubbery. My husband's Italian pulled pork bar pie was bland and soggy. We also ordered fried calamari and it never came...and that after a long wait. I still haven't fully digested the pizza after 10 hours. They have a good following so my review shouldn't hurt them. I don't think on coming back anytime soon. Prices are reasonable.

A hole in the wall local bar with the most outrageous thin crust crispy pizza. Do not leave until you try the White Clam pie.

You absolutely can't go wrong with this pizza. Thin crust heaven. The white clam pie is their signature and you should try it. I'll be back. Worth the trip from Manhattan. Cheers.
