The canned soda are $2.00 (for a 12oz can) at the 9th ave location, it’s been a few months but I don’t recall fountain service. So make that $4.50 for 2 and a drink, at least you have change from your $10 to go get lunch at a street cart if you save some of the soda.

$2.00 is what a 300% mark up? Some recession special.

I wonder how their pricing scheme will work out. Sure, it seems smart to keep people from buying 6 individual slices to beat the new pie price… but at most places they set the prices so the per slice cost is LESS when you buy MORE.

Anyway, so this sounds like two slices and a coke for $3.50

When you put it like that, it sounds super meh.

The pizza is great, just way overpriced. No fashion ass at the 9th avenue spot either.

So cut to the chase, does anybody know if the pizza is any good?

To eater:

If you look closely, the sign says that it’s 99 cents for the first slice and $1.50 for each additional slices.

To DubbinBklyn:

The slices at Lazarras are generally on the small side. I’m not a large eater but need 3 slices to fill me up.

As small as those slices are I think that should be the going rate. How much is a soda?

@eater – I love it. Just like a Midtown Lunch’er to try and find the price loophole. You make me so proud…

Correction, if 3 soda purchases are required, the pie is cheaper.

According to my math, if you buy 6 slices al a carte (even if you have to buy 3 sodas to qualify for the purchase), the total is cheaper than that 6 slice pizza for $8.99. Or, are the pie slices larger than the 99 cent ones? I guess it depends on the size of the pie.

The Salt is Dandruff.

Don’t even ask what the choccy flakes on the expresso are made from.
