Best pizza / Chinese / Italian in NYC
Pizza: John%26#39;s, Lombardi%26#39;s, and if you are walking the Brooklyn Bridge-Grimaldi%26#39;s.
Chinese: Olli%26#39;s in Times Square is inexpensive, though not the verry best, Grand Sichuan International is good if you like Kung Pao with fresh killed chicken, Wu Liang Ye near Rockefeller Plaza, in the chinatown area Congee Village or the new Chinatown Brasserie might be fun.
Italian- Teenage boys like large portions so you may be good candidates for Carmine%26#39;s or English Is Italian where the food is served family-style. If you want toi try a Mario Batali place Otto is a lot of fun for families, and Lupa a little more refined.

Lombardi%26#39;s #1, John%26#39;s in Greenwich Villkage #2. Yummy yummy.
For pizza my favorite is Serafina%26#39;s. There are several in the city, one being on 61st between Madison and Park. I think their pizza is the most like you get in Italy. Eating there always reminds me of being in a piazza in Italy somewhere.
For Chinese I like Mama Buddha, on Hudson and 11th. It%26#39;s not glamorous but very good food, very fresh ingredients and very reasonable.
For Italian there are so many choices.
Do you want a traditional red sauce Italian?
There are high end, northern italian places.
For that I like Beppe.
For a more traditional more southern italian I like Johns of 12th st.
Like walking back to 1910.
My favorite Italian is Bamontes in Greenpoint/ Williamsburgh. If you want to take a short hop out of the city into Brooklyn this restaurant is amazing.
