See No Evil Pizza, the punk‑vibe, Michelin‑recognized spot tucked inside the 50th Street subway concourse, is heading above ground this spring with a new counter‑service slice shop at 11 Waverly Place in Greenwich Village. The street‑level sibling is built around oversized, 20‑inch thin‑crust pies meant for folding, backed up by a compact beer‑and‑wine lineup. For a crew that literally built its name underground, the move reads as a clear play to become a Village regular.
What They Will Serve
According to Time Out, the new See No Evil Slice concept will stick to 20‑inch thin‑crust pies built on what the team calls classic New York slice logic: a crisp base, a sturdy rim and enough structural integrity to survive a proper fold. The menu, Time Out reports, is set to include Calabrian chili‑honey wings, Sicilian pigs‑in‑a‑blanket and seasonal arancini, with counter service and a short list of beer and wine rounding out the offerings.
Licensing, Space and Hours
Public records list the venture under LB All Day LLC dba See No Evil, with the slice shop slated to take over roughly 1,100 square feet at the northwest corner of Mercer Street and Waverly Place, according to Community Board 2 materials. The application describes a layout built around food rails and counters, bringing seated capacity into the mid‑30s, and notes a request for a Restaurant Wine license that would cover beer and wine service. Community Board 2's November 20, 2025 resolution also references a notarized stipulations agreement that limits live music, outdoor seating and late‑night deliveries as part of the shop's method of operation.
From Subway to Street Level
The Waverly Place spot pulls the brand out of its current home in the 210 W. 50th Street subway concourse, a location the MICHELIN Guide has already called out for recognition. On its own site, See No Evil bills that original Times Square concourse shop as a punk rock pizza concept and lists the 50th Street address and regular operating hours. Community board filings identify Adrien Gallo and chef‑partner Ed Carew as the principals behind the new Waverly Place project.
Timing and What Is Next
An official opening date is still under wraps. Time Out notes that the owners have not yet announced a firm day for the launch. The operators are expected to move through the New York State Liquor Authority process following Community Board 2 review, with final hours and operating details to be locked in through those state filings.
If everything tracks, Greenwich Village is in line for a slice shop that builds on a subway success story, pairing fold‑friendly, large‑format pies with quick counter service and a tight beer‑and‑wine list. All that is left is the sign‑off from the Liquor Authority and an opening date to mark when those first giant slices start landing on Waverly Place.
