The TMNT Universe Spans Eras for Hungry Fans

When the 80's comic book series broke into the mainstream with theTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animated series and eventual live-action movies, scores of fans from Gen X to Gen Alpha have grown up with the crime-fighting brothers with a love for pizza. Since their debut, there have been more animated shows, video games, comics, more live-action movies, and the recent hit animated film blockbuster franchise. So it makes sense to have seen fans raised on the 80s hit, including multi-generational families with toddlers, lining up last weekend for the opening.

The establishment captures that early '90s peak TMNT cartoon vibe with arcade games, exclusive streetwear, and toy collectibles. In an Instagram reel, comedy content creator and animation voice actor, Jenny Lorenzo (Jellystone!) shared, "The pizza, mocktails, merch, decor...all of it was awesome."

Expect to Pay for an Experience, Not Just a Slice

Over Father's Day weekend, this writer's TMNT fan husband was treated to a trip, and it's absolutely dad-approved. The hubs got a slice of Raphael's Pepperoni Bash (cost $7.50), which folded perfectly into an NY-style slice when pulled, and a fountain Coke. I particularly enjoyed the Mutagen Mushroom (cost $8.50), which was cheesy with the right amount of umami mixed with ricotta and topped with a zesty lemon cream. Washed it down with an Orange Bandana Margarita (cost $16), which packed a powerful punch. The total spent on food wasn't that bad, but as nerds, the merch haul got our wallets.

Together, they sought a way to get their pies as close to NY slice standards as possible, even tinkering with the local water pH to match Manhattan's. But not to expect something like basil leaves on pies, as Womack told THR he "couldn’t see Donatello eating," inspiring clever ways to add flavor like basil by drizzling olive oil with it to emulate TCRI ooze on creamy stracciatella, so it glows. You know, old-school tricking kids (and adults) into eating something good they'll like if it's packaged in a fun way.
