Artichoke Basille's Pizza has opened in Midtown Manhattan at1410 Broadway on 39th Street. The newest addition to the Artichoke Pizza empire is located just a few blocks from Times Square in the heart of New York City, where the brand now operates a dozen total stores, a news release said. 

"Everyone sees Times Square as the center of New York City, and we're thrilled that Artichoke Basille's Pizza is finally open in such a popular, buzzing area," Francis Garcia, the brand's co-founder and co-owner, said in the release. "We're ready to start serving our authentic, New York-style slices and pies to everyone passing through Midtown, from local New Yorkers who know and love us, to the thousands of tourists who take their first bite of Artichoke at this shop."

The 1,100-square-foot Times Square takeout restaurant is modeled after the original Artichoke Basille's Pizza location in East Village, which opened in 2008 with exposed brick and tin. The menu will feature slices and whole pies in eight varieties. 

Artichoke Basille's has 16 locations nationwide in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and California, and the brand said it has more than 10 units in development nationwide.
