Original Pizza Avenue L Reviews
Very good pizza. Nice and fresh. The best pizza in town. And the Canarsie Courier Newspaper is great.
Brings back the good ol days. All it needs is an arcade machine where you pop in a quarter and feel like you warped into the 90's pizzeria place of brooklyn. The Original Pizza of Ave L is truly what its name says it is. Original Italian Pizza 🍕 with plenty of Options and Choices on the Menu from Calzones to Spinach Rolls and of course you can get that Grandma Slice your craving for. The Prices are a little higher compared to other Pizza places but Given its location and Demograph of the ever so changing Brooklyn Atmosphere. People come from far away places to get a taste of Brooklyn....or what Brooklyn used to be.... cash or zelle no cards atm
Great place to grab a slice of pizza with a home like feeling.
Great Pizza and still taste the same. Have been coming here since I was a teenager.
They have the BEST pizza. A regular cheese pie is now $24 if you are at the restaurant. If you have it delivered, it will be $26. It may seem pricey, but I've paid more at other places. This pizza is scrumptious!!😋 😋 😋 😋 😋
Today was brick like Alaska , so I rescinded to order a pie , since I had cash n recalled they still did cash delivery . Boy first off th e pie was 23 bucs for just cheese, so if imma jump out the window for a pricey pie might as well get pepperoni. The total came to 28 buc . Ok I still had to muster up a tip for delivery guy . Boom the dude over the phone said 45 minutes , boom 45 minutes later the delivery guy is outside my house . Pizza is worth every penny, the crust was crunchy , the sauce was that authentic New York style tomatoe taste n lets me not forget the oil from the cheese . Classics New York style pizza : The Brooklyn way ! . Totally a rare gem to find now a days
Good pizza but five dollars for a slice is too much.
The people here are so nice. I went here because of good friend of mine in Brooklyn always goes here to get his pizza. I just never ate from there so this was my first experience. I bought a cheese slice and a beef patty for me and my daughter. I grew up in the Bronx and Queens eating pizza. Unfortunately this was the worst pizza I've had. My daughter bit into it first and spit it out into a napkin. Then I tried it and was so disappointed. It just wasn't good at all. The beef patty taste like something that came out of a box. Again I can't say enough nice things about the people that work here but I would never go back for the food.
Pizza is okay ive had better , very thin no under carriage just flop no crunch ,n not enough sauce.
Why is it so expensive in here? Bro I order 2 pizza slice it was like $8.00. How is it cheaper to buy a box than a few slices that makes no sense when I used to come here after school they slices were $2 each which wasn’t really crazy at the time but nowadays y’all too greedy at this point can’t even shop here no more. It’s not even like the pizza is going to fill me up either. Y’all need to calm down with these prices.
I ordered 8 slice Sicilian $23.50w a bottle of pepsi the driver says total is 32.00 pizza is 25.50 and soda 4.50 this still only adds up to $3] I call there, I tell him his math is wrong he's disrepectful I'm told to shut up will never call there again now he's texting me and threatening me, saying don't eat any food from any deliveries,, wat kind of crazy person works there. BE CAREFUL CANARSIANS
Place has been there forever. Staff is nice enough but the pizza is hit or miss. Sometimes a thick crust and delicious. Sometimes it’s so oily I have to soak it up with a napkin, which I find rather gross. Sometimes it is so thin there are holes in the pie. And now it’s $4.25 a SLICE?!! There are still 99 cents a slice places in the city! Plus what kind of pizza place in Brooklyn doesn’t sell Italian ices?!!!
