Been hitting this spot ever since my girl moved in a block away and pizza is great every time. Cheese slice is my go to but they all good.

I tried the spicy buffalo chicken pizza and it was incredible. It was delicious and crispy. I would definitely recommend this place. The new owner and the staff members are also very sweet. Asides from that, the restaurant’s vibes itself are very welcoming and appealing. I love the cafe style but also restaurant mood that the place gives.

The best and most delicious pizza in Brooklyn! Their rainbow pizza is out of this world, mozzarella cheese, house made pesto sauce, vodka sauce and the most delicious tomato sauce I’ve tried, and a good tomato sauce makes the dish’ he made it on the spot all fresh for us!

Love that they have vegan pizza, slices too. It's so nice to have a chill spot to pickup pizza from. It's not blow your mind pizza, but it's great for a laid back neighborhood spot. Still need to try the salad with vegan chicken.

The buffalo chicken pizza was so good. It was the right temperature and it tasted amazing. The cheese just melts in your mouth and the crust isn't hard at all. The people were extremely kind and welcoming. I recommend going here if you want to find a good pizzeria.

Pretty bummed. Ordered boneless buffalo wings which inexplicably appeared as chicken tenders with a side of honey mustard. Paid 50 cents extra for blue cheese which didn’t appear. It’s like reading tea leaves with something like that. Out of buffalo sauce? So send tendies with honey mustard? I can appreciate the thought but maybe just reach out and say you don’t have any boneless buffalo wings tonight. Margarita pizza was weirdly room temperature and dry. Odd considering we live less than three blocks away. I wonder how long the pizza may have sat under a heat lamp before it was thrown in a box and sent my way. Similar story with the garlic knots. I try to give every pizza place in the neighborhood a shot here and there. I’m sure I’ll try it again. I’ll update my review if it’s any different.

I am sorry but I am not in agreement with 4 star reviews. N.Y. is PIZZA and if the square slice is not right whats the point in eating anything else. The dough was Tasteless I could only imagine when who ever has the Job to make the Dough is having a bad Day if it could be even worst. I am sorry if you LOVE NY PIZZA this is not it. I have not tried the Pasta dishes so have no comment on that. The one pro that I will give this place is they do keep a clean shop . This review is based on 3 visits in a span of 3 months. 😉 Enjoy!

Ridiculously overpriced toppings. You can buy a specialty pizza for $24 but if you custom design one with the same toppings it will be $48. There is obviously something wrong with their system. And the pizza is only mediocre. $5 for onions? $5 for garlic? Etc. Absolutely ridiculous.

Went to this pizzeria for the first time after being in the neighborhood for some years. I can say that they have regulars but after today I will not be a customer. The pizza was hard and the steak sandwich was also burnt, they also did not put the ingredients that I asked for on my sandwich. This was a waste of time and money for me. The food went in the trash.
