grandma pizza
Sravya V.

Of all the popular pizza places I've tried in NYC so far, Ace's is my favorite. They have plenty of topping combos, so everyone can find something they enjoy. The standout to me is the dough / crust of the square pizza, in that it is bready and chewy, but light with a nice crisp on the bottom. We tried the grandma pizza (pictured), as well as the pepperoni pie with hot honey and the mushroom pie. All were fantastic, though my favorite was the grandma for the delicious combination of the sauce, basil, and sausage. I'm usually not the biggest fan of pepperoni, but their cup style pieces with hot honey in it were enjoyable! I can't wait to come back and try more toppings. Unlike some of the other frequented spots in Brooklyn, Ace's has a good amount of both indoor and outdoor seating! We ordered ahead, so service was efficient. We had changed our mind last minute to try and eat in, but the staff were not able to accomodate the change so we took our food to a nearby outdoor public seating area.

Absolutely loved the food. The white pizza was incredible. Loved the flavor and the crunch cheese crust was amazing. The chicken wings were also pretty good as well. Would definitely recommend.

Personal pepper trio
Alana K.

My friend and I came here on a Saturday night around 8:30pm. It was busy, but we only waited about 5 minutes for a table. I had the pepper trio pizza, which was topped with pickled jalapeños, green bell peppers, and sweet cherry peppers). It was sweet and a little spicy. Very delicious (and filling!).

It was Halloween, and some shocking fun was had in the bathroom.

I loved this place! Fun, funky vibe, no pretense, and GREAT pizza. I would call the pizza 'Detroit style'. - rectangular and closer to a deep dish pizza as opposed to thin crust. However, it was very light and flaky - not heavy and dense. Perfectly cooked - lots of yummy crusty cheese. Great sauce and flavoring, too!

Small Greek Salad
Benjamin C.

The last thing on our Summer To-Do list was to eat at Ace's pizza! We made that dream come true on Saturday at 5pm. Made a reservation in case it became busy, but not sure we needed to. People are super friendly with a great vibe. Love the feeling of visiting my neighbor's basement in 1989. Our server recommended the wings and Greek Salad - went with a small one. Very much nostalgic vibes of a salad from the midwest. If you like that sort of thing, then delicious! She (server) strongly recommended the spicy boiiiii (correct spelling according to the check) with vodka sauce, which we had on a medium split with buffalo chicken. She was right - we should have done the whole thing as that one. Buffalo chicken was good, but oddly, felt a little too healthy. (Maybe it was the celery.) Ordered a medium pepperoni for the kids. It had hot honey on it, which we didn't order or want, but luckily the kids only complained a little. Interesting note, when the server looked at our food, she was surprised to see basil leaves on the spicy boiiii! I kind of like the "who knows what you're going to get" situation out of my neighbor's basement food. (Reminds me of Seinfeld with the rubber band in the soup - PACO!) A note on quantity - we could probably have eaten another 2 medium pizzas, because they feel light and airy. But once we settled, 2 mediums and a salad was fine for our family of 5 (kids 10,7,2) We (not kids) shared a draft hazy IPA (Lagunitas), which was tasty. Another interesting thing to share, which has no bearing on anything, was that the level of condensation on our water cups was off the charts. The table was covered in water, and I went through a lot of napkins. No idea why! Overall, had a great time! We would definitely go back.

Spinach Artichoke Veggie Garden Hawaiian Cheeseburger
Vishnu G.

This was some of the best Detroit style pizza I've ever had. We had two medium pizzas - I tried one that was half spinach artichoke and half veggie garden. The other was half cheeseburger and half Hawaiian. The crust was crispy, airy, and buttery, without being too overwhelming. The red sauce had a touch of sweetness, and the cream sauce was rich without being too much so. I enjoyed the range of toppings available. A side of Calabrian chili pesto also helped add some variety as well. My friends enjoyed the other pizza, with a special nod to the cheeseburger. The two pizzas were enough for three of us. The bill came to about $27 each ($81 total) with tax and tip, which was totally worth it.

Pepperoni personal pie
Jillian B.

Know I've written a review here a few years ago, but wanted to provide an update - Ace's still slaps, and continues to be one of my favorite pizza joints in NYC! Their pepperoni slice is still my favorite (the peps crisp up sooooo nicely) and the edges on the crust are divine. My friend and I recently tried the honey jalapeño garlic bread for the first time and omg.... it was delicious. Excited to keep coming back and trying other menu items I haven't yet!!!

Azam K.

Love this place. I love the detroit style pizza. Super fluffy, edge pieces have a great crisp, and the ingredients on the pizza were fresh. Service is fast and makes you feel like you are at a local pizza joint anywhere in the US. The restaurant has fun pictures around, decent indoor space, and funny knick knacks. Favorites were the hot pepper ones and artichoke while my friends enjoyed the pepperoni.

Pizza box so cute

Food was amazing, we had the hot wings and they were good and juicy! Their pizza was also delicious we will definitely be back. Also great to go with kids they have games and space Service is amazing very friendly

Pizza!

Cheese (Personal)
Pratima M.

A FIRE Detroit-style square slice in a classic retro ambiance -- the Williamsburg location is a short walk from the L. The pizza itself is SO GOOD, a pillowy crust with a crispy outside and perfectly sauced. The Jalapeño Cheesy Bread is delicious, but felt very similar to the pizza -- not sure that I'd get both again. Note that the bar seats can get a bit chilly whenever the doors are opened, but otherwise great service and great food if you're in the mood for something that isn't a classic NY slice.

Stopped by here a couple of days ago, while purposely touring Williamsburg to test out some of the top-ranked pizzerias in Brooklyn. My favorite part of this visit was honestly the vibe and the friendly atmosphere. We were tempted at first to grab some pizza to go, but once we got inside we decided to have a proper sit-down experience - and I'm glad that we did. The interior is super cozy and fun, with lots of 90s paraphernalia all over the place (VHS tapes, Etch-a-sketch, hungry hippos, and more). Their staff are really nice and accommodating - not just for us, but especially for other customers who had a whole variety of needs (a couple families came in with kids and strollers, one couple had an adorable and well-trained dog, and everyone got seated and taken care of despite logistical hurdles). We got a seat in 0.2 seconds. For the pizza itself: I've never had genuine, authentic Detroit-style deep-dish pizza before, and I'm not sure if that's what I just had at Ace's - but whatever I ate, it was solidly good (and super filling). We got the Vodka Meatball and the Pepperoni pizza, at their smallest portions available; realistically, a single "small" deep dish pizza slice will likely be enough for most people. Probably took about 10 minutes for our food to be served once we ordered, which was nice. Price-wise, it wasn't a bad deal - we spent about $30 for two servings, tip included. Not exactly super-cheap but definitely not as expensive as some other hyped pizzerias - and again, you'll likely be full when you're done. The flavor wasn't QUITE as amazing as we'd hoped for, based on other reviews and general hype - but it was still tasty and we were happy with what we ordered. If someone suggested "let's grab some pizza at Ace's" in the future, sure wouldn't say No.

Brittney P.

Been waiting to go here for a while and it was definitely worth the wait. Got 3 different kinds of pizza to try. Pepperoni, cheeseburger and the pepper trio. All of them were so good. I recommend getting a personal size of different pizzas because it comes with two slices and you can share and try different flavors. The service was quick here and we were able to walk up and get a spot easily on a busy thursday night. we chose to sit outside because the weather was great and they still had music playing out there and fast service, Will definitely come back.

I tried looking up this pizza from Target Richfield for a review, but it sent me to the NYC location, so forgive me if this review is in the wrong thread. Anyway, wow. I've been to New York City and ate at the original Joe's Pizza. What an epic slice of pizza. Now back home in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the great white north of snow that never ends, I finally tried the frozen Di Fara pepperoni pizza from Target no less. Sorry Joe's, but this is on par with your pizza (if it was frozen). Dave Portnoy was right with his high review. This pizza is very good. The thick cut pepperoni, great basil, and the crisp chewy crust was excellent for a frozen pizza. Nice under carriage as well. I cooked the pizza at 480 degrees in an electric pizza oven for 10 minutes, and the result was very good. I added a drizzle of hot honey, and it was spectacular (okay, I also added some fresh picked jalapeños as well). The pizza was hot and melted in the center, and the crust was very crisp, but still had some chew. Wow. This was the best frozen pizza I have had. Bar none. New York, you spoiled me when it came to pizza. Now I can get a taste of New York at home. Great job! I may or may not eat the last 3 pieces currently sitting in the fridge before bed.

He would pull the pans with his bear hand out of the oven and generously drizzle olive oil from a rustic copper container over every pie. He would then meticulously inspect the dough for bubbles. Then pop back in the oven for the imported olive oil to permeate and create a beautiful glistening coat. And once cooked he would then graciously cut basil on top of the pie. Dom has now passed but his legacy continues. I've always compared the then pie vs now. And like most things,, nothing beats the original. This is still a very good slice. I once rated them as the best in NYC. Unfortunately, its not at the very top but still on the podium. Coming back feels like you are saying hello to an old friend. If you haven't been, you have to try at least once.

We ordered a whole pie half plain and half pepperoni, which is only $2.50 more. What I notice right away is the zesty tomato sauce, which Has love. However, I must admit that the crust was a bit too hard for my taste. Yes! It was crispy, but biting through it was somewhat difficult. Overall a good slice, but maybe the dough was off a bit that day. Regardless, Luigi's Pizza is an institution and I will be back again next time I'm in the area. Hopefully, I get a great slice like the ones I remember from the past.

Many pizzas do not reheat well due to rubbish cheese- not L&B- pop it in the oven around 400°F, and let it crisp back up! Also- the Spumoni- it keeps at a nice consistency in the freezer, unlike rubbish American ice cream- which gets like a rock. The only other Spumoni I buy is from Corona. They're both phenomenal in their respective rights. When asked by non-NY'ers which pizza is my favourite- this is number one for Sicilian- not heavy at all. The crust is light, airy, and flavourful. The cheese to sauce ratio is perfect- not swimming in greasy cheap cheese. I have the same standards for Neapolitan Pizza. We can discuss that elsewhere. Please never close shop- at least let's celebrate the centenary!

Expensive though, about $55 dollars for a vegan 18-inch Margherita pie with 3 toppings. Was it worth it for the experience? Yes.

Maybe (?) once in a while as a treat with price being the only barrier. Service 5/5: This was great. I came here the other day to inquire about their vegan pizza and just wanted to try a slice. The person found his manager to talk to me about this. They were super friendly and explained to me the situation. This location only sold vegan options in full pies and their other DOP Fast Life location does sell vegan slices, but they didn't try to push me to buy. I came back today and the staff today were also very welcoming. Ambiance 5/5: Rustic red brick interior with warm lighting. It was definitely bustling on a Friday night. Food 5/5: Delicious pizza. I do regret that I ate it cold after driving 30 minutes to pick it up so I did not get the full experience. But the crust was still crunchy. I do wish the toppings were a little heavier but the tomato chunks in the sauce tasted very fresh. A very classic New York style pizza and I couldn't even tell it wasn't real cheese.

Fresh mozzarella, a nicely thin crisped crust, sweet tomato sauce, and fresh basil makes this simple pizza taste great. The fried calamari also impressed. It tasted notably fresh--light, clean, and not overly chewy like pre-frozen versions can sometimes be. While I can't say for certain, it had that just-prepared quality that makes a difference. The Caprese salad was a great way to start the meal, with fresh tomatoes, creamy burrata, and a balsamic drizzle was a nice light start. The atmosphere leans old-school Italian, which adds to the charm and character. Service was fine--nothing remarkable, but no major issues either. That said, my overall rating takes a big hit solely for the restaurants ridiculous tipping policy choices rather than the food itself. The automatic 20% gratuity added to the bill was frustrating. The menu does indicate that 18%, will automatically apply, or will be 20% for parties of six or more. We were only three people, so it felt inconsistent and unnecessary. On top of that, the added cost for credit card usage didn't help. I don't mind tipping for good service! In fact, I tip well--but I prefer having the choice and I'm old school so it's the principle of the matter. Being forced into it, takes away from an otherwise enjoyable meal. Bottom line: the food is strong and worth trying, but the billing practices leave a bad taste. If those were adjusted, this could easily be a higher-rated experience.
