This was a very disappointing experience. The staff had a terrible attitude and were extremely rude and impatient. Asking simple questions felt uncomfortable because of how unfriendly they were. read more

Had this one bookmarked for awhile, but after eating it, I'm not sure why. Located in the busy section of Old Town Pasadena, finding parking can be tricky, but somehow I've found parking the last few times I went to this area, so I don't know what is going on. Just lucky I guess. As for pizza, they have round pies and square pies, as well as a bunch of sandwiches. I didn't get to try a sandwich, and I don't think I will because I really was not a fan of the pizza. We got an 18" round cheese pizza half with sausage. Also grabbed on square pie meat lover slice and one square pie grandmother slice (which is essentially a margherita). The pizzas weren't terrible overall, but unfortunately the crusts were truly awful. I'm not sure what they make them out of, but they have that cardboard consistency of frozen pizzas. I know they're freshly made, but their recipe for the crust is just not good, and that's a big problem for a pizza, especially when there are better places like Pie Life, Tomato Pie, and Mama's nearby. I wanted to love it, but as a real New Yorker, I can tell you this would be accepted in the Big Apple as acceptable pizza. Sorry, but I can't recommend and will probably not be back. read more

Ordered a couple of pizzas to go, heard a lot of good things. The Pepperoni Honey Deniro was great, crispy pan pie loaded with tons of pepperoni, the honey helps cut through the richness. The white mushroom was savory and definitive smell of truffle . Overall great pizzas. I look forward to trying the non-pizza offerings. read more

We were asked by my aunt to come by to have pizza at her place. She ordered the spicy pepperoni squared pizza with mushrooms and the classic New York Reuben. The pizza had great flavor but we were missing the crispiness of the crust. We actually really loved their Reuben sandwich. We ate it so fast that I didn't get to take a picture of it. I think if I get their pizza again, I will definitely have to eat it there read more

Brooklyn Square - Spicy Pepperoni Square Pie with Mushrooms - Pizza Near Me - Pasadena, California

Brooklyn Square (est 2022) pizza and deli store in Old Town Pasadena. They offer wide variety of NY style pizza. Indoor atmosphere was relaxing and staff was cordial and professional. Finding a great NY pizza in Pasadena or in LA in general is hard to find. I stumbled upon this pizza joint while I was walking aimlessly on the streets of Pasadena. I ordered a slice of their classic NY cheese pizza just to compare if it is as good as the real NY pizza that I am accustomed to growing up in Queens. After I took my first bite, it's almost as good as the orig nyc cheese pizza as well as it's size and cheesiness. Overall, it's a good pizza joint and I recommend this place. read more

always delicious & everyone's always very nice & helpful, would recommend!! can't go wrong with the bbq chicken or honey deniro!

Tasty pie! I haven't had the pleasure of having a slice of NY pizza yet but if it's similar to what I had here I can't wait! We ordered a cold Rueben Sandwich and an 18" NY Classic Cheese pizza. My kids love pizza and they ate their slice as quickly as it cooled down (they don't like their food hot). Nice music playing in the background and Home Alone on the TV when we arrived. You can park in the structure across the street or down on the surface street meter parking. They have a handicap lift to get up and down if you need. The only reason for the 4 instead of 5 stars is no high chairs for kids nor do they have a changing table in the restroom for kids. read more

If you look at the receipt, they add a surcharge...for using a credit card! Who doesn't use a credit card in today's world? The square pizza is like Digiorno's frozen pizza. The so-called Brooklyn pizza is not like anything in New York. The crust is crispy instead of floppy. All it's got going for it is that it's large and cheap. The place is small but has enough seating and few enough dine-in customers where seating is available. Extra cheese and pepper flakes are available. Lots of other pizza places out there, which is where you should go. read more

Wayyyy better than Prince street. And way better prices I'm sorry. I gotta tell the truth

Love love love Brooklyn Square. Our favorite pizza place in the Pasadena area. The pizzas are HUGE, made with quality ingredients, and a quick delivery order. Can't go wrong with a pepperoni pizza, but the grandma pizzas are really fun too. They serve pizzas by the slice in store too. But since parking in the area is pretty crazy, I usually order delivery. Even ordering pick up can be a challenge, so either go there in person by foot or bike, or order delivery out if you're near by. We have a friend from New York who agreed the pizza is NY legit! Highly recommend. read more

Excellent sandwich and pizza and very consistent with their quality. Maggie always provides swift and friendly service. Casual set up with the NY vibes, clean and organized. Will try their pasta next and explore their menu. read more

The food is great. I love the sicilian style pizzas. Their sauce is just right. They're employee Maggie was also very nice. She was very attentive and even went as far as removing jalapenos off of the pizzas after I told her that I didn't want the pizza to be spicy. I have been here before and will continue to come here in the future. read more

Have been going to Brooklyn Sq for over a year as part of our weekly pizza rotation - been meaning to write a review. Having spent time in NYC in the past, consumed my share of NY pizza, can say hands down that this is the closest to NY pizza I've had in a while. Cheese coverage is excellent. The sauce is flavorful and garlicky and the crust is chewy with a crunchy bottom. This place is a must try! read more

Ordered for several sandwiches for pickup. Service was friendly, place is spotless. I ordered a sandwich, but also got some slices while I was there. Sandwich was good and so was the pizza. Pizza was nicely cooked, crispy edges and bottom. I highly recommend. read more

Had the Italian Bada Bing with everything on it. When they brought the sandwich it was warm. Through me off because usually an Italian sub is served cold but ayeee I'm open to try new things.

This place is delicious, if you like spicy food, I 100% recommend the spicy nana penne. The pizzas are good too.

Brooklyn Square I would say is Pasadena's very good places to get pizza. I would say it is better than most places even in food rich Pasadena. They do have a number of speciality pizza both in Detroit style and traditional New York. We just get a simple cheese Pizza which runs about 26 dollars. It is enough to feed 4 people, it's a good New York style pizza. A good pizza to dip in ranch, service is very friendly. Lastly, they have a good rewards program if you end up coming multiple times like we do. read more

Brooklyn Square is a solid pizza joint with quality pizza and good portions. It's a bit on the pricier side, especially for a whole pizza, but it's definitely worth it if you're in the mood for good Brooklyn style pizza. I ordered a half/half square pie for pickup and the total came out to about $36. To be fair, the pizza was pre-cut into 8 slices and each slice was incredibly filling, so the pizza lasted me nearly a week. I did half grandma and half spicy vodka. The grandma is their square pie with crushed tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil. But don't let the simplicity fool you! As plain as it may sound, the Grandma was the embodiment of perfect comfort food. The Spicy alla Vodka pizza on the other hand is a bit fancier and comes with spicy creamy pink sauce, mozzarella, jalapeños, ricotta, and basil. The pizza was mouthwateringly delicious, to the point that I could not decide my favorite between the two. ****************** My Ratings: 1 Star: Terrible; just thinking about it makes me angry. 2 Stars: Wasn't a fan so Not likely to return. 3 Stars: Meh. Average. Might return if others drag me. 4 Stars: Yum! Likely to return. 5 Stars: Amazing! Would plan my day around it. read more

Brooklyn Square - Grandma + Spicy vodka pizza - Pizza Near Me - Pasadena, California

As a New Yorker, I'm disappointed. On the outside, it looks like NY pizza but the taste and texture isn't there. I personally wouldn't come here again based on my expectations for NY pizza. I tried the NY Cheese & Spicy Pepperoni Square. Overall, the dough was lacking for both. It was "stiff" & dry. The NY Cheese could have a bit more sauce. New Yorkers fold their cheese pizza and this one wasn't "flexible" on its own . It honestly reminded me of the dollar pizza places in NY. The Spicy Pepperoni flavor was a bit off for me. Similar to the Cheese pizza, the dough was lacking. We came around 3pm on a Saturday and it was dead. The place does accommodate handicap patrons since there are stairs inside. There is a parking garage across the street which is $1 for the first 2 hours. read more

Ordered the knickerbocker sandwich which has turkey and fried chicken and it was soo good! I am not one for sandwiches because I am a noodle girl, but I would come back for this sandwich again. My boyfriend ordered the peppermill turkey which he also agreed we would both come back for our sandwiches again. We ordered the zucchini sticks which was just alright, probably would opt for fries next time. We were able to customize our sandwiches to how we like. I really wish I ordered a pizza because the pizza looked bomb. read more

I wrote a review of Prince Street Pizza 3 years ago at the West Hollywood location, and I thought that pizza was one of the best pizzas I have ever had. Recently on Redditt, people were claiming that Brooklyn Square was better than Prince Street Pizza. So I decided to come here to see for myself. I got 4 slices of different pizza, and while they were good, they were not better than Prince Street Pizza. They were well crafted, good quality, sound ingredients that went into their pizza, but the damning thing was, there was something about these pizza slices that was unremarkable. Worst of all, these slices of pizza were the same price as Prince Street. Prince Street is worth every penny, but Brooklyn Square isn't. read more

The pizza was really good and the staff was very friendly. It was just super busy and kind of noisy in there. But it was a weekend night so I understand. It was towards the end of the day so the worker gave me a free slice of pizza when I ordered two. It was the last slice they had in there. They were about to close. Have nothing bad to say about this place, it's a pretty good dining establishment. read more

I was really hungry for a sandwich, specifically a New York style deli sandwich, and happened to walk to Brooklyn Square while traversing old town Pasadena. The space used to be a sushi store that was closed down for the longest time, so I was pleasantly surprised that it had changed to a Brooklyn style restaurant. I m did take out but there's plenty of space for indoor dining. Given the name of the restaurant I had to try the Brooklyn style shop pastrami, and a slice of pizza. They're still working on transferring their alcohol license so I grabbed a cream soda to help wash down all that food. The cashier was very helpful and providing recommendations and because I was the only customer for a while, gave me her full attention. I'll have to try their cookie next time but I think I will be coming back for another sandwich sometime soon. read more

This place was so good! Until it wasn't. I've ordered multiple times, more than happy to pay as much as it is because it was so good. However today I got the most disappointing order of spicy pepperoni and wings. One order of wings was completely dry and they were burnt. The pizza was made so sloppily with barely any sauce or pepperoni. Mostly just bread and cheese. It's sad because this place was so good. Won't be coming back again unfortunately. Hope this review saves someone from wasting their money. read more

Very solid pizza joint where you can buy decently-sized and tasty slices. I've only had NY pizza in New York once (and not in Brooklyn) so I'm not the last word on how these pizzas compare to ones from there. But I can say, that my family and I enjoyed the slices we got. We each got one slice of NY style cheese and one slice of the spicy pepperoni grandma. Both had crispy/chewy crusts and I would highly recommend both. Each slice was fairly big so one might have been enough had we not been so hungry. These slices are much bigger and imho tastier than the ones at nearby Pie Life for about the same price. read more

I was a bit skeptical about this place because the vibes did not hit at all. It was pretty quiet with country music playing which isn't something I've ever heard in a pizza shop. Got a few cheese slices and a granny square. Everything was pretty top notch compared to other restaurants I've visited. They're not greasy, cheese is perfectly distributed, etc. if you're looking for an actual NY slice, this is the place to go if you're in Glendale/Pasadena areas read more
