Great pizza! We are new to the area and tried Brother's Encore based on the Yelp reviews and were so happy. We opted for the 2 for $21 carry out special. The pizza was wonderful. Great crust, cheese and toppings. It even reheats in the oven perfectly the next day. Will definitely try dining in the restaurant for a date night. I look forward to exploring more of their menu. read more

Tried the white pizza -- decent, but the ricotta adds too much water to the crust and it tasted doughy. It would be way better with an alfredo sauce, or even their regular pizza sauce (although that would kind of trump the concept of a "white" pizza). That being said, the garlic knots = delish! The antipasto salad = holy crap huge and definitely worth the $13 they charge for it; it could easily feed 2-3 people. Got our kiddo the mac & meatballs & cheese. Let me say, for $5, he got his fill and then some! The meatballs (which he normally loves but wouldn't eat for some reason) were fantastic and we even brought them home with us! All in all, for $40 we brought home half a salad, the kid's meatballs, and most of the pizza! The service was fantastic and the prices are on par with the size and quality. I only dock 1 star because of the white pizza not being quite what I was expecting. We are looking forward to returning to try other items from the menu. read more

This is a great little cheers bar on one side and a very nice family eatery on the other. The family side does events for kids and has even had a kids karaoke. The bar side is great, the bartender Ian is great and introduces everyone to you if you sit at the bar. They have bands and karaoke nights. HH is 1.99 draft beer and they have free chips and salsa from 4-7pm. read more

Pizza is pretty good but the Friday karaoke is the beat in town! If only that one speaker would get turned around so people in the back could hear!!! Great, fun times and so close to home. read more

This review is for Brother's Encore as an alternative to Subway. Lemme explain. From high school to my post-college years, I ate Subway regularly. "One six inch Steak and Cheese on wheat and one Deli-Style Seafood and Crab sandwich, please." Yup. That was my go-to order. Some may convulse at the thought of a Seafood and Crab Sandwich from Subway (the last time I ate one, I had bad gas for at least two days...), but truth be told, I would probably still eat one. I digress. Eventually, I branched out and started my "I'm gonna try everything on every menu" phase. And eventually, I grew tired of Subway. Now, I look for local joints at every opportunity, and I pretty much avoid Subway unless it is the only option. Although, that Seafood and Crab does sound good... No, David. Do not do it. Where was I? Ah yes. So today, as I headed for a quick hike, I needed to grab a couple of sandwiches on my way to the woods. "Hmmm. There's a Subway nearby... Local joint... I heard this Brother's place has good subs." I called ahead and ordered an Italian Hoagie Supreme and Encore's Club Sub. Picked up the order. Drove for 30 minutes. Hiked for an hour. Drove back home. I gave the Italian Hoagie Supreme to my friend. And I don't know if it was because I was hungry from the hike or what, but holy smoke, did I ever demolish that Club. It was fantastic. Even after sitting in my car for two hours. Now tell me, who can boast that their subs are good after sweating in a car for a couple of hours? Not many places. But Brother's can. I propose they make that their motto. "Subs better than Subway, even after sweating in cars." It just occurred to me that I'm lucky I didn't get food poisoning. Heck, even if I did though, it would've been my own dang fault, and the sub was still great. I can't wait to go back and try the food they're actually known for. Italian being the obvious first choice. Until that happens, though, they will be my Montclair alternative to Subway. read more

The food is great here and the staff is friendly. Buttttt...... The first and last time that I was there, I left with a migraine from the decor. Seriously though, are the mirrors necessary? read more

Great service great prices on beer... good vibes all around ... get one of the best slices of pizza in Woodbridge

Great local restaurant. Location and ease of getting a table are a few of the reasons my family enjoys dining there. Not a huge fan of their pizzas but they do make an amazing pepperoni roll. Their marinara and Alfredo sauces are delicious and the garlic knots are to die for! Wish they would offer a half size of their speciality salads. Check your mail for coupons as they are typically advertised in the clipper magazines. read more

I do not see a pizza menu here...BUT, let me tell you about my visit today. I took my granddaughter here after school--last day of 2nd grade!! Yay!! We walked in, and there were not many people seated...a few singles mostly my age. I asked one man how the food is and he gave me a thumbs up! Ok!! We seated ourselves and looked through the menu and settled on pizza. Their 'specials' all had onions and mushrooms which my granddaughter doesn't like so we ordered a gluten-free with pepperoni, sausage, black olives, anchovies and spinach. I believe I read that the $14 gluten-free only came in large and there is a $2 extra charge. Ok. When we were served the smallest 'large' pizza I have ever seen, I was ok because my little companion was excited . ..Now, when I got the check I almost keeled over. The pizza was $14 PLUS $2.25 for anchovies, $2.25 black olives, $2.25 pepperoni, $2.25 sausage (?), $2.50 spinach. The lemonade was $2.50---- and I feel like I was violated. The pizza was ok--it just was certainly not worthy of the price I was charged!!.. I won't EVER go back. read more

Amazing New York style pizza! The sauce is simply amazing. My go to pizza spot in the local area. Never disappointed, always deliver excellence! read more

Best dessert in town , authentic and delicious Italian place , owner are Italian so they make sure customers get an Italian experience , nice family own business restaurant and great place for family, great customer service read more

The corned beef and cabbage are served in large portions and cut as they ought to be. The bartenders do an excellent job of taking care of the patrons! The beer selection is minimal, but the bartenders do the best they can to keep clientele happy. It is nice that there is a separate dining area from the bar which makes the experience child friendly. As a company they are involved in the community and offer special events for attendees including karaoke, live bands, and themed events (especially on St. Patrick's Day). The best way to be aware of such on goings is to utilize their Facebook page which posts the schedule of events and bands weekly (approximately). Coming to Brother's on St. Patrick's Day has become a tradition amongst my friends due to reasonable prices on food, drinks, and the addition of entertainment! read more

Won't be eating at this nightmare again. If you got two hours to wait for food that's cold, horrible, overpriced and only part of what you ordered eat here. Amazing the place stays in business. Must be that there are two few good places to eat and delivers. Try Astoria they don't deliver but the foods good. read more

This place was decent. Nothing to write home to mom about. I had the reuben. I make far better reubens myself but it was an average sandwich. They were a little stingy with the corned beef though. My son had the pizza. Once again I make better pizza at home. It was rather bland. The service was okay. I wouldn't go out of my way to return here. read more

This is my second time coming in to get the lunch special. Both times were delicious. I've been looking for a good sub shop in the area other than Padrinos n Dumfries and this is the place. Will definitely come back. And they have crinkle cut fries read more

Our waitress was very efficient and polite. We ordered chicken parm and eggplant parm. It was delicious ! The rolls were homemade and delicious. The prices were very reasonable. I would recommend this venue. We were just passing thru on our way back to NY. read more

Food is pretty good but the customer service is terrible! Do not order delivery. Cause they will mess up your order then when you call about it they will be rude and get no where. They will not even rectify the situation and the yell at you and call you a liar then hang up. There any a number of other restaurants with better food and service with better prices. read more

Authentic Italian food, I think not. Fabulous Italian American food, no. Good Italian American food, sure. The restaurant does have its fan base because it's been here a long time. I'm just not one of them. I find the food here uninspiring. The service is friendly though. read more

I'm not a fan of all the sauce they put on their pasta, though I could just ask for less That said, I finally broke down and tried one of their subs (the Philly Sausage sub), and it was very good. Karaoke Night on Fridays is always a blast and if you're into performance art, then Wednesday is a night for you. The bar can get a little cramped very early, so if you have a big group make sure not to get there early enough or you might not have a seat, let a lone a table. Overall, decent atmosphere and good food. read more

Had our daughter's 18th birthday party in the Pub (early afternoon) Good food, great portions. Reasonable pricing Server was AMAZING!!! (sadly can't remember her name) Made sure everything was perfect. Was very attentive and accommodating! As the regulars came in, most of them were nice and wished her happy birthday and even played some songs for her! Was a wonderful way to celebrate her special day! Can't thank the server enough! (although we had a dinner meal, I have to say that their pizza is THE BEST- closet to New York style I have ever found!) read more

Come for the fountain, stay for the food and family-friendly atmosphere. We came here looking for pizza after a cold yet rewarding hike through Prince William Forest Park and Brother's Encore! did not disappoint. My companion ordered the Chicken Marsala, which left something to be desired both in taste and appearance, while I ordered a gluten-free white pizza with extra salami for good measure. Any pizza, let alone gluten-free, is hard to nail in the DMV, as my Long Island-born-and-raised friend pointed out, but Brothers' hit the spot. Great service as well! read more

Greatest pizza ever! It's a Montclair gem! You will not regret. Get the meat pizza with everything on it. I promise you won't regret it

One of my favorite restaurants! Their pizza is the best. I can't even describe it! I don't really order anything else besides that and their Caesar salad, but those are amazing. read more

The authentic Italian food at this place is second to none!! Everything we've ordered so far has been delicious!! Pizza crust is crunchy, sauce in everything is fresh and amazing!! I highly recommend this restaurant for dine in and take out!!!!! read more

Food was amazing. I got a small Caesar salad and 2 slices of NY style pizza and fries. I was starving from driving 6+ hours through state lines and stopped here to get dinner. Facility was clean, food was ready within 10 mins, staff was nice and accommodating, pizza tasted like NY time square pizza. Overall 100% recommend to anyone, just wish I lived closer! read more

Just moved to the area and was running some errands with the family on Friday 2/3/2017 . Decided to stop in for a bite and oh my was i suprised! This place is a gem! The ladies were extremely friendly! The service was amazing! Oh and let me tell you! THE FOOD WAS AMAZING! I personally had a pineapple ham pizza pie hands down the best i've had in a while! It was so fresh and it came with this lovely greek salad that i adored! We all enjoyed our meal and our visit will not be the last! I will tell all my friends and family to come try for themselves! But this place gets a A+++ in my book! Thank you for your service and hospitality! read more

I am Italian and have always wanted a family run, authentic Italian spot to go to in the neighborhood. You can always judge by the sauce, bread and meatballs to know if it's legit or if it came from a frozen food distributor. These guys are legit! I had the fettucine with white clam sauce and my hubby had lasagna with glasses of Chianti. Also, our 1 yr old loved the meatballs with pasta and cheese. I took tiramisu home and enjoyed it later that night. It was great and even the owner came by to check in and play with the baby. This place was great and there's even a pub next door which you can't hear from the restaurant. This is definitely a nice, friendly neighborhood hangout! read more

We came here with our LO and grandparents on a Friday night. The staff were very accommodating and the pizzas were fantastic--great taste and price! The restaurant doesn't look like much on the outside, but the decor is quite nice and gives a very open feel on the inside. The fountain in the middle is a nice touch. read more

Brothers is one of the best pizza places I've ever been to! Yet one of the orders messed up it's still great. I recommend the calzones if your really hungry. The scenery is beautiful,the bathroom is clean,the seats are comfortable,and the servers are nice. If you want great Italian food go to brothers. read more

We love it here! You can't beat prices and portions...and food is good, too! Great pizza or split the massive Stromboli. Eggplant Parmesan was tasty and huge. Service is always friendly and accommodating. Sure, there's a cheesy fountain in the middle, but alot of the suburban Italian restaurants around here do same or worse. It's clean, has a great dessert selection and we leave stuffed and happy. read more

Good food but horrific service. We came as part of a spirit night for our son's school but in the end this was a bad decision. We arrived at 6p, ordered at 6:20p and got our pizza at 7:40p with no apologies but a few lame excuses about how they were busy. All the while multiple tables around us that were seated after us were receiving their food before us. There were no offers from the staff to make amends, comps, etc. and again almost no apologies just excuses. We had to request a manager at which point they sent out a line chef who still didn't offer anything. Needless to say, if you still decide to go, the Quattro Gusti pizza was tasty but a bit watery. But we will not be eating there again. read more

Shopping plaza mall is the home of this fake Italian restaurant. Interior is the tackiest I've ever seen! Square mirrors stuck to the wall and fake arch decor along with a fountain in the middle which just screams cheese! This place got stuck in the 80s. My corona arrived with an old brown lime. My eyes kept scrolling thru the long menu, and I just couldn't pick anything decent. Finally we opted for an appetizer platter and manicotti. Appetizer platter was full of fried chunks of mushrooms and mozarella sticks, and the side sauce looked too red to be tomato. The fried batter layer was soo thick, and soaked in oil, it unpleasantly burst in the mouth. When my dinner plate arrived the waiter warned about it being hot, and I just accidentally brushed my arm against it and, Damn, I burnt myself and later even had a scar on my arm. The blob of melted cheese covered the pasta, unreal. It's time to get legal protection and stay away from this place for good. read more

My daughters t ball team was going to have a pizza party at the restaurant. Once we all got there, they told us, including the manager, that they could not accommodate all of us. The place wasn't even busy! I was shocked and very disappointed. We ended up next door to Dominoes pizza and ordered pizza from them. Do yourself a favor, find another local pizza place that will want to do business with you. I will never go back there again!!!! read more

Real NYC Italian food with exceptional service in the wilderness of Northern Virginia.

Good place for a family dinner when not in a rush and don't need anything over the top. The kids will gobble up the food and you'll pay a price that will make you happy. Pizza seemed to be the best on the menu and if we return, I'll indulge in more of the same. read more

This restaurant serves the most amazing italian food!! They have a 2for1 pizza special where you can get either two extra large pizzas with one topping or two large pizzas with two toppings , for $21! The garlic knots and only $4 and are a MUST-ORDER!!! The tuscan chicken is a pasta dish that is to die for! They deliver in the montclair area, but if you don't live in montclair, you should definitely go in for carryout or dining in because the cashiers and servers are all about the customers and provide great customer service and are very friendly!!!!! read more

We have been going to Brother's since they opened. They have the best pizza and we are from NY so we know our pizza. The main dishes are great too. read more

We've been back to Brother's many times. The pizza and pasta are still outstanding. Now we're stuck on the all meat pizza. We substitute bacon (that makes for double bacon) over the ground beef and add extra cheese. The pie is incredible. Highly recommend Brothers! read more

This was the worst pizza I have ever spent money on. It was flavorless and soggy, and it fell apart at the touch. Gross! It looked and tasted like a child made it with no parental supervision. Take your business and your appetite elsewhere. read more
