Pizza is not my go to; not ever. I was truly determined to give this place a try after hearing my Uncle rave that this is the best sicilian slice in Brooklyn. As you know, being the pizza snob I am, I decided to call his bluff and order a whole pie to my house. If this pie can not only appease me but my highly picky pizza lover 5 year old, then we would be onto something. I ordered and it arrived close to an hour later, which I could understand distance wise. I will say - this Sicilian slice is like you're back in 1996 - forget about 2016 as everyone else is trending - you WANT 1996 pizza greatness. It's soft with a crunch of a bite. Just enough sauce to cheese ratio. I watched my son plow through 2.5 slices....he's FIVE. My in-laws who partook in the pie also agreed that this place was hype back in their day, and still to this day. I can eat this pie all day long - like - WFH all day long and eat this myself. I will have to come here one day and pick this pie up to go myself, but truly, who needs L&B when you have here?! read more

Place was empty at 1:00. I've been here before and didn't have a fond memory but decided to return. Yes, I remember now, it wasn't great. Sicilian is ok but not memorable read more

Visited again. Had chicken parmesan. Was very good. Roll tasted good. Service was also very good. Looking forward to return.

Absolutely amazing food here. The foods I got were very fresh, cheesy, saucy, and garlic packed with flavor. My only complaint is that it was pretty oily and the seating is kind of dirty but if you're in the area, this one is amazing option hands down for nonpizza options. I'm not sure about their other items but these were amazing and at a great price as the portions were also huge! read more

Excellent pizza, delicious rice balls, classy staff. Location is good, right on a busy stretch of 18th Avenue. The owner was a gentleman and the store has that classic old-school vibe. More places like this should exist. read more

I think this is best pizza on the block! There's seats for singles and groups, and a mirror to record your memories in. I didn't even add any seasonings to my pizza and I enjoyed it, which usually I'm a Parmesan, garlic, and red pepper flakes kind of girl. The tomato sauce is perfect for the pizza and the pizza is always baked to perfection! Thank you guys for the pizza, keep up the great work, and happy holidays!!! read more

Good and fast service upon walking in. Grabbed a quick slice for lunch, I thought it was a decent slice. It was fresh, the crust was perfect in my opinion (nice and crunchy) but not burned. Right amount of cheese and sauce, when it came to the flavors of the sauce I felt it was missing something. Maybe a little basil or garlic in the sauce, was a little bland for my taste. Place looked clean and has a good amount of seating. read more

I love grabbing pizza here. This is my main spot for a pie because of how fresh the ingredients are and they make it just right. The people here are super friendly and attentive. I especially love their garlic knots because they're always drenched in garlic, which is the way it should be and not covered in some flakes of garlic. Their wings are great as well. They have a nice set-up in the back with some tables if you would like to dine-in. This is my preferred pizzeria in the Bensonhurst area and I would recommend it to anyone who is in the neighborhood to try it if you're craving for some superb pizza. read more

I don't know what happened. Maybe they were having a super off day but the slice I ordered was nearly inedible. It made me sad because the people are wonderful and the slices used to be amazing. This was like super hot cardboard with sauce and cheese. The Sicilian pie that had just come out for a delivery looked AMAZING though. read more

We decided to try this pizzeria. And pizza was super delicious and very friendly staff who let me pick which Sicilian slice I want. Will definitely come back read more

Great old school Brooklyn pizza shop. The Sicilian is the slice to get here. I had the regular slice which was very good but the square stood out. Cool to see a place like this keep its doors open in 2026 read more

I was thinking about their squares when I woke up, I went there and order 2 squares and a soda, the pizza was dry, burnt bottom and the sauce had no flavor, I've been going there for almost 50 years and I was so disappointed that I won't go there again. read more

Couldn't be more authentic than an Italian making the pizza, another taking orders while chitchatting. Now, there are 2 customers talking about politics ... gotta love the accent. read more

Visit Date: April 5, 2023 I came here with my dad, my cousin and one of my friends. My cousin wanted to show me a religious shop in the city so I drove to Brooklyn with my dad and my friend to meet him. We took the subway into the city saw St. Patrick's cathedral visited the religous store and took the subway back near where I parked my car and close to where my cousin lives. The four of us walked into DaVinci for some pizza. My dad treated but I wanted the best economical option for us. So my dad ended up getting a pizza pie for the 4 of us to split and he got himself a spinach pinwheel. The pizza here was good, the staff was friendly and provided good service. I'm rarely in the city or Brooklyn but if I am around DaVinci again I'll definitely get more pizza. read more

Still the best square slice in Brooklyn, and everywhere else. Fresh hot out of the oven is best. I'll take a corner slice to go.

Everything you want in a classic Bklyn pizzeria! The squares are absolutely classic and the regular slices are super nice too! DaVinci's is a neighborhood institution and amaong the best! read more

I had a really disappointing experience at Da Vinci Pizzeria. If I could give less than one star I would. We have them an extremely friendly greeting and the owner was noticeably rude and dismissive toward POC customers, while being much friendlier and attentive to white patrons. It was uncomfortable and disheartening to witness. On top of that, the food was horrible. My pizza arrived cold, and the broccoli on the vegetable pizza was soggy. The flavors were bland, and overall, it just wasn't worth the price. I don't feel comfortable supporting a business that treats its customers so differently based on race, and I won't be coming back and you should think twice before ordering from here as well! read more

Probably the best pizza I've ever had in Brooklyn, possibly everywhere!! I had the grandma slice and my fiancé had the classic slice. My slice the crust was absolutely amazing- perfectly fir read more

This is basically my food spot every year when I attend the 18th Ave Feast: the pizza is the typical old school Brooklyn pizza shop. I was able to strike up a convo with the owner as we live in the same area and he seemed pretty cool. I see a few complaints about pricing, but unfortunately, $3.25 is about the norm now for a slice, which I can remember as far back when it was only $1.50. Nonetheless, I would say this a fairly decent option for pizza, if you're in the area. read more

The perfect square pie, pair it with an ice cold Manhattan Special! There is nothing else quite like DaVinci's anywhere. I could not recommend them any higher if I tried. Sheer perfection! read more

Maybe I was really hungry that day, but my pizza slice tasted delish. Came here to grab a quick bite while running some errands and decided to dine-in, ordered a pepperoni and a sausage slice with some garlic knots; wait wasn't too long and the slices came out piping hot. Maybe I was super hungry; burnt the roof of my mouth as I took my first bite of pizza, but I didn't care. My pizza was hot and melty and I really liked it. Though the Garlic knots were not as soft and garlicky as I would've liked. The counter guy was pretty friendly; though there wasn't much of service given. Overall, a good pizzeria joint read more

I mean it's DaVinci...if you know you know. Outstanding rounds and squares....if you're from out of town and want a real taste of NY pizza....this is your spot. A real landmark for the neighborhood. read more

Came here yesterday with someone from Bensonhurst who claimed it was the best pizza in Brooklyn. He got 2 square slices and I got 2 regular slices. The slices were decent. I prefer pizza that's slightly thinner. Service was friendly. read more

Sent Davinci square pizza to my sister in Melbourne FL . She absolutely loved it. It was as good as when she had it delivered in Brooklyn. Simple online process. Order for Monday shipping only . And priced reasonably. Angelo or Antonio are very responsive to all requests. read more

This jawn has been around since I was tryna sag my pants and wore XXXL white ts. Biased opinion, but probably best pizza in Bensonhurst. The brothers? Behind the counter are goofballs. Love their relationship with each other. Their baked dough with tomato sauce and cheese is one the best in Brooklyn. Definitely give them a visit. I'm not a big pizza guy. Hope that speaks a little volume. Would come back read more

It's been over 35?yrls back in the old neighborhood. Excellent squares and slices and still has the old school vibe.

A co-worker recommended that I come out to Brooklyn to try this slice. She said that the Sicilian slice is one of the best in the city. It is a good slice, but the main aspects of this review come from the triangle slice that I try, which unfortunately at DaVinci comes up short. This pizzeria is off of 18th avenue, only a 5 minute walk from the N train. The triangle slice is not bad; it is a chewy slice, with a slightly sweet sauce. Not overly cheesy, but it can be overlooked by the nice sweet sauce that encompasses the slice. It is a little on the small side, but for the price, there is not much to complain about. As for the Sicilian slice, or square slice, it is a better slice. The friendly worker behind the counter recommended it to me and allowed me to pick my slice right out of the oven! Crispy slice, good amount of cheese to sauce, golden crust, all the things I want in a Sicilian slice. It was so good I devoured it. But on your traditional triangle slice, it works well, but it is not one of better slices in the city. It is a great slice for lunch, but has no true lasting flavor. Feels like a one night stand. It is enjoyable in the moment, but then the moment is gone, just like this slice. As I wrap up Brooklyn, and I am almost there, I found that you will never really find bad pizza here in Brooklyn. But you will come across mediocre pizza like this one, unless you prefer the squares. That is the big winner here. Triangles? Sorry, not here. read more

Just had DaVinci's pizza delivered from New York to California. It was just as delicious as it was 50 years ago, when I last had it. Keep up the good work, will definitely be ordering again. Thanks for making it so delicious. JR read more

Da Vinci has amazing pizza. There are two reasons why we don't order from here often: 1. No delivery. This limits orders to takeout or dine-in. 2. The pre-made gluten free crust they use is not good. I love that it includes a disposable pizza cutter to stay safe. This is probably the only option for a pre-made gluten free crust through their distributor. I wish it were possible to get a better choice for them. I love Da Vinci. They've been in a longtime rivalry with J&V Pizzeria regarding which is best in this end of Bensonhurst ( and thus, the world). I'd love to make a comparison video between the two after both acquire great GF crusts and Grubhub accounts. read more

Me and two friends went to get some pizza. When we walked in the owner yelled at us saying what do you want? Then we asked for straw then throw the straw at my friend. Then the owner didn't put the pizza the plates he put on the tray. The pizza was not hot at all. Then my friend went up to pay and the owner walked away. Then the owner walk pass by the table he is yelling at me and other friend the owner said what are you looking at? and the owner also said I had the right to be rude to you guys. The owner went to counter to help my friend to pay the bill. When my friend come back with the receipt the owner overcharge us. When we about to leave we said you charge for soda. He said we overcharged you because we were being rude to me. Then the owner told us about the story. We don't want to hear it we just want our money back.We were not being rude to the owner. read more

I had two squares there the other day. And it made me remember 50 years ago when I first had a square there. It was the best then it was the best now it will always be the best. Thank you. read more

This was my first Pizzeria back in 1981 when I came from Italy. I've tried others in the area but! Nothing compares to DaVinci. I will continue to eat here, and if you haven't tried it, you're missing out. I recommend Sicilian square extra crispy bottom. Yummy!!! Enjoy! La Dolce Vita. read more

Recommended by a local who grew up in the area as the best Brooklyn pizza. Parking is limited, street parking only. We were struggling to work with the parking meter, a stranger who just happened to pass by put some coins for us. Whoever you were, thank you! Once you come inside, a typical Brooklyn guy welcomes you with New York accent. I explained to him how we got here and he gave me the smile he would normally give to his regular local customers. In fact I got to chat with other customers while there and everyone was very nice. Sicilian square pizza is what recommended and that's what I had for my lunch. I don't normally like thick pizza but this one was exception. It may not be the cleanest restaurant and some chairs are in need of minor repairs but I sure enjoyed visiting this loved by locals joint. read more

My last trip to DaVinci Pizzeria was in the late 1980's. I found my self wandering thru Bensonhurst and I stopped in for a bite. The place looked nice, and the staff were all cool. I ordered two Margherita slices, and a Grape Soda. The slices were cooked just right, and the Grape Soda was delicious. My bill was $9.50. I'll be back very soon. read more

I don't know what they have done to their pizza lately, but it hasn't tasted the same during my last two visits. What a shame, because they were so good. Go back to what you were doing before please. I hope when I come back once more (maybe my last) you have fixed this, otherwise it's not worth my 2.5 hour car trip!. You can do this, DaVinci! read more

Highly disappointed. Bland pizza which had no sauce or taste to it. Service is rude and acted as if they were doing a favor to serve you.

This is by far the BEST pizzeria in Brooklyn hands down! The pizza is always consistently delicious! The workers and owner are very nice. I highly recommend the regular slice & the square it's really amazing! This is a true old school pizzeria! Great pizza no bs!!!Thank you for your service for so many years! read more

Simply the best pizza I've ever had in my life. Get a whole Sicilian pie, religious experience. Better than L&B, better than DiFaras. Totonno's in Coney, but they don't make the squares and they're only open weekends. This is the fkn place. DaVinci's Amazing read more
