    Mushroom and margarita slices
    Jaz M.

    This past summer, I found myself in the Greenpoint area, and decided to grab two slices. A mushroom, and a margarita slice..and man was it bad. Unfortunately, they didn't have much flavor-- the sauce was bland, the cheese wasn't great, and the crust bland AND hard as a rock. I added garlic to the slices, but honestly nothing could have saved these. Also, the food was overpriced. Two stars mostly because the guy behind the counter was nice to me.

    A real hidden gem for Pizza Shop lovers There's a handful of pizza places in the area but this one is my favorite hands down. Good prices, such a friendly staff, an the dough! The dough...it's so soft but perfectly crunchy. Especially if you get the Stromboli's but this also applies to the crust. They also have some sort of secret recipe for their tomato sauces because I have never tasted ones like what they have. Has a good natural deep flavor

    Pernil Thursdays!

    Old school Italian pizza, not many of these spots still around, so I'm happy to be able to get a good old fashion Brooklyn slice locally.

    I was heading to a show at the nearby Brooklyn Bazaar and was really looking forward to my usual Greenpoint stop of Triangolo's Pizza down on Manhattan Avenue but my friend didn't feel like walking and pointed out that pizza was down the block as well so there we were at Franklin Pizza. Now I've passed this place before but have never gone in despite always walking right by to go to the Brooklyn Expo Center. My visit was a quick one and I ordered a single plain slice and a can of Sprite and since we assumed the show was opening the doors at any moment, my friend and I ate quickly so we could get on the line to enter the nearby club. That was a mistake since I could have even had another 2 slices based on how long they made us wait. That being said I did enjoy the pizza and might for sure find myself down here eating again the next time I need to go to the Expo Center. I don't think I will be back to the place until next Spring but its marked off as a side step to the planned adventure. The slice was a nicely sized one and I always like that. Nice work guys.

    Dive neighborhood pizza joint. A little disheveled nut gives a bit of character. Talk to the pie maker and he can make what you want.

    Best Buffalo chicken slice I've ever had. So good!!! Also great chicken rolls. They definitley cook their chicken well. The sauce is so good too and the crust is the perfect thickness. Small spot so I've always taken out. Good service

    Franklin Pizza is a quick and easy pizza spot that, thankfully, does not tend to have a long line. I love their eggplant parmesan pizza and recommend it to everyone. Slices come out hot and fresh and staff is extremely friendly. Not much I can ask for at a pizza spot.

    Best Health's Black Cherry Soda. Yummy!

    More pricey than I thought it would be, but Franklin makes a tasty sausage slice. They have wi-fi and some not-so-clean clean tables. So I guess they want you to hang around for a bit. But not for the television. It's ten feet off the ground, so it's obvious it's for the entertainment of the guy stuck behind the counter all day. The pizza has a good crust and good quality toppings. I just wish it was served hotter. I was in no rush. I was in the middle of the 6 hour process of waiting to have my book signed at WORD just up the block. I hope someone got Allie Brosh a whole pie. She was a trooper. I was just glad Franklin Pizza was open because there isn't much else besides a few bars and a bodega within easy walking distance in the area.

    Fresh Mozzarella Pizza

    My girlfriend got a slice and we left. Four blocks later, after taking a bite of her Marguerite slice, I realized the folly of my ways and busted a quick 180 to get myself one. The fresh mozzarella makes this pizzeria the move. Trust me -- as a NY native, I'm a pizza expert.

    Yummy throw up flavored floor.
    Leo F.

    Came in for a slice, left with throw up on my shoes. It's 11pm on Friday and it's fairly slow, I walk in and waited for help for over a minute as the gentleman had a very important phone call. (Rough start but no big deal) Ordered a few slices, as I stepped away from the counter I noticed I had been standing in a very unappetizing pile of throw up. It was right in the middle of the room literally in front of the counter. (Okay that's very gross but it's Friday night, I get it) I asked for something to clean my shoes with and I was handed a single paper towel. I was trying to step on the paper towel to clean my shoes. I didn't want to wipe my shoes with my hands, I was about to eat a slice of pizza. As I'm stepping on the paper towels the other employee yells and gestures aggressively to clean up the paper towels on the floor.. HOW ABOUT YOU CLEAN THE THROW UP IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR PIZZA SHOP. At this point I completely lost all desire to eat Franklin st pizza. Horrible cleanliness and shop awareness by the workers. Horrible customer service from start to finish. A very preventable cleanliness mistake could have been amended by some common courtesy for a customer.

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.

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.

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.
