    New York Pizza.
    Tri D.

    By far one of my favorite Pizza spots in Brooklyn. This is my 3rd time here. Twice two years ago & came back once again 3 weeks ago. This is a nice local spot to have some pizza. It's located on the strip by the subway station. The staff is always friendly & they make you feel like you're at home. All the slices I've ordered were delicious and fresh. My favorite slice was the one that had pepperoni, sausage & ham on it. Great undercarriage & great thin crust. The sauce to cheese ratio was on point. None of the slices I've tried were greasy or floppy. I'm very picky when it comes to pizza & some places barely put marinara sauce onto their pizza. Who wants to eat pizza with very little sauce? Not me. I like that they allow you to bring drinks from next door. You can't go wrong with fresh squeeze juice and pizza to go with it. Overall, it was a great experience, this will be my go to spot every time I go to Brooklyn. One bite everybody knows the rules & I give it a 9.2.

    Love this place! It's been around forever and the food is always fresh and delicious. Got my favorite shrimp parmigiana (sorry no picture). It was so delicious and plentiful. The Nutella bites were sinfully delicious. The staff is always nice and accommodating. The only down side is they don't do delivery.

    My husband and I wanted to grab a slice before heading to the city. He vaguely remembered this place from years back and it did NOT disappoint. He got two slices & I tried their lasagna slice -- the dollops of ricotta drew me in. Both were excellent. The crust was perfect. The sauce to cheese ratio was great. And they really packed on the meat & cheese on my lasagna slice. The bolognese tasted like they simmered it all day. Convenient location as it's right outside a subway stop. Servers are friendly as well.

    Was highly recommended by my coworker, so I was really excited to try Lo Duca pizza. It's on top on the Newkirk Plaza subway station, which was really convenient. The pizza was delicious, cooked perfectly, and the right size. The only reason I don't give it five stars is I like my pepperoni spicer and a little more sauce on the pie. But that's a personal preference, still a delicious slice that I highly recommend!

    This place is a staple in Brooklyn. The food is amazing, I don't think I've had one bad thing from here. The service is great, quick and accurate every single time. The ambiance is very nice as well, they offer seats to dine in and clear lines for pick up or order in-store. They also have a rest room for customers.

    A neighborhood gem. Family owned and operated, this shop is consistently delicious each and every time.

    Good thin pizza, even late at night! My friend and I got here a little bit before closing time. There was a decent selection even though it was like 8:30 and they close at 9. I chose a classic pepperoni slice and my friend got the grandma slice. My friend has been here before and said they have lots of selection, fresh, midday so definitely worth coming for lunch or a midday snack. They quickly reheated our slices and boxed it, and as we paid mentioned they popped in an extra slice since the one they gave us was on the small side. So nice!!!!!!!! :) such a convenient location too right by the B/Q Newkirk train if your train is taking a while to come.

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.

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.
