Sometimes I struggle to find a really great pizza place in my neighborhood. I passed by N&D so many times on my walking adventures, but being that I'm watching my sodium I very rarely stop in. Well today I decided to get a few pizzas to take home. I chose the two plain and two grandma. The plain slices were very good. The crust was nice and thin with great texture and flavor just the way I like it and the cheese also had a good texture and pull. The sauce was great, not too sweet and not acidic. ...just like how tomato should taste. I overheard this guy order a chicken parm hero and now that's on my radar for my next time. I saved the two grandma slices for tomorrow and if I remember, I will take a picture before I devour them. read more

Appreciated the service here! Felt warm and like a true mom&pop. My pizza was warm, yummy and had a great cheese pull and the Parmesan was the perfect texture. The ambiance is extremely casual so I would say this is a hidden gem you go to for the pizza itself. Just a short walk from Nostrand Ave. Reading my Snapple caps with friends on Mother's Day made for a very fun memorable Sunday :) read more

N & D Pizza - Yum! - Pizza Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This spot used to be one of my family's go-to pizzerias since we lived in the neighborhood. After not going for a while, I decided to pay a visit recently when I was craving a slice. Sadly, it's not as good as I remember. I ordered a veggie slice, which the staff added the toppings on the spot for me (spinach, broccoli, mushrooms) and my friend got a cheese slice. The slices could've been more toasted and tasted better after I added hot honey from home. We also ordered their garlic knots, which were quite soft and resembled dinner rolls rather than knots. It seemed like they just bake it all closely in a sheet pan and separate them afterwards. Overall, their pizza is just mediocre and lack the crisp. However, due to its longevity here, it's earned a lot of neighborhood veterans. read more

Oh boy, I wasn't expecting much, but the pizza here was pretty bad. Sad to say that Cali's NY style pizza tastes much better. I'm giving it two stars for good service. I did take out, but the dude still heated up my pizza. read more

My go to pizza spot in the neighborhood. Cheese is always good but my favorite is the fresh mozzarella and tomato. It's really flavorful, lots of garlic. Their white slice is good too. We got a pie of the white and added sausage - it was a little dry but ended up adding chili oil and it fixed it. Shop itself has a few tables. Everyone I've encountered here is friendly. And in the summer I get the Italian ice. read more

Food is always so delicious, the staff is always on point. Service is great, love this place

Best Margarita pizza in NY! Super flavorful! Make sure you order the thin crust one !

Used to order from Trio, until I discovered how much better the pizza is here! I always order over the phone for pick up, because I can request that they make the crust thinner and crispier. In the times that I've randomly stopped by for a slice or a pie without ordering ahead, the difference is slightly noticeable. Their crust is delicious enough to begin with, but when it's thinner, the cheese to sauce to crust ratio is superbb A medium pepperoni or sausage pizza is about $20, in 6 slices, and normally, I'm crazy about pepperoni, but here, I'm crazy about their sausage. They're much more generous with the sausage as they cut it up in these thick and fat slices and just spread allll around. With pepperoni, I'm often confused because occasionally I get half pepperonis on my pies. Weirddd Their cheese is a thicker layer too (yay!) and I'd say overall, the pie is saltier (and the grease pools are deeper) than the other ones on the block, but I'm not complaining, because if your pizza isn't greasy, it's not good. 10 Piece Chicken Wings ($13ish): these are a little on the small side but I like how crispy they are! Just wish they were a tad bigger Used to order the veal cutlet sandwich with cheese and peppers as well and it's really good. Big piece of meat that's coated nicely and the sandwich itself isn't too soggy even after taking it home read more

Hands down best pizza in Brooklyn. I lived here for 40 years and ate at 100 different pizzerias and this is it man. Great customer service too. I like to eat at the shop to watch the owner make the pizzas fresh. Tell your friends about them. Throw a pizza party, great prices! read more

Pizza is okay at best. Kind of sad considering I had heard good things about this place. The cheese they use is very commercial and almost plasticky. Sauce is okay but nothing to write home about, Sercice was quick and prompt. They take credit cards on purchases over $10 and they also do the sausage rolls and specialty slices. At $3.25 for a slice of regular I can't say that I'd be back for another. read more

The best pizza in the area! Everything is delicious, great service, bathroom and the food is so delicious! Plenty of tables and TV too!

Good, not great pizza. As an out-of-towner, I found the menu confusing to decipher. The people behind the counter are nice, and they are definitely working hard back there. Just not sure this is the legendary New York pizza experience I keep hearing about, but have never fully realized. read more

Piece of advice.... Watch what's being placed in your box/bag carefully! Today I Placed an order and was very specific as to which slices I wanted. Stepped out for 5 minutes. Returned to receive my already boxed order but when I arrived home the slice I specifically said I didn't want was intentionally placed in the box. What a very evil spiteful old man. He's working in the wrong industry. It was not the owner who is usually kind. read more

Classic NY style pizza deep in the heart of Brooklyn. No pineapple or designer sushi toppings here. This place delivers classic pizza done extremely well. The crust, and it's all about the crust, is thin and crisp on the bottom, but not too crisp, not to bready, not too doughy. Singed just right on the bottom. The top of the crust has just enough of a doughy texture to be able to fold the wedge to eat without it cracking or tearing the crust. You had to pull just the right amount with your teeth to tear your bite of pizza off the slice. The crust to tomato sauce to cheese ratio was spot on and the cheese and sauce came off appropriately with the crust bite. The sauce want to thin and cheese want too gooey. Salt pepper oregano and chili flakes were all set out on each table, as it should be. Great job guys keeping real NY pizza alive! read more

Good place, good atmosphere, good pizza. It's not the best in the neighborhood, but they do have a very original sauce that keeps me coming back. The local cops seem to LOVE this place. And once in a while when you pass by, it smells like there was a pizza explosion, and you feel like melting into a puddle of yum on the sidewalk in front. Good times. read more

N & D is about 20 feet from a competitor pizzeria. That is not common but often when that happens, there are benefits for diners. I noticed that they take credit cards. Many neighborhood pizzerias do not. They have a nice TV. Many other pizza places do not. They have the name of their restaurant and address on their customized pizza (take out) box. That is quite rare for NYC pizza places to not use a generic box. Also the man behind the counter was very nice to me. Sometimes that is not true in similar places. I also noticed that they open at 10 AM. Most others open at 11 AM. It is necessary to be extra competitive, to stay in business. I have noticed them and their nearby competitor for many years. They are doing what is necessary to keep diners happy. I had higher than usual expectations for their food and they were met. The pizza was four and half stars. It had a very good blend of cheese, oil and tomato sauce. The crust could have been a little bit more tasty but it was close to perfect. The price was only $15.00. But that is expected with intense competition. Had a good pizza and will be sure to return. read more

Another reason to come to Ave. U for authentic Italian food delicacies. The newish owners at N & D are from Albania and this pizza is the real Brooklyn pizza deal. Owner honed his pizza craft at a pizzeria in Sheepsead Bay as I asked. I guess it was recently renovated judging from the past reviews. Family run and right off the bat the pizza was openly displayed and I thought this pizza looks good. Damn straight. Ordered my Brooklyn flavor to go: The fresh mozzarella square. Calzone. The flavor on the square- crispy, well-cooked crust, tangy sauce, cheese sauce ratio, on point. Bingo, this pizza rocks. Calzone- fresh tasting dough, almost tasting like a fresh baked bagel. Fresh tasting ricotta and mozzarella. This calzone was bangin. read more

This was our Go To Pizza Spot for YEARS. We ordered weekly. Friendly staff, perfect pizza. Nice crust, good sauce, good cheese ratio. Loved their rolls. Unfortunately, some family members got what seemed like food poisoning a couple of random times. We liked this place so much, we kept hoping it was a fluke and continued to play Russian Roulette, hoping we were wrong about where the sickness came from. Then, the last time we ordered, maybe six months ago, my son got violently ill. He was sick for 3 days to the point I was about to take him to the hospital. He had only eaten from here so we definitely knew this time. Scared us so badly, we've never ordered from here again. I don't know what has changed about this spot, but it is a real shame and I haven't found a pie I line as much since. I take negative reviews very seriously as it can make or break small businesses, but the level of illness and the amount of times we got sick, made me feel like I should make it known. So sad and unfortunate. read more

Great, solid pizza slice with a good balance of tangy sauce and cheese. The square is soft and chewy and the edge pieces have good caramelization. We have dined in and ordered delivery and both are great experiences. But let me tell you about the eggplant parmesan plate, it's absolutely the best! The eggplant is sliced paper thin and fried to a tender finish. They layer the eggplant with sauce to what seems like a hundred layers. They top it with sauce and cheese and bake it to bubbly perfection. You get a choice of a side of pasta or salad and bread. I suggest getting the side of salad because it seems like you get a bigger portion of the eggplant which is easily shareable for two. I don't look forward to eggplant Parmesan from any other pizzeria. They're chicken Parmesan is pretty good but the chicken can be tough sometimes. We often get the beef pattie with cheese and it's baked up really tasty. N & D has great customer service and will not hesitate to customize an order. read more

Just randomly stopped by this pizza joint. Great pizza, made it fresh and quality ingredients. A slice of cheese will bring you back to what a real NYC pizza is, nothing fancy, you can smell the goodness, one bite you can taste the real deal. This place also has some new twists and varieties. Order couple slices is the best way to sample them. Highly recommended. Keep up the good work! Love to see you around. Definitely come back for more. read more

N & D Pizza - Some interesting flavors - Pizza Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

go to pizza spot both Ave U and W9th. solid NYC pizza. they have the perfect amount of cheese and sauce in my opinion, and thats big for me since im actually not a saucy person. my go to order is their sausage pie. honestly delicious. my only critique about it is that it needs to be cooked more. i like when my pizza has a crisp bottom, so whenever i do order it, i always ask for it well done. read more

I love their chicken parm hero! And their good yummy selection of pizzas. Tried their meatball spaghetti that night, it was good as well. never knew that their hot dishes are just as good as their pizzas. I would def come back for more entrees off the menu. :0 read more

Pizza was no big deal. Kind of disappointing- paid $6.53 for two stale slices. Dont mind paying if it's worth it, but in this case it was definitely not. read more

The past winter storm plus this winter storm, they were opened for business. Which is great after a day of shoveling, howling winds and chilly weather for some hot pizza. This pizzeria is a little more expensive than the one I'm used to going to but for my boyfriend and I, we think this taste wise is better. The crust is crunchy and the amount of cheese on the hot pie was delicious. read more

It's a nice place, clean, respectable, etc. The thin crust "grandma" square pizza is excellent and rare. They truly don't make pizza like this everywhere. The regular pizza is heavy on cheese and taste. They have a TV on, with a nice atmosphere. They usually always have an English speaking employee at the counter (luckily). It's one of the last of the 1970s style nice pizza places in Brooklyn. read more

Great place to get hero's. It is very good and worth the price. The pizza aren't that bad but, sometimes it looks like it's been there for a while. Overall this is the go to place around the neighborhood. read more

Visiting a relative in the area and they recommended this place, so I gave it a try...and that one time is all I needed. The pizza was dry and pretty bland to me. Barely any sauce, low quality cheese and even less flavor...YUCK. The service was non-existent..The guy who helped me didn't seem like he wanted to be there either....I ordered my pizza, and he didn't even bother asking if I wanted anything else...Very unwelcoming. THEY ALSO CHARGE A 28% SALES TAX...SERIOUSLY lol. I'd rather save my money for more edible pizza and better service. I've lived in the Howard Beach area for years, I have no idea why I even stray from New Park. If you want some of the best pizza in NYC that won't gauge you in a ridiculous made up tax surcharge, go to Howard Beach...Otherwise if you prefer garbage service, even worse food, and being robber, then definitely come here read more

Disappointed in what the food has become. The pizza/sauce barely has any flavor to it and is paper thin. The penne used to be a favorite of ours, but there is no flavor to that either. Hoping one day it might become what it once was. read more

My favorite pizza parlor ever!!!! They have "hands down" the best Grandma pizza ever!!!! I live in NEW JERSEY and this is the only place I go to when wanting pizza. Thanks guys!!!! read more

Before jumping on the Pizza Craze Bandwagon, "good" pizza was found at N & D Pizzeria. Forget the sit down type restaurant with waiter service, Pizza at N & D is ordered and served at the counter. Whether you choose to consumer the pizza at the counter, on a table, or standing outside is entirely up to the your preferences. I'll forgo the usual comments on decor and ambiance. The pizzeria has simple formica tables, chairs from the early 1970's, and an old school Coca Cola refrigerator. The establishment has six tables for parties of four. Each table is set up with a napkin holder, pepper, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes. The Food... Regular Slice: Expect zero decadency. The slice does exactly what it's supposed to. Basic pizza dough crust is topped with a hearty tomato sauce and finished off with the usual processed mozzarella cheese. Consumers might find this slice to be rather chewy (in almost a rubbery texture). But the flavors of the tomato sauce help dull out the textural contrast generated from the cheese. As with processed cheese, expect a lot of saturated fat derived from the excess oil. Drain before consuming. Fresh Mozzarella with Sliced Tomato: Suggestion to N & D, omit the sliced tomatoes! This unnecessary addition takes away from the subtlety of the Fresh Mozzarella. In addition, use less Fresh Mozzarella with thicker cuts. The excess amounts of Fresh Mozzarella becomes the main property of the pizza, thus taking away from the sauce and dough crust. Nevertheless, the Fresh Mozzarella provided a sweet contrast to the tart flavor of the tomato sauce. Eggplant Ricotta Slice: This IS the slice everyone comes to N & D for! The application starts with a layer of dough that's topped with a heavy coating of Tomato Sauce, Processed Mozzarella Cheese, Slices of Fried Eggplant, and Scoops of Process Ricotta Cheese. The dough used for this application is that of medium-thin, which is used to harness the abundance of ingredients in the application. The taste of the slice is simply remarkable! The creaminess of the ricotta works in harmony with the lightly fried eggplant. These ingredients work well in combination of the hearty tomato sauce. In a manner of comparison, the application is similar to that of an Eggplant Caponata. Each of the ingredients are portioned correctly to create a savory balance of flavors in the application. Needless to say... The $2.25 slice does exist. Granted, it's all the way in South Brooklyn. Nevertheless, great pizza sometimes requires little notoriety... except for those most frequent customers. read more

Yummy! Finally, a pizza place I want to keep coming back to! Their sauce is absolutely delicious. I have never had anything like it anywhere else. The crust is thin, crispy and never ever gets soggy. They charge $1 for toppings, which I initially thought was a little bit unreasonable but came to terms with once I saw that they REALLY pile it on. Best pizza place I have tried in my neighborhood so far. read more

This is my go to spot for garlic knot and pizza. So fresh every time. They never disappoint and always delivery was very fast. Highly recommend read more

Let's get one thing straight - my brain is made of pizza. Okay? I'm always in the mood to eat it and am not ashamed to admit that I once ate a whole pie by myself. And my hips are proof of that. My tight jeans are proof of that. The drool coming out of my mouth when I think of pizza is proof of that. I decided to try N&D last night, and almost gagged when I took my first bite. First of all - I ordered a LARGE pie. I received a medium pie and paid $14 for it. Apparently, their large is a normal medium. I tried to let it go and opened the box revealing a pile of greasy, orange, goo inside. Positive thoughts, Anna. Maybe it's yummy! I picked up a slice and a trail of grease dropped on my floor. Using two bounty paper towels, I managed to blot the pizza just enough to soak up 25% of the grease. And trust me - I can handle grease - when there isn't a bucket of it on top. I took a bite, and forced myself to swallow. It was incredibly salty, rubbery and had no flavor at all. The tomato sauce was awfully bland. What's their secret? Pureed cardboard? If you don't know any better - go here. read more

I don't know what N&D stands for, but growing up nearby it was always a Neighborhood Delight. I love this place. I don't even know where to start. They might have the best chicken rolls. I ate one at least once a week growing up. Get a side of marinara with it. I love their square slices, especially their specialty ones. Those bread crumb slices are fantastic. The grandma slice, chicken parm slice, eggplant slice are all great. The regular slices are pretty good too. The garlic knots are a bit greasy, but very solid. Keep that side of marinara from the chicken roll. It's a basic neighborhood spot. Don't expect something with amazing decor. The pizza they've been doing here since I was a kid, can go toe to toe with any other generic neighborhood pizza shop. If you find yourself going down Avenue U in Sheepshead Bay, stop on in and try some old school Brooklyn pizza. read more

My rating is based not on the pizza, for I'm a very impossible pizza eater, but for their shrimp parm hero. Wowwwwww! You better split this bad boy - that's all I'm saying! When there's a shrimp piece in every bite, that's what I call awesome! Their fried calamari was totally wonderful too!! Portion was well worth it especially for take-out. read more

I walked in tonight (8/4) and placed an order here for a large half cheese/half pepperoni and a large pineapple and meat (NOT CRUSHED UP MEATBALLS). I watched carefully as he was making the pizza and noticed he didn't start yet, and I wanted to change it, but the man making it said he already made it and put it in the oven. I thought maybe my eyes deceived me, so I just left it as is. After the pizzas were pulled from the oven, I realized he had lied and he didn't put the pizza in before I requested the order change like he said he did. The price was also crazy expensive in comparison to other places out here especially because the dude cut up meatballs, which I specifically requested him not to, and paired it with old disgusting pineapple. Don't eat here. The girl that stands around back there has a snarky attitude and the person making the pizza is the absolute worst. Unimpressed. read more

I've been a long time customer. They recently closed for renovations so I have not ordered there for a few months. I ordered their old fashion Sicilian. The price went up 26%. That's bad but what makes it intolerable is the quality of the pizza. The sauce tasted like it was fresh out of the the can. The dough was okay but a bit dry. I'd like to get my money's worth. In this case I would have been better off with a frozen pizza. They're much better. read more

I will never get sick of eating the pizza and the rest of their delicious Italian food from here! I order from this pizzeria at least once a week since I live close by. Trying my best not to gain weight from eating here lol =P If you want to get the taste of the original pizza flavor here in Brooklyn, then this place is the place to go! After eating pizza from here, no other pizzeria can satisfy my pizza-craving taste buds! =P I mean I don't know how else to put it because this place is awesome! Especially the staff! They're so friendly and cool! They opened another pizzeria on the west side as well; also called N&D Pizza. It's located on Avenue U and I believe near West 8th or West 9th Street. Go check this place out guys! Enjoy!!! =D read more

The pizza on display seem a bit cold before I place my order. I ordered the mushroom and sausage slice. After ordering the pizza, that's when they actually take an original slice and put the toppings on it before reheating it. This was a bit weird since normally they don't do that. However, they do you give a lot of mushrooms. The pizza taste mediocre and can definitely be better. The beef patty with cheese was a bit over heated and was a bit burnt on the side. read more
