Wasn't sure if a small boutique pizza spot would have vegan cheese and plant based pepperoni but lo and behold they do!! Woot! Ordered a glass of Lambrusco and Peroni on draft and enjoyed a relaxed atmosphere for a Saturday date night without needing reservations with soft warm lighting that was easy on the eyes, and cozy atmosphere with warming chili oil to drizzle over the pizza on a cold winter night. The pizza was just enough for two, with crust that was hand tossed with loose bubbles in the edges, the vegan cheese was melty and flavorful, and the plant based pepperoni had an excellent near familiar flavor (not the chorizo substitute kind). When these were paired with the artichokes and onions and a dash of rosemary on the Coppa- the result was absolutely delish *chefs kiss*. Service was always nearby and accommodating of special requests which made this an excellent option for a definite return visit! read more

I went here after the BK Museum First Saturday & it was clear that a lot of people had ventured here. They were gracious enough to keep open for a bit longer even though they genuinely didn't have to. I got the carbonara pizza without the meat & it was great. Also shout out to the bartender Fabian who was really nice & attentive despite having a lot of customers. I would venture back if I'm in the area. read more

I went with a party of 12 after my son's graduation ceremony at the Brooklyn Museum. The staff could not have been more accommodating and easy to deal with and the setting is so charming. Not to mention, the food was incredible! Everyone in my group loved Ogliastro. Looking forward to going back! read more

Over the past two years since my last review, I've been back many times to Ogliastro for more of that incredible vegan pizza. Time to report back! First of all, their happy hour M-T, has a nice array of snacks (don't sleep on their hummus with focaccia) and reasonably-priced drinks. It feels almost like aperitivo in Italy. Now that I've had the vegan pepperoni I can report that it's pretty good! It's pricey at a $7 add-on, and I'm not sure I love it enough to warrant that. I prefer the way they load on the vegetables add-ons (perfectly fresh arugula and olives are my faves... the mushrooms, while plentiful, aren't my favorite variety but that's not a complaint, just a personal preference). Veggie build-your-own pizza with vegan cheese and red sauce is my jam. Ok and that nero d'avola (avail by the glass) is really lovely. It's a special place for my friends and I can't wait for the weather to get warm again so that on my next visit to Brooklyn, we can enjoy that gorgeous outdoor garden! read more

Got takeout from Ogliastro on Valentine's Day and was pleasantly surprised! The restaurant itself was bustling--classic NYC vibes with bar seating and cozy low tops. Definitely a spot I'd love to visit in person. For takeout, we had the Barbabietole (beets)--honestly, just okay for me. Probably a better dish when plated properly, but in a takeout box, it felt a little dainty and underwhelming. Now, the pizza? Absolute winner. The Salsiccia d'Agnello was a standout--house-made lamb sausage that was super unique and full of flavor. Definitely not your typical slice! The Coppa was a solid red pizza, hitting all the right notes. And as a fun Valentine's touch, they made the pizzas heart-shaped, which was an unexpected and adorable detail. I called to order (as suggested on their website, probably to avoid third-party fees), and everything was smooth. Would definitely return--next time, dining in to get the full experience! read more

Sat in the front booth table on a Monday after a casual bike ride. We ordered the pollo salad with breadcrumbs and green goddess dressing and the carbonara pizza (white pizza with egg) - I would recommend 2 eggs for future. The pollo salad was delicious and hit the spot! Re-ordered it several times as takeout and it has been delicious but the chicken has been inconsistent. The first time dining in, the chicken was flattened and crispy. Other times it has been piping hot but not as crispy. The overall flavor is consistent though. I'm just going to have to ignore the B rating. There is plenty of seating indoors and out in the garden, which is a lovely option during warmer months. A fan! read more

Ogliastro is a really cozy restaurant! My friend and I enjoyed the ambiance a lot and it waa great place for us to sit down for a nice meal. The Rucola e Pera salad was my favorite, every bite had a nice mix of ingredients and the pizza croutons were a fun add! The Carciofi pizza and shishito peppers were also great. I don't believe I've tried fior di latte (the cheese on the pizza) before but I enjoyed it a lot! Last but not least the service was great, would definitely come back for a cozy meal! read more

Best pizza and salads in tbe area, especially if you eat in house. Cozy interior and lovely patio when the weather is nice. Just a good, solid place to enjoy dinner, even with the kids in tow. read more

Love the pizza, love the atmosphere. We ordered a three pizzas -- two red and one gluten free -- for four people, and shared two starter salads (the Mista). While I didn't taste the gluten-free, I heard it was wonderful. I can personally attest to the delicious Coppa and Polpette pies. All the food was fantastic -- as was the bottle of Sangiovese. So good that I dove in and forgot to take photos. Prices are reasonable, service is wonderful. Atmosphere is cozy and vibrant. Great place for pizza and wine! read more

First things first, the pizza's were great. Service not so good. Very slow and our waiter seemed to be in a bad mood and it showed. The last surprise was that they added a 20% tip to a party of 4 adults and one child without any notice. That was not appropriate. I would usually tip at least 20% but in this situation this policy, in my opinion, was not appropriate read more

Ogliastro is a solid restaurant that serves good pizza and more in a cozy, welcoming ambiance. What I like about Ogliastro is that they have an extensive pizza menu that, alongside classic pies like pepperoni, meatballs, arugula and prosciutto, mushrooms, etc... they also have inventive pies such as clams and shrimp, homemade lamb sausage, or pancetta and potatoes. You can also build your own pie with the ingredients listed under "The Constructivist" section of their menu, which sounds fun! And if you would like something else than pizza, their extensive menu offers a lot of side dishes such as burrata, meatballs, marinated artichoke wrapped in speck, baby broccoli with anchovy and pecorino, roasted cauliflower, roasted figs, and more. I haven't tried it (yet), but their Oli Burger with short rib and brisket blend with dry aged fat and Raclette cheese sounds amazing. Their salads are also great, such as Rucola e Pera (pear, arugula, frisée, gorgonzola, pizza croûtons), Barbabietole (charred baby beets, beet leaf pesto, whipped goat cheese, pine nuts, Campari sauce), or Ogliastro (Tuscan kale, guanciale, ricotta salata, pine nuts, tomato confit vinaigrette). One thing to keep in mind is that service is a bit slow, so if you come here with a hungry small child, you may want to have some snacks at hand. They have several cocktails ($14; $11 for HH[1]), and 12 rotating beers on tap. This is a great dinner option after visiting nearby Brooklyn Museum[2] and/or Botanic Garden[3]. I'm a fan. ------------------- [1] HH: Monday to Thursday 5- 7 at the bar only. https://www.ogliastropizza.com/happy-hour [2] https://www.yelp.com/biz/brooklyn-museum-brooklyn-2 [3] https://www.yelp.com/biz/brooklyn-botanic-garden-brooklyn-2 read more

Came in by myself after checking out the neighborhood and had such a good time. Got there in time for happy hour, so I sat at the bar and chatted with the bartender. He was so knowledgeable about the menu, the owners and the restaurant. I had such a great time learning about the place. From the HH menu, I went with this lovely women owned winery's Rosé. It was amazing! Ended up getting two of them and a glass of red from the same brand after. I wasn't super hungry so I only ordered the burrata app. Absolutely delicious!!! Could have licked the plate. Can't wait to come back! read more

Pretty good pizza. We got it to go but the ambiance looked cool inside. Might return for a happy hour.

This place was so good!! Me and my sister shared their Melanzane pizza which is a white pizza with roasted eggplant and pepper, garlic, basil, and ricotta. We also shared a shirley temple which wasn't what I was expecting but really amazing regardless. Would def go back! read more

I was anticipating coming here after the brooklyn botanical garden light show! Then before, two hours of closing they rushed us out and then I asked my food to go and this is what they gave me! This is how much they rushed us out the pizza boxes were inside out!!!! I ordered three pizzas a salad and multiple drinks. That is unacceptable. I spent well over $200 at this place. I'm embarrassed for this establishment. I won't come back ever. This is terrible! I am shocked at the non attentiveness I was treated just because you were closing "soon". Shocking! read more

Classically appointed Italian spot with great pendant lights and full bar running the length of the restaurant. We came in on a weekday evening and were seated immediately . The server knew the menu well and helped us choose pizza and drinks. The frise salad had pear and Gorgonzola chips... awesome and well balanced . But we came for the pizza and the margarita was exceptional. Thin base crust with a bit of a chew on the crust and stood to a two finger hold. Sauce and mozzarella were excellent and the fresh basil was added after the pie was pulled out of the oven. Another good touch! We had another pie that was half meatball and half not for the non meat eaters and it was delicious as well. Good beer and cider selections , as well as drink menu , tho I would have loved a Peroni. No matter.. it was a happy threesome of diners who left, and have every reason to return . Thank you! read more

Hands down the best gluten-free pizza I've ever had. And I don't even avoid gluten - it's just my better half that orders GF! Quite amazing... Everything else we've had has been great too -salads, drinks - but the pizza is terrific. read more

Stopped by this restaurant today on the way home from the Brooklyn Museum. It's tucked away, but definitely a cute spot. The patio area is very intimate, yet inviting. I ordered the carbonara pizza with sausage. It was surprisingly tasty! Staff was very friendly, which is a plus. read more

Amazing amazing pizza, great service and cozy ambiance! Great backyard as well. We had fungi pizza and put some truffle oil soooo good

Sat in the lovely back outdoor section of the restaurant. Good service, wonderful ambiance & excellent individual size pizzas. Only problem was we couldn't get the waiter to bring the check. He kept coming out to take other orders but we ended up having to just go to the cashier and ask him to find our order in the computer. Still gave the waiter a nice tip but damn...not a good look. The other waiter who found our order was a doll and very apologetic (blonde mohawk - lovely personality). Would still come back but will tell the waiter as soon as he brings the pizzas that we want the check in the future lol. read more

Ogliastro - Arugala/prosciutto/shaved parmesan and sausage/mozzarella minus the olives pizzas! - Pizza Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Alright, frankly I think I could probably write this place a 5 eventually if I continue to go back, but as of now I haven't been enough or ordered enough things to feel fully justified (I'm picky about who I give 5s to because I really want it to mean something!). With that being said, the kale salad is FREAKING delicious. And weird right? It's just a salad. I shouldn't like a salad so much. But whatever they're doing there, it works. I also got the burrata here as an app, which was wonderful (but what burrata isn't really?). I haven't had the pizza here yet, but it's definitely in order once I get back out to New York (I've been stuck in Arizona for 4 months because of the pandemic and OMGGGG I miss good pizza so bad). I definitely see more of Ogliastro in my future! read more

Nice selection of beers and wines. I had a Pilsner and then a Hefeweizen. We shared the burrata salad as an appetizer. For the main course, we shared the house burger and the middle eastern inspired pizza with lamb sausage, yogurt, and pistachios. They have two gender neutral restrooms. There is a large outdoor patio in the back and it seemed like about half the patrons had young children with them. read more

Really delicious gluten free pizza!! Everything was super tasty. Would highly recommend this place.

I loved the pizza here. Fresh, abundant toppings, generous cheese, crisp, crunchy crust. I started with the artichoke salad, which was delicious. My friend had a gluten-free pizza and she said it was awesome. Recommended place to check out! read more

Pizza is AMAZING!!! What I love most is that I do not feel bad or feel bloated after eating here!!! Great Ambiance and the staff is full of beautiful people. I usually go alone so I personally prefer to sit at the bar. The bartender is AMAZING!!!!

And they have a beautiful back yard!!! read more

Okay at best. We had the lamb pizza and clam pizza and it was okay. Very far from I think most peoples idea of a pizza. We also had the meat balls which were five meatballs or two regular size meatballs for $18. Service was good and friendly. Overpriced and over hyped but since it's a "unique" twist in pizza a lot of people think it's amazing. read more

We ordered four pizzas for take out from Ogliastro which was conveniently located on our way home from the Brooklyn Botanical Garden. We called ahead about 20 mins to place the order and pick up was easy. We ordered four pizzas for six people to share: 1] Margherita - tomato, fior di latte, basil. 2] Rucola e Prosciutto - tomato, fior di latte, arugula, prosciutto, shaved parmigiano. 3] Salsiccia - tomato, fior di latte, housemade sausage, olives. 4] Vongole e Gamberi - chorio, clams, shrimp, peppers, garlic, oregano, creme fraiche. The pizzas were good but nothing special imo. read more

I'm a pizza enthusiast and this might be the best Neapolitan pizza I've had in NYC. The wine selection is also great!

Best pizza around and great ambiance. Cool, dark vibes with nice bar seating and when it's nice out the outside back patio is relaxing and a great place to sit with larger party. Great wine options. Waitstaff is wonderful. I think it would be a good date place. read more

Top-notch al fresco in this enclaved rear deck. We chanced upon this charmer while hoofing about in Park Slope. Only pizza and salads on the menu but everything we ordered was made to perfection. As usual, we present ourselves as a five-top. Our order consisted of two white pizzas, a margerita and mine a Bufalo plus anchovies. The magic here is most certainly the rear al fresco deck. I can imagine it's quite the location at night - as during daylight the dappled sunlight through the leaves overhead is straight out of a Seurat painting. This neighborhood is fortunate to have such a watering hole. read more

Awesome pizza. Thin crispy/chewy crust. Wood fired and top quality toppings. We got artichoke something or other and maybe a prosciutto one? Doesn't matter what. They know what they're doing. Great backyard and beautiful interior. read more

This is a during-COVID pandemic review. We ate outside (because social distancing) and it was really nice because although we were outside, it was warm enough and pleasant. The food was great and admittedly did not take a photo because I was hella hungry - but fried artichoke salad will always make me happy and whole. The pizza was pretty damn good and I don't know if I was just happy to be out and about or if it was just a great experience but I'll be back to test this theory when the world normalizes. If you are in Brooklyn and looking for a cool, quiet spot to enjoy some good pizza, salad, and wine, I recommend Ogliastro. They've definitely stepped up their game. read more

The backyard garden here is lovely and spacious--tables nicely spread apart. I'll come back just for the ambience when I want a relaxed brunch. Beyond that the waitstaff was friendly, the pizza selection immense, and when I checked with the waitstaff for a dietary restriction she was knowledgeable about it but double checked with the kitchen anyway. I ordered The Norwegian (poached eggs, hollandaise, capers, sourdough bread, greens) and it was delicious if a little pricey. read more

When you find a gem in the neighborhood it's so exciting!! I've passed by this spot over 100+ times and finally went in for a friend's birthday pizza party...get it pizza party! LOL....ok weak joke. Anywho, it was a nice fall day and we were able to sit in the back patio outside. Great patio and you feel like you aren't in the city anymore. What was ordered: 2 gorganzola pizzas....MY FAVORITE!!! Spinaci E Rocotta w/ tomatoe sauce...yummy!! A pie w/ pork...idk how that was b/c no pork for me, but I think it was hit since there wasn't a piece of crust left A pear salad ...getting the green in this way was so good! A salad with bacon...again notmy thing but it disappeared in 5 seconds. The cocktails were equally yummy. Definitely will be making my way back here! read more

So disappointed in this place, gross soggy food and terrible service. Got the Beet salad, which wasn't a salad at all, just 5 cold beets on a plate with random undressed arugula on top( literally two bites). Got the Vongole pizza and pesto pizza, which came out ice cold, burnt, and soggy. The clams were uncooked mush and the shrimp was cold. Took two bites and couldn't eat any more. Told the bartender my food was cold and she just took it and said nothing. Ignored us for the rest of our time, didn't ask if we wanted more drinks or if we wanted to see the menu to get something else. Left our food sitting in front of us untouched and ignored us. Really poor, rude service and disgusting soggy, floppy cold pizza. At least if the food is going to be this bad the staff should be nicer and actually provide service. We both work at bars and we're shocked by how unhelpful and rude the bartender was. read more
