    a pizza in a box
    Morlene C.

    I was pleasantly surprised by the large margarita pie I ordered from Prospect Pizza last week. They aren't a household name or a buzzy restaurant written up by all the food blogs. They're just your local pizzeria operating mostly on delivery orders and single slice takeaways. My pie was made fresh from the time I ordered it for pickup and was ready about 30-40 minutes later. It carried well through some distance and tasted absolutely phenomenal when I got home. The sauce was tart and tomatoey, there was plenty of fresh garlic and basil in the sauce, and the cheese to sauce to bread ratio was perfect. Even more telling is that I finished every last bite of the crust-- the crispy and fresh edges of each slice were irresistible. I was tempted to chalk up the tastiness of their margarita pie to me being hungry, but eating it heated up the next day I found myself planning my next Prospect Pizza pie order, stat. Okay, random pizzeria with an okay Yelp rating, your pizza hits differently these days.

    This was a great Margherita like pizza aka Grandma Pizza Pie!

    Quarantine Review: We needed some pizza and wings and fries and dessert and Prospect was open. Delivery: It was quick and efficient. Perfect. No complaints here. 5/5 Philly Steak Pizza: I love a good cheesesteak pizza but this was just okay. The yellow triangle cheese slices were not a good look, too much peppers and not enough seasoning. It was almost what envisioned but missed the mark. 3/5 Margherita Pizza: They refer time it as "Grandma's Pizza" ... it was unexpectedly a rectangle and it was really good. Basil, mozzarella and sauce. Delicious. 5/5 Wings: These were classic buffalo wings. I asked for blue cheese dressing and for 9 wings they gave me one cup. If you really like blue cheese with your wings ask for two. Fries: Fries are admittedly tough to pull off in delivery. These were just meh. They were lukewarm and not really seasoned. 2/5 Cheesecake. Solid for what I'd expect from a pizza joint and yet for $4.50 I would have liked an option for a strawberry or pineapple topping. 4/5

    Horrible! Never do delivery this is what they well send you. If you can't get ac delivery g right why wild I out in the effort to come in and place my order when business can't be consistent across the board.

    SAUSAGE PEPPERS & ONION PIZZA PIE
    Phaedra M.

    I've ordered twice from here through the new Slice app. Very easy. Quick delivery. Grandma pizza is excellent. I was very surprised tonight though to find that the sausage onions and peppers pizza has NO tomato sauce! The pizza is good, but for me it needs to be really clear in the description that this pizza doesn't have sauce! If I ordered sausages peppers and onions on a pie anywhere else, sauce would be a given. Interesting choice PP. Thanks for the speedy service.

    Prospect Pizza definitely is hitting a sweet spot for the area. This part of Brooklyn doesn't have dollar slices, and it does have some fantastic sit-down places popping up (looking at you Zurilee, Parkside, etc.), but it most certainly lacks something in the middle (and no, don't even get me started on Gino's). Prospect Pizza is the place you want to order from, or walk over to, to grab a pie last minute just because you feel like it. The prices seem pretty even keel for the most part, and the grandma pie I ordered was pretty good. It was pretty thin for a slice of that style, which wasn't bad, but definitely thinner than most of the usual ones I've had. Seasoning was good, cheese and sauce were solid A-. Good enough that I'll definitely be coming back to try some more options. Their daily specials are a nice way to mix things up, and while I haven't tried their other Italian dishes yet, I'm willing to take a chance. They had our pizza ready in about 30 minutes for a take-out order, as promised. Nice to see a new place that isn't trying too hard, but is just doing their own thing.

    A new place that popped up in the neighborhood. I've ate here twice and each time I'm moved almost to tears at how good the pizza is. I will definitely be back.

    If they sent you burnt food they will not make it right. Avoid businesses that can't handle their own mistakes.

    Standard-Issue Nostalgia with a Side of Rushed Hospitality…read more If you enjoy paying in time rather than digital convenience, Lucali's reservation process is a masterclass in performative nostalgia. Arriving at 2 PM to stand in a line for two hours just to get on a list for a 7 PM seating doesn't make the place feel exclusive, it makes it feel like a punishment. But hey, we got a table, so the sacrifice was supposed to be worth it. It wasn't. Lucali is BYOB, which is fine in theory. My party brought two bottles of prosecco, fully prepared for a cozy, rustic evening. The server kindly offered to pop the first bottle, then brought out our glassware: heavy, standard water glasses, fresh out of the commercial dishwasher and literally piping hot. There is a special kind of absurdity in pouring crisp, ice-cold prosecco into a glass that feels like it was just pulled from the depths of hell. To top it off, nobody offered to keep our second bottle chilled. Minor detail, sure, but for a place with this level of cult status, the low-effort service immediately set the tone. To give credit where it's due, the ambiance is legitimately cool. It's dimly lit, atmospheric, and feels like step-back-in-time Brooklyn kitchen. Watching the pizza makers roll out dough using empty wine bottles before shoving them into the roaring brick oven gives off that warm, "Nonna's kitchen" charm. You want to love it. Then the food arrives, and the illusion shatters. Our server gave us the bare minimum rundown: "We have pizza, calzones, and tonight's special pasta." Zero detail, zero enthusiasm. We ordered the pizza and the calzone. The pizza was... fine. Completely fine. But calling this the best pizza in New York feels like collective mass delusion. If you've been to L'Industrie or Mama's Too, Lucali isn't even in the same stratosphere. Then came the calzone, which was allegedly stuffed with five cheeses. The server proudly named four, withholding the fifth as a "secret ingredient." A mystery cheese angle might be fun if the calzone blew your mind, but by the time I took a bite, the gimmick just felt tired. It was a perfectly average calzone wrapped in high-end gatekeeping. The grand finale, however, was the absolute kicker. Just under an hour into our meal, after overhearing the hostess realize she'd botched the table rotation, our server came over with an update: they had overbooked and needed our table. Her gracious solution? "You're welcome to pour the rest of your prosecco into your glasses and finish it outside!" The remaining, warm, prosecco that is... Let's recap the math: two hours waiting on a sidewalk at 2 PM, five hours of waiting for the reservation time, warm glasses for cold bubbles, middle-of-the-road pizza, and a boot out the door in under sixty minutes because they messed up their own seating chart. Disgraceful hospitality masked as old-school Brooklyn charm. If you love mediocre food, lukewarm prosecco in burning hot glassware, and being rushed out to the curb, Lucali is waiting for you. As for me, I won't be back.

She's sweet. She's funny. Makes me feel right at home. I asked for one slice of Knicks pizza but I wanted pepperoni on there. They said it didn't come with pepperoni, but the owner was sitting there like "you know what since you asked for it we'll do it for you." It's like I was heaven and was told Ask and you shall receive, we just want you to be happy! Now, I don't know what sort of crack cocaine they put in this Knicks pizza but it had vodka sauce and ricotta, hot honey olive oil and I think a pesto drizzle. Oh my Jesus Christ this was the best pizza I've ever had in my entire life. Savory, a lil sweet, saucy. Lisa was right, don't need ranch for this at all. Also loved the white pie. I'm so sad because I had to leave New York the next day but days later I am still thinking about this pizza. I am still thinking about sweet Lisa and just how warm and welcomed I was in the few minutes I spent in this restaurant. I'm still thinking about how delicious this slice was!!! I cannot recommend enough, 10 out of 10 you won't regret it. Tell Lisa the girl who asked for ranch and she responded "that's sacrilegious"sent you.

I went in with extremely high expectations after seeing Barstool give it a 9.3, which is an incredibly high score. In my opinion, Dave Portnoy has a particular style of pizza that he prefers, and that definitely influences his ratings. Personally, I would not rate this pizza anywhere near a 9.3, especially considering how many great pizza options there are in Brooklyn. That being said, it is still a good slice and worth trying. I just don't think it quite lives up to the hype or the exceptionally high rating it has received.

Unfortunately, our experience was extremely disappointing. We ordered a glass of wine, a beer, an arugula salad, and our main food order. Everything started out fine, and the salad came without a problem. But then we waited. And waited. About 30 minutes after we had ordered, I asked our waiter where our food was. He apologized and admitted that he had forgotten to put the order in. By that point, we had already watched other tables receive their food, including people who had arrived well after us. We continued waiting, and after roughly 40 minutes or more, our food still had not arrived. At that point, the dining experience was already ruined and we decided to leave. Ironically, just as we were getting ready to go, the food finally started coming out. I told them we no longer wanted it. The waiter did apologize again and offered us a pizza to take with us, which I assume was complimentary, but by then we were simply ready to leave. Even paying the bill became unnecessarily drawn out. We were charged the full amount for the salad, beer, and wine. I sat with a $50 bill ready to pay, was handed the check, and then ended up standing around for another five minutes waiting for someone to actually take the money. There was no apology from the person handling the payment. I understand that mistakes happen, and I appreciated that our waiter admitted he had forgotten to place the order. But when a restaurant makes that kind of mistake, the recovery matters. After waiting that long, watching later-arriving customers get served, and then having difficulty simply paying and leaving, an apology and a pizza at the very end didn't really fix the experience. Unfortunately, based on this visit, I can't say the service lived up to the restaurant's reputation.
