Me and my girlfriend went here to celebrate us being together for 6 months and this is obviously a milestone so we decided to pick somewhere nice. Brick stands out because it's in downtown bethlehem which draws a big crowd. There are inside and outside seating options at this restaurant and we chose to sit outside because it's nice. At the beginning the service was very nice letting us pick our table and being respectful. the water came quickly and honestly so did the appetizer. we ordered garlic parm french fries and they weren't too bad. i ordered the lobster mac and cheese and my girlfriend ordered the vodka rice balls. these came out pretty quickly and so did refills on our waters. the food was overall pretty good as we both finished our plate. the prices i feel were very reasonable due to the quality of the food and the overall reputation of the restaurant itself. The only downside was that there was something weird in my girlfriend's water and it took awhile to get the check but i understand it was kind of busy tonight. I can tell that people who work here care about their jobs and making other people feel welcome. To end my review I want to say this is a very nice restaurant and I would recommend you others. Thank you read more

Easily the best pizza I have ever had. The Drunken Pizza, OMG! The vodka sauce is amazing. Meatlover pizza was great too, five star! Ordered online and my order was done in 10 minutes. Great spot in Lehigh area! read more

They welcome both walk-ins and reservations. The service is exceptionally friendly and welcoming. Their penne alla vodka is hands down the best in Bethlehem--absolutely unreal and a must-order. The salads are solid, and the pizza is delicious. A great spot for dinner with friends! read more

I ended up here based upon a word of mouth recommendation. I've walked past this place before and always thought that it smelled amazing. I should have trusted my nose sooner. This place did not disappoint. I went here with my wife on a date. I ordered fried burrata in vodka sauce, prosciutto panini, and a cannoli. She got flatbread pizza, shrimp linguine, and chocolate cake. Fries burrata was great. It was basically a smushed mozzarella stick in vodka sauce. The vodka sauce is so good, I could drink it! I wish it was jarred and available for purchase. I would buy it weekly. I even dipped my panini in it. My wife dipped her flatbread pizza in it, too! Her pizza was great by itself. Fresh mozzarella and fresh basil really complemented the good pizza sauce. it was perfect! I will be returning here! read more

Food was AWFUL. This food is NOT fresh. Chicken was rubbery. My steak sandwich was COLD. Bill for 5 was $250 and we left hungry....NO WAY! read more

I love so many things to include the pizza (crust is perfection), penne vodka, eggplant rollatini, sautéed veggies, and recently I tasted the chicken saltimbocca which was delish! Family owned and so nice and welcoming....all the staff! Nice casual ambiance. read more

What a great hidden gem in Bethlehem! Wanted to try a new place and this showed up so we decided to go. The pizza menu alone has so many choices outside of the normal choices . My son got the Big Mac, I got the clam pie, my wife got the plain (a must try when going to a new place) . The pizzas come in 3 sizes, personal being a 12". My daughter was the only one to go rogue and not get pizza, she did got the penne vodka with grilled chicken. EVERYTHING was outstanding. Brick oven pizzas were perfect, Service was great. There is a really nice bar along with a few TVs to watch the games. Sorry for the bad pictures. We will definitely be back! read more

Came here for my boyfriend's birthday. He ordered a beer and midway through dinner noticed it had expired three months ago... We told the waitress so an expired beer wouldn't be served to anyone else, but the beer was neither replaced nor comped. Disappointing, especially for a birthday dinner read more

Ordered delivery but also called to confirm the food was 100 percent vegan. They were helpful and confirmed it was 100% vegan. Pizza and Stromboli were delicious! We will order again :) read more

Atmosphere was underwhelming. Server was definitely new, but did a great job checking up on us. Pizza was a bit airy and doughy for me, but overall not bad pizza. read more

We always eat at the same when we visit Bethlehem so we decided to try this place for A change. It is so loud in here you can't really talk and the tables are packed in. We got lucky and found a seat at the bar, Not too much on the beer choices but decent, we ordered a pizza with olives and a salad. The salad was great nice and fresh with a tasty dressing. The pizza was highly salty and not well done but it was edible. The service was ok it was very busy but we were served pretty quick. read more

Genuinely the best Italian restaurant I've ever been to. Starting with the owners they are amazing and always kind which reflects on the workers and other staff there. The food is incredible, I've been going here for about 10 years now and have never had a bad meal. You need to try the drunken chicken parm it will change your life. Overall it has a nice cozy feel inside and sitting outside during the summer is always amazing to end off a great evening! read more

Gluten free pizza is probably the best I've ever had. Crust isn't a premade frozen patty. It is a dough that is shaped and cooked at brick. Sicilian gluten free crust also amazing. read more

First time here, absolutely amazing! The Bee's Knees and the Hot Honey Strawberry Smash was delicious. Mia was the sweetest! read more

I went to the brick for the first time the other day with my boyfriend. I want to try it out because it's only a two minute walk from my apartment. I moved here about a month ago so I'm still trying to figure out the best restaurants around town and honestly I wasn't that impressed with The Brick. After reading some of the reviews on yelp I thought I would give it a shot but I was very disappointed. My boyfriend I decided to split the chicken parmesan and a margarita pizza the 12 inch size. I really also wanted to get the penne alla vodka but I was wary of the penne vodka disappointing me. This is because penne vodka is one of my favorite dishes of all time and I crave it pretty frequently. I really wanted it and my boyfriend didn't want it as much so we asked our server if we could have it as a side because we didn't want the full portion. She said that was fine and she placed our order. I did think that this was a very accommodating request and I do appreciate the resturant allowing this! The chicken Parmesan came with a side salad. The salad was pretty good nothing too special but it was good. What I didn't like was that our pizza and pasta came out at the same time. We probably should've specified that we wanted them at different times but it's fine. The pizza was OK at most. What I really enjoyed about it was the mozzarella cheese and the crust. The mozzarella was fresh and delicious as well as the crust, nice and crispy. As far as the sauce, it was oddly sweet and had a strange flavor. It was almost as if the sauce tasted similar to candy. I know my mom puts sugar in her tomato sauce and maybe that's what they do at the brick. But on this specific day I went to that there there was way too much sugar in the sauce! The chicken parm was my favorite thing that we ordered. I thought it tasted great, the chicken was thin (how I like it) and the sauce on the chicken tasted normal (unlike the pizza). My boyfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed the chicken parm and we both agreed that we would definitely be back to have it again. As far as the penne vodka. I will never order this dish again at the brick. It tasted nothing like penne vodka and had 0 flavor. The closest thing I could compare it to would be penne with butter sauce. Do yourself a favor and not order the penne vodka. Overall, my experience at The Brick was quite pleasant. The atmosphere in the restaurant is lovely. Our waitress was very friendly and accommodating. And they have a fun bar with drinks and lots of app's that I'm sure are great. The chicken parm was very tasty and the crust on the margarita pizza was super crunchy and delicious. read more

We have been coming the The Brick since before 2020. We love their pizza and have always had delicious food off of their menu. The atmosphere can be loud, but it's fun to be in a place with lots of people. The service last night was pretty good. We had to ask for bread for the table from the manager. The waiter didn't offer it. The butter packets had been melted and refrigerated. The bread was warm. I had a nice side salad to start with the house dressing and it was nicely presented with onion slices and grated carrots on top. For dinner, I had the Chicken Florentine. It was supposed to be pan seared chicken with tomatoes and spinach, melted mozzarella in a marinara sauce. I envisioned tomatoes - so you could tell they were tomatoes, maybe diced or sliced or maybe sun dried. There were not any whole or parts of tomaotes. The spinach was probably frozen, and very overcooked, and was hidden under one piece of chicken, maybe 1/2 cup. The chicken breasts were good size, breaded I think, and moist, but smothered in cheese and not very flavorful. The marinara sauce was not good. It didn't have any flavor, no garlic, no herbs, very little salt. My husband had the Panini Parmigiana sandwich. The sauce on it was much richer and had a lot more flavor than what I had. The bread was dry grilled, which was nice because it wasn't oily. The chicken was sliced very thin and there wasn't a lot of mozzarella and so it was a little bit dry. I wasn't offered a second glass or wine, which I would have had, but nobody came over after we were served until the end of the meal. We brought the Chicken Florentine home rather than have it thrown away. I will doctor it up to make it edible. When the waiter came to check on us, and I hadn't eaten much, I told him it wasn't good. He said he would be sure to tell the kitchen. Nobody came to ask about it, and THAT was disappointing. read more

Just had my first pizza at the Brick. My wife and I were both very impressed. The arugula salad was simple, but delicious. The Romano pizza is one of the best pizzas I've had anywhere. Light, thin, crispy, and great taste. You can tell they use the highest quality ingredients when making the pizza. Service was fantastic as well. Will definitely be back soon and often. Great place! read more

I come to Allentown from time to time and decided to stop in for the first time since the restaurant I go to is closed on Sundays. I'm glad I did. I've eaten a lot of chicken francese in my life and I'd say this one is just as good as any that I've had anywhere in the world. My martini was large and cold. My house salad was cold. My chicken was hot. Enjoyed my meal at The Brick. See you again next time. read more

Wonderful, wonderful pizza restaurant. It is not your average pizza joint though. They have tables, waiters and a full bar. There are also other meals on the menu other than pizza...but let me tell you, their pizza is great. I went there this past weekend with a bunch of friends and we ordered 4 pies. My favorite was the Grandma pie...but we asked for it with Vodka sauce which was excellent! Our waiter was attentive and the food came our faster than expected. We will definitely be back again! read more

This was our first time here. We had never been here before thought we would give this place a try. This is a semi build your own pizza restaurant! So many options to choose from. They have a bunch of preconstructed pizzas on the menu, but they can and will make a pizza with whatever toppings you choose. They also have the normal variety of pizza place options, Stromboli, Panini, Pasta, Cheesesteaks, Sandwiches and Burgers. They also have a full bar. I experienced great service and all the employees were friendly. No issues that other reviewers mentioned but then it was a Wednesday night after 8 and there were maybe 2 other parties in the restaurant. They have indoor and outdoor seating, but the outdoor was closed due to the season. Thee only complaints are the decor is a little bland and dull. Also the service was on the slower than normal side, but not awful. You also have to deal with Bethlehem street parking, but this place is a little bit away from the busiest part of downtown so it was not too bad. They also seem to do more take out business that dine in. While we were eating there we saw plethora of people come in for pick up. Overall we will be back, the pizza and food was good, however we think we will do carryout next time. read more

I took a group of about 20 people here in July and we had a great experience. The pizza was terrific, the salads were terrific and the service was terrific. I really have a hard time with pizza snobs, the people who think there is only one place that does it right and every other pizza place in the world gets one star. Get a life. Anyway, this is not a dive, it's a nice restaurant. They didn't blink when I walked in with 20 people, they made it look easy. And the food was just great. Thank you very much, Brick people, you gave us a great night. read more

We had our meal delivered through Grubhub and ordered an eggplant parm sandwich, veggie calzone, and the vodka pasta with broccoli. Food was great. A clear winner. The portion size is pretty large and enough for two meals especially if you order fries and a salad. The veggie calzone was a little light on veggies and mostly cheese but good overall. We had the tiramisu for dessert. You can get better tiramisu anywhere but it was good enough for the convenience of getting it with your meal if you don't have anything at home. Tiramisu was also a smaller portion size relative to rest of the meal. Overall, great meal but maybe skip dessert. read more

Rice balls with vodka sauce were very good, but we thought the rice balls came with vodka sauce. We asked to have the rice balls with vodka sauce when then Came out without sauce, waitress brought out a medicine sized cup of vodka sauce and we were charged $3 very disappointing. All said and done they are extremely sparing on any sauce and are quick to charge for more. read more

We usually get take-out pizza there about once a week. It is always great and we enjoy the crust, cheese and the sauce. Good thinner crust pizza. Last night we decided to try an entree and ordered the lasagna (comes with a side salad). Lasagna was excellent - large portion so there were leftovers for lunch today. House salad dressing was really good, balsamic, nice and tangy. Highly recommend! The take-out staff is very nice too! read more

We probably need to never do this again. We ordered Chicken Parmigiana sandwiches and they were deep fried. Bad taste the dwelling was so dark my son accidentally bumped into a waitress while waking in the place. I was going to order the pizza but I didn't so there's that fact. read more

My wife and I got take out and ordered a family calzone to split. The size was plenty for the two of us with a little extra. We got the Italian calzone which my wife picked out. It had too many vegetables for her liking (and she's the one that read the description!) It had a sloid crunch and came with plenty of sauce to dip in. read more

The Brick is one of the restaurants, my friends and I often frequent. The interior of the building provides a warm and inviting atmosphere, although the outside is lackluster. When considering every aspect of the restaurant, their food is the clear strong suit. With amazing pizza and pasta dishes, you can't go wrong. However, if you leave without trying the garlic parm fries then you are doing it wrong. The one aspect in which this restaurant has been lacking is service and customer experience. Often, I find that their staff is not timely in checking in on tables, and waiting for their food is uncomfortably long. That coupled with their unheated outdoor seating during COVID, provided an unfortunate experience last time we dined here for a friend's birthday. With a party of eight people, they were unable to serve all of our dishes at the same time, and while waiting for all of our food to arrive (over twenty minutes), the first dishes grew cold in the outdoor weather. This in some ways ruined our celebration and what should have been a delicious meal. In short, go here to grab your Friday night pizza takeout or to enjoy a pasta night for two. But, I would not recommend it for larger families or friend groups. read more

I have never seen such a multitude of pizza toppings in my life. Nutella on pizza?!? It's outrageous! The restaurant provides outdoor seating with plenty of shade as well as indoor seating next to giant brick ovens and flat panel televisions. The wait staff was attentive but not overly officious. The pizza was excellent. A 12 inch is more than enough for one person, and the price is a reasonable $10-$15 (this isn't Dijiorno, folks). The beer selection is also worth mentioning. read more

In the heart of downtown Bethlehem's northside, you'll find an amazing list of pizza options, plus a nice selection of other Italian dishes and a full bar including domestics, imports and craft beers. Service was excellent for our large group. Staff was super friendly and our food was served promptly and hot. Price was a touch on the high side, but not outrageous. I'll dine here again. read more

I considered 4 stars because it is very loud for an upscale restaurant and only one ladies room- BUT the food was so good that I had to give 5 stars. We made reservations and they treated us so kindly. The waitress was super attentive and checked back with us before bringing our food. Arugula salad- awesome; I'd order it just for the lemon dressing. My only suggestion would be to fry the pancetta and put on top. Toasted vegetable sandwich- Awesome, not too many vegetables instead the perfect mix anchored with roasted red pepper and mozzarella. The sweet potato fries were awesome- I kind of wish they had a dipping sauce instead of ketchup nevertheless they were great. Spinelli pizza- Perfect! Not overloaded with toppings, so you could still fold it. The sausage, and mixture of sweet and hot peppers was delicate enough to enjoy the sauce and cheese flavors. So good; get a large- for work I freeze leftover (individually) slices, and put in the microwave on defrost mode. It maintains some of the integrity of the dough. We did not have dessert but the cannoli pizza sounds awesome!! read more

Not a kid-friendly establishment! They didn't have a kids menu, that's fine. We ordered for ourselves and asked if they could just make a grilled cheese. Waitress said no. I asked if the kitchen could just put cheese between bread and fry it up. Nothing fancy. She left and returned to say no since it's not on the menu. Okay. I asked if we could just order a slice of plain cheese pizza. She said no they don't do slices.‍ Then, our 3-year-old girl needed the restroom asap. I took her and the line was 5 ladies long. A restaurant as big as that and they only had one stall for females. The men's room opened up and the other ladies urged us to just use that. We did, and almost immediately someone started repeatedly pounding on the door. Even after I slightly opened it to inform them "a little girl is trying to poop." This ignored it until she was upset/anxious and done trying. We left and a few visibly intoxicated males were snickering at us outside. Apparently their Miller piss was more urgent. I asked for a manger but didn't get anywhere. The food we managed to get was fine, but not enough to compensate for the bad service and aggressive clientele. Management wasn't responsive either. May be a decent spot for a date or night of drinking, but NOT for a nice dinner or family outing. read more

Phenomenal place. I got the prosciutto pizza for my meal and boy was it out of this world. The lemon vinaigrette dressing on top was to die for. I have a hard time finding good pizza around here and this is the place. For dessert we got the Nutella pizza and it was amazing. I also got the caramel macchiato espresso martini and I HIGHLY recommend for a dessert drink. Great place I'll be back!!!! read more

The Brick - a chocolate pizza and a cup of tea - Pizza Near Me - Bethlehem, Pennsylvania

The food and drinks are good. However when we questioned the prize of a Sicilian pizza listed at $18 and charged for $29 we were told it was common sense that it would come up to that price when the piece of added items were not listed. The manager, Fabiola, was very rude and treated us like we were dumb and came at us very angrily while we maintained a calm tone while discussing how we just wanted to know why it had jumped that high. She was very rude and did not want to listen to Id, interrupting us and repeatedly telling us things were common sense and treating us like we were stupid. In review of other reviews she has been rude to other customers. Would not recommend just due to her not even willing to talk to us. Our waiter was great though. read more

This is my repost from grubhub: So we use grubhub almost twice a week. Never an issue. Last week our order was an hour and a half late due to unforeseen issues... tonight. The weather started to get bad. Snow but hardly sticking. We placed An order at 6:55 and called grubhub multiple times (each waiting 30 plus minutes) no one could contact the driver. Thank god the restaurant was so friendly and went way above and beyond. They not only called grub hub while I was on the phone and heard but stayed in touch w me to resolve it. The owner continually asked to bring the food himself to my home since I couldn't even reach a grub hub. Employee. He actually did come even after I said it wasn't necessary since it was now 3 hours late and not his job to be driving around. It is now 4 hours later and I have yet to be in touch with a grubhub employee.. So point being- their food is always great I order from Them often, but grubhub isn't. A bad rating from a driver isn't. Fair. This owner goes above and beyond for his customers and will do whatever is takes to make his customers happy! There aren't many places like that anymore! read more

I've been here a few times in the last two years and it's a solid spot for some speciality pizzas. My favorite is the sesame chicken pizza which has chicken, sweet chili, onions and arugula! A large pizza is a big size and can be split between multiple people. Their mozzarella bites are good but some were a bit cold by the time we got them. Drink menu is large but depending on the day the drinks taste different. For the price and location it's a place you should check out! read more
