Needed a quick lunch with my kid on Sunday and stepped inside. The outdoor dining area was full but we found plenty of seating inside. We ordered 4 slices. 2 pepperoni, 1 creamed spinach, and 1 plain cheese. The slices were ready in minutes and we enjoyed right away. The pizza is great thin crust pizza and while the pepperoni and creamed spinach were delicious, the plain cheese was the star. It was simple. Tasty. And had a lovely crunch. Will def be back. read more

Upside Pizza - Pepperoni and mushroom - Pizza Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Got our slice of NYC pizza at Upside in Brooklyn and it did not disappoint. I got a slice of the vodka pizza which uses vodka sauce as the base. It was so delicious! The pizza was thin New York style but the bottom still had a nice crunch to it. The crust was really good too. Everyone working in the shop was super nice and even gave us free samples of soft serve ice cream that they were serving. A+ NYC Pizza experience at Upside! read more

4.5 stars. It's the Brooklyn NY pizza you want. It's the pizza that holds its shape. It's the pizza with the sauce that's just right. The pizza with the right ratios. I loved the sicilian and the spicy vodka. Great yeast flavor to the crust. This is REALLY picky, but the crust is slightly too hard for my liking. I like a little more chew to my crust. Near close to perfect though. read more

I was shocked at how good this sourdough pizza was, I had never had sourdough pizza before! I was really just expecting normal slices, and it added a certain "je ne sais quoi" () to the pizza. Delicious! *Also, the guys behind the counter were really friendly! read more

Yum yum yum - got a cheese slice and a pepperoni slice after hanging out in Ask for Janice. Thought the salt level was perfect, good sauce to cheese ratio (one not overpowering the other), and was piping hot! Thought the crust was pretty tasty too. I wouldn't go out of my way, but definitely coming back for a slice or two when I am back in the area. read more

Upside Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Very solid late night pizza spot in the area. Not much is open this late but this pizza is pretty yummy! It's the most amazing in the city but it's really good. There's a speakeasy in the back that's pretty cool too read more

To be honest, I really wanted the grandma slice but he put this slice in the oven quickly and I didn't object. The slice was piping hot when it came out of the oven but it was a bit on the saltier side. For $5, it's also not the cheapest slice either. For these reasons, I probably wouldn't come back here unless in a pinch. It's not bad, but certainly not the best. read more

Pizza Slices. GOOD. Nice sized Slices with plenty of flavor. I could smell the Pepperoni off the topped Slice. Don't know why UPSIDE doesn't make the BEST of Pizza lists. RECOMMEND. read more

The pizza was good, but at $5ish a slice, not entirely worth it in my book. Scratched the itch but would likely go elsewhere next time! read more

Upside Pizza - Norm's Spicy Vodka and Sausage Broccoli Rabe - Pizza Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

One of my new favorite slices in NYC. I'm still thinking about this pizza days later. I didn't see a written menu so I just ordered by pointing to what looked the best, and my eyes did not deceive me. These slices were AMAZING and I can't wait to be back!! read more

Upside Pizza - Mushroom, WWLC, Norm's Spicy Vodka - Pizza Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Consistently poor tasting pizza. Sad because the interior is very cute. But I have had many different slices at many different times of the day over the course of the last 8 months and all of them have sucked. :( read more

I thought this spot was pretty good, especially for being open that late! The mushroom slice was excellent, really fresh, creamy, well-cooked mushrooms. To nitpick, some lemon zest (like Fini) would've taken it to the next level, but it was great. The next best was the spicy vodka, which had more of a tomato (almost tomato paste) flavor and less of the creamy tang that comes with vodka. But that being said, the texture of the dough was great. The square slice was last, because of the recook, the bottom was burnt while the middle and top were cold. It was pretty bad :( all things considered, I'd come back for a late night slice, and probably stick w the mushroom. Thanks team! read more

PLEASE keep this Softside location open all year round! The ice cream is fantastic but it's closed a lot of the time.

I stumbled upon this place and fell in love. I was going to go for the pepperoni pizza then I saw the mushroom pie. I asked the guy if it's good, of course he said it was... I wanted to be the judge of that. It was AMAZING !!! Tastebud overload but in a good way. I highly suggesting getting the mushroom slice but make sure it's fresh. The slice is made with a white wine lemon cream sauce. Y'all it so so so good! I literally ate here for a few days straight and had to force myself to stop. There's a decent size dining area to eat your slice, you can eat in front of the restaurant as well. Not to sure but it gives speakeasy vibes because there's a door you can go in to a club/extended restaurant. read more

Upside Pizza - Mushroom, WWLC - Pizza Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Not really all that great. Just a basic slice with a good crust, but not much flavor. And too expensive for the quality. It will satisfy your low blood sugar or drunk hunger though. read more

The 4th Upside just opened in Greenpoint, the biggest location yet. There are a few outdoor tables up front, with the space for the upcoming 2nd Softside right next to those, followed by the slice counter and more seating, with a big area in the back and a full bar coming soon. Otherwise it's the same thing, serving a bunch of great slices. Didn't see squares yet on opening day, but probably coming soon. read more

Pizza is getting more and more expensive by the year - my goodness. I think my specialty spice was like $6. This place is brightly lit and service is fast. Came in late night. I was still hungry from dinner so went for the mushroom slice. Just what I needed to satisfy the tummy. read more

$17 for 2 "meh" slices and a beer. There's better places to go in the neighborhood. But at least the service was yawn.

I would rate Upside Pizza three and a half stars. Shared a sausage and peppers slice with my wife. Super thin crust. Some of the crust broke about halfway through so it could be sturdier. Toppings were all good. read more

Very 4 stars. 12:20am after a pitcher of beer with the boys. Hits just the spot but nothing like New Haven pizza.

Pizza here overall is super delicious! I have to say their Spicy Vodka Slice is my new favorite NYC slice. I'm all for a thin flavorful slice and this place has definitely got some good options. The mushroom slice was delicious and my bff said the pepperoni slice is just perfect. The guys who make the pizza are super patient and answered all my questions and made some good suggestions. I had to go back for the Spicy vodka slice again and definitely will be back!! Their bathroom is clean and they are expanding to have a bar type vibe in the back, very Brooklyn! Love this spot so much! read more

Solid New York slice. No frills just good pizza at a good price. Perfect for grabbing after grabbing a drink

Poor quality. Inconsistent. Price gouged. I keep wanting to love Upside and have given this location so many repeated chances as it's incredibly convenient for a quick lunch being right across the street from my apartment. First off, what NYC slice flops all droopily like that, even when folded? Don't think it's an oven issue because the bottom crust does appear to have a satisfactory char. The issue is in the ratio of toppings. Soooo much cheese! Way too much sauce. On top of that, the fact that these slices are 5 bucks a pop regardless of whether you're getting all veggie toppings, sausage, pepperoni or plain cheese.... inflation is real, and restaurants have been put in an impossible position over the past few years, but most slices in the city run about 3.99 to 4.50 nowadays. And Upside is no small struggling mom and pop! With four locations across the boroughs, this sort of price model is pretty surprising COUPLED with the poor quality ingredients and inconsistency. read more

Upside Pizza - What good New York slice flops like this? - Pizza Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Always walk past this spot in Greenpoint, Brooklyn and always say that I will stop in for some pizza. Well I finally did and it was so delicious!! Not just your typical tasting pizza from a pizza spot. The sauce, the cheese and the breading was delish and I enjoyed every bite! The place is very clean and they have a very nice outdoor seating that's kinda built into the restaurant. read more

I was at a bowling alley with friends and we saw a bunch of people with Upside Pizza boxes, so I walked down the street to grab some. It was late and Upside was the only pizza shop open in the area - and luckily it was incredible!! THE most satisfying slice read more

The pizza is amazing I had a grandma slice and it was everything you could dream for . 10/10 just got . And don't forget to ask to use the bathroom read more

This is one of my favorite slice shops in the city so it was great seeing them open a location in Greenpoint. They have a good amount of seating inside, plus a few tables out in the front. There also seemed to be an additional seating area in the back that is yet to be completed. But the most exciting part was seeing that they will be opening another outpost of Softside here. Cannot wait to come back for that. Their soft-serve is pretty amazing! read more

Upside pizza got my stomach upside down. Ordered a slice of the broccoli rabe & sausage, and pepperoni pizza for dinner. About an hour after my dinner, my stomach started feeling very funny and eventually I vomit everything back out. I didn't have anything else to eat after lunch, which was 5-6 hrs before that. So I know for fact, i got sick from the pizza. Will not go back for sure. read more

Had the Mushroom WWLC a long time ago and it was one of my favorite slices in NYC. But I got it again today and it was definitely seemed like it was missing several ingredients. It was more of a mushroom slice w garlic. No lemon taste, no white wine taste, no lemon zest. Makes me sad. read more

I came all the way from Harlem and was starved. Happened to come across this gem! They make great pizzas, have a cool environment and the service was spectacular!! read more

The only way to get to use the bathroom in NYC is to purchase something. We'll I decided to give this place the benefit of the doubt and get garlic bread. Oh my lord the garlic bread didn't even taste like garlic bread it tasted like sour dough bread. I think they need to re do how to make garlic bread. Unfortunately I bought 5 pieces of it thinking it was going to be good I was very unhappy. read more

Great food. But the man who pulls the pizza is so rude. I ordered some slices, and he gives @sshole vibes & makes no acknowledgement of me speaking but puts the pizza in the oven. Later, the kids I was with said they wanted to sit in the booths, and he decided to speak- rudely! To tell us we couldn't sit there. But a woman was back there in her laptop? The kids said, "but that lady is there!". She then moved into a different booth to hide. So the 4 year olds sat at a high counter where they inevitably dropped their pizzas. I've told a lot of people about this place but this interaction made me embarrassed. Not going back. read more
