Wheated just announced that they're going to start offering substantial vegan options so I had to rush over here and tell everyone how great this place is and what an amazing addition it is to the neighborhood. After that I might have to rush over to Wheated for some pizza. They've offered a cheeseless version of one of their pizzas for a while, so I already know that the crust and sauce are delicious. And now that I can get enough food for a whole meal? New favorite spot. Other reasons that this place is great (and reasons that I have been going here loyally since before there were vegan options): - Barrel-aged Negroni. It is the best drink I have ever tasted. The Manhattans are pretty outstanding too. - The bartenders. They have so much enthusiasm. It's contagious. In a good way. - The owners. I'm pretty sure they're around every night. I'm pretty sure they literally built the restaurant. That's how much they care about making this place great. And as demonstrated by the new vegan options, they really listen to the folks who come in and then make improvements. How great is that? read more

This review is based only on the wait times for takeout. I called right at 6pm when they open and waited almost an hour for a pizza order that they said would take 15 minutes, while other people, takeout and eat in orders got their food all around me. When I went up to check on my order and told the server how long I'd been waiting, I received no apology or acknowledgement. This is the second time I've had this type of takeout experience here unfortunately. The pizza is consistently good and I wish the takeout experience was better but I probably won't be back after this. read more

I love this place. I've been there dozens of times and I love the food. We went last night (Sunday) to grab a pie. I checked their website to make sure that they were still open since it was already in the evening. They close at 11pm and we get there at 10:15pm. We are told that we can not be served because the kitchen was closed. Really at 10:15pm? But, they're still open. Bad business if you can't make one more pie at 10:15. We probably would have been done and gone by 11pm. The waiter was apologetic and all, but I told him that the website should be updated to reflect the closing of the kitchen to avoid any future confusion. That whole encounter left a sour taste in my mouth. I'm giving them 2 stars because I have experienced better from them. read more

We tried Bay Ridge and Bensonhurst and both were amazing! First time trying their spicy honey with their pizzas and I'm so in love with this honey! Their home made siriracha sauce was great too- I would definitely go back and try other menus :) read more

Pizza and hospitality was just great! Added a non-alcoholic homemade beverage and was in heaven. Topped it off with dessert and I'm ready for my next outing to the restaurant! read more

Excellent vegan pizza options (Ditmas Park and Park Slope pizzas can be veganized - our fave is def the latter). Add crimini mushrooms and vegan sausage for a real treat. Pizza dough is so delicious (coming from someone who cares little for pizza crust). Service has been consistently friendly. Great bar, always excellent music playlist. read more

Great whiskey and beer but the food selection leaves you want more. Of course I know the main focus is pizza here but you d always wish to have smaller fare too like appetizers maybe some wings . They have three appetizers and all of them require the love for marinara sauce. Especially in the colder months the warmth of whiskey almost asks for some other warm hearty dishes or meaty appetizers. Hope to see something different soon would definitely come back more often then read more

I can't say enough good things about Wheated. DiFara's aside, the stretch of Ditmas Park/Kensington/Midwood between Park Circle and Ave J has been long known for a lack of truly magnificent pizza. DiFara's, while fantastic, doesn't make for an easy, relaxed meal, and San Remo on Cortelyou is good, but not good enough to truly elevate it to the level of NY pizza greats. This place definitely is. My partner and I headed over on Saturday, which was the second day of their soft opening. We got there at 6pm, right when they opened to the public. The decor is kind of contemporary farm/rustic, with exposed beams, wooden benches and tables, etc but still a little bit hipster. Jazz was playing in the dining room, which was nice. We were given the choice to sit in the dining room in the back, or at the bar. If you're into it, they had a cocktail menu and full bar, we had red wine with our pizza. Also, we had water at the table and I was really pleased that we were given a large crueset of water along with our two glasses. I am a huge water drinker, and I always have to flat the waitstaff over and over to come and refill, so that was a nice touch not having to do that. We chose the dining room, and were seated in full view of the pizzas being made. The menu had five choices for pizza, each named after a Brooklyn neighborhood. We had the Bensonhurst, which was their take on the classic Italian pie - fresh and aged mozz, tomato sauce, romano cheese, basil, olive oil... and also the Caton Park, which was a white pizza (fresh and aged mozz, olive oil, parmesan) topped with arugula. Within about 10 minutes of being seated, this place was packed, and all of the tables in the dining room were filled and about half of the front bar area. We had the opportunity to watch the pizzas being made in the kitchen area, and these guys were super efficient, and appeared to have really worked at finding the right rhythm to crank out delicious artisan pies at a great pace. I was initially concerned that we would wait a long time with such a crowded space (having been conditioned by DiFara's) but we got both of our pizzas together in about 10 minutes. As an aside, I'm a vegetarian, and I noticed that at the station where the pizzas were sliced, there were separate pizza cutters labeled "meat" and "veggie," which I appreciated a lot and not every pizza place has. It's these nice little touches that really sold this place for me. Our pies were delicious. They were personal-pizza sized, each one had about six smallish slices, so definitely an order of two or more is appropriate for two people. Some of the other tables with three and four people ordered three and four pizzas, and they were so light they were all devoured. For us, two was just right. The crust was really thin and light, and had a just-right balance of flaky, charred texture without being burnt and too tough or too heavy. With our pizzas, the Caton Park crust was perfection, the Bensonhurst was a little underdone in the middle, but still delicious. I imagine as the kitchen crew grows in confidence they will be able to deliver more consistent crust across the various toppings. The sauce on the Bensonhurst was fantastic - it was a hint of tangy, not sweet like a lot of corner pizza places, and really flavorful without that overbearing thyme problem also common to a lot of corner pizza places looking for flavor without really thinking about balance. The cheeses were perfectly melted and bubbly, and had a just-right congeal mixed with the olive oil. Not at all rubbery or one big blob. Really, this was easily the best pie I've had in this neighborhood, easily on par with DiFara's. The Caton Park was delicious also, the cheeses under the arugula were really good, and the arugula itself was sprinkled very generously with grated parm. All in all the service was great, the waitstaff was super friendly and attentive, and the pie was delicious. I can't wait to see this place grow and try the expanded menu as they build it out. I did inquire about delivery, they are take-out and dine-in only. Definitely a pizza win, and this will probably be our go-to pizza place from now on, with DiFara's as a nice treat when we're in the mood for the long wait. read more

My previous visit here was good - this time I came with high expectations that were not met. The pizza was tasteless, we ordered 3 different ones and they all were bland. The beer also was tasteless. We were all fairly hungry and normally not very critical. Service was prompt and friendly, but that's not enough. read more

Happy to see such a hip looking place on this part if (well, less hip Church Ave) but the kitchen and staff may need a bit of time to consider some of the elements here that are less than stellar: Jazzy names for pizza of any sort is NOT enough: the pizza we had was cold ... We had it as take out but only around the corner! The issue seems to be confusion from kitchen to serving staff... Hipsters at a bar serving up drinks? It's cool and all, but a lot of us real neighborly folks LIVE here and actually don't want a show: just good food and good people is fine for us! Love the decor. That's an A+ Work on the 'delivery' (literally) that's a C+ Cool the 'cool' down : that's a B- Try offering great PLAIN pie with just a piping hot marguerita style pie and with a family style size coupled with salad as a good solid offering! All round grade : B Thx read more

Pretty attentive staff and unique selection of drinks. They make their own tonic which is not that good, but I appreciate it all the same. A welcome addition to the neighborhood. read more

I would go here almost every month and loved this place. Something has definitely changed with the pizza... maybe a new chef? Ingredients? I went back once... not good.. gave it another chance for old times sake... still no good... the pie was noticeable smaller (6 small slices versus 8), too much sauce, the center was soft (not left in the oven long enough), and just not as tasty as I remember. I am making this post in the hopes that management reads this and brings back the pizza that brought me here consistently for the past year. read more

A great cocktail bar with friendly bartenders and a great whiskey selection. The pizza is delicious.

nice neighborhood place. pizza is very good, and so is their famous Brussel Sprouts salad. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable - the atmosphere is pretty relaxed and there's a great vibe. read more

This pizza was ridiculous. Get the Vinegar Hill pie and Eggplant Risotto app. It will blow your mind.

Love this place. So happy when it opened! Amazing pizza, salads and drinks. The spicy honey is genius. The only thing is they tend to get my order wrong 80% of the time. But its so good I try to over look that. Very nice staff. read more

Haven't had good pizza in a while until I tried Wheated pizza. My friends insisted on eating here and after months I'm happy to say it was great! Little personal pizzas with great flavors and textures. I highly recommend this place. It has a great atmosphere and the staff are so kind. Ps: make sure to tried the siracha and honey combo!! read more

Damn good 'za. One salad and 2 pizzas is the exact right amount for dinner plus leftovers for two people.

If Wheated was ANYWHERE else in the country, it would get more stars for being decent pizza. However, for being in New York it's somewhat forgettable and definitely overpriced. The ambiance of the place is really nice, but the actual pizza wasn't that special. I came with 2 friends and we ordered the Kensington (with garlic) and the Bensonhurst (with onions.) Both tasted fine, but the onions on the Kensington were a weird texture; they weren't caramelized, but they weren't crisp still-- it was a little hard to eat given the texture and size of the pieces. I also couldn't taste the fresh mozzarella, but the flavor was overall good. The Besonhurst was the same with the cheese situation; the fresh mozzarella was indiscernible, and there was a strong garlic flavor but we were all expecting chunks or cloves (which wasn't the case.) Again, it tasted pretty good but wasn't very special (or worth the price for the size.) To be honest, the most memorable part of the pizza was the crust (which I definitely appreciate- having moved to TX three years ago, I can truly say that finding good pizza dough/crust isn't always easy!) Overall, I definitely didn't' leave disappointed, but I also don't think I'll be back. If I did, I'd definitely try a less "traditional" pizza like Vinegar Hill or Red Hook. Just a thought! ...And, for what it's worth, the service was fantastic! read more

I've lived In the area my whole life, it took me a long time to try this place. Once I did and I was of age, I started taking my friends here. The pizza and the drinks and everything is amazing. Nothing smells better than fresh pizza being made right in front of you ( if you're sitting in the back area ) read more

I give them 3 stars for trying. It's definitely not as good as all the big names but I can see that they are trying. The dough really needs work. It's way too thick and chewy. The toppings and the creative menu were on point. I see a lot of potential in this place and especially for the locals, they're lucky to have it in the area. I wouldn't go out of my way to come here however if you are far. read more

This pizza joint is not your typical spot which makes it amazing. They have all there pizzas named after local places in Brooklyn. They do many different creations which are very yummy. They also offer a vegan cheese and sausage substitute. I was impressed by both. The hot honey is what makes this place so awesome. It's the best part you will absolutely love it. Definitely a hidden gem here in Flatbush. read more

Literally nothing bad I could possibly say about this place. I'm obsessed with their pizza!! Don't forget to try the mikes hot honey on the 'za too--elevates the whole experience. Cocktails/atmosphere/service all excellent as well. Highly recommend!! read more

Spectacular experience. Good service. Good pizza. Dustin the bartender was great and the owner is extremely nice.

Loved the cocktails, but the pizzas were even more amazing! Definitely try the East Williamsburg pizza, had that with hot sopressata, amazing combination. The Limerick cocktail was a great twist as well, parsley with Irish whiskey, definitely something different. Got there at 7.30pm on a fri night and we were seated right away. The waitress was really awesome and great service all along. Btw here's the kicker - 600 whiskeys in the bar, the most in any bar in Brooklyn apparently! Definitely a must do; will definitely come back, thanks Wheated! read more

The best pizzas in the neighborhood. The cocktails are good, but a bit overprice for the quantity you get. I would love for this place to give a good clean to their front window!! If they open for brunch on the weekends, that would be so good. read more

Finally got around to trying Wheated, and was not disappointed! I like the space, and the staff was welcoming and attentive. Since we were going to share a meal, my friend and I had a salad to start, it was fresh, flavorful, and the portion was very generous. We shared the Sunset Park pizza with hot sopressata and it was delicious. Add some cocktails to the mix, and a very helpful server, and it made for a great evening. We'll be back! read more

The pizza is simply delicious. The ingredients are fresh and there are many wonderful options to choose from. Definitely try the Thai chili powder and spicy honey. The bar is also amazing...the place is laid back and cozy. read more

Wheated does it right all the time! Excellent food, drinks and service. Everyone I introduce to this place loves it. Per the review about the lack of pizza at 1015. You know, this guy really cares about each pie he makes. He runs out, deal with it, come back another night. Have a drink and chill. To give a two star review for running out of dough not long before closing for the evening is BS. You can never determine EXACTLY how much you need each night, it happens. I would say the primarily awesome reviews speak for themselves. Rock on Wheated, you're one of the best! read more

Wheated is as close to perfect as you can get here on earth. Wonderful pizza, amazing drinks, happy hour after 9pm. I never thought I would find a "local," but I think I have. Really really good. You must go. read more

This is the absolute best Pizza in NYC hands down. This is what my wife amd I call "boutique pizza". If you are looking for standard Brooklyn Pizza by the slice, this ain't it. The staff is wonderful, the drinks are wonderful. The kitchen staff even come out and say "hi" on occasion. The whiskey selection is the largest I have ever seen. When you go there order this... (It is not on the menu but they will make it for you if you ask) Windsor Terrace with Pineapple, Fennel Sausage, Jalapeños and fresh basil. It will set you back about $25 but you won't be disappointed. The owner's name is Dave and he goes out of his way to make sure that everyone is happy. Glad to have such an amazing local place of quality! Thanks Wheated! Tell em Tah & Kole sent you. We haunt this place probably twice a week amd more if we have guests visiting. Any excuse to get back there! read more

Salads are generous in size, drinks are on point. Pizza is lights out. Get the nyc style with pepperoni

I am updating my review because the owner reached out to apologize and I appreciate his genuine concern. During my visit we were blatantly ignored by the waitstaff and had to be served by the bartender. We did enjoy our food. I do think if the waitstaff have better training on customer service it would make this establishment better, and make people more likely to return. read more

Delicious pizza, excellent drinks, open late. One pie is perfect for two people, so it ends up being a pretty cheap dinner - perfect for a neighborhood spot. read more

WOW, My taste buds are on full alert after my first visit to Wheated. What an awesome little restaurant! Went with a small group of friends and we didn't have to wait too long for a table, the hostess was very friendly and noticed us the moment we walked in. Our waitress was equally pleasant, and got us all our drinks quickly. I'm usually not one to buy odd cocktails, but they were delicious, and worth every penny, Particularly the Scofflaw, which was not only delicious but packed a punch. We sampled four of their pizzas in total, a couple vegetarian and a couple with meat, and they were all fantastic, just really well made. And here's why: 1. The dough was expertly crafted. Soft, crunchy, and beautifully colored with whites, tans, and browns. If this place is able to maintain that quality of dough, I'll be a long term customer. 2. The cheeses used on each pie were superb. perfectly measured and melted, and well combined with each other unique ingredient. 3. The sauce was the only area for improvement I can think of. Each pie had just enough so as to keep the pie from being too soggy (which is awesome, not ONE PIE was soggy at ALL!) but at times I found myself wishing there was just a bit more sauce or olive oil to dip my crust into at the end.... The owner stopped by our table during our meal as well, just to see how everything was. He was incredibly friendly and definitely made us feel at home. That kind of laid back personal touch is really great, you usually don't get that at other restaurants in this neighborhood. The bottom line: It was a bit more expensive than I would normally pay for pizza, but this is way more than just a slice on the way home. The flavors going on at Wheated are well worth the journey, and elevates pizza to a whole new level. Stop reading this and go check it out for yourself! read more

Absolutely amazing pizza, very nicely balanced. Drinks are exceptionally good as well. I often do not get cocktails because proportions are always off and I feel like I have wasted my money on some flavored syrup. But that is totally not the case here. I have tried multiple drinks here with gin, tequila and bourbon, and I was really impressed with how good all of them tasted. I love that i have this place in my neighborhood, but it is does worth to travel to. I highly recommend !!! read more

The kitchen closes at 10.30pm. What is the point of coming to a pizza place open until midnight that closes the kitchen at 10.30pm? At least put it on yelp. Miffed. read more

Overall, this is arguably in the top echelon of pizzas in Brooklyn, and the bar makes it even better. The value and ambiance is heads and shoulders above the competition, like the over-priced and irritatingly popular Franny's in Prospect Heights. We went here to try it out on a Wednesday night at 8pm with a small group of friends and we were seated immediately. The bar in front is beautiful, and I could see how this would be a great spot to have a drink and then a pizza when you get hungry. We ordered the salad special, arugula with shaved fennel, parmesan and oranges, and three pizzas. The "Ditmas Park" was an outstanding pizza for not even having any cheese--it is quite garlicy and showcases the somewhat miraculous crust, which is a uniquely delicious crispy and thin sourdough. The "Sunset Park" was also very good with a spicy soppressata, as was the "East Williamsburg" with mushrooms. The naming of the pizzas as Brooklyn neighborhoods is very clever and makes choosing fun. All pizzas are $10-$15. The list of specialty cocktails ensures something for everyone, and they are made to pack a punch. The beer list is also very good, and offers a $4 draft (that night it was a Lionshead Pilsner). Service was good and very friendly (pizza makers came out of the kitchen to ask how the pizza was), although plates were not cleared efficiently. The decor is just slightly off (although the wood details and the bar are beautiful)--the dining room tables are oddly arranged and slightly askew, making the space feel like a coffee shop after a day of people moving chairs and tables to accommodate their work. Outstanding! We will certainly make this a regular place on our list! read more

My absolute favorite neighborhood pizza place. It's no ordinary run-of-the-mill pizza joint of NYC. It is tucked away in the middle of a "not so great" street with little signage and dark lighting from the outside. I will often go there for takeout or dining-in. Great drinks, late-night happy hour, very friendly staff, AMAZING PIZZA. And you can't forget to mention their famous 'spicy honey' to dip your slices in. I couldn't recommend this restaurant more! read more

Great servers and staff, amazing pizza and my 8 year old daughter said "the sriracha brings me to my happy place"
