My husband and I tried this place again but this time, we tried the hot subs and when the subs came out, the ingredients and appearance reminded me of a Philly steak with the smothered cheese BUT you know what amazed me was the BREAD. Toasted, is that the right term? I didn't think making the bread right had anything to do with your sub but that's how I want to eat subs from now on and I know where to go to get a really good meat sub now. The bread was toasted and soft. A lot of subs I've tried in the past at different restaurants are either non-toasted and soft or soggy after you put the meat and ingredients inside, or they're toasted and hard to bite down on but this one was PERFECT! The staff is always sweet and cordial, and the place is clean. I hope they stay awhile. read more

A Touch of Brooklyn - Votalindo Sub (I could be misspelling it but it starts with a V and it's served hot (temperature) and it's so good!! - Italian Near Me - Fort Pierce, Florida

I also don't see the negative reviews of this place. A group of three of us dined here for lunch, and aside from the akwardness of ordering (you sit down, with menus at the tables but order at the counter) it's alright. The service was fine after finding out how to order, and the guy that took our order at the counter (Chianti Joe) was very friendly. I had some plain penne pasta with sauce, which came with a salad which was ok, the dressing I had, creamy Italian was lackluster at best. It really had no flavor, which was odd to me. The pasta was good, and the garlic knots were tasty. read more

A Touch of Brooklyn - Garlic knots - Italian Near Me - Fort Pierce, Florida

The food is some of the best in Fort Pierce. The last time I called for delivery it was closed but I hope that is only seasonal as I love their Chicken Parmigiana. Very nice family run and own this restaurant. read more

Disappointing. 1 soup, 1 sub, 1 dinner and 1 pizza for $55. Couldn't order online to get the 10% bc I wanted to order 2 different halves of pizza and they got the order wrong anyway when I ordered over the phone. Owner offered bread for messing up the order but I will not be returning. read more

A Touch of Brooklyn - Here is the crew - Italian Near Me - Fort Pierce, Florida

See all

Honestly don't know what all the reviews hating on this place are about. I almost didn't go here because the reviews made it seem like the staff were horrible. On the contrary, our waiter was delightful! He was charismatic and attentive without being overbearing and clearly had a great report with the regulars. The food was tasty, not the greatest I've ever had, but definitely good enough to return. Garlic knots were very scrumptious. I had the whole wheat pasta with Alfredo and my boyfriend had the chicken Parmesan. Both of us left feeling very satisfied. Ignore the other reviews that say the staff are horrible, those people must've just caught them on a bad day. I even heard a table tell the waiter "we'll definitely be back". So there you have it. read more

Soup Nazi - Ok, I've had enough of this place and their attitudes! We've given this place more chances than they deserve. Talk about "The Soup Nazi"! It is funny on TV but sucks to be George in real life. Believe us they will get you. This guy REFUSES to give you any sauce!! Even when they gasp at your request and ring it up you still don't get it! WTF! We also have to listen to they're "holier than thou" attitude to people. Reading all the negative comments we can relate, any competition would surely succeed. read more

What can I say?.... Best Italian food in the Fort Pierce area! Being Italian is hard for me to find good italian food arround here, except for this place. I highly recommended! read more

We asked a local in town what a good place to get pizza was and he recommended that we go here so we went out of our way to but it was quite disappointing. A large standard cheese pizza is not expensive at around $11, but toppings are $1.75 or more so the cost of a pizza can add up quickly. In addition to ordering two pizzas we also ordered a large antipasto salad which for $10 should have been much bigger and have not included tasteless dressing and pieces of old lettuce. Upon asking for silverware and extra plates the owner seemed annoyed which was irritating considering we just gave him $50. The biggest disappointment about this place, though was the pizza. Pizza is my favorite food and I consider myself to be a pizza connoisseur and this is the worst I have ever had in a restaurant. It was nice and crispy and had a decent amount of cheese but there was hardly any sauce on it which made it incredibly dry and unappetizing, even for an extreme pizza lover like me. Upon asking for extra sauce and explaining that the pizza was dry the cashier responded to my request by trying to charge us for sauce that should have been adequately applied to the pizza in the first place. This is the worst pizza and experience I have ever had at a pizzeria and while I do not write reviews often, this hands down wins my worst pizza award and I felt compelled to write a review to at least get some vengeance for the horrible pizza we were served here. If you are in the Vero Beach area and are craving pizza, I highly recommend that you do not even consider eating here and wasting your money unless you want the driest and least appetizing pizza you could possibly taste. I still love pizza, but this place might just ruin it for you if you have the misfortune of eating at this sad excuse for a pizzeria. read more

We've been visiting Fort Pierce for 10 years and always enjoyed pizza here. In the last couple experiences however we found the service and the attitude on ordering and picking up a pizza to be quite strange. Whether it's New York attitude or simply rude management we are concerned. For example ordered to go pizza last week and they said it would be 45 minutes .I showed up 50 mins later and they had not made the pizza yet.I saw them making it and asked if it might be a box on the oven as it should be done already....????and the seasoned guido at the oven acted like I should be quiet and thankful he is doing it at all! So I waited 15 minutes and left with a pie and bad attitude. My son said they were rude on the phone too. So next time in town I will switch back to the other guidos at Lorenzo's ! read more

A Touch of Brooklyn - a don't sweat the small stuff treasury - Italian Near Me - Fort Pierce, Florida

Have ordered from here at least 3 times but it's mostly for lack of more convenient options. One time we ordered a Margarita pizza and when they delivered it we had to call them back and tell them they forgot the basil!!!!! What - how can you forget the basil. But it gets better...they said first we could come and get some but they will not bring any out...we said "no, you need to fix this" and so they said they would bring out a baggy of basil but leave it at our condo's entrance gate - then 20 minutes after that we called to check on it and they said they were not coming out at all. We tried again a year later and the order was right but food was just OK. Then we ordered again, subs and chicken parm, etc. this time around. One of the subs was an Italian sausage with onions and peppers sub (I was on a diet) which was very good and so hearty a portion I could only eat 1/2 so kept the rest in the container for lunch the next day. The next day I went to eat the other 1/2 and found it to be about 10% of the sausage and peppers which were in the first 1/2 so I was completely disappointed. The last time we ordered just a pepperoni pizza and the underside of the pizza was burned black. Because the crust is so thin and the pizza a little soggy (mmmmm) it seemed not to effect the flavor too dramatically but as you know, any amount of a burned flavor is too much. So why 2 stars and not one? Because I will probably get takeout form them again and I couldn't possibly respect myself if I gave a place 1-star then ordered from them again. read more

This is what I am talking about! We are so lucky to have true italian's at heart honoring the art of pizza making and doing it with gusto! Both locations in Fort Pierce are charming, smells amazing, they are clean and the service superb. When I think about pizza, this is where I go. Look no further. This time I also tried the chicken parm, one of my favorite dishes, the chicken was thin, generous and delicious. I could have used some italian music, but the music was fine. read more

WORST PLACE I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED. Poorly ran business, miss managed, rude owner and can't believe this place is still in business!!!! NEVER got our food- what was told to us that the wait would be 1 hour - still over 2 hours and still did not have our food, called to find out how much longer, told them to cancel the order and the OWNER told me "I had no heart for an independent business owner." I said because you can't prepare food for 15 people and give the correct estimated time of delivery - when you advertise delivery ???? On top of everything - not only has this place charged my credit card for no food or services rendered she has done the same for the other families gave their credit cards for payment. NEVER GOT THE FOOD AND WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND TRYING THIS PLACE! read more

Well we're do I start, the old guy who owns the place was very very rude when it came time to not have tomatoes on my wife's sub. The reason being is she's deathly allergic to them but he decided to put them on there anyway once we got the subs talk about watching out for someone's life. So the future people out there if you have any health concerns about certain foods do yourself a favor live do not go to this place. If you do check the food before you leave. Good luck. read more

Their pizzas are good, really good. They can sometimes be overwhelmed in the service department, but I've always been treated courtesly. Sometimes get delivery from their North Shop and I've never had a problem. Past three years, my office has had their holiday party there and it is a big hit. read more

This place is closed. They closed over a year ago so how they have recent reviews is weird to me. Now a new place opened about 3 months ago but it's called Pizza shack. Touch of Brooklyn sucked. The owner and his girlfriend had terrible people skills. They were rude and I wouldn't spend a dime there. Now the new owners of pizza shack are the nicest people ever. They make you feel like family read more

Food great, service questionable. If your are thin skinned, buck up because they are gruff. The lady owner was rude to my husband 2 days ago about the fact the margherita (sp?)pizza was one size they don't make a small, just one size. Jeeze!!!sorry for the misunderstanding!! The food is fantastic. All of it. I don't get the rudeness factor. Someone should nominate them for restaurant impossible on the food channel. They could use an etiquette class. I just keep my distance and don't expect them to be courteous. Been coming here for years because of the food, tips are low because they don't do a lot for you except deliver the food to the table. Too bad about the sometimes borderline hostile environment seems the younger servers are scared half to death! Poor kids. I've never had a meal delivered. read more

Excellent pizza even gluten free. Owner present & everyone friendly order up front at counter they bring to you. Lots of pasta dishes. People at next table had veal another eggplant, raved sbout them wine bar/pub on one side Packed house & lots of take out. Had a pepperoni pizza 14" for 8.95 plenty for 2. Thin crispy crust. Also had sicilian pizzas. This is a place to go at publix family dollar west marine shopping center on us 1 at m hutchison causeway. Great! Clean friendly. We will be back! read more

I stumbled upon this delectable Italian hot spot for a first date with my significant other. Pleased to walk into the family style atmosphere, and the best of all was comforting live music. We both ordered just a traditional spaghetti and meatball dish, the pasta was cooked perfectly and the homemade marinara sauce was delicious. I would highly recommend A Touch Of Brooklyn for a generously portioned, moderately priced meal. read more

Should have ALL FIVE STARS!! This pizza place has been around for awhile and my family loves it! Great pizza / food and awesome service! I recommend highly :) read more

My wife needed to visit the dentist, so I stopped for lunch. I loved the decor and the pizza, but the reason for the 2 stars is because it shouldn't take 43 minutes to get 2 slices of cheese pizza. read more

Wonderful broccoli rabe, fabulous grandma pizza and if you like rice balls (anachini) you'll love every bite. Now imagine being serenaded by a great singer to the songs of the 50s. The perfect dinner experience from 6 until 8 on Friday evenings read more

ok never had been before. there is NO wait staff - you get up and order at the counter. take a number your food comes (hopefully). Ordered a bottle of beer and a wine. Owner (the lady) brought over the wine and stated get your own beer its in the cooler! WHAT... food tastes good. owners are rude and grumpy. Its a shame, i would have maybe gone back - but the owners - ruined it. The bartender was very nice! read more

I called at 5:35 pm to place an order for pick-up and was told it would be 30 minutes. I arrived exactly 30 minutes later and had to wait 5 minutes in line due to them being very busy. No problem with that. When I got to the cashier is when everything went down hill rapidly. First, I was charged $3.99 for a canoli when the menu stated $2.99. I was told there was a price increase and that's what it was. So I had them take it off the order. When the cashier was doing so, the manager (maybe owner?) made a snide comment to her on the side about me removing the two canoli's from the order. When the cashier handed me my debit card receipt, the total was $0.25 higher than what was originally quoted. When I inquired about the charge, she pointed to a sign (actually a hand-written "policy" on a paper plate) on the side of the counter that said "$0.25 charge for all debit/credit card use." I asked her if she knew that was illegal to raise a bill based on form of payment and she just shrugged her shoulders. This is where it really gets bad... The same manager (owner?), a very gruff 60+ year old man with a NY/NJ accent heard what I had said to the cashier. Without saying a word, he opens the cash register and tosses a quarter on the counter. I told him the $0.25 wasn't the point and that I was informing him of the law. He said "It's my policy, I like to do it." then turned his head and walked away. At this point I had already signed my bill so I didn't cancel the order. I waited, and waited, and waited. Finally 60 minutes from my original order time, my food came out. The same manager (owner?) handed me the food like nothing had happened and said "Have a nice day." The next issue came just a few days later. My wife and I just had our first baby. A friend of ours decided it would be a nice gesture and order us some dinner and send it to the house. She found A Touch of Brooklyn on-line and ordered because they said they would deliver. Our home is 5 miles north of the restaurant. When she gave them the address, she was told that it was too far and the minimum order had to be $30. So our friend called us and I assured her that must be a mistake because they told us before that they would deliver to our location. So I called and a rude man with a NY/NJ accent (I'm assuming the same one as above) said that was his policy and he wouldn't change. So our friend had to add an additional order to have it delivered. I own a retail business and know what customer service and retention is all about. This is not the way to treat your customers. I have NEVER written a poor review on a public forum like this, but felt I needed to. I have never been treated so rudely from any business. I know that my not returning won't hurt the bottom line, but I wanted my terrible experiences to be known. read more

Here the last two nights for dinner and everything was excellent! Wonderful pasta dishes and terrific pizza.

To be honest, I cannot give this more than a star...the food might have been good enough, but the service and treatment of our table was way wrong. We sat right away, but then is when the wait began...calamari, a pizza, one baked ravioli, and 2 children's spaghetti. And we waited...people sat across the room from us, and we waited...the new guests pizzas we placed on their table(and yes, I said pizzas...plural), and we still waited...then the calimari was delivered, and, eh...they finished, boxed leftovers, paid and left, and I finally had to say something to who I assume was a manager or above, and I was told it was because that only ordered pizza, and we ordered a dinner(my baked ravioli must be holding the table up)...and we waited...then...a salad! I was so happy! It was "eh", you know, just a side salad. Then the maybe manager returned to tell us she was pushing the children's spaghetti out asap...10 minutes later, the children were eating, and then ravioli, and a pizza...AN HOUR+ AFTER ORDERING! Pizza was acceptable, ravioli was alright(all 4 frozen pieces drowned in sauce and cheese)...I am not even going to get deep into the food, it was acceptable...the service and attitude was unacceptable for the price...FAIL read more

Don't bother unless you appreciate long waits sullen staff and an owner who doesn't show any sign of caring. Twice in a row orders were wrong. Waiting times were three times as long as we were informed over the phone and e didn't even get an I'm sorry. Will not be going back. read more

Pizza is great, my daughter loves the spaghetti and tells me the meatballs are better than the ones I make highly offensive, I love the antipasto salsa and the porta de Gina Sub. The owners and manager can come off rough, but the food is delicious read more

BEWARE. The prices shown in the menu are not always what you will be charged...they could be $2 higher as happened to us. The server does not tell of this until you get your bill. Also, on a $9.25 bill they added $1.00 for sales tax when it should have been 55 cents. When I mentioned that the sales tax was calculated incorrectly the server just looked bewildered and didn't do anything about it. I deducted the overcharged 55 cents from her tip. I was with a group of twelve and we will not be going back because they have pulled this trick on us before. No more chances. read more

Pizza was ok. Tiramisu was something frozen they almost thawed out. Biggest kicker was the six dollar delivery charge. I recommend staying away at all costs. Lazy lazy lazy. read more

The pizza is some of the best around. The garlic knots are very tasty and full of garlic and the antipasto salad is excellent. You have to order at the counter and they bring the food to you, but we've never had a problem with the service. read more

Pizza is OK. We ordered 4 pieces to take home. The cashier gave me the loaded box and I asked if everything was in the box. He said "it's heavy." I did not want to insult him by opening the box. Shoulda done it. When we got home, we had only 3 pieces. I am fairly sure it wasn't done intentionally but even accidentally, it's not good attention to detail. read more

Best food in town. Portions are huge. Pricing great. Wonderful atmosphere. Came in from Texas to visit family and found this spot! Go there every time I come into town. A must check out! read more

the food was outstanding, but the service lacked alot. wait staff got orders around us wrong, bills had to be recalculated. service was slow. food coming to table was slower than i would like. their was a large amount of people, so i am thinking they were just possibly training a couple of new waitresses. overall, i would like to go back, the food was outstanding. read more
