One of the BEST gluten free pizzas I've ever had, coming from someone who has been gluten free for almost 20 years and has tried many different gf pizzas. I believe their dough is home made! Will absolutely be a returning customer. read more

Alvo - Pizza Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Alvo is a newish pizzeria serving NYC style pizza slices on Smith St nr the F train station. I was actually there for their 1year anniv (4/20) and they were selling their Red slice for $1 so of course I got 2. $4 normally. Friendly staff. Tasty pizza. Decent undercarriage, minimal flop, thin. I assume quality would be a tad better on non sale days given less busy. But it was gd enough! ample seating inside. 1 table outside. Best slice on Smith.

I've always passed by this spot, so finally decided to try a Red ($4) and White ($5) slice. They're pretty huge slices, but nothing too special for me here. It's great if you're in the area and craving some pizza. Plus, they have some good deals and it's pretty affordable. The menu is also quite simple, so it's easy. read more

Alvo - Red and White Slice. - Pizza Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Solid pizza spot in boerum hill! We came here for pizza and were pleased to have a good slice shop near us. We got a pie that was very solid

Back when I was in the neighborhood, I stopped inside of here a handful of time to try a variety of things. The general slice is fine being being perhaps a little bit doughy though with a better tomato sauce compared to the pretty nearby Pronto (I would also say it's a little bit smaller.) Just like that place, they offer a combo though this is a little bit different as it's a choice between two Red or White Slices with a dipping sauce and a can soda for $10 which is several more bucks than excellent fountain soda and two slice deal from the latter for $6.50 but you can also update for a buck more to the specialty slice or for a bottled drink. here. The main thing here I would say is of all things that is good is their salad. There is a $13 combo that comes with a reasonably sized salad, a drink, and a slice. The Crispy Caesar with romaine, roasted chickpea, breadcrumbs, and tahini Caesar is delicious. There is a whole lot of crunch, a bit of saltiness but not too much, and it just tastes fresh. If you want to have a bit more salt, you can also pay three bucks more for anchovies but they're not necessary and if you really love the salad, you can buy a large one for $16 but I found the smaller one a better deal as it gets a bit too salty with a large one. This place falls under a little bit of a weird conundrum in terms of price point to quality. It's not that much better than Pronto or My Little while being a comparatively smaller slice while simultaneously having a better salad of all things. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back here if I come back to Cobble Hill but it's a decent option. read more

The Good. -Alvo is exactly what the neighborhood needed in this specific space. There's no slice joint within a few blocks, and Alvo has filled the need perfectly. We often pick up their super tasty slices to bring to the playground, and they will deliver their consistently excellent pies as well. -The white slices are awesome, the meatballs are very solid, and the salads (tahini caesar!) are actually very tasty, and a step up from your regular (lackluster) romaine topped with bottled dressing you get at most pizza shops. -The crust is light and thin and crisp, the sauce is quality, the toppings are great (although I do wish they used the proper thick pepperoni that cups up). -They have chicken fingers and fries! Love that for my daughter who isn't always down with pizza. That being said, she's eaten Alvo and loved it every time we've gotten it, so I can't actually tell you if the chicken fingers and fries are good yet. The Bad. -I miss the bangin' Detroit style pies that La Rose (the previous tenant in the space) was slangin'. But we can't have everything, and that's not remotely Alvo's fault. -The crust is light and thin and crisp, so I personally want 3-4 slices to satiate me, but I'm also a notorious glutton and normal people are fine with two. This is also not Alvo's fault. The Ugly. -One time the delivery guy must've fallen off his bike or something, because all the cheese and toppings were slammed up against the side of the box. Still tasted great though, and I don't think this is Alvo's fault either. In case you can't tell, it's almost all good with Alvo. read more

Alvo Pizza in Cobble Hill serves up slices and salads, in which the latter uses vegan dressings! We tried their 18" White, which was topped with basil cream, mozzarella, ricotta, and prima donna, as well as their Crispy Caesar salad, which was prepared with Romaine, roasted chickpeas, breadcrumbs, and tahini Caesar dressing (in which we also added the Italian anchovy for $3). Their deals are pretty good, as the 'Double Slice' gets you 2 red slices (tomato, mozzarella, and prima donna), a can of soda, and a dipping sauce, and the 'Slice and Salad' deal gets you 1 red slice, a side salad, and a can of soda. Staff were friendly! Love the blue interior; there's also a counter and a few tables. +check out their deals +friendly service +look for the blue awning read more

Alvo is pretty fantastic. Workers are happy and genuinely nice, the pizza is objectively good for a ny slice. The crust is almost sourdough like, not sure what it is but it's good. Haven't tried the specials but the plain red is solid. Price point is decent although the slice size is a touch small - I'd go 2x as much at slightly lower price. Anyway great job guys read more

Yeyuhhhhhhhhhhhh. Queens best pizza place by far. N I've been everywhere from corona to happaugue. Hot staff, hotter pies. Yeyuhhhhh

The pizza here has changed my life. Strong words but I mean every letter. The salads are also the greatest pizzeria salads in nyc.

Amateur night at the Apollo. Alvo is an old fashioned Pizzeria, doing business in a new fangled neighborhood. There are four types of Pizza to choose from. I ordered two red slices, and I grabbed a seat. Pizza wasn't great, but that could be opening night jitters. Plusses are a large clean bathroom, and easy access to the F/G line. I'm willing to give them another try. read more

You certainly will not go here for the ambiance. it just doesn't exist here. These gents either have no clue about its importance or it's the least of their concern. Not only is their space just as lifeless and uninviting as the last family who owned the shop previously, they should take salad off of their marquee and take some salad making lessons. Awful! You'd be better off getting a salad at the deli across the street for half the price and a substantially greater salad of value and taste. Unfortunately this is their icing. If you're home and decide that you want pizza, check this out. Thin crust. Perfect saucing. Perfect cheese combo. Cooked to perfection. Too bad this pizza was not included in the last best pizza in the tri state pizza contest last week trying to ridiculously suggest Connecticut as the pizza haven of the tri state region. Poppycock! With over 60,000 pizza parlors in NY, Ct. Has not a chance at bingo! This pizza is boss. I and my friends have taken this delicious pizza to our tastebuds three separate occasions. Scrumptious! This is NYC pizza at its best. Don't look for service here after ordering. They have limited beverages. Ice doesn't exist. Seems like the best place to pass up on a hot day. AC does not exist with seating behind the over 500 degree ovens. Make no mistake about it. For those of you who ate pizza from the brick oven downstairs on Soundview Boulevard know what I'm talking about. Those of you who ate pizza in the pizza parlor across the street from Ann n Toni's on Arthur Avenues little Italy in the Bronx knows what I'm talking about. I'm saying all of this because this is the class of pizza we haven't had in NY since so many have declared that Robertas knows how to make pizza. Roberta's doesn't even come close. Not even their frozen supermarket fiasco. John's on Bleeker, tasty, but doesn't come close! Carlos in Yonkers on Central Avenue is better and the patron, god rest his soul, Peter passed a few short years ago pizza on this day are better than the first two I mentioned. You want to eat real NYC pizza, eat here. You Will come back. You will tell your friends. You will finally know what real pizza is all about. You won't be disappointed. read more

They delivered nine pizzas to my kids birthday party. The pizza was delicious and they were really friendly and helpful. The fried chicken pizza and the meatball pizza were huge hits. I'll be back when I'm in the neighborhood. read more

Really good cheese slice. Super thin crust, just the way I like it. Hope they do well.

Fabulous pies, excellent slices and salads. Caruso's was solid, serviceable pizza and La Rose's Detroit-style pizza was delicious but pricy (and a bit heavy). Happy to say that Alvo really delivers: perfect crust, quality ingredients, good value, friendly folks, cute space. Our new go-to pizzeria. read more
