    Great neighborhood spot. I stopped in after getting a haircut across the street. Lady behind the register is really sweet & kind. All the slices were perfect & not too salty.

    6 Garlic Knots - loved the fresh garlic
    Kien T.

    We stopped by for a quick lunch and it hit the spot. The staff was very nice and the pizza was thin crust and crunchy. Just what we wanted. The garlic knots was fresh garlic which is a must in our book.

    Cheeseburger lunch special
    Chris P.

    Our neighbor recommended this restaurant to us because of their $10 lunch specials. My fiance was craving a cheeseburger and we took advantage of the special by ordering through Seamless. I also decided to order Fried Calamari which was also $10. Seamless order went smoothly but delivery was 30 minutes late. We were hungry and started to get cranky that I ended up calling the restaurant to check on the status. The status was our order was the last delivery order and apologized for the delay. Once we finally got our order, the food was still hot thankfully. My fiance devoured his cheeseburger and fries which were still crispy. My calamari tasted good especially after not having it for over three months, however, it started to get soggy so I had to devour it. This place is definitely price friendly and popular because of their lunch and daily deals. Food portion and quality is great for the price. We would just not order it through Seamless. We would call and pick up our order.

    Please double check your bill before paying! The prices on the menu are not what they bill for. They charged me more for each item we ordered and when we asked them about it, the manager told us that they have a right to change the prices without informing the customers (!!).

    THE SAUCEEE! I feel like I'm always wishing for more sauce when I go to pizzerias but this place loaded the pizza with sauce and the crust was so crispy! My friends and I were actually planning to go to another restaurant nearby but they weren't open so we wandered into this one. I feel like business isn't doing so well but then again we came in at 3pm. SUPPORT THIS RESTAURANT AND GIVE THIS RESTAURANT A TRY! Please refer to the picture to see the sauce. Plus, super big pizza fed three 24 year olds for $20. Very nice :)

    Sausage Risotto with mushrooms and spinach

    This is my go to for the daily specials and occasionally pizza. The food is always FRESH, HOT and DELICIOUS. Tonight I wasn't feeling well and was on my own for dinner. I went online to view their new website. They offer FREE delivery if you order online!! Saves me money over Seamless After looking at the entrees, specials and such, I saw Sausage Risotto with spinach and mushrooms. I immediately ordered. My meal arrived within an hour and when I say I have found my new favorite comfort food, I am NOT lying! It is perfectly prepared! Not mushy or under cooked; it is creamy and delicious. I dug in before I could take a pic I was so excited! It was served with a beautiful semolina bread and a side salad. I added a 2 liter of soda. It was definitely enough for two meals and cost less than $25! I have been a frequent patron since November of 2016 and have always found their food, desserts and customer service TOP Notch! Please don't change! Forgive the paper plate! Lol I have the flu

    Fried calamari

    By now, Bocconcini has been in the neighborhood for over a year and a half. It replaced another restaurant in the same space. A renovation was done and then, came the grand opening. My wife tried the food shortly after the grand opening and said that the pizza was good. Shortly afterwards we ordered the pizza for delivery. Throughout the months, we found that Bocconcini was indeed one of the better pizzerias in the area. I recently had the chance to dine in and in the process, finally found out what it was about Bocconcini that made me order again and again from them. We ordered an extra cheese pizza, fried calamari and an order of buffalo wings. While we were dining, the owner came over and I told him how much we liked the pizza. He went on to fill in the blanks as to why the pizza is different and better. Firstly, the crust is not oily. Secondly, the cheese is not cheap cheese where oil is added and the grease cooks out of the cheese. If you lift up one of their slices vertically, you won't see a drop of oil fall to the pan. Finally, we learned that the owner eschews canned products. To me, the most obvious example of this is their mushroom pizza. You will smell and taste the umami of a Bocconcini mushroom slice. Bocconicini makes other typical Italian-American dishes that aren't pizza. We enjoyed the calamari and buffalo wings and we could easily discern it's quality. In other delivery orders, we tried their pastas which are equally solid. In conclusion, Bocconcini serves the quintessential New York slice at a higher quality than your typical slice shop. The prices are very reasonable and the table service was good. All in all, I would continue to order as their combination of value and quality couldn't be matched in the area.

Even my brother, who's a very picky eater, thoroughly enjoyed his meal. The food smelled so incredible on the drive home that I was honestly tempted to pull over and eat it in the car. For takeout, you exit the main entrance and walk around the corner to the back of the building, where they have a separate area serving pizza and other quick bites. When I arrived around 5:30 p.m., the restaurant was bustling, and the takeout counter was lined with orders waiting to be picked up. They also offer outdoor dining. While I was waiting, I noticed the portions being served to diners at the bar, and they definitely don't skimp. The servings are generous, which makes the value even better. It's easy to see why this place is such a neighborhood favorite. Great food, generous portions, and a welcoming atmosphere. I'll definitely be making the drive from Brooklyn again.

We ordered a slice of Grandma pizza, cold antipasto for two, calamari fritti, Caesar salad, pasta alla vodka, shrimp scampi, and chicken Francese. Needless to say, we left with plenty of leftovers. The standout item was the Grandma pizza, which was excellent. The crust, sauce, and overall flavor were exactly what we were hoping for. The other dishes were good, but generally average and not particularly memorable or exceptional. Nothing was bad, but aside from the pizza, nothing really distinguished itself from similar offerings at other local Italian restaurants. The service was personable and friendly. However, it fell short of exemplary. We had to ask several times to have our water glasses refilled. To be fair, it was a very busy evening and our waiter appeared to have his hands full, which likely contributed to the oversight. The décor felt somewhat dated and could benefit from an update. While ambiance isn't everything, it does contribute to the overall dining experience. For us, the biggest drawback is location. At about a 25-minute drive from home, we didn't find the experience compelling enough to justify a return visit. There are simply too many other restaurants on our list that we'd rather try or revisit. While we don't regret giving it a chance, it's probably a one-and-done visit for us.

    **Toskana Pizzeria -- grandma pie excellence, plus legit Neapolitan and Sicilian**…read more Toskana Pizzeria is one of the few neighborhood spots that can pull off *multiple* pizza styles without any of them feeling like an afterthought. If you're the type who actually notices crust structure, bake quality, and balance--not just "is there cheese on it?"--this place earns the five stars. **Grandma pie (the headline act):** This is the standard. The crust has real integrity--crisp edges, that satisfying caramelized corner bite, and a base that stays structured instead of collapsing into a soggy regret. The sauce tastes clean and well-seasoned (not overly sweet), and the cheese-to-sauce ratio is dialed in so each layer is doing its job. **Thin-crust Neapolitan:** Excellent bake and flavor. You get that lighter, more delicate feel with a proper chew, and the toppings don't overwhelm the dough. It's the kind of pizza that tastes "simple" in the good way--because the fundamentals are right. **Sicilian:** A lot of places treat Sicilian like a dense bread block with toppings. Not here. Their Sicilian is actually well-made--airy enough to enjoy, sturdy enough to satisfy, and baked so it has texture instead of being a soft slab. The common thread is consistency: everything feels deliberate, properly baked, and balanced. If you live in the area and you're not ordering from Toskana, you're basically choosing to make your life harder for no reason. Five stars.

    Toskana is really close by and after seeing Dave Portnoy's review, I decided to check it out…read more Plain slice: Really solid. Nice cheese pull, good balance of sauce, and probably my favorite of the bunch. It held up well, not floppy at all, with a slight crisp on the bottom. BIG FAN! Chicken broccoli: Just OK. I've had better. The chicken was slightly burnt, which was disappointing. Grandma spinach & artichoke: Pretty good overall. It's similar in style to Artichoke Basille's Pizza, but not as rich or creamy. Margherita: Underwhelming. Nothing really stood out and I've definitely had better elsewhere. That said, I'd still go back just for the plain slice. You really can't go wrong with it. It's a thumbs up for me!
