Good food and nice ambiance! We stopped by for a quick and kid friendly dinner, ordering a kids pizza ($8 for four slices), speck pizza ($24) meatball appetizer ($16) and a fall cocktail ($14). The meatballs arrive with a scoop of ricotta and the speck on top of the pizza really benefitted from the char (restaurant's namesake!) with a nice crisp that balanced out everything else. I just found the rest of the slice to be a little flimsy (soggy sort of, but not in a bad way!), likely because of the truffle oil and the hot honey drizzle this particular pie comes with. Everything was good but, aside from the kids meal and the drink, felt priced $2-$3 higher than it should have been. I suspect they just folded their CC fees and maybe a bit more into their menu, since we didn't get hit with an extra charge when the bill came. Service was friendly and the pasta dishes looked great too (money bags seems like a fan favorite!). read more

12/7/25. Party of 6, got a table no problem @6:30 on a Sunday. Shared the mozzarella sticks with fries, zucchini chips, baked clams (not enough garlic), burrata and fried calamari (good). Entrees varied but I had the money bags (minus tomatoes) and it was tasty, the sweeter pear inside paired well with the champagne cream sauce. Tasted the chicken Marsala and it was good too. Ended the night with tartufo and zeppoles (def skip these, like hard dough squares with sugar, gross). Cute little bar area. Amanda our server was on point. read more

We love this place, and when we were on L.I. for my birthday (and to visit family), we came HERE for my birthday dinner. Very busy and NOISY place, but it worked out fine when my 1 year old granddaughter started to cry. Nobody could hear her, lol. The only way to dine ! Naturally, my husband and I both ordered their chicken parm with vodka sauce. Still amazing, delicious, and PERFECT. I LOVE this dish, and of course, had plenty for a second meal... which I never got to eat. My husband ate it. Good thing I love him cuz I wanted my chicken parm for a second meal but never got it. Hmmm. My daughter and son-in-law split a gnocchi dish and some kind of sandwich, which they liked, but they both thought the chicken parm is still their favorite. I don't get to frequent this place since we live far, far away, but I would NEVER deviate from ordering the chicken parm in vodka sauce ! It's TOO good !! read more

Food was delicious. Server was very helpful and knowledgeable. Really enjoyed the salad read more

Pizza is so fresh, airy and crispy. Baked clams are delicious little necks with an amazing dipping sauce. Highly recommend and will be back! Note: they don't take reservations and at peak times due to limited tables can experience a wait time read more

So I was slightly disappointed with this place to be honest. We got multiple apps, a pasta, and pizza, with everything being rather mediocre. The pizza dough was cooked very well and tasted good, but the top was soupy and a little dough like. Im assuming the brick oven temperature was off, since the top doesnt fully cook when that happens. Felt like this should not occur at a brick oven pizza spot. The baked clams were very good and the best part of the meal. Their meatballs were average. We got the money bag pasta to split which I thought was overrated. The sauce was good, the tortellini was slightly under cooked and the shrimp added a very odd mixture to the taste. I'd Def say the shrimp is unnecessary and doesnt go. Service was decent, not bad, not amazing. The resturant itself is a decent size and has all table and chair seating. Bar area looks nice and they do have a nice cocktail menu. Overall, rather average spot. read more

Charred is always a fantastic dining experience every time we visit. On our latest trip, we ordered the stuffed rigatoni, burrata ravioli, veal Milanese, and chicken parmesan. Each dish was fresh and delicious. I just wish they would take reservations but their amazing food is worth the wait! read more

My husband and I had a very difficult weekend personally speaking, so we decided to use a gift card we received for this restaurant. We placed an order for a sandwich and zeppoles. My husband came and picked up the order. When he got home, we realized we were given an entirely different order with the exception of the zeppoles. We called the restaurant right away and offered to bring the incorrect order back. We even said we would be willing to pay the difference if needed, as we understand that mistakes happen. However, the manager told us we would have to pay full price for a new sandwich. This was really disappointing. We were not asking for anything unreasonable--just a fair solution to an error that was not ours. We completely understand that mistakes can happen, but the response we received felt dismissive and unfair. We hope management can reconsider how situations like this are handled in the future. read more

This place is amazing! Service is great and friendly. Restaurant is beautiful, clean and orderly, but the pizza is outrageous. I ordered the mortadella pie and I have to tell you as a native Italian that I've never eaten a pizza so unique and delicious is my freaking life. Not cheap and deservedly so- every penny is very well spent here. New customer for life. read more

Not a huge fan of this place. I wanted to love it, I really did, but I wasn't impressed. It took a while for a waitress to come and greet us and the drinks were poorly made. We had the meatballs to start and they were actually good. I had the chicken parm and the chicken was really thick. Too thick for comfort- I was afraid of getting a weird bite and I definitely did. The sauce on the chicken parm was good but the pasta was overdone. My friend had the broccoli raab pizza and she liked it. I won't be back read more

Did I not review Charred ? Hmmm We loved it here despite the kind of haphazard seating, pizza boxes lining the aisle where we sat. It's been about 10 months, so perhaps the dining room has changed. We had a Margarita Pizza, a good way to feel out a Brick Oven's skills...good, solid crust. Our daughter loves a Vodka Chicken Parm Rigatoni & this did not disappoint. I had the stuffed artichoke, and it was fabulous. Really good in a nice lemony sauce, not just a pool of oil& breadcrumbs. The filling seemed to have Panko which was a nice twist & held together well, showcasing the flavors & ingredients. We want to return with a group but they do not accept a reservation, so will stick to returning on an off night with 2-3 people. read more

I stopped into corner restaurant- Charred Brick Oven, because American Waffle house was closed as of 3pm. **o I watched as cups were baked in circular - electric/flame oven for gnocchi and cheese. I ordered one. I also ordered a Chicken dish. Server was nice and took time to answer my questions about the oven. I found the two items very expensive. Food tasted good and there was ample amounts, too much for me. .So, a nice Italian Restaurant in Massapequa off of Merrick Road. This said, I am partial; as I guess my mouth was in the mood for Waffles- I do not expect to be going soon. read more

I've wanted to try this place for a long time now and it's nothing how I pictured in my head inside. You walk in to the brick over which is cool that it's a centerpiece of the restaurant. The pizzas all smell and look incredible. The sauce is a bit too runny, but it has really nice flavor. The menu has a lot of different options too. The waitress was attentive and really helpful in choosing what to order. read more

I've wanted to check out Charred ever since they opened in Seaford. So far, in the last month, I've dined here twice. Both times, I was very happy with the food. The first time, I had the Chicken Parmigiana which came with Rigatoni. It was cooked perfectly and the sauce was really good. And the portion was really big. The second time, I had the Shrimp Oreganata. I've never had this dish before, but it sounded good so I decided to try it. It definitely was the right choice! The shrimp, white wine sauce, breadcrumbs was such a good mix. I definitely recommend it. I had a slice of the Veggie Italiana pizza that my friends ordered and I thought it was one of the better pizzas in the area. I'm always in the mood for Italian food, so I will definitely be back! read more

Charred Brick Oven just gained another fan! My cousin and I stopped in last week as I had driven by in the past and heard great things. Honestly, though, nothing could have prepared me for the delicious culinary experience I was about to embark on. First of all, during the summer, everyone has to try their watermelon salad! It was phenomenal with a unique and yummy blend of flavors. I also highly recommend the gnocchi bomb, which was one of the best sauces and pastas I have ever had! The service was a little rushed, but I understand as the restaurant was busy. I will definitely be returning! read more

Went here for the first time....Place was comfortable with good service.....Nice size menu....I bet their pizza is the best thing they do....WE had dinner instead.....I ordered shrimp orreganata over linguine...The shrimps were real good BUT the pasta was way overcooked and there was way too much sauce in the plate that drowned the linguine.....My brother had chicken parm which was good but his rigatoni was way over cooked....If I decide to back there again it would only be for the pizza read more

This pizza should have been a contender! What we experienced was a great waitress and a perfectly cooked Fritto Misto during our visit. Charred Brick Oven is one of Newsdays top pizzas for 2022. I had this place bookmarked for a while, I want to try some of the outrageous sounding pizza and fate had us in the area. I thought I'd grab a pizza to go but I see the oven front and center, let me drink a cold one on tap and whatever we don't eat then we'll take home. We're seated in a fancy pizza spot with checkered tablecloths. There is a bar to the right side to have a beer, I'm not sure if they do slices here. The Fritto Misto comes out first. Cooked perfectly and not too greasy, this was a great starter. The sauce that came on the side was also very flavorful. So far so good. We ordered the Grandma pizza because we wanted to try the best of what Charred Brick Oven has to offer. The pizza comes to the table. The crust isn't burnt but well done. The ingredients are all high quality, from the sauce to the cheese, this pizza is ready to slay dragons. So why three stars?? The dough was overworked and made the gluten tighten up. The crust was really hard to bite through. I tried to use a knife to cut the pizza into bite size pieces and it was hard to do. I'm not going to write off this spot, my first time here and they had technical difficulties on Sunday. read more

Super cute spot that somehow is casual but not too casual. Great food-- definitely the highlight of the restaurant. Cocktails and service were okay...needed to ask for water refills when our glasses were empty for quite some time and the cocktails ranged from too strong to too weak. Would come back to eat the gnocchi and pizza again! read more

Hannah our waitress was great. Nice personality and provided great service. The meal I ordered which is the one I always order, was not as good as in previous times. I always get Money Bags but this time the shrimp was overcooked and the stuffing in the pasta wasn't as great as I remember. I'll give them another shot in case this was a one-off read more

We have been to this restaurant over 50 times now, and have never had a bad meal ! The food is always great ! And the main reason I am writing today, is because of the fantastic waitresses there. Especially Amanda, Taylor, and Gabby. And every time that we eat there, we seem to have a great conversation with all of them !! And I've noticed, how they always are very attentive to all of their customers. And whom ever one is our waitress, we always enjoy, very much, having them serve us. As they all seem to make us feel so very comfortable, and as if we are their friends !! And I rarely ever write these types of letters....Only when the people impress me, a lot !! And P.S....Try Their " Money Bags " meal !....To Die For !! It is excellent !! Thank You. Frank Giordano Seaford N.Y. read more

Based on my second visit, the food was consistently delicious. The portions are very fair. I went for a birthday celebration with my friends and we all had a blast. Israel was a very attentive waiter, and got everything correct and on point. Everyone enjoyed their meals and they even brought out a dessert with a firecracker-like candle (not pictured, sorry!) Pros: Great tasting food Interesting menu Portion size/pricing Cons: Small bathrooms (not wheelchair accessible) Time to receive food (This is a small restaurant and they get everything out as soon as possible it's definitely worth it, just make sure to have to time to go). read more

Tried Charred Brick Oven last night and this is not your average pizza place! I walked in expecting some chicken wings and Neapolitan pizza but the menu has so much more! Amazing drinks (see vodka martini pic with floating crushed ice), the most tender grilled octopus over cannelloni beans, delicious kale Caesar salad perfectly dressed and their wood fired Neapolitan pizza topped with fresh meatball and basil. A great meal, laid back causal nice ambience and a bar tender that worked her butt off the whole night while smiling and providing amazing service! Home Run! read more

Christmas Eve, one of the few places open late (10pm) and for a single guy who sees his family on Christmas day, this is perfect. As a regular, i expected nothing less than a great meal and was not disappointed. Sat at the very cozy bar with long time bartender / manager, Melissa who is always pleasant and very attentive throughout my meal. She kills it, works hard and never misses a beat. I was torn between a few items and Melissa helped me decide on my meal. For an appetizer i had the mussels in a red sauce, outstanding and plenty of delicious broth and garlic. Entree was linguine and white clam sauce, no surprise here, fresh clams, tasty broth and plenty of garlic. Dessert was the warm bread cake with vanilla ice cream paired with a grand marnier. Yum! All in all, a great experience, great food surrounded by a great staff on Christmas eve. read more

This is a really great neighborhood spot that fits the bill for a quick weekday night dinner. Here's how Charred measures up: Pros -never a problem getting a table -wait staff is attentive and welcoming. Lena is especially friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy -the food is really great; portions are huge and the brick oven pizza is pretty good -prices are reasonable Cons -it's unusually loud inside; I'm not sure if it's because of the rounded shape of the restaurant but it was really booming -the prices are on the higher side but they're on the corner property on Merrick road so maybe that's why Worth a trip anywhere in nassau county!! read more

Charred brick pizza is a charming restaurant in Seaford. It was bustling when I came for dinner on a Wednesday night, but we were seated pretty quickly. The highlight of this meal was the fried eggplant appetizer- the eggplant was so good and it went so well with the tomato and the mozzarella. The pizza I ordered was just alright. We also ordered a few of the mock tails which I probably wouldn't order again. This definitely seems like the hot neighborhood spot even on a Wednesday night. The servers were all very friendly and came to check on us many times which was very nice! The food is alright, but definitely get the fried eggplant! read more

Came with a group of friends, first time for me and this place was delicious. Started with Caprese garlic bread and woodfired wings. both were delicious. I had the game changer sandwich, also delicious; fried chicken breast, with buffalo mozzarella, arugula, roasted red peppers, hot honey & fig jam. The chips were homemade, hot, fresh, and delicious. Fried, cheesy, spicy & sweet. My friends ordered the gnocchi bomb, and the homemade eggplant. Everyone was very happy with their meals, everything was delicious, and I definitely need to come back to try some other dishes. Staff was friendly and attentive. Highly recommend. read more

Every time I come here I really enjoy myself. If you're here the Kickin Fig Martini is a must-have, follow it up with the Rainbow Cookie Martini for dessert.

let me start off by saying that the food is okay, certain items on the menu can use more flavor. the sauce on the pizza is very acidic. The waitresses are very nice but the owner has a horrible attitude against groups that come in with young children. this seems like a family oriented place so I don't understand why the owner wouldn't want children in here. I wont be coming back. read more

I went with a friend for dinner on a Monday night. They don't take reservations, but we got there at 6 and they sat us right away! We ordered a bottle of wine, the prosciutto and pear pizza as well as the gnocchi bomb entree. Gnocchi tossed with vodka sauce with ricotta and fresh mozzarella on top in a bread bowl - all great things together! I could have done without the bread bowl since it was a tad stale and just added more gnocchi, but still a good dish! Prosciutto & pear pizza- delish! I ordered this for takeout once before, but no surprise that it's way better right out of the oven! read more

This was our third time trying charred and we've been consistently disappointed. Everything is so overpriced. I don't mind paying when the quality is good but it's just not. The pizza sauce is so acidic and we didn't even get the marinara sauce for the mozzarella sticks, which were like rubber anyway. The salad dressing was like syrup, too sweet. The lettuce was wilted and tasted old. The pizza is floppy. The whole meal was just a mess. read more

We returned today and I'm glad we did! Outdoor table on a sunny holiday afternoon. The Nonna Eggplant was a superb entree!! As good as homemade in a delicious sauce with a huge scoop of ricotta on top. The only thing that could make this entree better is a small side of pasta! My other half enjoyed a mesclin salad with grilled chicken. Also very good. We both were too full for coffee and dessert, today was a very goood choice for lunch! read more
