    Cheese, Sicilian and Pepperoni slices
    Ka V.

    Pretty impressed with the pizza here. They're thin, crispy and easily folded in half just like how NY pizza should be. My husband and I love Sicilian pizza when we lived in New York and the ones we ordered from here didn't disappoint! [[HIGHLIGHT]]We ordered our slices to-go at the window and took our pizza box down to Water Street by the Riverwalk and had lunch on a bench with views of the water.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our kids finished all their slices too, and I loved that I didn't get that bloated greasy feeling afterwards. Highly recommend. Get the Sicilian!

    Fresh slice of cheese pizza

    Eating here was a happy little accident! We went on the ghost tour downtown and it ended at 10. We had not eaten dinner as we weren't hungry yet. We tried another pizza joint and their doors were locked, despite being during business hours, so we wandered around and happened upon this place! We all ordered a slice or two to go. I got a cheese slice and they had just pulled a pie out of the oven so I got a fresh slice! We all enjoyed our pizza immensely and two in our group even finished their second slice for breakfast the next morning, and they said it was just as good the next day!

    Pepperoni and cheese

    DELICIOUS!! Of course the moments leading up to finding this amazing place could possibly be the reason for making this spot taste even better. That is after having a long night out in downtown Wilmington, this is the place you'd want to end your night! The cheese melts right off but has that cheese pull that you want from any pizza. The pizza crust is nicely toasted on the bottom but not rock hard. Taste exactly like an wood fired oven baked pizza. One slice, although big, is not enough so be sure to grab more than one if they havent run out by the time youre next in line! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The lively seen of downtown will call you here at night for sure and you wont regret it![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Gyro Slice
    David S.

    Incredible pizza, so much flavor and totally worth every penny. I got the gyro pizza and it literally tasted like eating a gyro, tons of flavor packed in. They have a lot of different kinds so I kinda wish I ordered more to try. The staff was really friendly and they even have a takeout window which makes it super easy. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Only downside is it's in a sketchy area with a lot of homeless around, but the pizza itself is amazing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Bbq chicken slice
    Ben M.

    A solid slice, about exactly what you'd expect from an NC pizza, but definitely not worth 5$ plus the tip! However I can appreciate serving by the slice, a convent NY staple that many pizza places in the area miss out on for sure! If any other spots in town are reading this, a quick slice goes along way for convenience and could be something to consider!

    It used to be better. My wife and I got engaged in NYC. There's something so special about the city that never sleeps that they write songs and make movies about it. It's influenced popular culture and cuisine around the world. So many places claim to have REAL NYC pizza. Pre covid you could actually go inside and stand at the counter, or maybe sit at the table or two. I'd imagine covid stopped that, and they've kept their carry out model ever since. There are 3 tables and 9 chairs out on the sidewalk to give you a minute to eat your food, so don't be completely out off by the new carryout model. The pizza used to be amazing. $9.00 and change for 2 slices of carryout. The toppings, while not sparse, we're not generous. And the overall quality of the pizza was so-so. If you're looking for a quick bite to eat that won't break the bank, this is probably the place. If you're looking for the best pizza of pizza or a slice of nostalgia, keep walking.

    Have been here twice and it has been a wonderful experience. The fellas that helped us out were great-- they were funny, quick and friendly! The pizzas were to die for! I definitely recommend! [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's take out and they have seating outside![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Absolutely love this little place!

    Great pizza. We stop by anytime we are in Wilmington around meal time. The sliced meatball, onion and extra cheese pizza is our favorite!

    What are their hours? Nothing posted on door. They appear to close whenever...

    Sorry, I do not know --- when they are open the freshness fills the air. One of the pics has a website address. They are worth the trip! Or, give them a call Phone number…

    Never had a bad experience at Brooklyn Pizza on Oleander Drive. Staff is always friendly, inside is…read morealways clean and inviting, and food is always good! Pretty awesome selection of pizzas and Italian dishes, as well as other munchies you don't see at many other pizza joints that I've seen, such as the various stuffed rolls. Love that they have Sicilian pizza, my favorite! And you can get pizza by the slice which is always good in a pinch! Affordable prices, good portions, and reasonable wait times... as in, not at all any longer than necessary for your food to be made fresh and ready for you to enjoy in a timely manner! With my order this evening, I did try to place it online but for some reason the final send through button wouldn't not let me push it to complete my order. Not at all a big deal to me, as I could call if I wanted but also I was only a couple of miles away so I just went in. I only mentioned this to the guy working the counter in case they needed to know if there was a problem with their website. I sat behind the window where you can watch them make pizza. All the staff looked happy like they enjoyed their jobs and each other which was sweet. My order was ready promptly (Eggplant Parm) and for whatever reason, they decided to throw me in some cannolis as a treat! My meal hit the spot, and the cannolis are delicious! I just want to say thank you for the extra treat, it wasn't necessary or expected but it was very kind and much enjoyed! Thank you BPC for always being a solid place to enjoy a meal. The owners should be proud of their staff for always holding it down in all of the ways of kind, enjoyable, and efficient. Much love!

    This has got to be one of Wilmington's pizzas closest to a real Brooklyn pizza …read more Eat it while it's hot and crispy!
