    Calzone
    David L.

    This place cranks awesome pizzas out fast. Friendly and fast. Don't forget about the mid-afternoon coal stoking when the are closed, from 3:15-4pm every day. The best was the calzone which wasn't just plain ricotta but seasoned like for shells or cannelloni with an amazing sauce. The crust on the pizza was excellent!!! Love!!!

    Small half with Pepperoni and the other half just sauce and cheese

    We were one of the first customers seated, and right away we noticed how clean and welcoming the environment felt. The atmosphere was comfortable and inviting, which made the experience even better. Our server, Yakima (I hope I'm spelling that correctly!), was such a sweetheart. She was attentive, patient, and incredibly helpful while we tried to decide what to order. We weren't sure which pizzas to choose, and she suggested getting two small pizzas and doing them half-and-half -- which was the perfect idea. One of them was half white and half traditional sauce with pepperoni and prosciutto. You could truly taste the freshness in every bite. The ingredients were flavorful, high quality, and not overly heavy. It was satisfying without feeling too filling, which we loved. Between the delicious pizza and Yakima's kind customer service, we will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!

    First time visiting this spot and I truly enjoyed it! It was definitely packed when we got there but it was a family friendly place. The Pizza was delicious, I love the thin crust and cheesy. The lentil soup was okay, needed a little bit more salt but overall it was a great experience. The staff were friendly and patient.

    Inside was so cozy!!

    10000/10 will come back here very time I visit New York! I'll probably visit New York just to come to Juliana's. It was a very cold day in Brooklyn and it was so cozy, relaxed and no rush or wait at all inside Juliana's. It was perfect. I always get a large white with garlic with meatballs at Grimaldis and so I definitely had to take advantage of it here. Once I saw the flat pepperoni like meatballs, I knew the pizza would be a delicacy. It was the best meal I had my entire trip to NY. I did not get a better shot of their salad but it was super acidic (the very good kind) and a perfect starter. If you love olives, lime and salt then get this for you. Can't wait to come back!

    All the hype all the talk so we had to stop. Small place nice clean great service. Line around the corner but we were there as it opened. Ordered the OG pizza to experience it. That's where it ended. Totally overrated... maybe this is what you think is best pizza or type. None of us at the table felt this. No digs just not our style or taste!

    Very popular sitdown pizza in Brooklyn, with the crowds and lines to back it up. Dining room inside isn't that large, hence the wait, and you'll be sitting close to other tables giving some ambience. Ordered the #4 pizza and it was thin, crisp, tasty, salty, everything you need in a pizza without tasting too greasy or overly filling. The arugula on top was excessive, unless you're an arugula lover, but it was easy to pick off.

    So we rolled up on this place after walking the Brooklyn bridge in the evening on a Friday around 8pmish in September. We were 9 and they accommodated us on two tables side by side. This restaurant is small so seating a party of 9 was a big win! The service welcoming and efficient and overall "top shelf" - 5 stars. it's a cozy restaurant, the ambience and vibes were perfect - 5 stars. The beer selection was on point, I had a local IPA (I think Stonewall) and it hit the spot after the long day of walking NYC that day. The pizza was absolutely phenomenal...apparently this place is popular as a NYC fav, I can see why. Food and drink - 5 stars Highly Recommend when in NYC!!! Overall - 5 Stars!!

    a bit overrated, imo. I appreciate the pizza lore in DUMBO, but Juliana's had been a bit disappointing. it is a small menu and the pizza toppings are both very overpriced and not that great in variety. we ended up getting two large pies split between four people, which was not quite enough to be full. the interior was honestly a bit slimmer than I thought and maybe not the best place for large groups? the service was nice, if a bit slow. the pizza was good but fell short of my experiences elsewhere.

    Needed a bite that was kid friendly, Juliana's did not disappoint. We walked over from Time Out Market, immediately got a table inside for 5. The server was quick and could tell it was our first time. He made some recommendations and was back in no time at all. The inside was cute and you could tell it gets packed by a certain time, we were early around 5pm then the rush came. I like that you can see the team preparing the dough, they looked happy to be there making magic happen. Pizza was out fairly quickly and had the most perfect thin crust. My kids loved it and for a pie to be considered good by the entire crew is no small feat. We weren't able to finish but the leftovers made for a perfect reheat when we made it back to our hotel. I wish we hadn't eaten so much ice cream prior to dinner so we could've tried a dessert. The ring dings and tiramisu were calling me. 10/10 would encourage you to stop in and give it a try when in the area. Not crowded, easy access to bathroom and delicious meal.

    White Pizza

    Visiting Brooklyn, New York for the first time, we stopped by Juliana's for dinner. Juliana's is a classic Italian spot serving wood-fired New York-style pizza. The vibe feels authentic -- most of the staff seemed to be Italian themselves. As a table of two, we waited briefly in line before getting seated inside. We ordered the Margherita pizza and the White pizza with mushrooms. Both are well-known choices here, so it was a no-brainer. The pizzas came stacked on top of each other, and we got the smallest size for both -- perfect portions for two people. The pizzas were excellent overall -- maybe not the single best I've ever had, but definitely flavorful, well-cooked, and satisfying. The White pizza with mushrooms stood out for me, though the Margherita held its own. Both were classic thin-crust, New York-style pies done right. Pricing and serving size felt fair. One critique: I'd love to see Juliana's expand their menu with more specialty pizzas beyond the usual tomato-base or white options. Overall, a great dinner spot in Brooklyn. I'd happily return next time I'm in the area. Last visited: August 23, 2025

    I got two large pizzas (a white pizza & a Margherita) to go here and it cost almost $70. The pizza itself was OK. I personally prefer Grimaldi's. I learned that they do not have any current affiliation with Grimaldi's. The service also is OK. I went in multiple times to check if the pizza was ready and they did seem annoyed, but they were very busy as well. They are known for their Margherita pizza, but they only sell whole pies and not slices. They do not have gluten-free or vegan pizzas either. They are open daily from 11:30 AM to 3:15 PM and again from 4 PM to 9 PM. They have this break to stoke their coal-fired pizza oven apparently. In terms of the ambiance, they are very busy and have plenty of seating. Parking is very limited though. They also do not take reservations so make sure your entire party is present in order to be seated.

    We visited the DUMBO area and stopped at Juliana's before heading to the subway. A cute little pizza place. At 6:00 pm on a Tuesday evening, there was no waiting line for a table for 2 and we were seated immediately. By 6:30 all the tables were taken. Nice helpful and attentive customer service. We ordered a medium Margherita pizza + Pepperoni. I was surprised at how quick the pizza came out....piping hot with a nice thin crunch. Yum!

    Absolutely some of the best pizza I have ever had. Very small spot but man do they stay busy. True Italian cuisine and will absolutely be returning.

I tried looking up this pizza from Target Richfield for a review, but it sent me to the NYC location, so forgive me if this review is in the wrong thread. Anyway, wow. I've been to New York City and ate at the original Joe's Pizza. What an epic slice of pizza. Now back home in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the great white north of snow that never ends, I finally tried the frozen Di Fara pepperoni pizza from Target no less. Sorry Joe's, but this is on par with your pizza (if it was frozen). Dave Portnoy was right with his high review. This pizza is very good. The thick cut pepperoni, great basil, and the crisp chewy crust was excellent for a frozen pizza. Nice under carriage as well. I cooked the pizza at 480 degrees in an electric pizza oven for 10 minutes, and the result was very good. I added a drizzle of hot honey, and it was spectacular (okay, I also added some fresh picked jalapeños as well). The pizza was hot and melted in the center, and the crust was very crisp, but still had some chew. Wow. This was the best frozen pizza I have had. Bar none. New York, you spoiled me when it came to pizza. Now I can get a taste of New York at home. Great job! I may or may not eat the last 3 pieces currently sitting in the fridge before bed.

He would pull the pans with his bear hand out of the oven and generously drizzle olive oil from a rustic copper container over every pie. He would then meticulously inspect the dough for bubbles. Then pop back in the oven for the imported olive oil to permeate and create a beautiful glistening coat. And once cooked he would then graciously cut basil on top of the pie. Dom has now passed but his legacy continues. I've always compared the then pie vs now. And like most things,, nothing beats the original. This is still a very good slice. I once rated them as the best in NYC. Unfortunately, its not at the very top but still on the podium. Coming back feels like you are saying hello to an old friend. If you haven't been, you have to try at least once.

We ordered a whole pie half plain and half pepperoni, which is only $2.50 more. What I notice right away is the zesty tomato sauce, which Has love.

The menu does indicate that 18%, will automatically apply, or will be 20% for parties of six or more. We were only three people, so it felt inconsistent and unnecessary. On top of that, the added cost for credit card usage didn't help. I don't mind tipping for good service! In fact, I tip well--but I prefer having the choice and I'm old school so it's the principle of the matter. Being forced into it, takes away from an otherwise enjoyable meal. Bottom line: the food is strong and worth trying, but the billing practices leave a bad taste. If those were adjusted, this could easily be a higher-rated experience.
