    Tried the Neapolitan pizza for takeout and thought it was just okay. The crust had a nice char, but overall the pizza felt a little unbalanced. There wasn't quite enough sauce or cheese, so it was missing that combination of richness, acidity, and flavor I look for in a really good pizza. Not bad, but for me it was pretty mid and not something I'd go out of my way for again.

    Wowww, sooooo disappointed !!! 11/18/25, Tuesday night at 4:30 PM the wife just picked up a Sicilian pie eight slices for $26. bucks ... Soggy, soggy, soggy !!! No Crisp What so ever, Very chewy & Raw Doughy !!! Been a customer since 1989 Always had fantastic everything definitely had one of the best Sicilian pies around but no more another one bites the dust !!! Ozone Pizza on Liberty a lil out of our way but definitely worth it !! Greg D

    4.5/5 Stopped in for takeout at La Villa in Mill Basin. Service was friendly and efficient, especially for a busy Sunday. My Penne Alla Vodka with chicken cutlets was ready in about 15 minutes -- super flavorful, creamy, and well-seasoned. I'd give it an 8.5/10 overall. The only downside? The price -- $38 for one dish feels a bit steep these days. Still, with how good it tasted and how quickly it was prepared, I'd definitely return. Just wish things weren't so expensive -- both for consumers and for restaurant owners trying to keep up.

    I have been coming here for close to 30 years! This is my favorite pizzeria. The slices have just the right amount of char from the wood fire to give a crispy crust. Their dough is on point and they use good tomatoes. I tried a zucchini square today and it was delicious. A thicker crust, not quite Sicilian thick, but thicker than your average Grandma. Light, airy and crispy and perfectly garlicky thin slices of zucchini!

    I seriously love this place! It feels like forever ago I lived in the area. I'm giving it a 4 star for two reasons well 3. The salad was sad.Lettuce, cucumber, and a few shavings of carrot. No onions or olives huge pieces of iceberg lettuce nothing much. The salad dressing just tasted like oil not lemon . Pizza was amazing half mushroom, they use really good mushrooms!! Coffee was great and my father in-law enjoyed his huge sandwich on a semolina with chicken, arugula, mozzarella and ham. My pre birthday apple cake was supposed to be warm but was cold so was my father in-laws and husbands. Well maybe next time it'll be what I remembered again. Service was ok. It's extremely clean and nice for a Italian pizza place in Brooklyn. The Olive's in the picture I asked for.

    The food is delicious here and fresh. I came with my husband and daughter. Our daughter loved the bread and so did we! We asked for more. We had the fried calamari as an appetizer. I had the bruschetta Milanese as my meal and my husband had a pizza. Everything was absolutely delicious. I didn't think I would finish my meal but I finished all of it! The food came out pretty quickly. It is a little pricey but you're paying for good quality food. I've definitely received better service, especially for it not being crowded on a cold night. We asked for our waters to be refilled a couple of times. Our waitress didn't seem to be happy to be working. We still gave her an 18% tip but a smile goes a long way.

    My neighbor and I came here for a quick lunch. We decided to share a Margherita pizza ($16) and chicken parm ($25). I thought the pizza was tasty and delicious but, it tasted like it need a bit more seasoning. The chicken parm was tasty but, even better when I added extra cheese. I felt like the sauce used on both the parm and pizza to be a bit bland and need a bit more spices/kick. The staff here was terrible. They charged for things that we never ordered and rarely checked in on us. I felt that they looked at us and made a snap judgment and decided that they could treat us like crap. I noticed they didn't bring us any bread for our pasta like other tables got. I had to follow up for our drinks we did order. Isn't it standard to bring water for each table when a guest sits down? We had to flag someone to get water when our ordered beverages didn't show up. Personally, I thought the food was tasty but, the quality and taste doesn't match the prices. I mean $25 for a plate of chicken parm that was mediocre at best plus sub-par service, it's an easy pass.

Reservations were tough (stand in line and then they'll tell you what time to come back) and we got an 830 res. Still one of my favorite pizzas!

    Standard-Issue Nostalgia with a Side of Rushed Hospitality…read more If you enjoy paying in time rather than digital convenience, Lucali's reservation process is a masterclass in performative nostalgia. Arriving at 2 PM to stand in a line for two hours just to get on a list for a 7 PM seating doesn't make the place feel exclusive, it makes it feel like a punishment. But hey, we got a table, so the sacrifice was supposed to be worth it. It wasn't. Lucali is BYOB, which is fine in theory. My party brought two bottles of prosecco, fully prepared for a cozy, rustic evening. The server kindly offered to pop the first bottle, then brought out our glassware: heavy, standard water glasses, fresh out of the commercial dishwasher and literally piping hot. There is a special kind of absurdity in pouring crisp, ice-cold prosecco into a glass that feels like it was just pulled from the depths of hell. To top it off, nobody offered to keep our second bottle chilled. Minor detail, sure, but for a place with this level of cult status, the low-effort service immediately set the tone. To give credit where it's due, the ambiance is legitimately cool. It's dimly lit, atmospheric, and feels like step-back-in-time Brooklyn kitchen. Watching the pizza makers roll out dough using empty wine bottles before shoving them into the roaring brick oven gives off that warm, "Nonna's kitchen" charm. You want to love it. Then the food arrives, and the illusion shatters. Our server gave us the bare minimum rundown: "We have pizza, calzones, and tonight's special pasta." Zero detail, zero enthusiasm. We ordered the pizza and the calzone. The pizza was... fine. Completely fine. But calling this the best pizza in New York feels like collective mass delusion. If you've been to L'Industrie or Mama's Too, Lucali isn't even in the same stratosphere. Then came the calzone, which was allegedly stuffed with five cheeses. The server proudly named four, withholding the fifth as a "secret ingredient." A mystery cheese angle might be fun if the calzone blew your mind, but by the time I took a bite, the gimmick just felt tired. It was a perfectly average calzone wrapped in high-end gatekeeping. The grand finale, however, was the absolute kicker. Just under an hour into our meal, after overhearing the hostess realize she'd botched the table rotation, our server came over with an update: they had overbooked and needed our table. Her gracious solution? "You're welcome to pour the rest of your prosecco into your glasses and finish it outside!" The remaining, warm, prosecco that is... Let's recap the math: two hours waiting on a sidewalk at 2 PM, five hours of waiting for the reservation time, warm glasses for cold bubbles, middle-of-the-road pizza, and a boot out the door in under sixty minutes because they messed up their own seating chart. Disgraceful hospitality masked as old-school Brooklyn charm. If you love mediocre food, lukewarm prosecco in burning hot glassware, and being rushed out to the curb, Lucali is waiting for you. As for me, I won't be back.

Unfortunately, our experience was extremely disappointing. We ordered a glass of wine, a beer, an arugula salad, and our main food order. Everything started out fine, and the salad came without a problem. But then we waited. And waited. About 30 minutes after we had ordered, I asked our waiter where our food was. He apologized and admitted that he had forgotten to put the order in. By that point, we had already watched other tables receive their food, including people who had arrived well after us. We continued waiting, and after roughly 40 minutes or more, our food still had not arrived. At that point, the dining experience was already ruined and we decided to leave. Ironically, just as we were getting ready to go, the food finally started coming out. I told them we no longer wanted it. The waiter did apologize again and offered us a pizza to take with us, which I assume was complimentary, but by then we were simply ready to leave. Even paying the bill became unnecessarily drawn out. We were charged the full amount for the salad, beer, and wine. I sat with a $50 bill ready to pay, was handed the check, and then ended up standing around for another five minutes waiting for someone to actually take the money. There was no apology from the person handling the payment. I understand that mistakes happen, and I appreciated that our waiter admitted he had forgotten to place the order. But when a restaurant makes that kind of mistake, the recovery matters. After waiting that long, watching later-arriving customers get served, and then having difficulty simply paying and leaving, an apology and a pizza at the very end didn't really fix the experience. Unfortunately, based on this visit, I can't say the service lived up to the restaurant's reputation.

    Brooklyn DOP is a prime example of what happens when a pandemic lockdown, a dough obsession, and an…read moreinability to sit still all collide. We visited as a stop on Scott's Pizza Bus Tour, which meant we were actively evaluating it against some of the best pizza in the city. Evaluating pizza on a tour is tricky because excellence becomes relative when you are eating multiple high-end pies in a single afternoon. According to Scott, Brooklyn DOP began in founder Thomas Ardito's apartment during the 2020 lockdowns. With his primary work on pause, he started baking pizza and selling pies through Instagram to pay his rent. People kept ordering. His friend Jason D'Amelio joined the effort, and what started as an apartment project turned into pop-ups and eventually a brick-and-mortar shop on 5th Avenue in Park Slope. That is a considerably more compelling origin story than a corporate franchise business plan. The setup in Park Slope includes a quiet back courtyard, which offered a comfortable spot for our group to sit, eat, and recover between stops. It feels relaxed and distinctly Brooklyn without trying too hard to remind you where you are. The pizza itself is very good. The crust strikes a proper balance between a crisp bottom and a chewy interior. The toppings are handled with care, from the crushed tomatoes to the fresh mozzarella. This is dough crafted by people who take fermentation seriously rather than relying on pre-packaged shortcuts. On its own merits, the pizza is a solid 4.5 stars. Unfortunately for Brooklyn DOP, it was competing on a tour against places operating on another plane. It is an excellent pie, but it was not the single slice that caused the entire tour to fall silent in collective awe. Still, that is an aggressive standard to hold against any local shop. Brooklyn DOP offers a great courtyard, a serious approach to dough, and a standout product. Landing just shy of five stars says far more about the sheer volume of elite pizza we ate that day than it does about the shop itself. Four stars. And if you are not spending the afternoon riding around New York with Scott Wiener eating pizza at some of the finest pizza joints the 5 boroughs have to offer, you can probably bump that half-star back up.
