Nicholas G.

So much hype around this place and the story is very cool. The owner is present and works his tail off which I respect. I tried the sicilian and the grandma. I also tried the plain. The grandma has a good crunch to it. The sicilian is thicker and is good but not earth shattering. Plain is a solid straightforward nyc slice. Don't get my wrong it is good pizza but not destination pizza in my opinion. Solid if you are in the area. I hate to say it but its overrated. 4 stars instead of 5.

Bbq chicken pizza
Austin S.

Stopped by because I wanted to quick slice of some New York pie. The name was Luigi so one of 2 things were true: this is real deal authentic, or a gimmicky name to lure folks in. I am still unsure which it is. The pie was pretty good. I got a bbq chicken slice. Unconventional, I know. The bbq sauce was honestly good, it was sweet with a good tang. The fried chicken atop the pie did not taste fresh. It was dry and rubbery. Not a whole lot going on at this little shop. I think it is pretty cool though. It feels like a place to get a solid NY slice, maybe I am in the wrong for getting bbq chicken (lol). It was slightly crispy. The crust was great with the sweetness of the bbq. I really enjoyed that. All in all, a nice hole in the wall if you're looking for that!

Solid pizza, but nothing to go and tell this audience, "HEY EVERYONE, YOU HAVE TO COME HERE!" Because honestly, please do not come out of your way to eat slices from here. Please, I implore you not to. It is not worth it. The slices are not bad, the sauce is nice, but the slice is overly cheesed and that is what ruins it. The crust is also slightly undercooked, needing a little more time in the oven. At least the slices are fairly cheap. The better Luigi's is in Park Slope. This is not the Luigi's you are looking for.

Margherita Pizza slice

A small takeout window with a couple of tables and no chairs placed outside (the line nearby was for tables at a corner cafe). They were not ready with pizza when I arrived just past their opening time, so I wouldn't come in a rush. When I did order a margherita slice, mine arrived piping hot and full of flavor. I think it needed a bit more basil as a margherita, but the texture of the crust and the richness of the cheese certainly left an impression. There are plenty of places in this world where you can't get a decent slice of pizza, I hate to inform the New Yorkers, and this satisfied as a quick diversion for me.

If you're looking for amazing pizza in Brooklyn , Luigi's did NOT disappoint. Living in LA have deprived me of my pizza. So I had to stop by Luigi. It's a storefront but they have a tall bar table outside for you to enjoy your pizza. My friend and I ordered cheese and Margherita pizza. The crunch factor. The cheese. Divine. The pizza was super fresh. And the staff were super duper nice. Especially when my card was acting up, they were very nice and even offered to let me get my pizza for free. But third time was the charm

I missed my turn to go to my regular pizzeria to pick up a slice since I'd skipped lunch today. So while I was waiting at a stop light. I looked at my list and lo and behold. Luigi's was right around the corner. I found parking quickly out front. By the looks of things, this place is a staple in the area. My food was done in less than 5 minutes, and it came out bubbling hot. 350th slice and I was on my way.I took a bite, and it was delicious. It's great to know that I have options in the neighborhood. It's definitely a hidden gem that I didn't know that I needed. I'll see you again soon, Luigi's!

Margherita Pizza, White Pizza Slice with Garlic
Jina P.

Luigi's is probably my favorite pizza by the slice spot in the area. You order by the counter and then pay when the pizza is heated up. There's no proper seating but there are a couple of tables where you can stand and eat. On a busy day, it might be full so it's not ideal. In terms of the slices themselves, they are always pretty crispy but not burnt, and the quality is definitely there. Are they the best pizza in the city? No. But I think the sauce and crust are usually pretty good and it's always reliable when you need a quick bite!

Pesto and Pepperoni Pizza Slice

One of the best slices of pizza I've had. You can taste the freshness in their ingredients. It's thin and toasty. The restaurant and the people feel very homey.

Double parked for pizza!
Michelle S.

Literally pulled over and popped up to the window to order a few slices. It was around $16 for 3 speciality slices and 1 plain, so on the pricier side. The pineapple pizza was so flavorful, the Buffalo was perfectly spicy and all the pizzas were crispy! Delicious slices!

Mozzarella slice
Lindsey O.

Great pizza! I had just come from 3 Luigis intending to try both and do a comparison (although I got different types so I guess it wasn't totally apples to apples). I got the mozzarella cheese pizza and it came out hot, fresh, and tasty. Of the two, this was the better spot. There was very friendly service, even though it's definitely a busy spot - there was quite a line of people waiting. You order up at the counter and there's a couple standing tables nearby but it's really a grab and go spot. I'll go back for sure.

Large cheese pie reasonably priced at $19
Pauline C.

Well this isn't the infamous Luigi's Pizza in Brooklyn ... it's off the beaten path but a good local joint if you're in the neighborhood. The guys here are so sweet. I went on a freezing day ... there is only standing room for 2 inside which was occupied by two local chatterboxes in no rush to leave anytime soon. So prepare to wait in the freezing cold with others. The cheese pizza was cheesy enough and pretty good...just not the best. I asked for well done but there was barely any crunch to it.

Pepperoni Pizza Slice
Amanda D.

All this time I thought I had been eating excellent pizza; That was until I discovered luigis! Omg soo cheesy, so saucy, so fresh so yummy. It's the perfect balance of moistness and crispiness. They have it down to a science!

Luigi's is a great neighborhood spot and one of the best in the area. Their pizzas are super fresh and they make it piping hot just how I like it. My go-to's here are the regular, buffalo chicken, and pepperoni. The customer service is super friendly and welcoming. If you are in the area definitely stop by for a classic New York slice! They take credit card or cash. There is no outdoor seating however there are a couple of stand-up tables for you to enjoy your slice.

I need to take luge lessons. I mean luig lessons.

PRetty solid pizza by the slice. Veggie is okay, Margherita and BBQ Chicken are pretty good! Crust is more like a cracker than doughy.

Di Fara Pizza is a renowned pizzeria located at 1424 Avenue J in the Midwood neighborhood of…read moreBrooklyn, New York City. Situated at the corner of East 15th Street and Avenue J, the establishment was owned and managed by Domenico DeMarco (1936-2022), but now his family continues that legacy. Food critics and bloggers frequently rank it among the top pizzerias in New York City. Di Fara has received numerous accolades, including being named the "Best pizza in New York" by publications such as New York and Serious Eats. The New York Times described the restaurant as "one of the most acclaimed and sought-after pizza shops in New York City." In 2011, Zagat ranked it as the top pizza restaurant in the city, and in 2013, Frommer's called its pizza "the Best Hand-Made Pizza in New York City." Chef Anthony Bourdain also expressed admiration for the restaurant's pizza. I had long hoped to visit Di Fara, so I decided to make a trip from Connecticut. Upon entering, my son and I observed that it was quite busy. There is also a window for ordering, but we chose to go inside to order our food to experience the atmosphere fully. We each ordered a freshly prepared Sicilian slice. Unlike some places, there was no pre-made pizza on display. Each slice is made to order, and it takes about twenty-five minutes to prepare. When we received our pizza, it was notably greasy. The Sicilian slices resembled a full meal, topped with garlic and pepperoni. The garlic was quite prominent and flavorful, adding a nice punch which I liked. The pepperoni was crispy, and the undercarriage had a nice crunch, though it was also quite oily. In my personal opinion, it wasn't the best slice I've ever tasted. However, I understand that when the owner, Dom, was alive, the pizza was considered exceptional by many. I would rate it around 3.5 stars, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to experience pizza from one of New York's most iconic establishments.

Wow. This is a review of Di Fara frozen pizza from Target. More specifically, Di Fara frozen pizza…read morefrom the Target Store in Richfield, Minnesota location. 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.

I think this is what Detroit pizza should taste like (haven't been to MI) but it's one of my favorite types of pizza besides classic NY or Sicilian.

The staff are super friendly and nail that perfect balance between attentive and laid-back, which fits right in with the spot's chill 90s vibe. And do yourself a favor, order the root beer. It comes in a frozen mug and is probably the most uplifting thing you'll ever put in your mouth. Fair warning:,the place gets packed, If you can make a reservation.

Grew up in New York, but have been in Texas for 50 years. With very few exceptions, Italian food in…read moreTexas is not particularly /ut B/ /hen I/ /tic I/, is overpriced, and fails miserably when compared to Northeast Italian food. So, eating at this restaurant before the Bruce Springsteen concert, the other night was a thrill. Ate with lifelong friends. We shared several appetizers, including meatballs, a margarita, pizza, bake clams, and spicy shrimp. All were delicious. I had a seafood pasta with squid ink that was memorable. Lots of seafood and the pasta was fantastic! Nice bottle of wine at a reasonable price. Good service. Frankly, I think the prices were cheaper than what I pay in Austin area, and the food and venue were authentic and much better than in Texas!

Fresh mozzarella, a nicely thin crisped crust, sweet tomato sauce, and fresh basil makes this simple pizza taste great. The fried calamari also impressed. It tasted notably fresh--light, clean, and not overly chewy like pre-frozen versions can sometimes be. While I can't say for certain, it had that just-prepared quality that makes a difference. The Caprese salad was a great way to start the meal, with fresh tomatoes, creamy burrata, and a balsamic drizzle was a nice light start. The atmosphere leans old-school Italian, which adds to the charm and character. Service was fine--nothing remarkable, but no major issues either. That said, my overall rating takes a big hit solely for the restaurants ridiculous tipping policy choices rather than the food itself. The automatic 20% gratuity added to the bill was frustrating. 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.
