Fantastic spot with quick bites. Very reasonable prices and good ambiance for an order at the counter type of place. Nice lighting and seems to have 2 floors and outdoors seating. The pizza comes out quick and perfectly charred like Neapolitan pizza should be. The name is funny and they have actually a "Mexican" style Neapolitan pizza which sounded risky but turned out to the best pie! Fantastic place, would definitely be revisiting. Service is quick read more

Overall: a classic Neapolitan style pizza very close if you went to Italy! Food: overall a little pricey for a personal pie but for the similarity to a real authentic Neapolitan slice there are few in brooklyn that can compare! Inside: service was fast and great, music and lively at night, ofc ur in brooklyn somethings always happening. read more

I tried the Salsa and Vegetariana pizzas. The pizza is fine - pretty doughy and somewhat limited flavor development on the crust. The Tuesday deal is great for two people - a second pizza of any kind for an extra $5 if you order in store or over the phone. These two came out to about $31 after taxes. Decent option if you're in the neighborhood, but not one to go out of your way for. read more

i've been here twice and can confidently say that this is easily one of my favorite pizza places in all of nyc. while i typically prefer a stiff new york style pizza, salsa makes an EXCELLENT neapolitan style pizza. the crust is so soft and pillowy and still full of flavor -- this is important to note because i usually discard the crust, but i eat it all here!!!! i've tried the margarita, pepperoni, la ramirez, and la salsa, with the last 2 being my faves! the sauces on la salsa...chefs kiss! i think about it all the time and wish they delivered to my neighborhood so i could have it more often!! it's a very casual vibe where you grab your own water, utensils, etc. employees were kind and were happy to see us enjoying our meal. looking forward my next visit. read more

This such a great quaint summer spot. They have a few seating options outside which I'd highly recommend grabbing a few pizzas and some beer or wine. The pizza was baked to perfection and Neapolitan style. My favorite was the margaherita pizza but the cacio e Pepe with the salsa verde was also great. We were able to finish 3 pizzas between 4 people since the pizzas weren't too heavy. Definitely would come back! read more

Well, kind of a buzz kill to be ripped off by a place you've been wanting to try. They posted on their Instagram about a Cinco de Mayo Calzone as part of their Tuesday special, buy one, get one for $5. Great, can't wait to try this. My husband and I ordered two to go, and he swiped his card before I caught the $60 charge. I'm trying to do the math here. If the second one is $5, what is the first one, $50? No clue how this math is mathing, so I ask. The guy at the register tells me calzones aren't included, that the special refers to pies. Okay, except nothing on their Instagram says or implies that. I pull out the actual Instagram post from that same day, advertising this special, and he pulls someone from the kitchen who backs him up. Again, not what their Instagram implies at all, and the only reason I walked in for the first time. After going back and forth with the staff, I finally give up and just say let me know when it's ready, since we already paid $60 for two calzones. And honestly, even setting the special aside, in what world is a calzone $30? We took the food home. It had already lost all appeal after feeling ripped off, but we ate it anyway. I mean, we spent $60 on this, might as well try to enjoy it. Unfortunately. As a calzone, it wasn't great. It was basically a pizza folded in half. And as a pizza, also not great. The dough was doughing, and not in a good way, way too soft, no crispness whatsoever. It frankly sucked. If you're going to rip someone off, the least you could do is make the food taste bomb. Oh well. read more

Came on a Tuesday night where their current special is buy one pizza, get one for $5. For $30 still seems a wee bit pricey, but hey better than $50. At any rate, the pizzas were great fresh out of the oven. Dough super chewy. Beautiful blistering. Toppings were top notch quality. We got the namesake salsa pizza (spicy) and funghi. Salsa wasn't very spicy at all, but still super flavorful. My wife liked this one more. I preferred the funghi. The saltiness from the prosciutto with the umami of the mushrooms just made for a flavor bomb with each bite. I will say it got less enjoyable as it cooled down, so definitely don't let it sit around for too long! Either way, a really good pizza though. Probably one of the best neapolitan pizzas I've had. As far as service and ambiance goes, it's a pay at the counter and pick it up when ready situation. Space is pretty casual. Good for a weekday meal to catch up with friends or a laid back date. read more

I'd give this a 3.5 out of 5. The dough was very soft and wood fired pizza is always delicious. The ingredients were fresh and sauce was the perfect tangy flavor. I think I would have liked it a little bit thicker of a slice since the sauce and cheese very much slid off. We got the Salsa & the Hipsteroni - both were good and loved the hot honey with pep. I also thought the basil was a very light and nice touch to the Salsa. Overall great ambiance, quick service and tasty pizza but would still give it a strong 3.5/5- thank you!! read more

Unique pizzeria in Greenpoint serving traditional Neapolitan pies with a side of cultural confusion. It's not quite fusion, but there's randomly a (somewhat bland) cacio e pepe pie with salsa verde and guacamole on the menu. I tend to think they should have embraced the concept more wholeheartedly if that was their intent, which the name arguably hints at. The classic Margherita pizza was definitely the better option of the two we ordered, but the crust did not achieve the ephemeral chewiness that I would think is the goal. read more

This unassuming spot does Neapolitan pizza right. Came here for dinner and ordered the napoletana pizza, ricotta bruschetta, and the pesto pasta. - the pizza (5/5): this was done right. The crust was perfectly cooked, the ingredients were well balanced (they did not skimp on anchovies like many other places), and overall it was a very good pizza. - the pesto pasta (4/5): perfectly cooked, the burrata added the extra umph. Overall a very solid dish. - ricotta bruschetta (4/5): it's hard to go wrong with ricotta and honey. This is more of an appetizer (or possibly a dessert tbh). I thought the bread could have been a bit warmer/bigger but at $6, don't miss this. The space is primarily for take out but there are a few tables nestled upstairs and outside. Would stick to parties less than 4. I saw they have Tuesday specials of buy 1 pizza get one for $5 so looks like I will be returning! read more

I'd rate Salsa Pizzeria three and a half stars. We shared the salami pizza. Dough was chewy with not many visible air pockets. Undercarriage held up and center didn't need to be flipped up. Cornicione was the chewiest part. The pizza baker did a fantastic job of getting a char on the bottom and along the edge. Unfortunately, I didn't get much flavor from the char. Not sure if the was a result of what was used to heat the oven or if the oven was just on the younger side. I feel the char would have been phenomenal under other circumstances, so big kudos to the baker. Toppings wise, the salami stood out the most. Wasn't getting much from the sauce, cheese, or basil. There was one single occupancy restroom. Both indoor and outdoor seating. On the casual side with a couple families dining in. We had a nice experience, but I think Salsa Pizzeria is in a tough spot with some incredible competition nearby. read more

Came here on a break in between some Muay Thai fights up the street. We had a pretty large group and wanted to dine in so they put us upstairs on the take out side. They seemed pretty busy and we had a group of six people so it took a while (understandable). The pizza flavors were delicious I got the funghi but the dough/crust itself needed way more time in the oven, it was soft and floppy and without folding it and the support of my hand all the toppings would've all fallen off. Pizza was a little pricey but I know it's nyc/brooklyn so that's whatever, convenient location, and flavors are there..would probably eat again out of convenience but ask them to cook it a little longer. read more

Very good pizza margherita in Greenpoint! Everything was mostly spot on, the dough and sauce were great. Cheese was decent. It was regular mozz. I definitely prefer buffalo mozz over regular, so next time may try the "Regina" pie, which is their classic margherita with buffalo mozz. Wish I'd known about it before! The appetizer of mushroom bruschetta took this from 5 to 4 stars for me. It was not too flavorful and the mushrooms had a "canned mushroom" consistency iykyk...

I have wanted to try Salsa for a while and finally made that happen last Saturday. I placed an online order at 7pm for a pizza and a salad. I received a notice that said my order would be ready at 7:20pm. Great. I walked over and arrived at about 7:22pm. They were busy, so I told the hostess/server that I was there for a pick-up. She asked my name, I told her and she said something to the guys making the orders. Since she didn't say anything after that, I figured it wasn't ready and waited in front of the restaurant. Ten minutes passed and no word or communication from the woman who I spoke to. Twenty minutes passed and the same thing. Thirty minutes passed and still no communication. I'm still waiting in front of the restaurant watching the server I spoke to walk by me multiple times without saying a word. As I watch people who arrived after me and order well after me, get seated and served, I walked up to the woman and asked how much longer it would be since I had waited for 40 minutes and had placed the order an hour ago. She tried to tell me that she called my name a few times. I responded that she never called my name because I have been standing in front of the restaurant the entire time. She then tried to tell me that one of the guys must have called my name. Again, no because I have been standing in front of the restaurant for the entire 40 minutes. Then she hands me my food and tells me that it hasn't been ready long (pizza is cold and salad is warm). That's the third time she has lied to me in a matter of a couple of minutes. I don't care if the pizza was the greatest I've ever had (it wasn't), I will never again support this business based on what went down. There's no reason for this individual to lie to me other than to attempt to cover her mistake. If she would have at least apologized for the delay and no communication, I would have given this place another shot. read more

This place is easily one of my favorite neapolitan pizza I have had. Their pasta is fantastic too. Ingredients taste fresh, their dough is super soft, and the sauce is incredibly flavorful. You can't go wrong with any of their pizzas. I also love their pasta! The Ragu and orecchiette is delicious. Highly recommend checking this place out. Also, UberEats for the last like 3 months has been doing a BOGO of their neopolitan pizza best sellers, so you can get 2 pizzas for $25, which is crazy value (their offer it for their margherita, histeroni, and formaggi).

I ate these delicious pies on one of their few outdoor tables without knowing this was a premier Neapolitan pizza place that would make it onto many "best of 2021" lists. In fact I knew nothing about this spot with its little takeout window on this quiet residential block when I visited, only that I wanted a quick bite and this spot was right in front of me. The food came out really quickly and I was immediately impressed by the charred crusts, deliciously tangy sauce, and fresh toppings on each pie. It reminded me of the Neapolitan pies I've enjoyed in Italy, pies NY pizza hasn't quite lived up to. I started with an order of the potato croquettes which were wonderful for their simplicity. They were nicely crisp, full of flavor, and a great way to whet an appetite for the star of the show. The margherita is a must order, and if you're a fan of anchovies, olives, capera, tomato sauce, mozzarella and oregano, the Napoletana pizza will knock your socks off. The other Neapolitan pizza places around the city can't hold a candle to Salsa Pizzeria Napoletana, my new love. read more

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.

Super fun, if slightly tight dining room.

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.

So, eating at this restaurant before the Bruce Springsteen concert, the other night was a thrill. Ate with lifelong friends.

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.

The space is relatively small, with a line inside and outside and a few tables outside. The length of the line and wait time varies based on the time of day and if you go on a weekday vs weekend. Go early if you don't want them to sell out of anything or purposely go a little later if you want one of their lunch sandwiches on focaccia. I have had the tomato and garlic focaccia twice now and each time it has been exceptional. Minor critique, the slices of garlic could be a bit smaller. I also had the shakshuka focaccia which is divine and I would absolutely recommend both. I need to come back to try their sandwiches as well. I am not a sweets person, but everyone I know loves their pastries. Getting someone a gif tcard here makes for a great gift.

Dropped by Radio Bakery on the Tuesday morning after Memorial Day and the lines weren't too crazy…read more I got there in time to grab some breakfast items and baked goods, and then waited at a table outside for the lunch items to get set out around 11AM. I'm usually more of a savory girlie but all the sweet items we tried were great, especially the rhubarb croissant and the earl grey morning bun. I really enjoyed the focaccia sandwiches (smoked salmon and pea/mint/feta were elite) and the artichoke green garlic slice. The flavor of the sesame stirato was excellent but the bread itself was a tad too chewy for the filling we got with it (tuna salad), so that style probably works better with the jambon beurre. Will definitely be on the rotation whenever I'm in the city -- would love to try some of their seasonal/limited edition items one day, though not sure if I have it in me to brave the lines that can form on the weekends, lol! We'll see :)

Service: Service was wonderful! Our waiter was attentive and came back to check on us throughout the meal. There's a button to press when you need service, and our waiter was always quick to come after we pressed it. Ambiance: The restaurant is a good size with tables sectioned off into small "rooms". There are two private rooms downstairs that fit about 6-7 people each. The rooms are adjoining and good for large groups. Seating downstairs is the Japanese-style tables where you put your legs into a pit under the table. Decor and ambiance is very nice, and seating is comfortable. Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant!

We recently visited for a birthday and it was a great experience…read more From the moment we sat down, the staff was incredibly thoughtful--they actually brought out coloring books and markers for my two children right away. It was an absolute lifesaver that kept the girls happily entertained. And the food was absolutely worth savoring. We kicked things off with a round of handrolls--salmon avocado, spicy salmon, and yellowtail--which were perfectly crisp and packed with fresh fish. I went all in on the Salmon Lovers set, and it was an absolute dream. It came with a massive, beautiful spread of salmon sushi, seven thick pieces of melt-in-your-mouth sashimi, a salmon avocado roll, a bright kani salad, and a really savory piece of grilled salmon. We also shared the Ysukiji sushi platter, which featured a gorgeous, high-quality assortment of cuts, while the Smoked Chicken bento box was a huge hit, offering fantastic cooked flavors and generous portions. The room we were in mimicked a traditional Japanese room where everyone had to sit on the floor and put their legs under the table. It was fun for the younger people but it was difficult for the elders to sit down and get back up. Between the incredibly fresh sushi and the warm hospitality that kept the whole family smiling the entire time, this spot easily earned five stars. We can't wait to come back!
