Rob DaBoomFebruary 13, 2012Step 1: get a square. Step 2: eat it Step 3: repeat. many times. Best tasting pizza in the USA.
John SperoAugust 30, 2013A must stop when you're in Bensonhurst!!! The Sicilian slices are awesome!!!
Thank you guys for always making the greatest pizza. This place has been a family tradition for years
If you're driving in and their lot is full, do NOT park on 86th near the restaurant. Unless, of course, you want to be boxed in by double-parkers.
Petunia GreenBeansFebruary 17, 2010A must visit for Pizza lovers- Back in the day the slices were bigger-and somehow better-but STILL the BEST Sicilian (square) Pizza in the US, hands down!
Sit in the restaurant and order the Chefs Special. $55 a person. Awesome
Nate SFebruary 17, 2015Don't bother with the menu- just order a 1/2 sheet of square (feeds 3-4 very hungry people). The pizza is good, but it's all about the experience (outside picnic tables, old school Italian families).
- NJ CBAugust 25, 2010order the chef's table or the owner's going to give you a hug or think about ordering it next time and he'll give you a hug and some random dish free
Christine Giaco NardiJune 26, 2012This place has the best square pizza . People will wait over an hour on line for a pie. That alone will tell you how good it is.
Christopher KimMarch 3, 2012The food here is great! Cansee why there are so many positive reviews! Portions are huge so come hungry!
MUST get a sicilian slice !! ...and a Spumoni ice ! Perfect combo. Absolutely delicious
The BeanMarch 25, 2012There is nothing else in the world like the square slice at this legendary spot...fantastic!!!
AlinaMay 27, 2013I know spumoni is a tri-colored ice cream, but it sounds like a pasta dish and I can't get over that.
Ronald LeeJune 17, 2013People rave about the Spumoni ice cream, but we know the hazelnut is the king!
Jon hoffmanAugust 26, 2014Get a rainbow spumoni. That's a trifecta of vanilla, chocolate and pistachio.
Chisom AsikeMarch 13, 2016Their heros are not that good but acceptable but their slices are amazing, baked ziti is a disgrace
Lina BMarch 14, 2011I live in california and Was told by a friend this place has the best pizza and he was right. Makes me want to go back to ny
if you don't get a square slice you're doing it wrong
Grab a picnic table on a hot summer evening for the full experience. The sicilian is the way to go.
If you're around the area, you MUST get a square !!! They're AMAZING :)
Donald CarbonaraJune 29, 2011Honestly the best pizza I've ever had & I've been to Italy. Spumoni is also AMAZING!
Andy EllwoodAugust 19, 2012Try the Sicilian Pizza - Deep in the heart of Brooklyn, a very impressive pie
the square pizza here is out of this world!!! arguably the best square slice in the world!!!
Natural Balance ManagerSeptember 17, 2011try their chef's table menu...not your typical Italian fare and good for a group of four or more.
Elizabeth MApril 6, 2013I've never been to a restaurant that had treated me so well! What a great place :-)
