Pizza that rivals roberta's. I will fare to say it's even better & there are 2x as many topping combinations. Paulie Gee will stop by your table personally and check if you're happy.

Pulled pork of hellboy pizza, this cozy spot will make you rethink top 3 pizza places in Brooklyn. Sit at the bar if you can!

Paulie has one of the best pizzas in New York. Try the Hellboy pizza, with spicy honey on it. But get there early and prepare yourself to wait for a while.

Paulie Gee must be the nicest owner ever. Delicious, creative pies, and a great story behind the whole operation. If you're a veeg, order the Vegan Greenpointer & add house-made vegan sausage. TDF!

Try the Cherry Blossom (with prosciutto, dried Bing cherries and orange blossom honey) or the Rooftop Red (with marinated baby kale and Aleppo chili oil). Read more

Still prefer Roberta's, but Paulie Gee's has vegan cheese pizzas and still makes one of the best Pizzas in NYC. Good design and staff. Get there early or make a reservation.

Hate the G train? Take the east river ferry! Super close to the docks. Once you get here, as everyone says the Hellboy pizza cannot be skipped - the honey makes the sauce taste like candy.

NYC's best pizza. If you need some fuel to keep you going all night long, come here. Don't leave without trying the Cherry Jones and Hellboy - the perfect order.
James FiltzOctober 7, 2012
Get there at least 15 mins prior to opening if we want to get in the first seating. Anything that combines sweet and savory is amazing. Don't be afraid of the hellboy it's not THAT spicy.
Bryant BalatbatApril 24, 2017
Excellent, authentic Neapolitan style pizza to go with excellent service. Consider coming in early for dinner to beat the crowd.

Best pizza in NYC hands down. Not just for the wonderful pizza, but for the awesome people that work here. Paulie always stops by the table to check in on his customers!
AngelaJune 2, 2013
Freaking fantastic! Get the Hellboy!! Also, ask to be seated at the booth next to the bar if you get there early. The super nice bartender is your waiter so you'll get snappy refills.
Lee HoffmanMarch 18, 2017
The hellboy is one of the best pizzas I've ever had. The backdoor brisket is good. The Regina is ok.

1) Get something with the phenomenal hot honey -- the Hellboy is ideal. 2) Chat with the owner when he comes around. 3) Admire the quirky, intriguing space. 4) Scheme about how soon you can come back.

Got lucky when I asked for a pizzeria reco while at Brouwerij Lane - they said go here. I've been to hundreds of pizza joints and this is one of the best. TONS of choice and great quality.

Owner Paul Giannone has a gift for great topping combos. My favorites are the Anise & Anephew and the Hellboy (hot soppressata & spicy honey). For brunch, the Monte Cristo is absolutely craveworthy. Read more

I dream of a day it's easier to get here from manhattan but then again if I could eat the hellboy every day I'd look like hell, boy. That spicy honey though...

Best Artisan Pizza... You have to try the Hell Boy.. Ask the server for Hot Oil n drizzle it over your pizza before you eat it. Great selection of Vegan pizzas too.
Time Out New YorkOctober 5, 2011
Try the fiery Hellboy: chili pepper-infused honey drizzled over a blistered pie w/ sopressata picante, creamy fior di latte & grated Parmigiano-Reggiano. It’s one of our #100best dishes & drinks 2011. Read more

If you end up sitting in the front, be sure to check out the oven area in the back where all the magic happens.
Lizette ChristoffOctober 13, 2013
The wait for a table was long, but so worth it - best pizza I've had in my life. We had, and would highly recommend, the Hellboy and Anise & Anephew.
Eric AbergelAugust 27, 2012
Went on a Sunday night when they were slammed and owner Paulie G himself was handing out free pizza slices to all those waiting. He is a real class act! (oh and the pizza is top notch!!)
Margot MazurNovember 11, 2014
They have an entire vegan pizza menu! Pizzas are absolutely wonderful and affordable for a night out. Come early bc it gets packed quickly.
Jessica M.August 14, 2014
LOVE the pizza and the vibe. Menu changes, so try something new and delicious (likely with honey) while Paulie Gee goes table to table.
Caroline ScottNovember 24, 2012
Don't even try to fool yourself into thinking you can take half home. Cherry jones and the Hellboy were amazing - although everything on the menu sounded inventive and delicious.
TiffanyMarch 14, 2016
Cozy restaurant that's perfect for a date night or dinner w family! Must try the hellboy.
vegansaurusDecember 28, 2013
Amazing amazing super-fantastic vegan pizza menu. Homemade vegan sausage and ricotta. And Paulie Gee will come by your table to say hi--he's the man!
IrmaZandl ZandlSlantSeptember 6, 2015
LOVE it. Would totally come back despite lines. We ate at the bar. Greenpointer is delicious. Also met paulie.

You really can’t go wrong with any pizza on the menu, but the cherry jones and hellboy are particularly crowd pleasing 👌🏼
Jorge SierraNovember 19, 2012
Thought it was awesome that Paulie was walking around greeting everyone making sure they were enjoying the food. Hell boy and cherry jones were both amazing...oh and Hot Honey?YES JUST DO IT
Corley StoneJanuary 12, 2016
UNREAL pizza! The Hellboy is delish and is topped with Mikes Hot Honey ☺️. Get here early though, because it's always packed!
Paul TepperApril 28, 2011
They have a lot of vegan options, including Daiya cheese and housemade vegan sausage. I eat cheese (fior di latte) but the vegan sausage was great, added it to my Regina pie (margarita).
Ashley SpechtJanuary 30, 2018
Decent pizza-- not the best I've had in my life. The pizzas are pretty small for costing almost $20 each and leaving still slightly hungry. I'll stick to the classic NY $1 slice and be full. 👍🏻
Rachael McCarthyMarch 18, 2017
The pizza is as good as everyone says. Come on a weeknight for less of a wait. Every pizza I've tried has been awesome!
Matt BarberSeptember 19, 2016
Excellent stone fired pizza. Brisket BBQ is sweet and unusual but tasty.
Youngna ParkDecember 3, 2012
The Hellified Porkpie White: fior di latte, spicy soppressata, sweet fennel sausage, garlic, basil, red onions and most importantly: Mike's hot honey, is a thing of utter beauty.
Selim VarolMarch 1, 2015
Excellent Spot with the right oven and good service. Pizza is at least 🌟🌟🌟🌟
Sean BalkanApril 9, 2018
Hellboy. Greenpointer. Can’t go wrong with anything. Delicious pizza.

Greenpoint's Roberta's (but better!). There will be a wait of 45 minutes+ though and the lobby will be crowded so after you put in your name, head up the block for a drink at Lulu's or Brouwerij Lane.

Tip revision: Skip the Hellboy. The sopressata has gone a little the way of dead animal butt. Get the Garden of Eden salad, Regina and Monte Cristo pizzas, and an Ommegang. Boom.

Order some hot honey on the side to dip your crust. Only muggles leave their crusts on their plate.

The Hellboy at Paulie Gee's is a must-order; it features spicy sopressata, fresh mozzarella, Parmigiano-Reggiano, and chile- and vinegar-spiked honey. Read more
Matt BarberSeptember 19, 2016
Dessert pizza is a must try. Marmalade and cream, what's not to love there
Eric WagnerFebruary 24, 2012
The Anise and Anephew is to die for. The In Ricotta Da Vita is like a farm, in your mouth! And Paulie Gee is seriously the nicest guy ever. I love this place.
Elvin G. MarmolSeptember 8, 2017
Try the Hellboy or go with a small group and pick several options to share. There are so many good ones!
David BanNovember 21, 2012
If you have room for dessert, the ice cream w/ Mike's Hot Honey is a surprise winner.
VegNews MagazineOctober 30, 2012
Check out Paulie Gee’s special vegan menu, which has inventive options like the Vegan Grapeful Dead, topped with baby spinach, olive oil, nutritional yeast, and pickled grapes.
Brian MasefieldMay 22, 2015
Though I take issue with the ratio of crust (too much) to pizza toppings (not enough), it's quite good. Fun, lively space - expect to wait.

The Hellboy is amazing, but the Monte Cristo is my favorite. Get it. Also: the new Foursquare is terrible, and so is Swarm.
Pratheeksha KSApril 1, 2019
Nothing like the owner checking on you and making sure everything's ok. Old school Brooklyn. Good vegetarian options
