The most perfect pizza, sadly relocated to San Fran. Fascistically explained in its pamphlet: fresh ingredients from Naples every week, and a 48-hour, 2000-year-old Neapolitan dough-raising technique.
These guys took Una Pizza's location and wood-burning oven. Less authentic and hardcore than UPN, with a more diverse menu. But more affordable, and still the best Neapolitan-style pie in NYC.
One of the most deservedly famous Bk pizzerias. Lines get long with good reason. Take a date for an evening walk across the Brooklyn Bridge, then swing under the far end for a pie & a bottle of wine.
John's has the best traditional, thin-crust, New York-style pie. And this is their best location to experience - a huge, beautiful, sweeping former cathedral, complete with stained-glass windows.
Di Fara is a quaint little slice of old-timey Brooklyn, with lines around the block. Their slice has a unique flavor that's hard to describe, and sets it apart even if it's not your favorite. Try it.
One of the most unique. A big, thick, heavy brick of a slice you could honestly kill a man with. Topped with artichoke.PS - The clam slice is gross. If you want a clam pie, go to New Haven, CT.
Not the first Famous Ray's but the best. It's the classic big, gooey, cheesy American Ninja-Turtles slice. But for me, I prefer the more unique or Italian-style pies on the rest of my Best Pizza list.
At $1 a slice or $2.75 for two and a can soda, this is no subtle artisanal masterpiece. But it's damn good pizza for a damn good price and that makes it a staple stop for every college student in NYC.
