Went there on a Saturday night with 3 friends and the 40 minutes wait was really worth it ! The best pizza in my opinion was actually the simplest one : the margarita with buffala mozzarella. Great dinner, friendly staff, awesome pizzas ! I'll definitely go again !

I ate in this adorable little place with a girlfriend while visiting NYC in January. It is tiny, with crowded seating and a humming, busy, fun atmosphere. We split meatballs and pizza (huge list of choices!) and loved it. Delicious, well-priced. Only problem was very short beer list.

Having eaten pizza at Lombardis, Grimaldis, Numero8, Luzzo, Nicoletta and many other great NYC pizzerias,my wife and I were invited to Brooklyn by our in-laws. Please look at the 2013 zagats. If you believe it everything in Brooklyn is better than Manhattan. Sorry guys with few exeptions like Peter Luger, Bamontes,Gargiulos and Scottoditto that is not the case. I will... More

We stopped into this famous pizza shop on recommendation of a local. The inside is small/quaint and reminded me of Italy. They had quite a variety of pizza's to choose from, we decided on the Al Roker pizza and the Bianca pizza. The A.R. was definitely our favorite, the carmelized onions and meat are what won me over. The bianca... More

Fornino's is above and beyond any other pizza delivery option in Williamsburg. No greasy cheese covering cardboard crust here, just Neopolitan deliciousness delivered hot and fresh every time - even in winter. The delivery guy practically defies the laws of physics. The Spinach is my favorite, and I can't even walk by the restaurant on my way home without craving... More

Definitely some great fire roasty pizza. Been here twice and havent been disappointed. One of my favs is the margherita doc. Also love the trendy industrial vibe inside. Sangria is deelish.

This isn't an old school NYC pizza place, but it's great nontheless. Very reasonable (price), in the heart of Williamsburg (Bedford Avenue is the place to wander), great pizza, very friendly service. What more could you ask... I just can't fault this place.

This is where we chose to have our last supper before I had to leave this wonderful little bubble called Williamsburg. I thought I would be sad until my sons walked me into this perfect setting. It was everything I hoped it would be. Great wine, beautiful lighting, aesthetically relaxing and charming, great service, and I suppose I should mention... More

We ate on a Friday night with a large party. The food was traditional, delicious Italian food. This is our favorite restaurant in Brooklyn.
