Notable Picks

8.6
A wine-forward, sourdough-pizza room where the crust and restraint do the heavy lifting—clean toppings, smart balance, and a dining room that feels more like a neighborhood wine bar than a slice shop. It’s at its best when you commit to a couple pies and one or two small plates, then let the bottle carry the rest of the night.
Must-Try Dishes:
Sourdough wood-fired pizza, Margherita-style pie, Mozzarella plate
What makes it special: Sourdough-driven pies and a wine-bar cadence in a Bushwick room.

Instagram Worthy Wonders
A wood-fired, Neapolitan-leaning pizza room with a lively, modern space that feels built for groups and lingering. The strongest move is to treat it like a tight share-menu: one classic pie, one specialty pie, and one salad or starter so the table stays balanced.
Must-Try Dishes:
Margherita pizza, Pepperoni pizza, Caesar salad
What makes it special: Wood-fired pizza in a buzzy space that’s built for sharing.
8
A polished, sit-down pizza spot where the strength is in disciplined ordering and well-built pies rather than an endless checklist of extras. Go in with a plan—one pie lane, one small plate, and one dessert or digestif—so it feels like dinner, not just slices.
Must-Try Dishes:
Margherita pizza, Agnolotti, Tiramisu
What makes it special: Sit-down pizza energy with a more restaurant-style pace and polish.
