Our Top Pick
Giuseppina's Brick Over Pizza
Serious brick-oven pies with a crust-first philosophy in a cozy, low-lit room.
Notable Picks
Giuseppina’s is a South Slope destination for brick-oven pies that lean heavily on long-fermented dough, blistered crusts, and a basil-heavy plain pie served in a dim, candlelit room. The menu is short, focused, and built for lingering over a couple of pies and a bottle of wine rather than a quick grab-and-go slice.
Must-Try Dishes:
Plain brick-oven pie with basil, White pie with ricotta and garlic, Everything pie loaded with seasonal toppings
What makes it special: Serious brick-oven pies with a crust-first philosophy in a cozy, low-lit room.
