Tuscan-born Massimo Laveglia opened this slice shop in 2017. Long-fermented dough bakes into a thin, crisp, lightly charred slice under imported Italian toppings, and the burrata slice is the one people line up for. In 2026, 50 Top Pizza named it the best slice shop in the US.

What people like: Ultra-thin, crisp crust · top-quality toppings, especially the burrata · consistent slice to slice Watch out for: Long lines at peak times; go early or off-peak

Detroit-style square pies with an airy crumb, crisp caramelized-cheese edges and cupped pepperoni, served since 2021 in a wood-paneled room with a '90s-basement feel and video games. The wings and the double-stuffed cheesy bread are worth adding.

What people like: Crispy, caramelized cheese edges · light, airy dough · fun retro room

The industrial, punk-spirited pizzeria on the Bushwick border that helped put Brooklyn pizza on the national map, and home of the Bee Sting, the hot-honey pie. Expect well-charred wood-fired pies, rotating seasonal specials and pastas, plus outdoor space. It's a Michelin Bib Gourmand pick.

What people like: Well-charred wood-fired crust · buzzy room and outdoor space Watch out for: Long waits · some find it good rather than great

Pizzaiolo Frank Pinello opened this tiny shop in 2010 with backing from the Roberta's crew. Slices come out of an old wood-fired oven with a smoky char, under walls covered in customers' doodled paper plates. Get the pepperoni; note the grandma square's sauce has anchovy in it.

What people like: Hot, crisp slices with a smoky char · nostalgic, no-frills room Watch out for: Very few seats and waits at busy times
