Best Pizza in Brooklyn
Brooklyn's ten best pizzerias for 2026, ranked by current editorial consensus — verified open, from L'Industrie's burrata slice to Di Fara's coal-oven legend.
- 01
L'Industrie Pizzeria
Williamsburg · 254 South 2nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211A stand-up counter slice shop out of Williamsburg that built a genuine cult following on nothing but obsessive dough work and Italian imports.
The Margherita with fresh burrata dropped on top after baking is the slice that launched a thousand Instagram lines, and it still tastes better than the hype suggests.
Order Margherita slice with burrata
Go right when they open or right before close — the line wraps the corner by lunchtime and the shop is standing-room only.
- 02
Lucali
Carroll Gardens · 575 Henry Street, Brooklyn, NY 11231A candlelit former candy store turned whole-pie-only pizzeria where the wait is as legendary as the crust.
No slices, no delivery, no reservations — Lucali makes you earn the pie, and the char-blistered crust under a blanket of fresh mozzarella is why people still queue for two hours.
Order Classic cheese pie, extra basil
Put your name in and walk the neighborhood — arriving right at opening only gets you to the middle of a list that fills within minutes.
- 03
L&B Spumoni Gardens
Gravesend · 2725 86th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11223An 80-plus-year-old backyard-garden institution built around a Sicilian square slice and a cup of spumoni that Brooklynites still treat as a whole afternoon out, not a quick bite.
