Lucali

The people waiting in long lines at Lucali are enough to prove that it's the best pizzeria in nyc. Serving the best thin-crust Pizza since 2006. However, serving Pizza was never an industry that the founder Mark Luciano aspired to. Ever since the opening of Lucali, he has been credited as the best pizza creator in Brooklyn.

Lucali is not like any other typical pizza corner. It is a famous date night spot and does not take reservations. The only way to get into this spot is to wait in long lines. The restaurant opens at 5 and has the people waiting in line since 4. So if you want to try the most famous Brooklyn pizza, you've got to put in the extra effort.

Di Fara

One of the most famous spots for Pizza that you can find in Brooklyn, Di Fara, was given a 9.4/10 rating by Barstool's Dave Portnoy. If you are looking for an authentic pizza taste, don't waste your time on anything else; come straight to Di Fara. This is the perfect place to get the best Pizza in the city, with high-quality fresh ingredients and pizzas with more than just sauce and cheese.

The classic Pizza, which includes pepper, onion, mushroom and sausage and the chaos pizza with garlic, onion, tomatoes, meatballs and sausage, are the must-try here. Always the first recommendation by food critics, this place is a must-try.

Juliana's

In the late '90s, Patsy Grimaldi decided to sell Grimaldi's and retire. However, in 2012 Grimaldi came out of retirement and, right next to Grimaldi's, opened up a new pizzeria- Juliana's. Like Grimaldi's, Juliana's is also in the same beautiful location, which is also a plus point for its long following.

Both pizzerias may have the same founder, but they certainly have their specialities and differences. Juliana's is much more constricted in its menu in classic pizzas, i.e., margarita, marina and white; you get to choose only two toppings, and there are no substitutes for a specialty pizza. So you have to choose wisely.

Juliana's also doesn't take reservations and has a long line of people waiting outside. So plan your visit wisely.

Since both these pizzerias are famous and started by the same man, it is only logical to try both these spots.

Joe's Pizza

Are you craving Pizza late at night? Don't worry; Joe's got your back. Joe's Pizza is the ultimate pizza center for you, open till 3 a.m. on weekdays and 5 a.m. on weekends. Customer-friendly and obsequious, this spot brings you the best pizza taste on the streets of Brooklyn.

Originally born in Greenwich Village in Manhattan, its popularity also brought it here to the Williamsburg location. Popular for being a late-night pizza spot, some famous personalities like Ben Affleck and Kevin Bacon consider Joe's a choice for the last meal. Something simple to fill all your cravings, try Joe's Pizza to get the finest pizza experience.

Speedy Romeo

Speedy Romeo has some of the best Pizza in Brooklyn. A mouth-watering and intriguing way of preparing the menu is what makes speedy romeo what it is. Unlike the other pizza joints, it is a classy and upscale spot where you can enjoy an amazing selection of entrees, salads, and all the delicious items on the menu. But the Pizza is what we're here for.

While the food is amazing, speedy Romeo has an interesting backstory. This place was originally an auto body shop and now is transformed into a restaurant.

The menu here has some insane combinations and variety, which makes the taste of Paulie Gee something to die for. It has something for everyone, from a full vegan and vegetarian pizza menu to a secret pizza menu. The pizzas are prepared with wood fire and topped with unique toppings.
