Not Good! 11/14/2009

Very small pies, I thought the box was empty. You need two if your a family of three. It didn't look anything like the website. Overpriced It was almost like eating a pice of pita bread with a little sauce/mozzarella Im an Italian born & raised in Cobble Hill, this was disappointing. Im not going to compare it to Grimaldi's because that place is a joke. Waiting on a long line with People that can't pronounce Ricotta, Mozzarella or Manicotti isn't a sign for "good Pizza ahead" Di Fara is the BEST Pizza in NYC & its here in Brooklyn, Sam's on Court St is better then this place & Grimaldi's. It seems like the reviews are fabricated. The one star I gave them is for the Cannoli, they were up there with Ferdinando's on Union St. Think about it, they were going to be a "full line bakery cafe" until they found a brick oven. Does this sound like a Pizzeria that should be "getting better reviews then 40-year-old Pizzeria's" It does explain the good Cannoli. Pros: Red Hook Cons: Price, size. more

Top-line pizza 8/22/2009

Anselmo’s is a very pleasant surprise in the burgeoning Van Brunt eatery strip. A welcome addition! We ordered the “house special” pizza which turned out to be their standard margarita pie with generous pepperoni and mushroom supplement. The brick oven made 14” thin crust special pie was sufficient for 2. It was well prepared but slightly burnt … still a near excellent product. For native Brooklynites, the pizza is reminiscent to the pies at Lento’s Bensonhurst. Saturday night service was better than average - what you can expect in a Brooklyn establishment. This is a BYOB place luckily with a mini-supermarket (for beer) on the other end of a short block and a corner liquor store diagonally across the street. A definite return tripper! Pros: Great pizza in a cozy setting Cons: Poor public transportation access more
