It might be a little too expensive, but Motorino is a very solid neighborhood spot for good (fancy) pizza, flowing wine, and late nights. Don't skip the calzone either.- JeffreySeptember 6, 2013Prosciutto di Parma - Killer crust, a chewy slightly charred base, and a slew of inventive toppings like Brussels sprouts with smoked pancetta or cherry stone clams with oreganata butter.
Tasting TableOctober 27, 2014Breakfast pizza ($14) involves runny fried eggs & sweet-salty pancetta that clings to pieces of melted fior di latte mozzarella. It's everything good about the bacon-and-egg combo on a charred crust. Read more
- Adam KubanOctober 9, 2013The $12 lunch special is the best lunch special in all of NYC pizzadom. A salad accompanies your choice of a Margherita, brussels sprout, or soppressata pizza. This is WORLD CLASS PIZZA on the cheap!
Robert Tolar HainingJune 11, 2014awesome pizza. but i went there for lunch, ordered, then the bartender's friend came in a while later & ordered, & got the same pizza i ordered but like 15 minutes before me. fairly obvious/annoying
Same pizza style as robertas but without the 2 hour wait. And amazing meatballs. And super fast delivery. 👌
Marc MayerMarch 31, 2015I don't care who you are. If you don't like the $12 pizza lunch special, you're crazy. Not the cute kind of crazy, the kind of crazy that only a mother could love, after she commits you.
Serious EatsMarch 25, 2014The Brooklyn outpost of one of our favorite Neapolitan pizza joints in the city doesn't disappoint.
Kathryn DSeptember 24, 2016As delicious as other locations but far easier to get a table. Faster to come here than wait for table in East Village.
Samantha HendersonOctober 16, 2014Go for lunch—No wait & a deal well-priced at $12, but still hearty (garden salad and a full pizza, which itself is usually ~$15).
Welcome back. The original was the best. Can't wait for the new original. Everyone who thinks they know pizza or BK needs to come here.
ChelseaAugust 7, 2014Sit by the window & people watch. Food is incredible - absolutely loved the brussel sprout pizza.
ShahSeptember 20, 2014Neapolitan heaven. Just as good as the East Village location and better for groups.
Kelli SolomonSeptember 7, 2014The pizza is what people come here for but some of the apps are actually good. Love the octopus salad.
Gabriel Barth-MaronSeptember 6, 2014A classic, this pizzeria offers some of the best neapolitan pizzas in the city.- Jen ChungSeptember 18, 2013"Check out the Pugliese ($17), a savory pie made with stracciatella, broccolini, spicy sausage, garlic, chili flakes and pecorino."
- Melissa ValenciaNovember 9, 2013It was amazing! Great pizza and arugula salad with pancetta pepato (bacon) FANCY!!
Betka NollAugust 24, 2013stuff friendly too much (sometimes very annoying especially if you plan not to eat fast and talk to your partner) - but food good.
As of Dec 2013, they now have a liquor license (and wine and beer). You should eat here.
bostjan speticDecember 11, 2016nothing was good, the food was just really really bad it was by group consensus the worst meal we ever had in NY, and we were famished and even some of our group are known to not be picky eaters
Not close to being excellent pizza, but the meatballs are superb.
MarisaJanuary 19, 2014Pizza was ok, very doughy. Oversold the eggs & bacon calzone. Better pizza places in the hood.
Julianne CostaJuly 18, 2013The pizza was ok - nothing to write home about. The waitress forgot to take my order and 2 out of the 4 of us received the wrong pizza. They need to sort that stuff out!
NastyaSeptember 23, 2019This place is just meh — neither good nor bad. Pizza is just ok. Nothing special, but is fine for a weekday dinner.
GianniOctober 12, 2013Seems like everyone working here has never worked in a restaurant before. Service was ... Weird. Pizza was ok, I think they forgot to slice it?
Fer DelgadilloSeptember 10, 2015Si le gustan los sabores fuertes pidan la pizza "Del Popolo" y de cerveza Sweet Action. El lugar es tranquilo, música con el volumen adecuado los que atienden muy muy amables. Pueden combatir. Good!
Dante Guy LouisDecember 15, 2014Bonne pizza, fine, parfaitement ronde, juste piquante. Endroit très cool, dans le creux de la hype, donc décontracté.
