Pricilla WangApril 16, 2014This casual bar and pie shop, top-notch wood-fired cheese discs for years, Buffalo mozz, prosciutto di parma, and pecorino Toscano DOP. a pretty great beer selection too
GothamistJune 6, 2012Excellent beer selection, better than necessary wine by the glass, and delicious pizza from a wood fired oven. Pro tip: Bathroom is wallpapered with 1970s playboys. Be sure to ask about the beer club.- Fodor's TravelSeptember 9, 2015There are many delectable options, from classic margherita to fig and gorgonzola or smoked pancetta and black garlic, and a tempting selection of salads, too.

Definitely the best pizza you can get in Park Slope (South). Probably the best pizza you can get in all of Brooklyn. Great draught selection. Do yourself a favor and come on by.
Toby's still stands as my favorite pizza in NYC, but I can't believe I waited this long to try the truffle mushroom ravioli. 😱 Equally as good.
eric mortensenAugust 12, 2016Bro's abound. Backward baseball caps. Long talks about college rivalries. Naked women photo wallpaper in the bathroom. Too bad, cuz it has some good beer and food.
Dane BJanuary 18, 2015Good pizza. Good beer. Good music. Good people. Good beef jerky. What more do you need in life?
Great pizza, and they were so willing to make changes to anything to suit a vegan. I had the veggie pizza with artichoke hearts, no cheese. Great beers, too!
Michael SmutkoJune 2, 2015Smoked pancetta, tartuffa and the risotto. Omg. Mushroom ravioli with truffle sauce is awesome. Great beer selection
🍕❤️ Toby's. Order everything, (but really the mushroom ravioli and a pizza to dip into the sauce omg).
My favorite place to eat pizza in Brooklyn. Hands down. Get the Bufalina, really, get it right now.
Bartender Bam's (off menu) Beef Jerky, grab a bag of original and kill me (spicy) to help wash down your pizza and brews- In this order: Tartufata, sit outside, talk to Chris or Bam, DOC, Sopressatta, Spinach pie, Manicotti, Polenta, Mushroom Rav, Arugala salad, enjoy the restroom, sports, beer/wine, chat, smile
Jason StruckDecember 27, 2014Pizza was amazing (Fig/Gorgonzola). Beer selection was small but solid. Great bartender and service.
Have tried almost every pizza on the menu now and they are all super deeeelish. Also dont miss out on the pumpkin salad! Smoked pumpkin seeds!
David HoltzOctober 3, 2016The pizza is good. Service wasn't super friendly. We asked them to put a CFB game onto one of the TVs and it became a long and awkward ordeal when it didn't have to be.
Flat crust pizza that's actually filling. Note the beer club's member mugs hanging above the bar.
Autumn RayneDecember 14, 2014Mushroom ravioli is as the famed Bam says "phenomenal" gotta get some of his jerky also. It's been on TV after all.
Elliott ChristMay 21, 2011GF and I first visited our current digs on Valentines Day 2010, ate at Toby's a block away. That easily clinched us falling utterly in love with South Slope/Greenwood, and Toby's in particular.
The pizza is amazing -- but so are the salads and the tiramisu. But the oddest attraction is Bam the bartender's beef jerky; the Dr. Peppa is a particular favorite of mine.
Kev SkinnyAugust 13, 2014Best in the area, but who has time to wait 45 mins for a small pie? Cash only spot also and not cheap so hit up a bank before ordering.
Great beer and great pizza. Favorites are the Margherita and the spinach pizza
Daniella TaginoMarch 1, 2014This is the bartender that does't treat their costumer as he should , just ignoring our call with his back to us!
The buffalina pizza is incredible! Owned by a company that also owns an animal rights organization!
The Corcoran GroupNovember 6, 2010Pizza, beer and sports! We love Toby’s Calzone, The Smoked Pancetta and the Napoletana. Don’t miss the Dessert Calzone!
David ZhangSeptember 21, 2014My second favorite pizza in the city (after lucali). The tartufata is incredible!
David GreenbergerSeptember 4, 2014$2 beers (Toby's Ale) from 4-7 (Happy Hour) and outside seating in Soho. Ohhhh kayyyy
TristanJuly 31, 2011"Every weekday between 4pm-6pm Toby’s puts out antipasti at the bar for their patrons. These snacks change daily, but often include flatbread, olives, cheese etc." - eater.com
- The Sandwich Enthusiast 🍔November 25, 2015Some of the best thin crust pizza I've had in NYC. Great stuff.
Amber VittoriaSeptember 22, 2014The tartufata is perfect for two, though it is incredible enough to eat a whole one on your own.
Ethan MorganNovember 10, 2010Pizza was really good and two IPA's to choose from. They don't deliver but I'm sure I with brave the winter months a few times this winter for pick up.
Nyrican PrincessJune 10, 2012Besides having the best brick oven pizza They have the best tiramisu & buffalo mozzarella salad.
Manda ShettletonJuly 13, 2014Mushroom Ravioli made me so so happy. Perfect consistency creamy sauce.
Have the hot cap and artichoke pizza! It made it onto the menu after Sam H. and I suggested it. Also, it's DELICIOUS.
Everything is fantastic here. If you aren't in the mood for pizza get a calzone. No calzone? Get the mannicotti. You won't be dissapointed; and as always, TIP WELL.
ºDamian White ºApril 2, 2011The Quattro Stagioni was simply to die for, but that Manicotti that came out of that brick oven...mmmmm!! Smelled a little like heaven!- Megan NunemacherJune 9, 2012The del mac is amazeballs and if you have room get the dessert calzone, yum!
The fontina rosemary chickpea bruschetta and the mussels make a good start!
The bathroom is wallpapered with Playboy mag covers. This caused some *awesome* conversation when I took my 5 year old in to take a leak.
Beer Bar ReviewsMay 18, 2012Just a good ol' neighborhood hangout to drink, watch the game and eat truffle pizza.
Matt AbruzzoJuly 12, 2010The Pizza Napoletana is to die for! As is the Calzone. The atmosphere is so chill and relaxed.
