Grimaldi's Pizzeria – Italian
The intoxicating aroma of smoky coal fires and simmering tomato sauce fills this lively space, where red-and-white checkered tablecloths and a bustling energy evoke the timeless charm of a Brooklyn classic. Skilled hands stretch fresh dough before sliding it into signature brick ovens, producing thin, crispy crusts kissed with char and topped with velvety mozzarella and vibrant, fragrant herbs. The crackle of the hearth and the shared joy of a hand-crafted pie create a quintessential Italian-American experience that feels both nostalgic and celebratory.

What diners are saying
Celebrated for its traditional coal-fired brick oven pizza, Grimaldi’s consistently impresses diners with its perfectly crisp crust and fresh tomato sauce. Guests rave about specific pies like "The Don" loaded with meats and the "Brooklyn Bridge" featuring roasted peppers and sausage, though portions are massive—two 18-inch pies easily feed four with leftovers. Reviewers highlight the old-school Brooklyn atmosphere and cozy charm, often noting the stunning views near Pier 1. While wait times can be long on weekends, most agree the phenomenal pizza and desserts like Oreo cheesecake make it wort
