Long-running pizza place with a welcoming interior known for pies baked in a wood-burning oven.

Great spot in Brooklyn. Worth it.
Nice ambiance, staff is wonderful.
Appetizers were fresh. Sauce is a-mazing and pizzas are simply fresh and tasty
The desserts are definitely good, especially the brownie

Amazing. Again.

The best pizza in the world. The pie is absolutely unbelievable. I always go for the Funghi Misti — we love mushrooms! But honestly, every pie here is a game changer. They’ve mastered everything to perfection: the crust, the balance of flavors, everything.
The staff is always polite and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. And if you use apps like InKind, you can even save some money.
Highly recommended.

This is one, if not THE ONE restaurant I will always recommend for those looking for the best pizza in nyc. Trust me, are you trusting me yet? Two words “Spinach pie”. I know, in a world of meat lovers and other combos it may not sound as attractive. But if you give it a try, hopefully it will change your life just as it did mine. Putting all that aside, the service and atmosphere are great!! Perfect for date nights, girls night out or just a casual hang.

Nice small restaurant, casual vibes, clay fire oven. Service was fine, didn’t come by much but never had a water glass run dry.
Not too loud, would recommend for lunch or dinner. Lighter crust with some char from the open flames. Sandwiches use the pizza dough which had a good crunch.
Food was good, the corn ribs were a pleasant surprise! Would come back for lunch, maybe not be a go to pizza place, but the menu has many options and would be good for multiple people.

We have been customers of Fornino on Manhattan Ave since their second day in business over a decade ago. They still sometimes make an excellent pizza, but most of the time now I can say it is very good. They always had the foible of experimenting with the dough, and sometimes it has been a real let-down. Yesterday’s pizza had an excellent topping, as we have come to expect, and was cooked to perfection, but the dough was a little less so, missing a little salt and being a bit more chewy than when they are at the top of their game. That said, a decent pizza from Fornino would be a very nice pizza for most other places. I think they may have changed owners in the recent past because of small changes to the shop anc the feel. But the quality is still there and you can still count on getting an enjoyable meal.

they went above and beyond! It was our anniversary and they came out and surprised us with pizzas shaped like hearts! The manager and our server both checked in on us and wished us a happy anniversary. The pizza is some of the best I’ve had in the city. Thank you for your hospitality Fornino!

Best place for gluten free pizza / eats! Been coming for years and the space is massive- very deceiving from the outside. They even have a patio in the back! I love the open kitchen concept for the pizza making so you can watch the whole process. Team is always friendly and attentive. Would highly recommend !

Greenpoint staple offering fresh and incredible wood-fired pizza along with great hospitality. Vibe is super chill and laidback just exactly what one would expect from this location. Backyard dining area is a must when weather permits.
Both menu and drink selection being so abundant is truly the key for return visits.
