One of the best pizza places in New York! I miss this place so much and it’s family owned. They know how to take care of there customers and treat you like family
The food is great also the owners. The make you feel like family. Such a great mom and pop pizzeria
I grew up around the corner from this place and it was always my #1 choice for a solid classic pizza. I moved away for a few years to Howard Beach then LES, but recently moved back to South Brooklyn and the first thing I had to do to break in our new home was an order from Grotta Azzurra. Let me tell ya, nothing beats those family recipes! Years later and it’s still one of the best spots for authentic pizza and delicious pasta dishes. No place compares.

Grotta Azzurra is a beloved Italian eatery known for its authentic, delicious pizzas and more. Their pies are great both hot and cold, and the lasagna remains a standout favorite. Customers say the garlic knots are the best in NYC, always freshly made with the perfect texture. The restaurant offers a consistent formula with high-quality ingredients, making it a neighborhood staple. The atmosphere has a classic, old school Italian pizzeria feel that's hard to find these days. The owner is a welcoming Italian man who provides very chill service, making guests feel at home. The staff is friendly, and the place feels like a family run business. Vegetarian options like cheese, sauce, and bread are available, and the place is appreciated for its traditional vibe. Many customers come from afar just to enjoy a slice, considering it probably the second best cheese slice in Brooklyn, with a crust that is crispier than Krispys. Reviewers describe the sauce as sweet and generous on the cheese, and the mozzarella sticks as fresh. The restaurant has been a favorite since the 1990s and remains a reliable spot for authentic pizza. Delivery options now allow customers to enjoy their familiar flavors at home, keeping the tradition alive.
