I never write reviews, positive or negative, but am compelled to do so after being treated so rudely today at Totonno’s. I walked in with my family and though we were THE ONLY customers in the restaurant, we were totally ignored by the 3 staff for a full 10 minutes. A woman seated in a booth had no less than 7 screens in front of her that she stared and cursed at, at one point, threw her phone across the table in anger. Finally she looked up and acknowledged our presence by frowning up at us, saying “What do you want?” I ordered a pie. She said it would be at least 45 minutes so we turned around and left. I had traveled well out of my way to support this famous local pizza place but cannot in any way support a business that is so disdainful of its customers. I don’t care if the pizza is amazing— I’d never give them my business. You shouldn’t either.

You can't be serious about this pizza. Everyone is hyped up by social media. This pizza is ok at best. Overpriced, over hyped. Smaller slices, its really a medium pie at a large pie price. I've been eating pizza in Brooklyn for 50 yrs. Brooklyn has alot of better pizza places than this.

Sure the pizza is good. Good crust, everything. Just don't expect this to be a restaurant. It's a takeout place. The service is terrible, it's the same grumpy and mean lady that was here 30 years ago. At least back then they had a few tables to sit and eat the pizza fresh instead of putting it in a box to get steamed up and mushy. They are only open a few hours on the weekend. At this point they should just close. Admit you had a good run, but preserve the memory. This is just sad.

This pizza is worth the detour. Far out of downtown, this pizza place is well worth the detour. You cant dine in but you can bring your pizza on the beach and eat it by the seashore. This one is gonna be a hard one take my #1 spot

Really good pizza! Thin and crispy with good crust. Multiple bag of flour and mixer in sight as all doe is made fresh daily.

This historical gem is located in the heart of Coney Island which is why I gave it one star for atmosphere but the service is pretty good like previously stated in other reviews the owner can be a bit rough around the edges but she's an old school Italian lady and I get it growing up in Brooklyn myself. Most importantly the pizza is really good But like other people said it's a bit pricey for the size of the pie but you get what you pay for and I believe that it's worth it even if you only want to try it once to experience a taste of History.

Definitely an historical institution. They invented the white pie. Only open Saturday and Sunday. White pie is still definitely worth going to this place for!!
The pizza is great, but it’s definitely not worth going there unless you want to be treated like crap. Today was my second and last time ever stepping foot in there. The first time I went, the server, an older woman with red hair was plain nasty and was super rude, I didn’t tip her she simply did not deserve it. She makes you feel like your presence alone is the biggest bother to her. There are plenty of servers who are lovely people, and know how to treat their customers. Today I went back and what do you know? The same woman is there, obviously just older and even more nastier than the last time. This time I walked out. I refuse to deal with her arrogant disrespectful self.

Even with an empty table the rude owner refused to let my son and I eat in the restaurant. It is only take out. I told her I was from Long Island and had no place to take the pizza she told me “I don’t care where you came from, people come from Australia. What a dump, don’t waste your time here. Go to L&B. Anthony Totonno is probably rolling in his grave.

Visited Totonno’s Pizza today. Located in Coney Island, this institution is only open on Saturday and Sunday from 12 to 5 PM. There is a lot to love about this pizza. The crust was baked just right. Each bite you heard a satisfying crunch unlike other pizzas that are doughy. The end/crust was puffy and not flat. Lastly, the sauce, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese round out your sensory overload! Coal fired pizzas take on a different flavor vs. wood and gas stoves.
If you are in the area, you must try one of the few remaining coal fired pizza restaurants in New York City. Recent regulations have made it extremely costly for these restaurants to remain in business. They only sell one size starting at $27 for a margarita. Visit them and check out Coney Island along the way.

Totonno's and Lombardi's are two of best the city has to offer.
