Neighborhood pizzeria with consistently loved pies, generous portions, and friendly service at fair prices, with occasional service hiccups and mixed feedback on vegan options.
Pizza Plus earns its A- grade through exceptional thin-crust pizza and comfort dishes paired with warm, attentive service that keeps locals returning for 35+ years. The reliable execution and fair pricing make it competitive with Park Slope's better neighborhood pizzerias, though occasional order hiccups and mixed vegan offerings prevent grade A territory.
This is the kind of neighborhood spot where the staff greets you like a regular and the pies land hot with a crisp edge and soft center, a place that feels warm and welcoming. One diner summed it up: "Crust nailed, rolls steaming, and the team could not be nicer." The room reads classic Brooklyn, more practical than polished, with a cozy, family vibe that keeps locals coming back. The cooking stays close to tradition: thin-crust New York pies, sturdy pasta favorites, and specialty pies like BBQ chicken, pesto bianca, and a grandma-style square. Expect comfort-first cooking—baked ziti with a bubbly top, buffalo chicken rolls, and salads punched up with house dressings—at prices that feel fair for Park Slope. Vegan cheese and even vegan pepperoni extend the reach, though feedback on the vegan pies is mixed. Families fit right in. Kids tuck into cheese slices, vodka or Alfredo pastas, and even a small Detroit pie that some young diners adore. Portions are friendly, rolls and salads often ride along with entrees, and staff handle simple custom requests (like grilled instead of breaded) without fuss. There is no kids menu per se, but the lineup is kid-approachable and plentiful.
