Lucali’s Pizza Carroll Gardens Brooklyn
Posted By: Pizza Expert on November 16th, 2009

There is something that is alluring about mobster run pizza establishments. While researching Lucali’s Pizza in Brooklyn, I came to realize that this incredible pizzeria actually has a reputed Colombo crime family member working there. That made the visit even more exciting. You know some proud Italian gangster, is not about to serve sub-par pizza. A this pizza was as far from sub-par as they come. This pizza was amazing.




I have mixed feelings about Di Fara’s and have put off writing about it for a while. It’s considered an excellent (if not the premier) pizzeria in NYC. I went over a year ago, days before hopping on a plane to Naples, and didn’t think it was worth the hype.

There are times in my pizza experiences that I have questioned if the place was really worth the wait. Grimaldi’s Pizza under the bridge in Brooklyn is one of the places I didn’t really need to wait around for.
