“My favourite slice in the city perhaps because I love soft doughy carbs. I’m obsessed with their Sicilian slice. Perfectly soft dough, tangy rich tomato sauce and of course a great cheese pull.”

“IMO they always get the proportion of cheese and sauce just right on the round, there's too much sauce and crust on the square”

“In my opinion the pizza is good, not great. But it’s the environment that makes it special. Sitting outside on a summer day, the place is mobbed with all sorts of people it’s just an awesome place to be.”

“agree with you. thats why its a great local spot. for me its a 10 mins drive. late nights, sitting outside with your friends, eating slices, yelling at each other, ordering other food from inside menu like calamari, and just chilling outside. and ending it with some spumoni. classic brooklyn.”

“Unfortunately, went there yesterday for some squares, man were they bad. Undercooked, sauce tasted like ketchup and had the texture of a donut like chew to them.”
H3
“L&B blew me away a few weeks ago - I had a center, a side and a corner. How is the pizza so light and airy? It’s not as filling as I thought it would be. Was very impressed.”
H3
“Spumoni Gardens is still my GOAT specifically because of how the dough and cheese kind of transition into each other - the flavor is of course good too but the texture is unique.”
H3
“Had their pizza a month ago. Prego on soggy bread with canned mushrooms. Don’t know what the hype is about”

“Quality varies all over the place. Usually not crispy because it's been sitting there and they're too lazy to reheat it.”

“Been going on and off for years since I've moved to sheepshead bay, has been great at times, you do get some undercooked or burnt now and then but still holds it's flavor, usually toss in the toaster oven or air fryer for a bit, makes for great leftovers if you get a half or full tray, their spumoni ice still hits for a good treat”

“Probably unpopular opinion but I feel the dough is too dense and sometimes a little undercooked? Sauce is great though”

“I love them. Nostalgia wise and also when my dad was released from the hospital on Christmas Eve a few years ago unexpectedly they put together a whole feast for us on the fly and even delivered it.”
H3
“Personally I love the crusty bottom and doughy "soft but chewy" texture matrix, with the cheese enveloped in semi-sweet sauce. 10/10 no notes I go at least once a week.”

“Tried it out today and wasn't disappointed! Same pillowy crust, same amazing sauce that I know from the OG location.”

“My husband is a fanatic however, so I had to go back, and it was way better this time so I thought I’d give credit where it’s due. The sauce is a little sweet for me but I get why, for a certain palette, it’s considered toppish tier.”

“L and B is good, but overrated and it used to be better. I still enjoy it occasionally but yea I think it’s overrated. It’s can sometimes be both soggy and burnt at the same time, a true paradox”
H2

H2
“L&B: Absolutely divine, and I like their sauce even better than OG Di Fara's.”
