Tina Casale grew up in her family's pizza business. Every pie we make carries that — fresh ingredients, real dough, nothing from a bag.

String lights, picnic tables, exposed brick inside. The kind of spot you want to stay at longer than you planned.

The Story Behind Every Pie

Tina Casale grew up in the pizza business — and in 2022, she brought everything she learned home to Brooklyn. Every pie carries that history.

Great spot for a lowkey, intimate birthday dinner with family or a casual bite with friends! The seasonal salad is a must. The arugula pizza was a group favorite as well. Thank you to Tina and team for helping host our group of 18– so welcoming, attentive and yum. Throwback playlist was a plus.

Stumbled upon this pizza place after a stroll through Greenwood. The staff was attentive, even though we were there during off hours and the pizza was fantastic! We ordered the Mr. William and would recommend to anyone visiting Brooklyn!

Such a gem in the neighborhood if you like a really crispy crust, proper sauce and high quality ingredients! I highly recommend sausage pizza and mushroom with ricotta pizza. Delicious. Shared a pizza among 2 adults, 2 kids. Perfect size.

One of my favorite pizza spots! I love the Mr. William pizza and homemade meatballs. The service here is always so friendly, kind, and fast. There is ample seating inside and the ambiance is very peaceful. The outdoor seating is perfect, I can't wait until it's warm enough again to enjoy a slice under the fairy lights!

First rate pizza! Absolutely spectacular. And don’t sleep in the Caesar salad. Amazing service, vibe, killer playlist. This is a restaurant you’ll want to repeat again and again.
