Di Fara Pizza

"This is an ironic place that arguably is the home of the best pizza in NYC. Opened back in the 1960s, the place is frozen in time and serves its pizza throughout decades. I remember getting it from the original owner back in time. The place is very popular, so word of advice, place your order ahead of time over the phone. My personal favorite is double porchini mushrooms with prosciutto and basil."

"Refusal slice is a 8.1 The tomato sauce is perfect, the crust is crispy and crunchy. Nice to enjoy out of the oven. Square slice is a 6.2 Tomato sauce is perfect but little too much on it. The crust wasn’t crispy at all. In order to enjoy it let it sit for a bit before the first bite. Overall is definitely worth it to try Di Farà once. If you are local then yes, Di Fara regularly pie is the way!"

"I see such mixed reviews for this pizza and feel that I have to give my 2 cents. Is this the best pizza ever? Maybe, it's preference. Is it fresh, unique, and made with its own style? Absolutely, and that's why it deserves a try. This place has been around for a long time and has a calling. It also has some history and is made with fresh and imported ingredients. If you go online and watch the video about Di Fara pizza, you can see that most of the ingredients are imported from Italy. That alone is going to change the taste from your local pizzas. The shop is a small, no frills corner store which is classic NY pizzeria to me. The taste. The taste is absolutely wonderful to me. Sweet and acidic tomatoes, fresh cheese, and a heavy basil taste, carefully placed on a crispy thin crust. Now I'm not a huge fan of crispy and thin, but I truly enjoy this slice. I do feel that this is a must try at least once if you're in NY. Give it try. . . Just don't try to park over there."

"The absolute best pizza I've ever had in my life. We tried 10 different pizza spots on our trip and Di Fara was by far the best. Yes, you'll have to wait. Yes, it is deep in Brooklyn. But I promise it is worth it. The crust was the thinnest, most crisp I've ever tasted. Its crisp even beats the top New Haven spots. I loved that they made the slices to order, not reheated. The ingredients were simple and fresh (they get everything from Italy). I have been dreaming about this pizza every day since our trip. The shop is exactly what you'd expect, very small and looks straight out of the 60s. The staff were so friendly and patient, the vibes of the place were excellent. There is a very large Orthodox Jewish population in the neighborhood. It was really cool to see so much culture and diversity. If you are a pizza fan of any kind, you absolutely have to make the trek to Di Fara. It's life changing!"
