About
Grimaldi's Pizzeria stands apart from other Brooklyn pizzerias by sticking to coal-fired brick ovens and a recipe that traces back to 1905. It's a family-friendly spot where the mixed crowd comes for classic NYC pizza. They use handmade mozzarella and dough daily, plus a secret sauce. The vibe is lively and casual, perfect for groups. Beer and wine are the only alcohol options.
The DUMBO location draws both tourists and locals. You'll often find a wait, but reservations are accepted. Outdoor seating is available when the weather cooperates. Free WiFi means you can linger. If you're nearby, a stop at Lombardi's on Spring Street is another slice of history.
Located in the DUMBO neighborhood of Brooklyn, this area is known for its cobblestone streets, waterfront parks, and iconic view of the Manhattan skyline.
