on Citysearch Sep 02, 2009I can confirm that the owner is a mean, bitter old man. Surprising, considering his success. I've been to Grimaldi's many times before and had always enjoyed the experience. So when I tried to take a friend there the... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 22, 2009This place is so cute...so cozy...a little tight and sometimes noisey but that is the beauty of it. Everyone in there sits next to each other, somewhat like a family style dining and you end up peeking over to see what... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 20, 2009grimaldis is homophobic after waiting in line for about 40 minutes, the guy told me and my friends we could not go in because we had tank tops on, even though there were other patrons in the restaurant. We believe it was... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 20, 2009For me pizza is all about the crust and Grimaldi's knows how to do it right. (more)

on Citysearch Jul 06, 2009I waited in a line for an hour and fifteen minutes just to order takeout. The pizza crust is wonderful, but the cheese ruined the whole pie. It was too salty to eat. I was very dissapointed. They don't answer phone calls... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 05, 2009There is a reason why people would stand in line for an hour on a weekend afternoon. Without a doubt the best brick oven pizza in New York City... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 07, 2009Reason why my friends and I didn't like the pizza was because we didn't get to stay long enough to eat it. We were treated extremely disrespectfully. Some old man who was in charge of the line outside began using... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 21, 2009Grimaldi's is truly the best pizza I've ever had. Walk across the brooklyn bridge, leave 30min to stand in line and grab ice cream at brooklyn ice cream shop when it's done. (more)

on Citysearch Jan 02, 2009Take a walk across the Brooklyn Bridge from Manhattan for the best pizza in NYC!! Go around 11:30 if you want to miss the long lines, or call ahead and eat on the pier. Thin crust, fresh mozzarella and toppings, all... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 28, 2008Pizza is okay, fresh mozzarella is used so it isn't greasy. Pepperoni is above average good. Pizza is thin crust but not spectacular overall. Nothing I'd wait in line for again. And after waiting in line, I get into a... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 23, 2008We did not experience the rude service people have described and did not feel particularly rushed. Lines were long but moved surprisingly fast. The place itself was cramped and a bit noisy. Apart from the long lines I... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 10, 2008Crust is crispy and flavourful from the oven. Sauce with fresh chopped tomatos. Fresh mozarella. Hot and fresh every time. Light in weight, but not in taste. The best pie without treking too far.... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 10, 2008I have had a lot of pizza and Grimaldi's is the best pizza I have ever had! I would go back to New York just to eat this pizza. It's right under the brooklyn bridge in brooklyn..with a green and red sign, can't miss it. Must... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 09, 2008I've lived in Brooklyn for a while and I've had MUCH better pizza both here and in the city. This place relies completely on hype and the "emperor's new clothes" factor. The pizza itself is VERY average (the base is... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 07, 2008Gramadi's not only offers great pizza for an affordable price, but the experience of walking the interesting area of BUMBO in Brooklyn. They are right by the water so the experience at night is beautiful. Expect to... (more)

on Judys Book Sep 04, 2008Love the pizza and the atmosphere. Makes the long wait to get in all worth it. They try to cram people in the small space, so great way to talk to other people there. I like how they use fresh cheese and thin crust. So thin... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 04, 2008Grimaldi's pizza is awesome! Be prepared to wait on line, especially on Friday and Saturday nights. Although the wait is a drag and the place is small and cramped it is well worth it.... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 06, 2008I would NOT recommend Grimaldi's. First, the pizza was gross. The sauce was flavorless and watery, thus making the crust soggy and cold right away. There was nothing to make it special...there are way better pizza... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 11, 2008My husband and I were there a few weeks ago. We just happen to walking in the area and decided to drop in for a slice. One of the best pizzas we ever had! Very highly recommended. (more)

on Citysearch Jul 07, 2008Classic NYC, smoky flavored, thin crust pizza, baked in a coal fired brick oven. Pizza is made with their own sauce, as well as fresh mozzarella and basil. Grimaldi?s is in DUMBO, just over the Brooklyn Bridge, and can... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 17, 2008Great pizza and calzones. I've been eating Brooklyn and NYC pizza since I've been able to chew (25 years) and this is good pizza. I don't understand the reviews from dissatisfied tourists...it isn't Domino's or... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 05, 2008After reading so much about Grimaldi's, I decided to try it. My family and I even went as early as 10:50 am (even though the place opens at 11:30) just to be sure we were first in line and assured of a table. But boy were we... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 16, 2008Not really thrilled with the pizza or the service. After standing on line to get a table, waited fifteen minutes just to get our drinks. The pizza crust was burnt, and our waiter could have cared less--like customers... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 21, 2008I didn't have much expectation when I went to Grimaldi's, but once the pizza arrived at the table and I took the first bite, I was convinced that it was, and is, and probably will be, the best pizza anywhere ever. EVER.... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 02, 2008Well, of course having lived in New York for sometime, I'd heard of Grimaldi's, however I'd never been! So my girlfriend and I decided to give it a try. Well, we went and didn't have to wait long. It was in the summer, so... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 27, 2007This is the best pizza I've ever had in NYC. Yes, there are long lines but I was fortunate enough not to have to wait in one because I visited on a whim on a lazy Sunday afternoon. The service was prompt and pizza knocked my... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 11, 2007Ok, so I too bought the hype and prepared myself to stand in line. Fortunately, I went in the middle of the week at a time when my girlfriend, our children and I could just walk in a get a seat. The waiters were not at all... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 26, 2007The Pros: Fabulous Pizza! The crust is thin and crisply, cheese is delicous - by far the best pizza I've had. The Cons: Lines can be long - very long! Service is pretty crappy, but welcome to New York! Tables are very... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 18, 2007GREAT pizza...Crowded atmosphere. Would be nice if you could order half a pie and not an entire one....or use credit cards like 99% of businesses in this city! (more)

on Citysearch Sep 03, 2007I went to Grimalid's for the first time on Sunday. The line was already pretty long and was expected. We waited in line for about 40 minutes so needless to say we were starving. We got sat next to another party of 2 and a... (more)
