"The pies, topped with basil, garlic, pepperoni, and vegetables like grilled artichokes, are often ranked as some of the best in New York City."

Arthur Bovino

"The Best New York Pizzas: Lucali - Lucali’s basic pie with basil is a tour de force, with a wide, char-pocked crust capped in garlic-zapped sauce, buffalo and low-moisture mozzarellas, whisper-thin ribbons of Parmigiano-Reggiano and aromatic rosettes of basil."

Alessia Horwich

"Inside you munch thin-crust pizzas off rough wooden tables by candlelight. It might not be fancy, but it’s some of the best pizza in the city."

Greg Morabito

"New York City's 25 Most Iconic Pizzerias: Lucali - At this intimate Carroll Gardens restaurant, Mark Iacono makes thin-crust pizzas topped with a three cheese blend (fresh and imported mozz, plus Grana Padano) and fresh basil."

Erin Cunningham

"The Best Pizza in NYC: Lucali - Mark Iacono's baby has officially come to life in the form of a cozy Carroll Gardens spot practically made for posting up and devouring some thin-crust goodness."

Lucy Meilus

"Mark Iacono has perfected what he knows, offering doughy but thin crust with lots of char, topped with a fresh and tangy sauce, mozzarella, and the toppings of your choice (be sure to get the slightly spicy pepperoni). There’s a reason Beyoncé and Jay Z once skipped the Grammys to eat here."
