Coal-fired pies w/ charred crust & fresh toppings. A Dumbo favorite, often hailed as one of NYC's best.
Willa Moore reviews Juliana's Pizza, a Dumbo favorite known for its coal-fired pies with a deeply charred crust and fresh toppings, calling it the top choice for this style of pizza in the neighborhood.
This Dumbo institution, with roots tracing back to the legendary Patsy's and the original Grimaldi's, offers a truly exceptional coal-fired pizza experience. Known for its distinctively charred crust, fresh, minimally seasoned tomato sauce, and high-quality mozzarella, each pie is a testament to classic New York pizza artistry. While slices aren't available, the margherita pizza is a standout, showcasing the purity of its ingredients.
The pizza at Juliana's is consistently praised for its excellent quality, featuring a distinctively charred crust from the coal-fired oven, fresh tomato sauce, and stretchy mozzarella. The margherita pizza is specifically recommended for its balanced flavors. While highly regarded, there are some policy restrictions, such as not serving sausage on small pizzas.
