Lemon-kissed white slices & breadcrumb-topped tomato pies w/ no lines. Williamsburg pizza done right.
Will Hartman reviews Fini Pizza, a Williamsburg spot known for its unique lemon-enhanced white pizza and breadcrumb-topped tomato slices, offering a different vibe than nearby L'Industrie.
This Williamsburg pizza spot, from the acclaimed minds behind Lilia and Misi, offers a refreshing twist on classic pies. Their white pizza, brightened with lemon zest and served with a lemon slice, provides a unique counterpoint to the rich cheese, while the tomato slice boasts a vibrant sauce and a delightful textural crunch from breadcrumbs. It's a go-to for a casual, high-quality slice without the usual crowds.
This Italian-American pizzeria is celebrated for its creative pizza offerings. The white slice, enhanced with lemon zest and a lemon slice, and the tomato slice, topped with garlicky breadcrumbs, are consistently highlighted as must-tries. While other slices like cheese and pepperoni are also well-regarded, the Sicilian slice is noted as less essential due to an overpowering amount of Parmesan. Some have noted occasional consistency issues, with one instance of lukewarm slices.
"The white slice with lemon, the tomato slice with breadcrumbs, and the lemon pie are frequently recommended and highly praised by customers."
Customers overwhelmingly praise the pizza, particularly the unique white slice with lemon and the flavorful tomato slice. It's frequently recommended as a top-tier pizza option in NYC.
