Mama Russo's Pizzeria

Above average but nothing special. More of a square pie place. Honi roni was better.

Yeah fire

Eye test- seems pretty decent Below is for the plain, followed by Brooklyn square bonus Sauce- starting here because most pizza shops skimp. Sauce clear as day jumps out as a contributor. Has a bit of spices, no sweetness. Slightly understated but absolutely solid. Cheese- again solid. Has a bit of punch, definitely not neutral. Perfect chew. Dough- decent crunch and actually has solid taste. It’s rare that dough has a meaningful taste component. This does Ratio- just a tad too cheesy Execution- solid Score for regular 7.4 Bonus Brooklyn: Hello! Come to papa! Really good. Dough- perfect. The taste and crunch nail it. Wonderful Sauce- seems sweeter. No complaints. Excellent. Maybe just a tad too sweet for most folks. I’m biased so it’s right up my alley Cheese- more understated. More than one type. Utterly perfect. Ratio- perfection Execution- killer Brooklyn score- 8.1 Not averaging the two for the app score Neil Young said, “I played with CSN and happily took a back seat. We all new the whole was better than the parts.” This joint marries good individual components for a whole that is pretty good. Brooklyn is most certainly travel worthy. Plain likely far exceeds any other neighborhood offerings.

We ordered the “Twisted Brooklyn Pie”, which is a thin Sicilian pie with vodka sauce. . Place was a madhouse (Friday in Lent), but the pizza came out sooner than we thought. Very crispy which was awesome, good amount of cheese and the vodka sauce was not great, but still pretty good. Will come back and perhaps sit outside. The indoor dining room is lit up with bright LED lights (felt like a hospital cafeteria). Too bright and did not feel like a quaint italian restaurant. We’re usually hit up Cafe Carmella, but decided to try this place instead. Glad we did, solid pizza (everything looked pretty good coming out), super busy but the girls at the counter were so pleasant under the stress…. staff was great. Just the dining room vibe was not very warm…But the pizza, better then a bunch of local spots we’ve tired…

Get the Brooklyn square pie well done. Delicious and most fresh sauce I’ve ever had. Crust had the perfect crisp. Best square pie around !

Discovered this place a few weeks ago on Facebook… their Pizza is fantastic…Owners are awesome… always ask about the one bite app.

Vito’s Brooklyn and Nino’s Honey Roni. 7.9 on the Brooklyn and a 8.1 on the Honey Roni. The honey drizzle mixed with the pepperoni spice is amazing!! Definitely worth the trip to this suburban gem.
