"There are two main reasons to come to Aromi in Carroll Gardens: the covered back patio and the pizza. The back area (fully enclosed when it’s cold out) is filled with potted plants and even has a white picket fence, and the pies here are fluffy, chewy, and blistered. In a blind taste test, you’d be hard pressed to differentiate them from the best Neapolitan pizzas in the city. Some unique toppings are offered (fried meatballs, for example), but you should stick with the margherita. Other dishes like the grilled octopus—which lacks any char—and lumpy spaghetti alla carbonara are forgettable, so fill up on multiple pies." - Neha Talreja, Kenny Yang, Hannah Albertine
