"Lucali makes some of the best pizza in New York City. Naturally, you’ll need to show up hours before they open to get a table—and wait hours more before you can actually eat at this legendary BYOB spot. Even though it opened in 2006, Lucali feels like a holdover from old-school south Brooklyn, with well-used taper candles and hand-labeled jars of tomato sauce. There are only two things on the menu: pizza and calzones. You can choose from a handful of toppings, but we recommend keeping the pizza simple, and adding hot peppers and pepperoni to the calzone." - neha talreja, bryan kim, willa moore, will hartman
