Family Pizza

This place is robbing people. The prices on the menu are not the real price! My wife and I went in and ordered 12 mozzarella sticks, menu says $8.99 for 6 and $14.99 for 12. We also got 2 cheese slice, they cost $3.25 each. When we went to pay the total came to $32. That’s $10 more than what the menu prices said. I was then told their register has different prices than the menu. In the register 6 mozz sticks are $11 so they charged that twice and then 12 mozzarella sticks were $22. When the girl called the owner to ask what to do she was told that there is a disclaimer on the menu that says prices are subject to change without notice! When in reality they are hoping you don’t notice the jacked up price when it’s time to pay. Really liked this place but I will no longer give my money to a grimy business

GREAT classic NY slices! Wonderful balance of cheese to sauce. Crust was chewy and delicious. Fantastic hospitality from Alfredo too!

I’m from Maryland and I come here for the whole cheese pizza every time I’m in Brooklyn. The last visit was about 15 years ago. Now I live in Florida and I miss the pizza but I will be back there in December. Looking forward to eating one of the best pizza I’ve ever had.

Great local slice joint with well-crafted cheesy pizzas and decent prices. A few little tables to enjoy your slice in too.

Cute pizzeria. Got the Mexican slice to eat there. Was super thin and crisp. Got a bunch of others to go. Can’t wait to try them all!!!

Out of towner review: Great NY style pizza. We were visiting Brooklyn for the weekend and was looking for a good, local spot. A large cheese pie was $14, free delivery. Staff was super friendly, took about 35 mins delivery on a Saturday night. Enjoy!

Delicious sausage and jalapeño pizza. Ordered twice from here when we’re in the area for a game night at our friend’s apartment. Now a favorite take-away for us. Be sure to request that the jalapeños be cooked with the pizza! It’s sooo much better!

The staff is so great here. We came in last night 20 minutes before close with a rush order on six pies and they were so kind and understanding, then crunched them all out in 30 minutes. They all came out delicious too! Like others said, fair pricing to put a pretty little bow on it all. I'll be coming back here next time that I'm in the area to show love.

EPITOME OF BROOKLYN PIZZA They are serving up great Brooklyn style pizza over here. This pizza won't make it to any of the highly publicized "Best of New York Pizza" lists because it lacks the amount of fanfare. It's a neighborhood pizza joint churning out great pizza for the locals. Brooklyn style pizza is known for its size, larger slices that are meant to be consumed by folding in half with one hand. Additional characteristics include a generous amount of cheese and thin chewy crust. Family pizza does all of the above while having a robust sauce with actual basil. As a longtime resident, it wasn't my go-to pizza spot as a child but it sure is now! Their pizza is delicious but don't forget about their pepperoni rolls, mozzarella sticks and garlic knots. They are a full service pizzeria so the pizza topping and even pasta options are endless. In an attempt to keep up with the times, they now accept cash app and Zelle for payment. So definitely come through to grab at least one slice when in the area, you won't be disappointed!

- friendly service - 10 minute turnver - spaghetti is very cheesy - spaghetti had great leftover factor I think I liked it better the second tine around - spaghetti portion was large - delicious garlic knots 4 knots for $2 - at ten pm, pizza looked Iike it was sitting there a while

vodka penne 3.5/5 spinach pizza 3/5 spinach roll 3.8/5 hawaiian pizza 3.8/5 lasagna pizza 3/5 marg 4/5 patty 4/5 not going to talk about the pizza really cause like it's p subjective if you want like a nuanced take you can DM me or something I go to a lot of pizza places and this is a p good review imo i def come here if im in the area and want pizza at least for now

This is not destination pizza. The douche from Bar Stool will not be reviewing them. However, they are VERY close to the Park. If this pizza was not in the northeast, it would be 5 star pizza. However, they have so much insane competition in NYC, that it's only 3 star pizza in BK. However, if you are in Flatbush / coming from / going to the park & want pizza, they get it done & I was happy !

Super cute pizzeria. Enjoyed the Mexican slice I had. Slice was super thin and crisp with perfect balance of pineapple and jalapeños. 1991 establishment my research shows. Storefront presents older but it's for old school vibes. Can't wait to try the other slices I got.

Always good pizza and huge slices! It's the go-to neighborhood spot and the staff is really friendly. Just bring cash $$

Delicious pizza and even nicer owners!! First of all, the pizzas are HUGE. Two pieces had be absolutely stuffed! We got half Margherita, half veggie. The Margherita was excellent--just what I needed. My friends are also vegetarian, so they've had their fair share of veggie pizzas. They said this was one of the most well-done, robust veggie pizzas they've ever had. The pizza dough/crust was also so soft and chewy. We also got the garlic knots, which were a bit disappointing. There was way too much garlic. I would've taken off a star, but the service here is so superb that I added it back on. Definitely stop by for a great slice (or more) of pizza!

Nothing fancy, just really solid and classic New York slices. Thin and crisp base, none of that doughy BS. The pepperoni is deliciously greasy. They don't deliver or I would eat them more. As it is, I'm happy to walk 5 min out of the way to hit them up when I'm in the Parkside area.

I needed something quick and easy to get during my lunch break. I ordered two slices and asked them to add all the veggies they could (trying to keep it healthy-ish.) I was expecting less veggies, but they were generous on the portion. The price was super reasonable and the pizza was solid.

Friend, tasty and well-priced! First New York pizza we had in years and really enjoyed this place!!

Excellent, the real deal! Love their pizza. Very local and delicious. I recommend to anyone , they're also very polite

I deflected this pizza restaurant for lunch with work colleagues. The pizza is good. Ordered via telephone and be prepared to pay cash. They were very helpful in placing the order and the delivery (I messed up the location for work). Friendly service, reasonable price and good taste!

I grew up in the neighborhood and they were the go to for pizza.New York Slice awesome

This is no frills pizza at its finest. I have never had a bad experience from Family Pizza. They are always on time, the pizza is always hot, and it is incredibly affordable. I always stick with a classic cheese pizza, although I will splurge and get a buffalo chicken pie from time to time. Their chicken parm heroes are also incredible. Cheap, massive in size, and very satisfying. Family Pizza is reliable, delicious, and will be at your door before you hang up the phone.

They serve an excellent version of a classic New York slice, one that's sturdy enough to eat with one hand without it flopping over, and with a crust so tasty you eat every last bite of it. The ratio of cheese to sauce to bread was ideal, and in true New York form, I covered mine in oregano, chili flakes, and garlic powder. They have a little window you can order and pay at without even stepping inside, so they have a set up ideal for pandemic times. I inhaled a slice on the way to the grocery store, feeling so lucky that amazing pizza can exist around every corner when you live in New York.

This is my #1 favorite classic slice spot in Brooklyn. Also if I'm having some friends over for something casual or on a Friday night, it's a great place to order a couple of pies, they'll whip them up in 15 minutes tops. I can't stress enough how happy and nostalgic a pepperoni slice or peppers and olives makes me...or just their classic cheese is perfection. Sturdy enough to load em up the way you want your New York slice to be. Heroes are great too. The value is unmatched.

What a great spot. Quick, friendly service and delicious crispy pizza. Great selection of slices and drinks, as well. Try Family Pizza. You will be glad you did.

Love love love this place. After my slice of sausage pizza, I told the guy "This was really good" and he replied "You got good taste" Hah, love it. The garlic knots were 4 for $1!! Being just 1 person, I couldn't make the room to eat 4 so the lady was nice enough to sell me 2 for .50 cents. I couldn't believe how cheap it was!! Back in the Bay Area, I would have been easily charged $7+ for 4 garlic knots. They were good and full of flavor. The pizza itself had a crispy crust which I liked. The sausage though would be a pass for next time, since they just chop on sausage and put it on a cheese pizza. it definitely seems like a family business and I hope they are able to thrive. Stop by after a visit at Prospect Park or the Botanical Gardens!

I am biased. This pizza location is my childhood shop. We are talking about my first experience ever having pizza from maybe 6-7 years old. I remember the cheesy pizza stretching with each bite and the crust being crunchy. I have not been there for over 20 years and when I had that first bite, I became a child once again. They didn't take card ( cash only establishment) which is perfectly fine because that's what I've always remembered. But for everyone else I can see that being an issue. The slices are massive and for a guy like me, it is perfect! I don't know when I will return again, as I don't live anywhere close to this shop. But I am happy they are still around, and I am happy that the recipe is as consistent as it was all of those years ago.

Is down to two stars I'm trying to keep it going but they need to work on it. all original people out of here don't know the three stooges and his mama making the pizza not the same and Corazon was horrible TheOwner it's not there no more to watch over the people that are cooking there not Italian

The absolute sweethearts that work here set this place apart. I was walking down Flatbush being like okay let me just try to get a little bit of a beverage on my way to the park. But I also hadn't had lunch so I was like okay let me grab a little slice while I'm here too. It's a normal pizza joint it's got a bunch of different veggie and meat options everything looks delicious. I eat all the above but I went for a broccoli and ricotta. I got a fruit punch to go with. First of all they actually heat up the pizza slice to where it's hot and a lot of places don't bother to wait that extra 45 seconds so thumbs up on that. Second of all the fruit punch was all fruit punch it wasn't a bunch of ice well a little bit of fruit punch in it so thumbs up on that as well. Third and most importantly the individual behind the counter with all the tattoos on their face was absolute kind-hearted soul. I will definitely come back to this pizza place because a lot of pizza places they just kind of grunt at you and they're rude and this individual made me feel very comfortable and welcome. Great job family Pizza

This is my favorite slice in the area immediately south of Prospect Park. Nothing fancy, but just a classic NY slice with perfect crust and tasty sauce

This is my favorite pizza in the area. They don't really serve that new age experimental hit or miss flavors. Just your classic pizzas. The over all pizza from sauce to crust is PERFECT!!!! The place is kept clean and tidy. Nothing fancy but the pizza is fricken delicious. Love them.

What can I say except there's "No pizza like Brooklyn pizza. Perfect crust and cheese to sauce ratio.

Everyone has there favorite pizza spot. This one is mine and I love them!!! Pizza is just perfect, huge slices, fresh topics, all the sauces!!!! Little hole in the wall on Flatbush right by Prospect Park. I definitely recommend this place!!!!

Extremely solid local slice joint, run by kind people. Old school, New York style pizza. Garlic knots a must!

This no frills pizzeria looks like it's still in the 80's but that's a good thing. If you're looking for classic ny style pizza, nothing in the area comes close. The balance of crunch chew cheese and sauce is reminiscent the good ole pizza days before dollar slices ruined the game. 2 plain and a drink. You're good to go.

Garlic knots were amazing. Pizza slice was great. If you're looking for quick, friendly service after a night out - look no further!

Padded the bill 4$ for waters not ordered or received. Dishonesty always backfires. Enough said!!

My favourite greasy cheesy slice. Pro tip: If you're getting a whole pie, ask them for one that's already ready, because their pizza really shines upon a second reheating (gets nice and crispy). I love this place and always exchange waves with the guys working the counter when I walk by.

Best slice in the hood without a doubt, quintessential pizza joint that feels timeless. I just wish they took cards, but the quality alone commands 5 stars.

Great bk slice & these Mexican guys speak Italian!! Who knew?! The old Italian original who owns the shop is a real lovable grump. My fav is the take out window they open in the summer. Sum Ppl eat garlic knots but I've never tried it. Mamma Mia!

Family Pizza is just fantastic. Truly enjoy the atmosphere and friendly service. Each and every single item that we have purchased was incredibly fresh and yummy. The place was popping but the service was awesome. Loved it and I would recommend it to any of my friends.

Very surprised by how thick the pizza is. The dough is dense and bready without the lovely chewiness I'd like in a thicker pizza. Most definitely not a fold and eat NY style pizza as I know it. The pie is huge and can probably feed 4-5 people easily. The topping on our pepperoni pie was good and I can see how some people like the simplicity of it, but the dough texture is just not to my liking. I think it really comes down to personal preference. Also seeing other people's photo, I wonder if we got a slightly unusual one. In any case, start with a slice and see if you like it.

I'll keep this short.. but NOT so sweet. My friend & I got an extreme case of the bubble guts after eating there this past Saturday 7/28/2012. I barely made it home & had my poor friend coaching me to "breathe" like I was having a baby the whole way home. A little while later, my friend was in the bathroom as well. I used to love this pizza. I had to literally use every seasoning they had & it took adding salt to actually make a difference. I will never go back.

Yummy family pizza joint. You get what you pay for here. As far as cheap family pizza goes this is definitely one of the best ones. They're also super friendly which is a nice touch to the otherwise horribly rude neighborhood. Love this place and will definitely come back!

Great taste, soft but cracks crust quality, speedy service. Just moved to the hood here and this will be my go-to spot for a slice. Went in the other day and got a slice, 4 garlic knots (top notch), and a soda can all for just $6.

My favorite cheese slice in PLG. Excellent garlic knots. Superb customer service.

One of the things I love about Brooklyn is that you can still find old school pizza joints complete with original owner. Love that. While I wanted to love their pizza, I mean who doesn't love the grandpa behind the counter, their slices just didn't do it for me. It lacked flavor and I found the sauce to be maybe a bit sweet? Wasn't the kind of flavorful pizza I'm used to. One good thing though is that the slices are big. I ordered two and could barely finish the second slice. Was so full. Who ever thinks this spot makes better pizza than 95% of the places in NYC is seriously lacking tastebuds. Trust me, I grew up in NYC and there are way better places out there. I may be new to this neighborhood, but I know my pizza. Sigh, I hope there are better options out here.

Best NY style pizza in the neighborhood. Really great price point too. They're cash only, which is kind of annoying, but it's worth it. The sauce is delicious. The best part is definitely the crust. The crust is really tasty and chewy. One of the few pizzas where I was looking forward to eating the crust while eating the slice.

An old style pizza joint with brown laminate booths, red tile on the floor and friendly service, this place definitely wins as the place to go for a slice if you're in Lefferts Gardens. The sauce could be spicier for my taste, but overall the pizza's good, and probably the best in the neighborhood (I haven't tried them all yet). Nice cheese that has a good stringiness to clumping ratio, juicy but not greasy, and the crust is crisp yet not too thin. Too bad they don't deliver.

Just moved to New York, so don't hold me as an authority on "new york" pizza. But I know good food, and I love pizza, and know good pizza. The place seems to be run by an older couple, and they look a little tired... The service was normal (fine). The menu is perhaps lacking a bit of creativity (just the basics here, no whitestone, pesto, etc.). The pizza itself (just a cheese slice as it was my first visit) was good. Good flavor, cheese and sauce had no problems with flavor or freshness. The dough was ok, crispy, but perhaps a little too consistent, if that makes any sense. I like a few more bubbles in the bread here and there, a few pockets of extra crispyness, etc. That was lacking a bit. But not bad overall.

This place should be officially landmarked. Same location for 75 years. Same owner for last 30. Same pizza that you just can't get anymore in nyc. Do yourself a favor and get a pie.

This is what pizza should be. A slice. Perfect sauce / cheese / crust ratios. You got yer slice... and that's pretty much your choice. Maybe you want pepperoni. Maybe you want sausage. Maybe you want a whole pie. But basically, you got yer slice. Family Pizza is the pizza I missed the entire time I lived away from NYC. I am so grateful my brother lives in the neighborhood.

I've been coming to this pizzeria,since I was a kid,back when there was a laundrymat,where the Popeyes is located,the pizza has always been great,the proprietor still yells at me as if I'm still a kid,this pizza joint practically raised a neighborhood of children,I take my son here for pizza all the time,I guess you can call it a landmark location,they have seating,there's usually parking within two blocks either direction,I like my pizza extra crispy,with sausage,they always get it right,this pizzeria is an accurate representation of what it means to be a Brooklyn pizzeria,there are a considerable amount of pizza joints on Flatbush av,now,there's even "designer pizza" at two locations within a block of family pizza,I've tried one,all I have to say is that neither jerk chicken or salted cod-fish belong on a pizza,that's just this yelper's opinion after satisfying my curiosity about the aforementioned,some fusions are nice and some are just sacrilege lol

Best pizza you're gonna get in this neighborhood. Also always satisfies my cravings. ($2.50/plain slice)

By far, one of the best pizzas I've ever had. Strange, being that it is located in a largely Caribbean neighborhood. This is one of those small businesses that you want to support!

so good -- great owners. The pizza is fast, hot and always tasty. Great leftovers too.

This is a solid old school pizzeria, definitely a place worth trying if you are in the area. Its not the best pizza but its pretty darn good.
