"The pizza pop-up’s brick-and-mortar spins full pies ($28–$33) and cheeky snacks—from a “cold ‘carbonara’” to battered, fried onion petals dubbed the “trademark infringement”—with a full bar and $12 martinis daily from 4 to 5 p.m." - Tierney Plumb
"Formerly a pop-up called Bad Cholesterol, Third Time’s The Charm is a sourdough pizza spot in Red Hook with pies as classic as a margherita, and as interesting as the White Lotus Season 2, with red onion, calabrian chilis, and pistachios. A few snacks round out the menu, like something called Trademark Infringement—essentially just a Bloomin’ Onion. Buckets of Miller High Life, pitchers of beer, and carafes of wine are available, as well as cocktails like the Wrong Island Iced Tea." - Willa Moore
"Brooklyn pizza pop-up Bad Cholesterol grew into a full-fledged restaurant this month as Third Time’s the Charm, from owner and chef Chris Milazzo, opened in Red Hook at 275 Van Brunt Street, near Visitation Place, on Thursday, October 16. The menu centers on sourdough pizza like a spicy margherita and mushrooms, with specials such as the White Lotus Season 2 (with Calabrian chiles, pistachio, blue agave, and red onions) and the Gowanus Goddess (a vegan pie with garlic slivers). Other dishes include the Trademark Infringement (basically Outback’s bloomin’ onion), chicken nuggets with a gochujang dip, and fries served with a spicy tomato jam. Currently, the restaurant is operating with limited hours, with its full-on opening starting on Friday, October 24. The approximately 2,000-square-foot space can fit 50 people, and there’s a heated, enclosed backyard. Reservations can be booked online, and bar seats are open for walk-ins. It’s open for dinner Wednesday through Friday and weekend lunch and dinner." - Nadia Chaudhury
