Cornmeal-crusted pizzas with Cajun toppings, vegan options
"If it’s a quick-fix you’re looking for, go to Two Boots, which has nine different locations all over town, and - between all the psychedelic and colorful design - always reminds me of my childhood bedroom, in the best way possible. There are nine different vegan pizzas on the menu, including the Vegan Mr. Pink (chicken, plum tomatoes, garlic, and Daiya cheese), the Vegan Tony Clifton (shiitake mushrooms, Vidalia onions, sweet red pepper pesto, and Daiya), and the Earth Mother (fresh spinach, roasted garlic, peppers, mushrooms, red onion, and marinara). A fun fact about the latter pie: it’s named after the one and only Bette Midler, whose NY Restoration Project (unrelated to the pizza spot) helped save the community gardens of the Lower East Side." - anna rahmanan

"He wanted pizza, and I was trying to figure out which pizza place made sense for him. I felt like Two Boots would be a very solid, nice pizza option. Sometimes in Brooklyn, these pizza places get so abstract with their pizza, it really stretches the definition of what pizza even is. Where it’s just crust, hot honey, and Brussels sprouts? It makes you think, philosophically, about what pizza is."
"A cheese and a white pizza with garlic, tomato, and spinach. Great! Great, great."

"I note the restaurant's first location opened in New York City's East Village in 1987 and has been described as a proud NYC institution as the brand grew into a wide network of slice shops across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Los Angeles, Nashville, and Jersey City." - Carla Vianna
