Why it is in the guide
Lucali is a Carroll Gardens pizzeria founded by Mark Iacono. The Brooklyn location's official page keeps the menu deliberately narrow: pizza, calzones and toppings.
The operational details are the reason to read before going. Lucali states that it takes no reservations, starts taking waitlist names at 4 p.m., is cash only and allows BYOB. It is a strong choice only when the group is comfortable building the evening around that process.
Best suited to
- A pizza-focused evening
- BYOB plans
- Groups comfortable waiting
Before you go
- No reservations; the restaurant says names are taken for the waitlist beginning at 4 p.m.
