Brooklyn Pizza Factory on Vanderbilt

It would be so awesome if it were good, but I won't let myself get my hopes up.

I'm a little surprised someone would open a pizza place across the street from Amorina but I'll take it.

If you haven't tried Amorina's take-out slices, you really don't know what you are missing. Entirely different from their other pizzas or any other slices in town. Amazing stuff.

Like i said in the post about weathered up, why do we need another pizzeria??? Why in the world, you guys want a butcher shop and yet the mom and pops store are being driven out by a pizza factory, i rather go to Antonio's and support their amazing greasy pizza, we have alizeo, we have Franny;s, zaytoons, and olive vine do pizza, so why the hell in the world do we need another pizzeria on Vanderbilt...Hey you can even get a curry pizza on Washington ave and Bergen, this is getting out of control. Can some one come up with a unique business concept instead of bombarding us with more useless stuff that we already have around?? Hey how about another high end wine shop??

^^ That is no joke. The state of jeffrey releases you its delegates.

I'd say the only thing around here that rivals it would be Aniello's on 5th Ave and 11th St. - though i think they have closed up shop (anyone know what the deal was/is with them?).

Yeah, Gino's on Washington was my to-go spot for a regular slice, until a few weeks ago, when I saw not one, but TWO large cockroaches crawling on the wall while I was eating. I threw out what I had not eaten, and left. I know all restaurants in this town have pest issues, but if it's so out of control they're crawling around during daylight hours in front of customers....too hardcore for me. I love Amorina's slices, and will be happy to stick to those.

There are 2 pizzeria's going up now one next to Le gamin and the other one at Muddy , so there will be 3 pizzeria's plus zaytoon's pizza withinh 4 blocks of each other. So are where is the innovative thinking on this hood??

How is this any doing of "this neighborhood"? Did the neighborhood have a meeting and decide on a new pizza place? Funny, I thought that business owners opened businesses. Get off yer keyboard and innovate your own business.

Saw a big sign for this up today. I'm not enough of a pizza fan to be psyched about this... I'd rather have Sorrel back...

I'm gonna agree with the posters who mention the later closing hour
if your going to get more bars in the area you need something to snack on late night too... pizza and hopefully at least garlic knots certainly helps if you dont want a burger

yea. i am disappointed in this too.... i REALLY wish we had a good butcher and a good place to get fish.

PPG—maybe you can open a spot? we need more mavericks to do these things—open needed businesses in the nabe—and less people complaining about the lack of such establishments.

I'm just sayin...no offense to you...

Well, you see, if i had money to open a business, then I would open a butcher/fish shop. But since I don't, I will complain about the lack of such establishments all I want to.

You best believe I am going to eat there! I am all about supporting any local business. As dumb as it would be to avoid a new place just to be a jerk, I think it's just as dumb that we have 4 pizza places within a 5 block radius.

Wow. You're the third person to tell me about that snooty franny's experience.

I made the mistake of asking for onions on something once and if looks could kill, i'd have been dead, the way that waitress looked at me!

tried the Factory today for lunch and i have to say for all the talk about this place its nothing more than another pizzeria and not even up to Amorina's , Franny's or even Antonio's. Nothing spectacular about it, just another neighborhood boring Pizzeria, still going to Antonio's for their yummy greasy pizza!!
