whats good cheap takeout/pizza joints in the north slope?

roma is quite tasty...

franny's is really good too. not sure if they do take out or delivery but the pizza is darn good.

two boots isn't bad either.

We like Roma's pizza and their food.

Anthony's up on 7th near 15th? Street or so also has great pizza-but, i would pick up from them and not have them deliver. Their food tends to be cold when delivered.

for other non-pizza related places, i like:

mr. wonton: chinese
oshima: sushi
oaxacan: chiles and chocolate

wish we had another thai option in the north slope. i'm not a fan of lemongrass grill at all. anyone know of any others in the area?

what brings armchair to one locale for a couple months?

The great cheap big meal is a sandwich from the Italian pork store on Fifth Ave and Garfield, a couple doors up from Bonnie's. They are big, they are delicious, they are around $7 each. It's two meals for regular mortals.

And of course Bonnie's.
And the soup/tamale place at 4th Ave (10/11th St), if you're mobile.

I'll second Bonnies for Burgers (done Medium, never ask for medium well!) Wings & crack-a-licious fries.

I think the place on 4th and 11th no longer has tamales, just soup.

I was underwhelmed by the Grand Canyon burger, but they do a nice breakfast.

what? since when??

We got burgers from them about a month ago and gross, tasteless, never again. I had a burger from them over the summer and experienced the same thing and tried again because I had such fond memories of good burgers.



no more burgers from them! But, yeah, the breakfasts are good.

Well I had one on Sat. night, and thought it was excellent.. don't know what makes one a 'cheeseburger connoisseur', but I lived in Omaha, NE for 2 years, home to the country's best beef, and I think that Grand Canyon's burgers could hang there. 8)

But then again, as they say, "There's no accounting for taste." I would invite Armchair to try for himself. The turkey club is good too.

Then again, I have no faith in Park Slope's taste in sandwiches ever since Charcutterie on Flatbush shut down due to no business. $5 for two inches of toasted pastrami, sauerkraut, and munster on a fresh kaiser, gee I think I'll go to Subway instead :roll: Way to go, Park Slope.



BTW, best pizza in the Slope - Pino's or Smiley's, hands down. I won't even mention Antonio's on Flatbush :oops: - I like my pizza made by Italians thank you.

Best Jamaican beef patties - Little Miss Muffin bakery on Park Pl. and Carlton. Christie's is for tourists.

Best 'faux-latin' food - Bogota on 5th and St. Johns - one of the few yup-flavored joints I will enter b/c the owners are a couple of kids from Brooklyn.

Best sushi - Taro or Gen (If you catch Gen on a fresh day), both Japanese run of course (no thanks Yamato)

Will post more if they come to mind.

I thought the reason they closed was because they lost their space -- maybe someone can chime in if they have more info. But Restless Native, the old owners of Charcuterie now own Mitchell's on Flatbush, and to my understanding they have a similar takeout sandwich menu there now (I've only done the sit-down meals there, which doesn't seem to include the sandwiches). So maybe you can get one of those pastrami sandwiches you've been missing after all.

You like your pastrami with sauerkraut and muenster on a kaiser roll, and you call yourself a "native"? :roll:

You didn't really write that Smileys has the best pizza, did you? That's one of the worst pizza joints in the Slope.

Yeah and your recommendations are?

While not in PS, hands-down best pizza is Sam's on Court Street. Now that's a real old school Brooklyn vibe place. Their spaghetti and meatballs are fantastic to!

I vote for Roma. While Pino's is a lot closer to me I don't mind walking the extra blocks.

Best plain slice: Joe's on 5th (betw 12 & 11)
Most underrated plain slice: La Bruschetta on 7th (betw 6 & 5)

ive been really happy with the new pizza place on 4th ave and union, right outside the R train station. it's called tomato and basil. in fact, id go so far as to say that it's the best pizza in the neighborhood.
