Can you order only one slice, or do you have to get a whole pie? Edit: answered, thanks everyone!

Whole pie. Even if you want a slice... Eat one and freeze the rest. Have backups

Can you get your email

?, did you imply internet access at this location?

Do you sell pizzas by mail? (Online)

I do not think so; they do not deliver locally so mail would be out of the question.

Do you serve gluten free pizza? Thanks

Nope. This place has been around since the stone age... A better question would be "Do they use paper money yet?"

The pizza, to be clear, is good, maybe even very good. Maybe great. But what distinguishes this place its its complete and total lack of affectation. There’s one thing in the menu: pizza. No salad. No dessert. Pizza. Oh, and there’s actually no menu, just a sign board. And the servers are kind of rude. And it’s across the street from a body shop. THEY DON’T MAKE PLACES LIKE THIS ANYMORE, places that have no apparent interest in evolving into something better. The pizza, however, is pretty good, made with high quality ingredients and with a nice crispy charcoal toasted crust. It’s not Pepe’s aPizza, but it’s still damned good and I’m glad we stopped by.

Pizza was good, but not much better that most Neapolitan places. The fresh mozzarella made in the store is definitely nice. Service was borderline indifferent. It's nice that it's an old school place but servers sitting at customers tables ignoring the rest loses the charm pretty quick. Seems to always be a wait but that's a function of popularity, the guy making pizzas was cranking them out as fast as he could. Price is based on reputation more than what it really is.

Great place!! Pizza is incredible and the taste is really worth the wait. Yes!! There is at least an hour wait outside (if you are lucky could be less) and an hour wait inside (if you are lucky and they don’t have lots of orders to go) you will be getting your pizza quick. However, this is a great spot to eat but be prepared for some hold time.

Don't get me wrong, the pizza was actually quite good. Ordered a large pie for me and my wife and it was delicious. The sauce, the crust, the cheese, were all on point. The negative was that we waited more than 2 hours, first on a long line stretching out on the sidewalk on a hot summer day which barely moved. We got seated mainly because we were a party of 2. People who waited in front of us because they were a larger party probably waited for 2 hours outside. we ordered our pie and then waited an additional hour for that to show up. Despite the pizza being amazing, the logistics of their pizza making is horrendously slow. I dont think they even started making our pie until about 15 minutes before they served it. I'd say go during off peak time and prepare for a wait. I don't think I'll be going back. There are better options with much shorter waits that are equally as satisfying.

You’ve likely read that Totonno’s has some of the best pizza in America. What you read is true. In fact, everything you’ve read, from how amazing the white pizza is to how busy it is to how surly the owner lady is — every bit of it is true. And it’s worth all your time and effort and money to try it. You will not be disappointed. And if you are, you did it wrong.

Went here on a sunday, relatively relaxed . Things worth remembering , bring cash & this is not slice spot ! Also understand that if you are eating in , they will ask you sit somewhere and you will order around the time you are provided with napkins, silverware and a cup. Pizza was solid, the sauce was on point , a tad bit sweet but also savory and the mozzarella had a nice stretch. Overall enjoyable experience the pizza maker hand delivers your pizza to the table, Cookie is still waiting on tables and is my favorite type of direct / doesn't have time for bs kind of personality.

This place took about an hour to make our pizza. The staff was also less than friendly and there was not nearly enough seating. Even with all that, I must say, BEST PIZZA I HAVE EVER HAD!

Best pizza in Brooklyn in my opinion. Crust has a great flavor and is chewy and crunchy. Lots of cheese and sauce is sweet and delicious.

Fantastic Pizza, great history. Only knocked it down a star because we waited about an hour for our pizza and service was not great. I would go again though, worth it.

Great NY pizza with excellent crust. However, very simple toppings. Worth checking out. I've been to Italy so I really respect fresh, clean ingredients but something was missing to elevate it higher (five star)

Honestly? More delicious than I expected. I ate 5 slices of the regular. The fresh mozz is so good. I'd say it's one of the best pizzas I've ever had. Also, the waitress was a dime. Would recommend to anyone wanting a true Italian American experience.

Appreciate the history but our experience was not good. Did a long trip to try one of the best rated pizzas in NY but were disappointed with the service and unfortunately the pizza was burned. The sauce was good and I liked the fresh mozzarella but the crust was black and thry served it just like that. We waited a long time to get our food and there were only 2 tables.

This was a great pizza. I did have the fortune of getting the last pie of the day. There was apparently some sort of issue with the oven so the shop had to stop selling early the day I was there - understandable, but the staff just told people "we're closed" instead of explaining the situation, which made multiple customers upset. It was very uncomfortable to watch as I chomped down on my crispy, melty, delicious pizza.

Good Pizza, love the dough and crust. You may a wait a while, but it's a nice homey feeling to it. The slice progressively gets better with each bite. No my preferred option of cheese, but it was that good that I didn't mind. Also the restaurant itself is quite small but welcomes you with its history. Be warned for newcomers, it's not a traditional pizza spot. Meaning you are not getting individual slices. I'm sure you'll enjoy it however 👍👍

Widely regarded as the best pizza place in America, and with good reason.I had a holiday to New York and Totonno's was top of my must eat list, it does not disappoint with a pizza that is beautifully light and crisp with tomato rich and fresh and cheese that was both sharp in flavour but stringy enough to satisfy the kid inside.The décor is a magnificent collection of newspaper cuttings, signed pictures and adverts making you feel that this is clearly not a flash in the pan place. Totonno's is proper pizza history (Google it) and their stubborn resistance to change is a joyous stance. They make pizza as they always have done, and when the taste is as good as this may they long continue. Thank you Michael and cookie.

Old school italiano pizza place. No fancy bells or whistles. Great traditional think crust pizza 🍕 be prepared to wait for a table outside. We waited over an hour. It’s kind of part of the experience lol. Get in line before 7:30pm to guarantee you’ll be seated.

I have come here many times and I have to say although the pizza is amazing. The price is just not justifiable for any pizza. There any many pizza shops in NY popping up all over and you can get a pie for half the price for the same quality. I do think that if you are visiting NY, particularly Coney Island, you have to try Totonnos. It's a classic and old fashioned NY pizza that I think is a must on any To Do list. They've done things the same way since day one and it's been perfect. If only the pies were a little bit cheaper I would come here everyday.

Pizza is totally out of this word good! I am also very happy with the service, it is super old school and real deal Brooklyn - they don't mess around! Totally worth visiting from Manhatten specially as a day-trip to Coney Island. You won't find many pizza places like this, and it is no doubt ten pizza shops in NYC!!

Pizza was ok. The sauce was the best part, but it was very basic - this is not a problem but then it makes me wonder what the price of the pizza is going in to, because for average pizza there a dozens of places in brooklyn that are cheaper and faster. Service took about 30 minutes, and I had gotten there right at opening. The price was about 18.5 (20$ after tax) for a small pizza which I was able to easily eat by myself. Large was 20$ (22$) after tax. Seating inside was pretty dismal - there were several VERY large tables, but if you had a party of two, you end up using a large amount of real estate in the building. Last problem - a cash only business. This is the 21st century, and with how much traffic this store gets, its time to invest in a card reader.

you go for the pie, not the service. In fact, grumpy service is part of the folklore. The lady owner is the niece of the original Tony and she is just carrying on her uncle's grouchiness. Flatter her and your pizza will be right out!

I almost left the Coney Island Boardwalk Subway Station when my phone notified me of a restaurant I wanted to try. Upon my arrival I could hear a child's excitement as his father told him they'd be eating Totonno's! I just managed to beat the lunch rush as at least 15 people came in after I placed my order. When my pizza arrived every other patron drooled as steam evaporated from my freshly baked pie. I burned my mouth but it was absolutely worth it. It's not a inexpensive pizza but well worth the cost especially if you traveled around the country like me.
