Pizzetteria Brunetti

A simple authentic italuan restaurant with good food snd a SuperPizza.
The service is excellent and Giuseppe is a nr 1.
We will return for sure! Ee loved it

Fairly small, quaint pizza spot in the West Village. Tea’s pizza was a delicious blend of prosciutto and arugula. Rice balls were unique, and a crispy blend with melted cheese.

Best pizza I have had in a really long time, my kids and I went there and were treated like royalty. Pizza has a burned char that gives off a great taste.

My best experience with pizza in Manhattan. Highly recommend the Margherita Più. The staff is extremely friendly.
The place has limited seating capacity, so its better to make reservations before you go.

Amazing pizza… A new favorite! Everything was amazing… From the kids food to the adults!

I have traveled all over Italy and even had the pleasure of living in Rome and Sicily for a bit. This is some of the best pizza I’ve ever had in the states. The pizza is amazing. It is a bit pricey but well worth the price.

I went to this restaurant on a Saturday evening at 6 pm. We had reservations and sat right away.
We ordered a bottle of aglianco red wine. It was the special of the night and I was very happy about that because aglianco is usually hard to find. We ordered the meatballs, potato croquettes, and mixed olives to start. The appetizers were delicious. The potato croquettes came with this truffle buttery sauce, which was great.
The pizza I ordered was called the san Gennaro. It had Italian sausage, yellow and red peppers, and onions. My friend had the tea’s pizza which had prosciutto, arugula, truffle oil and cheese. Both pizzas were great. The crust was delicious.
Lastly, for dessert, we tried the Zeppoles with the orange sauce, tiramisu and this apricot pizza, which had ricotta and sliced almonds on it. Everything was great! I loved the tiramisu.
The service here was also very good. I would love to return! Make sure to make a reservation because it’s a small restaurant!

Quite possibly on the of the best Neapolitan pizza places in the city. Perfect crust, fresh ingredients, delicious pizza combinations. Staff is friendly and always hovering (in a good way) over the table to make sure we have what we need. My all time favorite pizza here is the caramelized onions with truffle. Other standouts are the arancini and Mama’s Meatballs (MUST ORDER)!

Excellent service, excellent pizza. This place is incredibly authentic — most of the people behind the counter are Italian, and the pizza tastes like I’m in Italy.

We popped in here on a Thursday evening as a group of 6 and found this place surprisingly quiet. We were able to sit in the back ‘garden’ area and although it is currently brisker in the evenings this time of year, they do have heat lamps going to keep it nice and toasty. The service was friendly and entertaining, so that is a plus when dealing with this wait staff.
Getting to food, we did an assortment of pizzas for the table to try and taste as many as possible. We went with the san gennaro (sausage, roasted peppers, ricotta) — it was well balanced and flavorful, the pumpkinhead (pumpkin, chestnut purée, onions, pork belly) — a bit heavier and you need to have a particular palate for this, the spicy soppressata which was hot and good, the margerita più (mozzarella di buffala) — simple but very fresh, tea’s special (arugula, burrata, proscuitto, truffle oil) — very good and flavorful, and the carbonara that was exactly that on a pizza which was good but a bit too runny for me. Overall, the pizzas were cooked well-​done as I asked and very good. Our favorites were the Tea’s and San Gennaro.
For sweets, we tried the tiramisu that was light but good, the zeppole with chocolate dipping sauce that you cant go wrong with and a chocolate cake that was a bit rich but good overall. It was still a bit pricey (2 bottles of wine for $ 100 which is average for 6 people) for the pizzas that came out to around $ 20/​each, after tax and tip we ended up paying around $ 60/​person. Overall, the pizzas were great and the with a service that you can’t go wrong with, I will definitely be back.
Buon appetito.

Being big fans of the original West Hampton Beach location, it was nice to see the expansion in the new West Village location. (And Bella the lovin’ oven)
So quick recap:
Westhampton Beach in MHO, made the best pizza in Long Island. My family has tried all their pizzas: Vongole (Their signature pizza made with fresh Long Island clams), Quattro formaggi, Funghi e Cipolle (mushroom with goat cheese), Spezie and of course the classic Margherita. All home run hits but the WHB location isn’t a real restaurant with a wait staff. Its more of a counter service close to the oven. It’s all good, lets see how the father/​son team do in the big city.
Lets start the clock because my family is inside and the parking garage rate goes up after one hour:
Walking into the space is warm and inviting. Lots of woods and mirrors makes the eatery inviting. My family is seated by the door (57 minutes left) and we’re looking at the menu. Great wine list as well the expanded WHB menu is making my heart beat faster.
The NYC restaurant is located in probably one of my favorite areas of NYC. My family came off the boat and they first settled in the east village. When I go to the West Village and see the Dutch cobble stone streets and brownstones, I feel pretty envious. Its so peaceful here.
We ordered sides of Mammas meatballs, Arancini balls (Rice balls) and a Carciofi salad. The salad has arugula along with Italian artichokes, taggiasca olives and topped with shaved Pecorino Romano and a squeeze of fresh lemon made this salad a home run hit!
The Arancini and Meatballs were on point, everything went down nice with our Italian wines. (36 minutes left)
Our two pizzas come out. I ordered my favorite WHB pizza for my wife who doesn’t like spicy pizza, the Funghi e Cipolle. Man. this pizza is large and in charge. Made with Sautéed shitake mushrooms and caramelized onions it’s infused over imported goat cheese and topped with honey truffle oil and fresh thyme. This pizza is worth spending the money for the extra hour in the garage!
I want to point out, the owner Jason of Pizzetteria Brunetti went to an prestigious pizza making school in Italy. The oven Bella is also from Italy and what they’re making here is nothing short of outrageous.
The second pizza, the Spezie is a spicy kicker! My son and I both like this pizza, made with sautéed broccoli rabe /​broccolini, spicy Italian sausage and creamy burrata cheese. This is another great pizza.
All said and done, we had a great meal in under one hour. I thank Jason for an excellent meal for my family as we head back to «Lawg Island»
Great meal, great staff and service. One of the best pizzas, now in New York City.

This is what ALL pizza should taste like. How will I ever eat dominos again?! This restaurant will be added to my list of favorites in the West Village.
The staff were super friendly, and the restaurant is super cute and cozy. It’s a great place for a date if you don’t think eating pizza is too messy. The only thing that may have taken away from the experience was that I was sitting right next to the door, which the waiters kept on opening /​closing to deliver food to the customers sitting outside. It was quite distracting at certain points.
For starters, my friend and I shared the rice balls and Caprese salad. Everything came out in what felt like less than 5 minutes. The rice balls were nice and cheesy, and the Caprese salad was very fresh. However, I wasn’t very impressed with the presentation of the Caprese salad. It looked like they literally threw a huge chunk of mozzarella and some cherry tomatoes together without any regard to the looks. I could have done that at home. For the $ 15 price, definitely not worth it. Save it for the pizza.
For our entrees, we had the San Gennaro and Vongole (signature). Both were super yummy! The San Gennaro tasted like what I expected, tomato sauce and sausage… BUT the Vongole was OUT OF THIS WORLD. If you try anything, please try the Vongole. The mix of cheese, clams and garlic was just too perfect.
The pizzas here are pretty pricey, especially given the size. The crust is extra big, so the pizza looks deceivingly large, but if you have an average sized appetite, you should definitely order one whole pizza for yourself. My friend and I finished our two appetizers and two pizzas, and we weren’t even ridiculously hungry to begin with.

Was actually looking for an Italian restaurant in the area without a reservation and wasn’t having any luck. We crossed the street and found this gem which would have to do.
And luckily we did because this place was amazing. I wanted a comfy warm homey meal with lots of flavor to make my tummy happy. That’s exactly what we got here. We ordered the Meatball sliders to start which were a yummy teaser as to what was next.
For the pizzas we ordered the Buffalo Mozzarella — Margherita and the Teas pizza. The teas pizza is so incredible you must order it, no questions asked. Both were so delicious and the whole experience from the service down to the food was exactly what I wanted from the Italian restaurant we weren’t able to find. The owner even welcomes each customer inside which is a nice touch.
Definitely will keep this place in mind. Highly recommended.

I really enjoyed the pizza here! Its the perfect thin crust that NYC is known for and the cheese is good quality (hard to find in NYC). We tried the Tea’s pizza (it has truffle on it, always a plus) and the margarita. Its the kind of pizza where you can eat the entire thing and feel ok about it. The staff is very friendly also. I wouldn’t recommend this place for large parties, but small groups are fine. Adriennes in FiDi used to be my favorite, but this place has quickly moved to first place.

There is no reason this shouldn’t be your favorite place for pizza… unlike any you’ve ever had, this place is true Italian deliciousness. Fantastic customer service, the owner Jason bends over backward to take care of your every need or wish. Affagato not on the menu? That’s ok, he’ll make that happen. Tonight we bellied up to the bar after a hot day of walking for a refreshing sparkling rose. Then we had arancini (rice balls) which were the BEST I’ve ever had, broccoli rabe, the marguerita più (housemade mozzarella), the Vongole pizza, my favorite and the zeppoles for dessert which are made with orange zest and fresh ricotta served with Nutella for dipping. These people make you feel like you are a guest in their home, a very welcome guest. The outside dining area is super cute and feels like a rooftop bar. Do yourself a favor and don’t skip Brunettis. You will not regret it!

I don’t even usually crave Italian/​pizza, but this place is PHENOMENAL.
Food: Their signature vongole pizza is SOOO GOOD. The spezie is also delicious and definitely packs a nice kick if you’re into spicy stuff. We also had meatballs as a starter and they were excellent as well. Note: The pizzas were a little on the smaller side, so order a few to share if you’re in a group/​hungry.
Service: The waiters here are so nice and accommodating-​though we arrived without a reservation, our waiter did everything he could to make sure we got the outdoor seating that we requested.
Environment: Super cute interior. Very Italian and homey vibe.
Overall a great place to grab some authentic Italian/​pizza in West Village.

Instantly you get smacked with the beautiful aroma of truffle. I love truffle.
Small but cute spot! They have a outdoor back patio and seats in the front. We had reservations and requested the front outdoor seating.
We started with the potato pancetta croquettes with truffle aioli (3 pieces). It was good nothing too special. The aioli made the dish.
Now the pizza: we wanted to split the Tea’s Pizza (prosciutto, arugula, burrata, gorgonzola, truffle oil) and Vongole (clam) pies but they ran out of clams! Upsetting. We’ll be back for that one.
So we opted for spicy sopressatta. Both delicious, had a nice char and chewiness to the dough. Generous amount of cured meats on each! For me it was a little on the salty side but the wine balanced it out.
Definitely hits the ‘I want some good late night Italian pizza’ spot.

Unbelievably good. MOUTH WATERING! This tiny spot holds huge flavors. Amazing pizza, salad and sandwiches. I love the lunch special but also a perfect spot for date night dinner. I really think this spot has it all. Great food, great beer and a cozy atmosphere.
The staff is attentive and lovely. Easy five stars. Try it once and you will be hooked!

A generous 3, aka a huge disappointment based on an excellent visit to their WHB original years ago. Went with the Lunch Soppressata Pizza ($ 10.00 — San Marzano tomatoes, house made mozzarella cheese, basil and soppressata) for Grubhub pickup* (no napkins, so ask). Pie had been languishing for a while despite arriving at the very beginning of the pickup window (the 25 – 35 minutes cited is RIDICULOUS for this style pizza, even if there had been a wait), but being a tad fresher wouldn’t have masked the mediocrity.
Enjoy it in Abingdon Square Park if the weather permits.
*Tried 2 days earlier and got a voicemail nearly 10 minutes later that they had closed due to emergency maintenance, yet wasn’t refunded until I contacted Grubhub myself.
Believe they still have a BBeats deal as of this review.

I just ate at one of the most hyped up pizza joints in NYC (don’t believe everything you read) and I have to say… Brunetti is so much better! We loved the crust, not to mention the interesting topping choices, and the ambiance was really comfy. Their staff is incredibly friendly, and don’t rush to get you out of there (even though it’s super small).
Can’t wait to go back!
