One of the city ’s original, coal-oven pizzerias , Totonno’s dates back to 1924. It still turns out those perfect, slightly charred, thin-crust pies with little in the way of toppings or fanfare. Read more

John Colglazier

We waited on line for 15 minutes and the pizza took an hour to cook, but it really was worth wait. The sauce, coal fired oven and handmade crust was perfection.

This century-old Coney Island pizzeria is one of New York's great cultural institutions. As Robert Sietsema notes: "This place is simply the best pizzeria in the world." Read more

This place can get really crowded during the summer, if it is during the Mermaid Parade , you probably wouldn't be able to get in. Off-season though, there is no line and fast service , excellent sauce!

Cole Kennedy

The crust is among the best I’ve ever had. The sauce and cheese are excellent but a few other legendary spots have it slightly better. But it’s still worth every minute you wait in line .

Top 5 pizzas in BK and in NY for hat matter! Cool retro vibe ...but you come here for the pizza not the place. Awesome crust fresh ingredients . Order a pie you won't take any home!

John Τσεντζελης

If you want some old school style brick oven pizza with some great flavor, you need to stop here. This place is definitely a gem that everyone should come to and enjoy some great pizza .

Rachel W.

Enjoy some of the best pizza in NYC and make sure to be nice and respectful to Cookie . I'm a fan of the peppers/onions topping.

My absolute favorite pizza on Earth (and I eat a lot of pizza ). Line can be long and employees won't take any sh*t. Totally worth it.

Jack Gashi

Great slice. Light, saucy, and some of the best crust game on planet earth. They'll bring it straight from the oven to your table, so let it cool for a second

Akshay Patil

Totonno's have a menu with two pizza sizes available. They do not serve single slices. They have choices of 8-9 toppings on it. They serve beer and soft drinks .Their pepperoni pizza was good.

Fodor's Travel

Thin-crust pies topped with fresh mozzarella and tangy , homemade tomato sauce , then baked in a coal oven , at Totonno's you're not just eating pizza , you're biting into a slice of New York history. Read more

Slice Pizza Blog

The plain pie is perfectly charred with a thin, crisp crust that bubbles and buckles in the heat of the coal oven , topped with a bright tomato sauce and sparingly applied dabs of creamy fresh mozz . Read more

Eater

The crust has a char that may surprise diners who have never tasted real coal oven pizza before, and the toppings are delicately applied. Read more

Valerie Seckler

A legend that lives up to its old school New York billing. Thin crust , flavorful sauce. Hurricane Sandy survivor. Visited w/friends after Coney Island rides. [Note: Pulino's, listed below, went out.]

Mary M Motta

this is my #2 pizza in the world! it's definitely worth the train ride to Coney Island to stop in for a pie ???? - come hungry!

ReALTO

"...nice thin crispy crust, sweet fresh mozzarella , and nice sloppy, salty sauce. It was perfectly greasy, without making you feel like you needed to wash your face after, and light enough to eat...: Read more

Village Voice

Pizzaiolos prep and fire pies for as long as there's dough available, which for us occasionally means confronting a locked door. But generations of New Yorkers haven't minded, and neither should you.

Eater

For over 90 years, this storied Coney Island pizzeria has been serving thin crust pizzas topped with a simple tomato sauces and patches of silky fresh mozzarella . Read more

Alex Still

Your patience will be rewarded, the pizza is exceptional. Definitely get a plain pie to experience the Platonic ideal.

Village Voice

Totonno's sports the best fresh mozzarella of any pizzeria in town . That this cheese is a little soupy, making the pie damp, is fine with us. Just grab a fork! Read more

Roger R

Top 5 pizza anywhere. This place defines NY pizza and is a must try along with the other greats.

BlackBook Magazine

In case you have a really rough night and wake up at the end of the line as the subway pulls in to Coney Island (don’t judge, it happens to the best of us), treat yourself to a slice of NY’s finest. Read more

rich masio

Get there b4 noon on Sat. Old school in that your toppings r limited to the core offerings, no bbq chicken . The center crust gets soggy which is the only thing separating this from the premier joints

Steve Kaliski

Classic cheese pie is excellent. The wait on weekends can be almost 2hrs.

Erica F

Cash only !!! By the pizza only!!! Worth it? Definitely. Delicious and light pizza with great balance between sauce, cheese , toppings and crust. Yum.

Carmen N

Classic. Nice crispy crust and excellent tomato sauce . No frills.

Penn Marchael

Fantastic pizza some of the best in NY. Great little spot to get mini bottle wine a pie and hit up Coney Island .

Nicole Solomon

If you're vegan , just get a cheeseless pie loaded with their excellent vegetable toppings. The sauce and crust are still To Die for.

B N

The crust is enough to bike 7 miles. A major staple in the Brooklyn Pizza Phenomenon. A booth , a simple pie. All you need for a stellar Saturday afternoon or Sunday, Monday, Tuesday...

Michael Monello

Screw the Rat Pack, this pizzeria has autographed pictures of The Ramones and Lou Reed on the walls. Best pie in the city hands down and well worth the trip to Coney Island .

Adam Kuban

Spend the dough and get extra cheese . It's fine with the regular amount, but the additional cheese makes a great pie excellent.

Serious Eats

One of New York's most renowned pizzerias . Incomparable New York-style pies on Coney Island .

NYC: The Official Guide

Whatever you do, DON'T ASK FOR A MENU. There are none, as Totonno's matriarch Louise "Cookie " Ciminieri will be quick to remind you. Just check the menu board in the back of the restaurant .

The Corcoran Group

A pizza worth the hour-long subway ride, and the wait at the coor – the margherita is simply amazing. The crust is flavorful and crispy .

Tom Walsh

Love the pizza here in Coney Island won a James beard award for their pizza and it's well deserved.

Epicurious

The pies there still reflect their roots in Naples with a thin but pliant crust, simple tomato sauce , and unspeakably rich mozzarella that tastes like it was made just hours ago—which it actually was. Read more

Sean Thayer

Not only was this the best pizza I had in NY, but Totonno's probably had the best people too. Thanks everyone!

Zayed Khan

Probably one of the best pizzas in New York , and therefore the world. Fresh garlic is a must.

Jen Chung

"Stellar coal-fired pies, though note that they're only open Wednesdays through Sundays, with nightly last seatings at 7:30 p.m.

Phil Toronto

Legendary NYC pie - pepperoni & sausage ✌????????

David Asabina

Survive the wait ????. They'll make it worth your while ????????

Aman Charyev

The tomato sauce is wonderful .

Clayton P

Good enough for one person to demolish at least four slices of your large pie. Holy pizza god for the win.

Mike Friedman

If you live in NYC and don't love this place, I think it's time for you to go.

Zach Harris

Try the red and white pie

Scott Kleinberg

The best pizza in New York hands down. Worth the trip from wherever you are.

Coney Island

Totonno's is consistently ranked among the best pizzas in New York City ! Order a white and a red. And remember: no individual slices, only whole-pie deliciousness.
