Editorial Review for Brooklyn Pizza Co – by Karina Dominguez
The Scene
This touch of New York attracts the usual young, artsy crowd that hangs out on busy 4th Avenue. Order at the counter and watch your pizza being hand-tossed and baked in the stone oven. The small, brightly painted dining room holds mismatched tables and provides a view out onto the street--a perfect spot for people watching. Piped-in jazz and acid jazz complete the funky atmosphere.
The Food
Choose from imaginative calzones, pastas and heroes filled with various meats, cheeses and veggies. The Roast Beast hero tops roast beef with Provolone, horseradish, mayonnaise, lettuce and tomato for a full and hearty sandwich. For vegans, a cheeseless veggie calzone stands out among the vegetarian fare. The real draw, though, is the pizza: from regular pies, deep-dish, and square Sicilians, all come in one size--16 inches. Choose toppings from the standbys (pepperoni and mushrooms) or more adventurous items (potatoes and jalape?os).

I lived in Tucson for 5 years and Brooklyn was my favorite for awesome pizza and garlic knots. I make a point to go there every time I visit Tucson. The sauce is perfect, the cheese is just greasy enough but not too much, and the crust is not too chewy to crunchy. When I was in college, there were many attractive young men who worked there which added appeal to the place. ;) Now it's mostly girls. Just an aside. ;)
Pros: Wonderful pizza and garlic knots

Having lived in Lower Manhattan NYC, I can say that this is some of the best pizza I have every eaten. They make your food to order. You give your name (clean up those outstanding warrents first!) and they will call you when you oven-fresh slice is ready. Every thing that I and my friends order there is yummy! Staff is civil and the place is usually crowded, which is a good sign.
