This is our favorite pizza and Italian restaurant in West Milford. Their grandma's pizza is our go-to pizza and their entrees are not only tasty but also good value for money. I always doggy bag my entrees and am able to make 3 meals out of it.

I aint eva had angel hair pasta like this with marinara and the delectable choice of herbs they use and garlic and cheeses. The side salads are bangin and come with garlic knots I honestly think this is the best angel hair I've ever had in my entire life! The garlic cheesy bread is sooooo good! That angel hair sent me to heaven.

Brooklyn Pizza was amazing! Best “grandma” pie around. My kids love the chicken bacon ranch pizza. Besides the pizza, their entrees are top notch as well. Large portions, and everything I’ve had so far was super fresh, including their salads. BYOB, and great staff. A must try.
