Mister Phil’s Pizza

There is good pizza everywhere in this part of Brooklyn. Mr Phil’s is not good pizza. It was a soggy, greasy mess. This place was probably the WORST pizza I have ever had in Brooklyn — such a disappointment. I won’t be back.
I came in here on Saturday afternoon for a quick slice with my fiancé. We were running errands and hadn’t eaten since 8am and a slice seemed like a good way to hold us over until dinner. I ordered 2 plain slices and my fiancé had a Sicilian and a pepperoni pinwheel. My slice was 3 stars — average… waaaay too oily though. However my fiancé’s pizza? There was virtually no sauce on the sicilian slice; it tasted like it had been out the entire day. The pinwheel was MICROWAVED (why, when there is a hot pizza oven in the same space, I have no idea!!) and for some reason also had ham in it when we were told it came with only pepperoni and mozzarella. My pizza came with a free fountain soda, but shocker, they were out of cups, so I had to buy a drink. Not worth my money and definitely not worth my business!

Seriously folks, sadly this might be the worst pizzeria in Brooklyn and quite possibly all of New York. God awful reg pizza slices. Terrible and served luke warm. Dingy inside, I think they have given up. Very bad, avoid.

I am a big pizza lover. I’ve eaten pizza from establishments all over the New York area, especially Brooklyn and Manhattan. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, compares to Mister Phil’s Pizza. It is always super fresh and never soggy. It is obvious that they use high quality ingredients. Its most outstanding feature is the cheese. It is so flavorful and almost makes the pizza taste like a four cheese pizza rather than just plain mozzarella. I am addicted to Mister Phil’s Pizza. If you haven’t tried it, you are missing out on the best pizza in New York.

This place is brutal. I work a block away. Everyone avoids it. Very bad.

I’ve lived in Brooklyn my entire life and the most disappointing part is that all the good pizzerias have gone downhill. I like mister phil’s though, it’s not the absolute greatest slice you’ll ever have, but it’s better than most places around here. I just add a little oregano and it’s good to go. Plus their family special for 21 bucks is an excellent deal if you’re feeding several people. The heros are good, I usually save them for lunches the next day.

I come here often. The pizza varies from good to very good. It’s a small little neighborhood joint. The Daily before 4pm Specials (3 slices and a fountain drink /​and any footlong hero for $ 5 is great. A veal parm hero for 5 bucks can not be beat!

If there’s one thing I look forward to, it’s their chicken. The chicken parm hero is delicious and the sauce is beyond greatness. And for $ 5.50 during lunch hour is a great deal you don’t want to miss. Mr phill’s always has some type of sale going on and if you pay attention to it, it makes your meal that much better

If you’re in Brooklyn, it’s really not that hard to find a neighborhood pizza joint. You know, the type of place that’s slightly grungy but homey, where service drifts somewhere between carefree and lazy, and the slices hit the spot when the craving hits. Mister Phil’s Pizza is a recent discovery for me and it’s consistency makes me a fan.
The part that makes me feel most at home? The young guys that work there. The Brooklyn accents, the hair… very Bensonhurst.
When you walk in, the bright lights, bare walls, save for some old photos and an old-​tv that plays whatever sporting event is on, and smell of garlic knots remind you where you are. There’s always some sort of deal going on and prices are cheap. Food takes awhile to come out, even when you order ahead, but the thin, crunchy crust is worth the wait. Food comes out piping-​hot and slices are substantial.
Garlic knots, my personal fave, are heavily doused with garlic and olive oil and are just chewy enough while retaining a sweet softness. Pass on the heroes; I tried the meatball and the chicken parm, and both are soggy and generic with a bland tomato sauce.
Still, it’s nice to have a reliable pizza place so close by that offers some major food.

mmm I love Mr. Phils! Pizza is amazing, and everyone is nice and knows you by name in there! In addition to the amazing pizza. the chicken caeser salad, chicken roll, and pinwheels are all sooo great too!

This is my favorite place to get pizza by the slice in all of Brooklyn. In a neighborhood that seems to change drastically every 5 years, Mr. Phil’s hasn’t. Perfectly crisp, using the right amount of cheese and sauce to give you the perfect taste. A lot of people have gotten upset with Phil’s for skimping on sauce, to which I say: welcome to Brooklyn. A real Brooklyn pizza is about pepperonis, and oregano, and oil. It’s about find the equilibrium between succulent and thin&crispy. This is a great Italian eatery owned and operated by the same Italian family as when I was a little kid. Mr. Phil’s never disappointing when it comes to providing a truly authentic NY pizza experience.
P. S. It’s cash only. That should come as no surprise to New Yorkers, but if you’re visiting the area you should know that the best food joints rarely take card.

Great food, great prices and friendly employees.

I love the pizza here only thing I ever had and they never let me down.

I came to this neighborhood the same year they opened, 1993. I have been a fan ever since!!! Great pizza and rolls! I highly recommend the chicken roll, grandma’s pizza and the gralic knots!!!

I ORDERED A LARGE PIZZA FROM HERE AND IT WAS NOT CRISPY. The cheese dips off the dough. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE FOR PIZZA. I’m never going back.

Mr. Phil’s is a neighborhood standard for me. I’ve been coming here for pizza and Italian specialties since they opened in 1993 (when I was a kid!) and it has remained the same high quality, unpretentious, straightforward fare since.
Their pizza is great — It’s your typical neighborhood slice (a bit greasy, but the crust is thin and crisp). Their Italian dishes and pasta are also excellent — Lasagna, Penne a la Vodka, Eggplant alla Parmigiana, etc. The portions are (of course) huge, the prices are extremely reasonable and it’s a reliable place for a satisfying bite to eat. There are a variety of specialty pizzas which are also worth trying.
There are tables and chairs to sit in and eat (still counter service, of course) and of course it’s a great choice for delivery. I can safely say that *this* is my favorite neighborhood slice place — Totally relaxed, no gimmicks, just good food.
