  6. Di FaraRestaurant · MidwoodNearly every ingredient is imported from Italy, including the olive oil that douses every pie after it emerges from the oven before being crowned with freshly-cut basil.
  7. Krispy PizzaRestaurant · Dyker Heightsyou better believe this joint serves some killer thin crust pizza in Brooklyn.
  8. L&B Spumoni GardensRestaurant · Gravesendsplitting a pie at L&B Spumoni Gardens flagship in Gravesend is a quintessential New York experience.
