Motorino Pizza - 7.5/10

Brooklyn, NY - Restaurant Review by Vince Desi

FOOD: Personal Pie Neapolitano. The dough is great, in every bite you can taste the smooth rich flavor of Roman history. They use OO flour, buffalo mozzarella or their own fresh made mozzarella.

Motorino has earned a place on the top ten best pizzas list and for good reason! The toppings are plentiful and it's all cooked well in a wood fired brick oven. A real good pie!

PLACE: Rumor has it they’re moving to East 12th St, into Una Pizza Napoletana's old space.

COMMENT: Much better than the higher rated pies in NYC, if they could duplicate the smoky flavor of Bianco’s this would be amazing pizza, but I’m going back anyway.

UPDATE!

This is my third visit, and while not as good as my earlier visits, they still run a good shop. The pie brought to my table was different than the one I ordered, but it was still very good. The Staff is friendly and it was an innocent misunderstanding. When asked how everything was by Lucky the guy in charge, I shared with him my experience and history and he politely apologized, asked what I thought in detail, and offered a round of dessert on the house (we already at the pie J. It was good to see that some owner managers still care, and that he didn’t just ignore my opinion. I’m bumping this place up a notch to 7.5
