Sat in the front booth table on a Monday after a casual bike ride. We ordered the pollo salad with breadcrumbs and green goddess dressing and the carbonara pizza (white pizza with egg) - I would recommend 2 eggs for future. The pollo salad was delicious and hit the spot! Re-ordered it several times as takeout and it has been delicious but the chicken has been inconsistent. The first time dining in, the chicken was flattened and crispy. Other times it has been piping hot but not as crispy. The overall flavor is consistent though.I'm just going to have to ignore the B rating. There is plenty of seating indoors and out in the garden, which is a lovely option during warmer months. A fan!

Got takeout from Ogliastro on Valentine's Day and was pleasantly surprised! The restaurant itself was bustling--classic NYC vibes with bar seating and cozy low tops. Definitely a spot I'd love to visit in person.For takeout, we had the Barbabietole (beets)--honestly, just okay for me. Probably a better dish when plated properly, but in a takeout box, it felt a little dainty and underwhelming.Now, the pizza? Absolute winner. The Salsiccia d'Agnello was a standout--house-made lamb sausage that was super unique and full of flavor. Definitely not your typical slice! The Coppa was a solid red pizza, hitting all the right notes. And as a fun Valentine's touch, they made the pizzas heart-shaped, which was an unexpected and adorable detail.I called to order (as suggested on their website, probably to avoid third-party fees), and everything was smooth. Would definitely return--next time, dining in to get the full experience!

Ogliastro is a really cozy restaurant! My friend and I enjoyed the ambiance a lot and it waa great place for us to sit down for a nice meal. The Rucola e Pera salad was my favorite, every bite had a nice mix of ingredients and the pizza croutons were a fun add! The Carciofi pizza and shishito peppers were also great. I don't believe I've tried fior di latte (the cheese on the pizza) before but I enjoyed it a lot! Last but not least the service was great, would definitely come back for a cozy meal!

Pretty good pizza. We got it to go but the ambiance looked cool inside. Might return for a happy hour.

This place was so good!! Me and my sister shared their Melanzane pizza which is a white pizza with roasted eggplant and pepper, garlic, basil, and ricotta. We also shared a shirley temple which wasn't what I was expecting but really amazing regardless. Would def go back!

we had a great experience at ogliastro. the service was really good. i dont think they have reservations but when we came in on a tuesday they could seat us easily. we split the cavolfiore (cauliflower) as a starter which was good. for mains i got the siciliana salad with a side of grilled chicken and my mom got the pollo salad. the flavor combination on the siciliana salad was amazing! also their grilled chicken was super delicious as well. i will deff be coming back.

Ogliastro is a solid restaurant that serves good pizza and more in a cozy, welcoming ambiance.What I like about Ogliastro is that they have an extensive pizza menu that, alongside classic pies like pepperoni, meatballs, arugula and prosciutto, mushrooms, etc... they also have inventive pies such as clams and shrimp, homemade lamb sausage, or pancetta and potatoes. You can also build your own pie with the ingredients listed under "The Constructivist" section of their menu, which sounds fun!And if you would like something else than pizza, their extensive menu offers a lot of side dishes such as burrata, meatballs, marinated artichoke wrapped in speck, baby broccoli with anchovy and pecorino, roasted cauliflower, roasted figs, and more. I haven't tried it (yet), but their Oli Burger with short rib and brisket blend with dry aged fat and Raclette cheese sounds amazing.Their salads are also great, such as Rucola e Pera (pear, arugula, frisée, gorgonzola, pizza croûtons), Barbabietole (charred baby beets, beet leaf pesto, whipped goat cheese, pine nuts, Campari sauce), or Ogliastro (Tuscan kale, guanciale, ricotta salata, pine nuts, tomato confit vinaigrette).One thing to keep in mind is that service is a bit slow, so if you come here with a hungry small child, you may want to have some snacks at hand.They have several cocktails ($14; $11 for HH[1]), and 12 rotating beers on tap.This is a great dinner option after visiting nearby Brooklyn Museum[2] and/or Botanic Garden[3]. I'm a fan.-------------------[1] HH: Monday to Thursday 5- 7 at the bar only.https://www.ogliastropizza.com/happy-hour[2] https://www.yelp.com/biz/brooklyn-museum-brooklyn-2[3] https://www.yelp.com/biz/brooklyn-botanic-garden-brooklyn-2

Came in by myself after checking out the neighborhood and had such a good time. Got there in time for happy hour, so I sat at the bar and chatted with the bartender. He was so knowledgeable about the menu, the owners and the restaurant. I had such a great time learning about the place. From the HH menu, I went with this lovely women owned winery's Rosé. It was amazing! Ended up getting two of them and a glass of red from the same brand after.I wasn't super hungry so I only ordered the burrata app. Absolutely delicious!!! Could have licked the plate.Can't wait to come back!

I was anticipating coming here after the brooklyn botanical garden light show! Then before, two hours of closing they rushed us out and then I asked my food to go and this is what they gave me! This is how much they rushed us out the pizza boxes were inside out!!!! I ordered three pizzas a salad and multiple drinks. That is unacceptable. I spent well over $200 at this place. I'm embarrassed for this establishment. I won't come back ever. This is terrible! I am shocked at the non attentiveness I was treated just because you were closing "soon". Shocking!

Hands down the best gluten-free pizza I've ever had. And I don't even avoid gluten - it's just my better half that orders GF! Quite amazing...Everything else we've had has been great too -salads, drinks - but the pizza is terrific.
