Pizza D'amore

Located in the middle of a relatively "sparse" area of Sheepshead Bay, this pizzeria does not attract a copious amount of crowds - which is positive in my view because the atmosphere typically does not get tainted with dystopian and rowdy clientele. Instead, the vast majority of the clientele here are really down-to-earth and pleasant to be around with. Speaking of the atmosphere, this is where Pizza D'Amore really shines relative to other local pizzerias in the area - the ambience is very warm and homely. It has a cozy and cute dining room located in the front that is perfect for dining with a date or family - furthermore, a very spacious room that is plastered with classical Italian decor is conveniently located in the back for parties of all occasions. When it comes down to the food, Pizza D'Amore definitely does not disappoint. The Rigatoni al Fungi and Meatball Parmigiana entree which my party feasted upon last week was so exceptional that it even rivals that of other high-end Italian eateries in the area - especially from a value perspective. Finally, the service was on-point and very satisfying. Luigi, the owner, is a very diligent and compassionate individual - he will make it his best interest to accommodate and please the clientele, whether they are new or returning. Connor, one of the waiters, is also very attentive and efficient. My only "complaint" or feedback for this place is that the house / disco / dance music that currently plays in the background should be swapped for soft lounge / ambient / jazz tracks. Other than that, this establishment is a true "hidden gem" in its own right.

In comparison to the other d'amore on mill avenue, the one I personally favor the most, this one was mostly the same but has slight differences. First the vodka sauce, in my opinion wasn't really vodka sauce. As you can see in my picture it wasn't pink, it was like orange, nor did it taste like vodka sauce. That would be my only compliant. The sauce was still amazing, just wasn't vodka. Second, Freid chicken, Fried veal, and all the paste was amazing. Alfredo sauce was a bit different but still amazing. This one had a little hint of green, maybe it was parsley or something. Also the rice ball tasted almost the same as D'amore on mill ave. Triangle slice was served hot and tasty. Dessert menu I added to my pictures and was quite reasonable. All in all, it was amazing and a place I wouldn't mind returning to and would most likely refer a friend to. Again, if you want perfect everything from pasta to sauce to any other Italian dish, go to Mill Avenue.

Delicious food! (lobster ravioli, penne vodka and amazing focaccia bread) and good service.

Love their grandma pie. Very flavorful and thin crust with a crunch. All their food is good.

We had a last minute large group of 8 pop in for lunch and boy were they busy. This team works hard. The food came out relatively quickly and hot. Servers were great and attentive even if they were juggling regular customers and the birthday party they had in the back.
