Lucali

It’s all about timing, so they say (« they » being folk who’ve tried, and failed, to get a table) when it comes to Lucali, an unassuming-looking pizzeria in Cobble Hill that can command two-hour waits. Inside a former candy store, the softly lit restaurant has weathered walls, mismatched wooden chairs, and a touch of old-timey decor (vintage cash register, boxing gloves). The crew’s open, rustic kitchen is in plain view, so the whole restaurant can watch pies twirl and rise from the oven.
