Reinaldo Deliz GuzmanJune 24, 2013The fried squash blossoms with ricotta are to die for, and the broccoli pie is excellent, yes I said broccoli!!
im feelin the new location. way bigger. also, bucatini pasta is legit. i'd go for that over the pizza to change it up.
Everything is delicious here - but everyone should try the clam pie at least once.
Shawn ChengNovember 1, 2013Clam pizza is OVERRATED. Get the sausage pizza and shrimp spaghetti instead.
Travel ChannelNovember 17, 2010Don’t miss the amazing pizzas, pastas and house-cured meats at Franny’s. The eggs and spicy pickles and the prosciutto are not to be missed. – Adam Richman, Man v. Food Read more
You can't go wrong here, but here's my usual order: farro salad, some type of pasta (they're all great) and sausage or clam pizza. DO IT.
Kathryn DFebruary 16, 2017Excellent experience. Kale salad, hot pepper pizza both stood out from the crowd.
FunesMarch 28, 2016Do yourself a favor and leave room for the panna cotta. Holy crap! Finish off w/an espresso and some amari.
Joey XMarch 27, 2014The clam pizza is delicious in spite of being topped with the tasty but Ill-named "clam glaze."
Giulio del BufaloSeptember 22, 2013Food is amazing. Recommend the crostini to start and then both pastas and pizzas are excellent.
solid pizza, but the pasta dishes are on another level. Get one pizza and share it and get the other stuff, their version of linguini with clams is particularly good.
eddie brannanOctober 2, 2012The pig cheek terrine is amazing! If I could eat it every day I absolutely would. Pizzas are terrific too.
Wyatt FunderburkJanuary 3, 2015Everything is delicious. Amazing charcuterie program and the best pizza on the planet.
Janet LinMarch 11, 2017Their energy comes from con-ed solutions and is derived 35 percent new wind and 65 percent small hydro (according to menu)
Sandy CJanuary 7, 2017I wasn't blown away. We had the tomato sausage pie as well as the prosciutto pie. Neither seemed worthy of the $20+/pie price tag. The service was great though.
Natalia ShuriginaNovember 7, 2014Skip the salumi plate. The pizza is excellent and the panna cotta is beyond words.
BC 😎🎶May 25, 2012It's not just pizza. Loved everything on the menu I tried, especially the artichoke. Everything tastes amazing. I can't wait to eat here again!
Tarah FeinbergJuly 4, 2012Try the Clams, chilis and parsley pizza - Scrumptious thin crust wood-oven pizza. Perfection.
Franny takes local sourcing very seriously. Printed on the back of the menu is an extremely detailed roster of where the ingredients come from, all in the area.
Best Pizza in BK/NYC, don't forget to order the pasta, it's just as good as their pie!
One of the finest short Ital wine lists in the city. You'll make out like a bandit under $50. Stand outs: Giacosa Arneis, Occhipinti Alea Viva, Voyat Rosso Le Muraglie, Roagna Bianco, Fubbiano Pampini
Luna Putzulu aka "luna matto"August 8, 2014The most expensive & tasty *american appetizer-sized pizza. Awesome wine list.
Kiri MastersNovember 7, 2014Sandwiches are unbelievable... On the small side, so get something else if you're hungry.
geeJune 3, 2015The service was awful; hostess and server! The food, overrated. We had the zeppoli app and sausage and meatball pizza. It was good, but nothing to rave about. The crust was the best part!

If you've got room for dessert, the chocolate sorbetto (also available by the pint at Bklyn Larder) is amazing.
Sally YoonJune 1, 2012clam pizza, ricotta pie, Spanish rose wine, marinated string beans and housemade sausage
The clam pizza here is amazing. Clams, parsley, garlic and a whole lot of awesome.
One of my favorite places in brooklyn! Easily one of my favorite places in NY. Really just amazing pizza and the appetizers are excellent.
Zoe CareyJuly 14, 2016Just stopped for a glass of wine. Very nice, and good service, but not super cheap.
- Tarah FeinbergJuly 4, 2012Try the Panna Cotta With Cherries And Wood-Smoked Strawberries - Maybe the best I've ever had.

"You can actually split the pizzas if the sauce is the same. It's a great way to try whatever the special is with something from the menu!"
