Totonno's
4.2$$· ModerateIconic Coney Island pizzeria serving traditional coal fired pizza since 1924.
Founded in 1924 on Neptune Avenue in Coney Island, Totonno's is one of New York City's most historic coal-oven pizzerias. Renowned for its delicate thin crust, fresh mozzarella, and sweet tomato sauce, this institution remains an essential pilgrimage site for pizza lovers. The restaurant operates on limited weekend hours and currently serves takeout whole pies.
Expert notes
- The place uses the passed-down family recipe and traditional coal-burning brick oven to maintain the quality and pizza making tradition. The place is packed with tourists on the weekends, locals go for lunch on the weekdays. Margherita is their famous pie but white pie (may not in the menu but check with the server) is equally delicious. Some think it may even be better.
