I am a fan of their pizza, but that's about it.
The guy I talked to behind the counter didn't have any answers to my questions about making pies vegan and which slices were already vegan. He had to ask someone else. Not sure if it was a language barrier or if he just didn't know. If he didn't know, someone should let him know so the business can run smoothly and not discourage customers.
The prices were really high, too. Two slices of vegan veggie pizza for almost $11. Yup, you read that right. It probably would've been more worth it to order a small pie for $14, but I couldn't finish it all. But, the pizza was good, so I will give it that. The crust held up to the abundance of veggies (zucchini, carrot, eggplant, etc.) that were piled on. The amount of cheese (probably Daiya from the texture) was just enough to not overpower anything.
Overall, a solid slice, but not something I would eat too frequently because of how expensive it is.
Now that I live within the delivery zone, I am BEYOND excited. I have already had it twice in 2 days–don't judge me, I just moved and still don't have a microwave or a working stove so it's justified!
Anyway, I love that they offer a home made gluten free crust (not the pre made frozen one size crust other pizza places sell) and have different sizes. The crust is thin, crispy and a perfect amount of chewy.
The toppings are always fresh and NOT skimped on. My go to is veggies with spicy Italian sausage and they include mushrooms (two types), green, red and yellow bell peppers, and broccoli. They are super generous in the toppings which make every bite a celebration for your tastebuds.
They have dairy free daiya cheese which is a super plus for my stomach. The best part is they charge a standard $3 more per pizza for vegan and GF instead tacking on two charges. On top of that, the woman who has taken my order twice is super sweet!!! I am in love with this place and will always be a fan!
Perfection in gluten free pizza. If you are searching for good gluten free pizza search no more – lean crust is the BEST. I've tried very few gluten free pizza options in NYC that can come close to Lean Crust. The first time I tried this place I honestly thought they made me a mistake and sent me regular pizza boy was I happy when I found out it's just that good.
Wings are good too. The only thing I'm bummed about is that there aren't Lean Crusts all over NYC!!! I want Lean Crust everyday!!!
I had what looked like an eggplant pizza. I quite enjoyed it, crisp, good cheese-to-topping ratio. One of the better pizza options in Fort Greene. Though my company quite thought the opposite, in their eyes, this place doesn't deserve more than a 1 star. I'm willing to give this place another try though, especially when its in the neighbourhood.
I'm not too much of a fan of the pizza. It's not bad, but not great either. The garlic knots are fantastic. I might visit again for those if I am in the neighborhood.
I'm so in love with their Portofino gluten free pizzas (mozzarella, tomato sauce, pesto, pine nuts) as well as their avocado-tomato slices. So good!
Pricey if you order delivery (can't order a slice, needs to be a whole pie if gfree) but if you come into the store, you can get gluten free and vegan slices to eat in or to go.
Delivery guys are very nice and prompt- one of them is already well known in our building that he's allowed to go up without getting buzzed in 😀
This is your typical no-frills pizza place with good pricing and some really excellent toppings, like the mutli-mushroom pizza with truffle oil slice for only 3$.
I cannot complain, and I think the prices are more than fair.
Please do not get the calamari from here. It's flavorless and tastes like cardboard. I've always gotten the mushroom pizza and wings which are pretty good. But the calamari sucks.
