I was hitting a Metal show at the nearby St. Vitus Bar for the band Into Eternity and after catching up with the group for a little while on their RV, the need for something to eat took over me. I was told that the band had eaten earlier in the day so I was on my own in the quest. I asked one of their ardent fans to join me so they could all decompress a little more before the show and down Manhattan Avenue we wandered.
On the corner of Green St. we spotted Triangolo Pizza and ventured inside. It sure smelled nice and that is always a good sign in a pizzeria. Their Sicilian pie looked nice as did the conventional round pie so I ordered a square corner and a slice to get an idea of how they each were. To put it simple, they were both very tasty. Adding a small drink to the mix ran me just over five bucks and my two companions also seemed to enjoy theirs. As we chatted in the seated area I mused aloud at how most of the band had never tried NYC pizza before even though some of their number had been to this part of the world a few times (they are from Canada), it was still a mystery treat to their palates.
With that being the case, the plan to bring them back a pie to the RV was in motion. They were pleasantly surprised when we returned with it and three members immediately indulged and confirmed our own pleasure at the skills of the establishment. So kudos to Triangolo Pizza for not only impressing some well versed in pizza NY natives but also for making a bands visit to our neck of the woods more memorable. Give this place a shot if you happen to be in Greenpoint for Saint Vitus Bar, or perhaps a mission impossible visit to The Thing.
Triangolo Pizza is just around the corner, and it's a fine place to grab a slice of pizza, but there isn't anything special that stands out about it. They are cash only too, so come prepared, or you'll leave hungry. The guys working behind the counter weren't super friendly and didn't explain what anything was. After reading several Yelp reviews, I wanted to try the Grandmother's slice, and I had read they were rectangular, so I pointed at some pizza thinking it was that. It ended up being the Sicilian. I guess I could have asked, but the guy was kind of awkward. I also tried a chicken ranch pizza slice. Both slices were just okay, and nothing to write home about.
Absolutely fantastic pizza!! You can always tell how a pizza place is based on how good their plain slice is & theirs is fantastic because it's thin, crisp, & has the perfect ratio of sauce, cheese, & seasonings. I also had a white slice & it was also sublime. I read that their pepperoni pinwheels are really delicious so next time I will definitely be sure to grab one of those as well. The gentleman the counter are very friendly & this is the epitome of what one might envision when they picture a New York old school pizza place. Just awesome stuff!!
Great pizza, great guys behind the counter, and a great location in Greenpoint! I wish it was open all night for when I'm craving latenight food after the bars.
I love Triangolo — without a doubt the best pizza in Greenpoint. This place was a mile from my apartment, but I made the walk often (and happily!)
I've never had a bad slice here. My favorites are the Grandma and Sicilian slices — always done to perfection! The pizza crust is phenomenal, crispy at the bottom but chewy (in a good way) in the middle. Awesome sauce. Awesome cheese. AWESOME GARLIC KNOTS! Seriously, I love the garlic knots here and they have never let me down. Super garlicky, never dry, and they'll give you warm sauce if you ask nicely (: the guys here are also friendly which adds to the experience. Keep it up! People love it here.
I'm not sure if the fact that I was super hungry had anything to do with it, but my slice was absolutely delicious. The perfect combination of sauce, cheese with a crispy bottom and just enough crust.
I also tried the ziti chicken cutlet parmigiana and it was just as tasty. The portions are pretty big and can be shared.
It's definitely the best pizza/pasta I've had in Greenpoint.
Great reviews led us here but the slices were a blah letdown.
Clean and mean pizza slice. If you don't want to be disappointed, go here. Standard slice prizes too and plenty of specialty options!
Cash only.
