Juliana's

THE BEST PIZZA!!! this is literally the best pizza i've tried in my life. The dough the sauce the cheese is magnificent. i don't know how they do it but it's amazing!!! recommend anyone to go if you're visiting.

Tucked in DUMBO, this place had a short line at 11:30am on a weekday and my party of 3 waited about 5 minutes in the scorching heat. It was worth it.
We had to go classic and got the Margherita Pizza with half of the pizza with sausage. It was... the best pizza I've had (that is not a Chicago pizza - sorry! I love Chicago pizza!).
The tomato sauce was from another dimension, it tasted so fresh and I could TASTE the tomatoes. I have no IDEA what the tomato sauces I've tasted before were doing but they were not doing it like this!
The crust is cooked thin and perfectly. I never thought I would like thin crust pizza. The bottom is slightly burnt (because of the charcoal) but you don't taste it. How they do that??? Who is the witch they are hiding in the kitchen? It's not greasy like a normal pizza and actually tastes a bit... healthy??? HOW!!! They have everything down to a perfected formula. If I lived in NYC, I'd come here ALL THE TIME!

Long wait outside in the heat but reviews said it was worth it. We ordered a large pizza. Whole sweet onion and 1/2 pepperoni. Stella Artois and Riesling too.

I've been to Grimaldi's next door on a previous visit to DUMBO. This place is owned by the original Grimaldi owner, there is no affiliation between the two restaurants according to Juliana's website.

The pizza was delicious. The service was excellent and quick once we made it. I can't say it was worth the wait because it was so hot and uncomfortable outside. But the coal oven fired pizza is very good! They did have a water cooler outside. The restaurant is small so if the line is long you can be waiting a while.

Looked at all the nearby reviews and they were all so bad so we decided to try Juliana's. When we arrived there was a line out the door. Honestly that was the most confusing part not knowing where or how to wait. We got seated abt 20 minutes later and got served right away.

The vibes from the place was very homey. Lots of chatter and families were here. I enjoyed the environment itself as you can tell everyone's minding their own business so you can just chat. There was no rush in the service either. The server was very friendly and attentive.

We got the spaghetti and meatballs. Meatballs were cooked perfectly. Spaghetti was good as well. The margarita pizza tasted great! No complaints on the food whatsoever. Overall the food/vibes/location/service were all great. I'd give it a 4.8/5.0 star experience

Amazing pizza! Our fave that we tried during our trip to NY. Thicker crust than what I'd consider a typical NY style pizza, but still thin and surprisingly light, not very filling, which was great, cause I didn't want to stop eating it! lol
Our server was very helpful and attentive. Casual atmosphere and the decor set the mood. Also, there was a line when we arrived, but it went quick. We didn't have to wait long, which was nice.

I've been really looking forward to eating at Juliana's as this is owned by the original owner of Grimaldi's, so this is the original Grimaldi's. There are no reservations, so you stand in line until you get a table. Luckily, the wait isn't too bad and we only waited about 10 minutes on a Monday evening. Once you're seated, the service is super efficient and quick as the pizza and beers came soon after we ordered. This is great, especially when you're hungry.

Between the three of us, we ordered a Personal White Pizza ($18) with Anchovies ($5) and a Large Margherita Pizza ($30) with Pepperoni ($6). The personal pizza is pretty small and because of the size, there's more crust on there. I didn't like that there was no sauce on the white pizza, so it's literally just mozzarella as the garlic was lacking as well. Luckily, the anchovies gave it some salty flavor though. The Pepperoni Margherita is simple and basic. It's not bad, but not amazing. I felt like it lacked much flavor, so the chili flakes were a nice topper to the pizza.

Overall, I'd rather go to Grimaldi's next door even if the line is longer. If you're in a rush, Juliana's is not bad though. A lot of people also get takeout from here to enjoy at the Promenade, which is nice.

A sit-down pizzeria that's the sister restaurant to the popular Grimaldi's next door -- I loved the old-school pizzeria vibe. We didn't have to wait longer than ~15 minutes to get a table for 3 on a Saturday evening. The food comes out really fast and the service is efficient.

The pizza itself was good -- the sauce and toppings were yummy. A large pie was more than enough for all of us, who came in hungry. I wish the crust had been a little crispier and that you could add more than two toppings per pie, though. Overall a decent pie, worth a visit if you're in the area.

Visiting from Houston and I HAD to have pizza in Brooklyn. A yelp! review hipped me: Juliana's is opened by a Grimaldi- and it's allegedly superior. I haven't had Grimaldi's but Juli's was yum. We got the marg and added arugula and ricotta. Satisfying crunch on the crust, ricotta was creamy. I felt the sauce lacked salt. But they didn't stop me from crushing. Two word review: stringy cheese

Food: margarita pizza was full of flavor and fresh arugula is must ($7 add-in opt.) Pizza crust was very crispy and cheese was fresh- decent pizza

Staffs: friendly and kind

Ambiance: quite crowded and ppl line up during peak time so would recommend going there early. Turnaround is quite fast though

This was really good pizza!! We went early and still had to stand in line. That's a good sign. The service was excellent and very helpful. We started to order a pizza that came without sauce and the waiter steered us in a different direction after asking us a couple questions. We shared a salad and brought pizza home with us!! Today we went by a noon and the line was super long. Get there early! They have a lot of wines with a large price differential so if you're wanting a $200 bottle you can get it. We chose a $40 and it was fantastic. Definitely would go back! Family oriented atmosphere and friendly service!!
