Brooklyn Pizzeria & Taps

We like this place. My favourite pizza is Ebbot’s field and the Brooklyn Lager is pretty good too.

Not a bad place at all to grab a beer and some appies. Food has always been good and service very friendly which is sadly hard to find these days! Any problems I’ve had have been dealt with very promptly with great kindness. I hate to complain so when I do I appreciate my concerns being addressed the way these guys do. Good wings!

Tried out Brooklyn pizzaria this evening for the first time. We were happy to finally find a place in Calgary where you have great food and great service at the same time. We ordered the Brooklyn brawler I believe. Which was delicious, for dessert we had a apple pie and tiramisu* both met our expectations. The manager Hemi made sure our experience was enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family. And will return in the near future.

Delicious pizza place! Ordered some salt and pepper wings and the bacon pizza! Our waiters also gave us great service, I would definitely recommend.

Ordered calamari, mixed green house salad, and the meat pizza. All were tasty. I was especially impressed with the calamari. The pizza was generous with a variety of meat, with the only drawback being that the centre got a bit soggy. Ate on the patio which was very spacious and chairs were comfortable. It also got a lot of sun! Aneel was our server and he provided very friendly and overall great service!

After reading the review in the Calgary Herald my wife and I tried the pizza. Horrible! Bad service, waitress brought wrong pizza, which we tasted 1 terrible bite then had long wait for correct pizza, Brooklyn Bridge. Sauce was merely chopped canned tomatoes with some herbs, cheese was terrible, taste strange. Seems like they try to be different but novelty does not equal quality. Horrible

We eat at Brooklyn regularly and order the same thing every time — hot wings and pizza. The hot wings are spicy and delicious and the pizza is the best we’ve had in Calgary. The Brooklyn Brawler is the one we order most often and we haven’t been disappointed yet. Service is always great too!

Great pizza place in NW Calgary! When they first opened much was to be desired but they have improved a lot and their food and service is exceptional now. The waitress recommended the Pork and Fig pizza which was absolutely amazing. All round solid choice to take the family for tasty Italian style pizza.

Went with my family for a quick and easy sit down dinner. Food was good, 80’s pop music was a bit disturbing. Very quick, wife loves hockey so the big screen TV’s were great for her. There wasn’t too much of a menu and it was so dark it was hard to read the photocopied menu. It’s new too us and I’m hoping that it will get better in the coming months.

Awesome restaurant with the best pizza and staff. I highly recommend it. They also have super fun paint nite!

I hate to do this, but if the food is terrible, the restaurants needs to know. Maybe they can change for the better.
First off I have gave them two stars only because they have had good reviews on the pizza and my wife and I did not have the pizza. Also the waiter was extremely friendly and deserved a star.
We had a couple of the other items on the menu. I had the spaghetti and meatballs and my wife had the Chicken Parmigiana Sandwich.
Starting with the chicken sandwich. The menu states for the chicken parmigiana sandwich: «Fresh chicken breast lightly breaded in-​house» Unfortunately there is no way in the world that breaded chicken breast was fresh, more likely reheated in a microwave, probably one or two days old, straight out of the fridge. Absolutely terrible taste.
The spaghetti and meatballs: the best thing I could say about this dish is the spaghetti was cooked right. The meatballs (and I use the word meat very loosely) tasted like there was only bread crumbs and no meat in there, with absolutely no flavour. «WHERE’S the BEEF»! This dish comes with a plate full of spaghetti, tomato sauce and three small (1″ dia.) meatballs. Wow! Suggestion: change your meatball recipe and either increase the size of your meatballs or put at least five on one serving. Don’t be so cheap.
As well the tomato sauce could not have been homemade, it must be from a can — awful. Even the worst cook in the world could make a better tomato sauce. Apparently, and I am only guessing, they use this sauce on everything. If that’s so I cannot image their pizza is any good, not with this sauce. Maybe the cooking process kills taste out of the pizza.
Harsh, but true.
Changes are needed, if you can’t serve good food other than your pizzas than stick to the pizza and leave Italian food to the experts.

Got takeout from this place tonight.
I would have been better off with Mc Donald’s!
I got the risotto balls. They where mushy and cold!!! Also got the pasta with the mushrooms and bacon and it tasted like over cooked cold pasta with some melted butter on it. Also asked for chicken on it twice and I could tell the girl o the phone was not listening and like I figured no chicken
I was hoping this place would be good but I will never return after the garbage i was served

Best pizza in Calgary hands down! Great atmosphere and great patio, The staff are friendly and attentive my beer was never empty. Love the place.

Was my first time here, had a great time, great service, had the onion rings as an appetizer and they were the best I’ve had. Had their spaghetti special which was also great. Topped off the meal with a cheesecake desert wrapped in a pastry, was so tasty! My man and I had to roll ourselves out the door. Looking forward to another date night here.

Went to Brooklyn Pizzeria with the girlfriend and another couple on a Friday night. Cool environment and décor, all New York-​like. A surprising amount of families and kids. Didn’t have to wait to get in, which was nice.
Drinks first: I had a Granville Island Winter Ale (points for that!), girlfriend had a mojito, which was «alright». We each ordered a 9″ Brooklyn-​style pizza, which is like a thin crust; I had a traditional one with prosciutto and arugula, she had one with pork, pineapple, and bbq sauce. Our couple friends ordered a Chicago deep dish style pizza with a selection of ingredients to share; upon learning that it would take about 45 minutes to make, we also ordered bruschetta and onion rings as appetizers. Bruschetta was pretty small, only four pieces of bread, onion rings were big and tasty. My girlfriend and I both enjoyed our pizzas, but the other couple was not impressed with their deep dish, it seemed that even though they picked all these different toppings, they only got a few of each on a pretty big pie. They didn’t even keep it for leftovers.
After ordering and even after we got our food, we hardly saw our server, which was aggravating after our drinks had run dry, especially considering after we arrived around 6:30 and ordered, the place seemed to empty out.
All in all, it wasn’t bad, but it would be tough to convince me to drive all the way out to the area when there’s Double Zero Pizza downtown and Chinook and Una on 17^th.

Loved this place. Great for dinner, drinks or a quick lunch. Fantastic service, pizza was great and lots of parking. I have been here when it was The Rock and I find it so much better food wise now. Will be back!!!

The deep dish has finally arrived, and having spent considerable time in Chicago, this isn’t too bad, considering it’s 1000 miles away.
Currently they are only offering 4 topping options, so I went with the Dom Deluise. Pretty tasty.
Either way, very good deep dish. Can’t wait to have the option to build my own though.

My friend and I got off to a rocky start with our waitress. We decided to order chicken wings as a starter, we ordered honey garlic and ended up with BBQ. When we mentioned it to our waitress she went to the kitchen and learned that the restaurant doesn’t actually have honey garlic flavouring for chicken wings. So we ended up with the BBQ wings, the wings were a bit dry but the BBQ flavour was pretty good.
For my main course, I ordered the Brooklyn bridge pizza. I ordered it without the pine nuts and added bacon. This pizza was fantastic. It wasn’t greasy at all. I would definitely recommend this pizza to anyone, I would definitely order it again.
The restaurant itself is clean, uncluttered and the artwork is very nice. I could do without their choice of music though, not a big fan of current pop music. Overall, a good restaurant.

I eventually had the pizza I knew could come from Brooklyn unfortunately it was try 3.
1. terrible crust good toppings
2. good crust and stingy toppings
3. perfection that could have come from nyc itself.
Unfortunately for Brooklyn even the perfect pizza came with an appy flop when they couldn’t get the pretzel’s mustrard sauce right. Normally it’s a creamy mustard flavor that’s kind of sweet. It came out mostly like plain mustard. We mentioned something and we got back an unmixed goo that had like honey and mustard, By the end of the meal the kitchen realized they forgot an ingredient. Yeah… I know?!
That kind of brings me to my point. Brooklyn has terrible CONSISTENCY but they had promise if they can pull it together. Even their menu is polarized by hits and misses.
Hits:
Pretzels
New York Pizza
Pork Cutlet
Cheesecake
Misses:
baked ziti (was penne with tomatoe sause and a little cheese — this is not baked and the wrong pasta. The sauce is boring and the pasta was just over cooked because I’m sure they baked in an over just without any cheese but I assume it wasn’t al dente before baking. so it was basically mush) I couldn’t eat much and didn’t take the left overs
anything other than the ny crust on the pizza. Gag.
The veggie wrap — boring, needlessly messy and way to much sauce.
I urge the management to pair the menu down and train their staff better to get good quality out to the tables EVERY time.

Not a bad place to meet someone for lunch. Lots of parking and the restaurant itself is spacious. The music was playing at a decent level so you could have table conversation unlike some places. I had been here when it was the Rock Pizzeria. It still looks the same, has the same staff and feel but the menu seems to have changed. (Same owner)
Pizza is the go-​to here so I got the Jamaican with NY style crust. I loved the fresh mango atop of it but man, they overloaded too much on the bell peppers. It was not spicy at all even though it had promised to be, sad for me.
My friend opted for the thin crust which I stayed away from as some reviewers mentioned it was as thin and as crispy as a cracker. Her and I swapped a piece and it was actually not that bad. My friend wanted to make a couple of substitutions too on her order and staff were fine with that, very accommodating.
I asked for a side pizza sauce with my pie as I found it a bit dry and to my amazement, I was not charged for it! :) It was good, house-​made marinara I believe it was.
I had ordered a med pizza and wow, a big medium it was and I took half home for later. $ 18, way cheaper than some other Calgary places for za.
I also spoke to friends that had been there on other occasions and they recommend the burger and the fish tacos if you are into that.
I would return here for pizza, maybe for take out to try out some of the other creations they offer.
Oh, and my dining partner also got the beer battered fries as an appy to try. They never came until after we got our meal and reminded staff of them who had forgotten to ring them in for us… (free, thank you). They were hot, crunchy and delicious — a must try!
Barring that mishap, the service has improved since its days as the Rock, I prefer it better now to what it once was.
