Union Pizza Works

I will start off by saying that in general I am not a fan of pizza but this place was amazing. The pizza is like none I have ever had, it’s fresh and so tasty! I had the pizza with Italian sausage and mozzarella cheese, I definitely recommend it! The mixed salad also tasted fresh. But the best part was dessert! I had the panna cotta. By far the best one I’ve had in a long time. The kind waiter also recommended a red wine which was so good that I had a second glass and I’m not much of a drinker. The service was great, I felt attended to at all times. We were there for a while and it was busy but we never felt like we were being rushed out. Overall I definitely recommend this place!

one of it’s front running charms is the fact that there is much less ppl here than at roberta’s.
their pizza is equally good, if not better. we had a breakfast pizza with bacon, a very runny egg, scamorza and asparagus. dough was just chewy enough but thin.
i also had the minestrone soup which was well seasoned.
the staff is a bit aloof but they grow on you. or maybe it was that post-​pizza glow where everything was just tinged in unicorn dust

Awesome pizza, awesome staff, awesome location.
Loosely traditional Italian style pizza. Lots of sausages, veggies, and burrata! If you are looking for an alternative to Roberta’s, this is it. Prices are reasonable and so are the wait times. Definitely worth your dollars in this neighborhood.
Highlights of the evening were the artichoke and spicy salami pizza, and the porcheta pizza. Everything is super light, and the house red sauce is very bright. The wood charcoal oven really chars the pizzas and gives them the ever so popular black marks and soot.

Service is terrible, the Waiter after a I reorder another bottle of wine he just place it to the table with out pour any wine at my party, not even asking if we where neglect us all night we had to wave our hands, to get their attention, not coming back at all

This place is different but definitely just as good as Roberta’s!
I used to live off the Morgan stop so Roberta’s was aways my go to, but I have to say, Union Pizza Works really stole my heart
The Burrata con Prosciutto is to die for.
My favorite pizzas are The Funghi with prosciutto, the Salsiccia and a special they have with artichokes and egg! But honestly, they are all delicious.
Great mezcal hot toddy and mezcal negroni too. I usually order take out and I love having a few drinks and chatting with the bartender while I wait for the food.
Rustic and romantic inside at night. I haven’t tried the brunch yet but I can’t wait to

Absolutely incredible pizza with cherry tomatoes and actual mozzarella! I also loved the ricotta cheesecake, though I wish I had gotten the panna cotta.
The atmosphere and the servers are lovely!

Nice ambiance, good food, good music, good service.
Our pizza was a little charred, but otherwise very tasty.
My roommate and I love that it’s open late.
CASH ONLY

The food was delicious, the space quite pleasant, and the prices absolutely reasonable.
I’d love to give them five stars, but the waiter who ignored us to chat with another table for ten minutes after we’d asked him for the check makes me feel I can’t.
Better luck next time!

Honestly, it’s better than Roberta’s. I ate a lot here (10 different items), and the food is A+. Plus, the interior is really charming — dark wood, candle + string lighting, and large glass windows dividing the inside from the outdoor seating.
Highlights: Caprese salad, burrata con Prosciutto, and all pizzas (Margherita, Funghi, Tuscan Kale). The Margherita, aka the foundation, is really really good… order the best sounding toppings for the tastiest experience. Also had ravioli (good) tiramisu (4 stars), mussels (everyone said they were great, not my thing), and insalata mista (decent, but get the kale salad instead).
Their sparkling wine was really tasty ($ 8/​glass), and random, but the glassware it was served in was really nice. I felt like I was having a rather nice, expensive drink. There were a lot of us and the service was very attentive, helpful, and quick. There is also outdoor seating in front of the restaurant. Also, not BYOB.
Food, atmosphere, everything was great. Right off the Jefferson L stop, definitely come here for a great meal. Love this place a lot.

CASH ONLY!!! Wish they told us, or had a sign somewhere, or mentioned it on the menu. But, this is not about that, this is about their food and service.
Both were great. They serve ‘real’ Neapolitan pizza without all the buzz or selectiveness around it — just a good pizza place. They also serve a few salads, brunch on the weekend.
For drinks — FULL bar + white Sangria, which was super refreshing on a hot summer afternoon.
Overall, beautiful place with great food and drinks — just make sure you have cash.

this place has a great vibe. nice décor and has a great reasonably priced Menu. My favorite is the asparagus and onon pizza

I really enjoyed this cute little pizza place. Went with a small group of friends. It was a great environment for just having some good pizza and hanging out with a couple friends. Also a great date night spot. The patio is really nice and on a warm night it’s perfect.
It is cash only but they have an atm in the front for a worst case scenario.
The pizza was delicious! In a group of three we got two pizzas an a side pasta dish and it worked out great. There were not many options of different kinds of pizzas, but honestly they all look so yummy and there’s definitely something for everyone.
The next time I went here I got myself a mixed drink off the menu and it was very tasty.
I would highly recommend this place to anyone in the area. I will definitely be back with more friends.

I love this place. It’s an open gastropub. They have a good selection of beer local, domestic and foreign. It’s a great spring, summer and fall spot due to the outdoor seating. The owner is amazing. He greets you and engages in conversation. We enjoy dinning here because of his hospitality. On our first visit he treated my husband and I to dessert. We ordered the Tiramisu and it was delicious.
We usually order the brick oven pizzas. They are always consistent in delivering great quality pizza. I usually go for the margherita, salame picante and salsiccia pizza. I highly recommend all of them. The salame picante is spicy for those who enjoy it. The location offers highly quality pizza similar to Robertas without the long lines. The wood that they use provides a different smokey flavor to the pizza that I enjoy. Overall I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area.

I tried the salme picante pizza and it was delicious! The salame had a nice kick to it.
However the red sangria was very watery. I wouldn’t recommend it.
The waiter wasn’t very attentive either.
Other than that, i wouldn’t mind coming back to try their other selections of pizza.

Union Pizza Work’s industrial façade disguises the laid back familial atmosphere and delicious Italian food within. Step inside and you’ll be rewarded.

Through hear-​say, I heard about UPW’s wood oven pizza and stopped by one evening to pick up a margherita pie with the idea of taking it home. Well, by the time I got to the car, I was tempted to sample a slice and ended up eating the entire pie in one sitting. Impatiently greedy? Yes. But was it good? YES.
I returned for brunch the following Sunday as I wanted to sit and experience the outdoor seating. My party chose to sit outdoors but under the covered roof. The only negative, if the sun is HOT you’re going to feel it blazing down under the clear plastic covering.
We ordered two salads – the apple (eye-​appeal but taste okay) and the fresh mozarrella and tomato drizzled with fresh basil oil (very good) along with three pies – chorizo (1) and spicy sausage (2) the latter being the group’s favorite and two glasses of wine – sauvignon blanc and a rose. The pizza options were good especially when you add their spicy olive oil atop. I’ll likely return for an evening meal.

Had a really good time here. The whole place is just very cool, so reminiscent of the restaurants in Varenna, Italy. We actually mentioned this to our waiter who happened to be from Lake Como in Italy! He recommended great dishes and informed us that all of their meals are made in-​house.
Our first time here:
Two of us shared the margherita pizza and the bresaola salad off the special menu. Both very good, but I especially enjoyed the pizza. It was all in the crust and the sauce — so good. The tiramisu was the bomb.
Second time here:
Focaccia pizza was more like a sandwich pizza. Very tasty but it could’ve used actual tomato sauce. We asked for marinara as a dipping sauce and that made it 10 times better. We also had the meatballs and they were soooooooooo good. Super tender and great flavor. There were even small pieces of garlic in them, yum. For dessert, we had the chocolate salami — FYI this has no meat. It’s a crispy yet soft chocolate cookie covered in blueberry sauce cleverly made to look like a salami slice.
Cocktails:
Paper planes — pretty small but packed a mean punch and is the perfect summer drink.
Milan julep — solid strong cocktail.
Real deal brick oven, great outdoor space and awesome industrial construction.

One night, one of us was craving for a chorizo pizza. We checked Unilocal,read a lot of good reviews about this place, & decided to check it out.
We were here on a Thursday night around 8pm. Street parking is easy to find. The place was somewhat busy but we didn’t have to wait for a table. We were seated immediately.
Casual place with a wood fire place. Great for one of those cold winter nights. We got the salame piccante & the pizza con cipolle. They were definitely delicious. The salame piccante has the spicy chorizo but definitely not spicy. We had to ask for some crushed pepper. The portion were decent. The pizza is about 12″. We weren’t stuffed but definitely satisfied. If you have a big appetite or starving, it’s best if you add an extra sides or maybe even an extra pie.
Overall, we like the pizza here. The service was attentive. The food came pretty quickly. All total, our bill came out to about $ 30.
This place have live music on Monday. If you’re around the area, this place is definitely worth checking out.

Great place. Great drinks awesome bartenders and amazing food
What more would u want. The perfect spot oin brooklyn for good food and drinks with great hospitality :) i was very pleased

I was in need of a good pizza to go, and Union Pizza Work was just perfect. The service was quick and nice. I waited at the bar for my order, drinking a Peroni, admiring the nice design and atmosphere.
My margherita was delicious. I especially enjoyed the mozzarella cheese, as it seems and taste really traditional (not smoky or other sort of strange type.)
The dough was also really good, type of dry crunchy one, not smoochy or oily.
Will save this place for a proper sit-​down dinner as it seems really nice!
