Profile

If you’re a sucker for nostalgia and a connoisseur of Sicilian pizza, you’ll love this Bensonhurst landmark where locals and pizza pilgrims line up for the signature square pie (a light, crunchy crust, adorned with a bare minimum of mozzarella cheese beneath a layer of tangy tomato sauce) and a paper cup of the frozen house specialty.

Recommended Dishes

Pizza slice, $2; square pizza pie, $18

Check the dates of the previous reviews. L&B has been sold to new owners. This place has changed and their prices have gone up. They used to have the best sicilian pizza but now...it's all dough, weak sauce and skimpy on the cheese. Okay, so they have parking....go for thier italian ices; that hasn't changed.

The greatest pizza ever
