DUMBO has a reputation for some of the best pizza in the city with Juliana’s and Grimaldi’s attracting pizza aficionados to Front Street. Enter L&B Spumoni Gardens known for its “sauce on top” approach to pizza-making.

After months of work. L&B has finally opened a huge pizza shop and restaurant just steps away from its pizza rivals at 46 Old Fulton Street. You can stop in for a slice at the counter as you enter lined with state-of-the-art pizza ovens or eat in the main dining room decorated to pay homage to L&B’s Italian roots.

This family friendly restaurant offers a mix of salads, pastas, pizzas and Italian heroes. Start with some Arancini (rice balls), Baked Clams and Garlic Bread Parmigiana. There are whole pizzas with toppings like mushroom, pepperoni and sausage or go for the L&B Sicilian pie which the restaurant is famous for.

There are assorted pastas with everything from broccoli and sausage to meatballs and primavera. Entrees include favorites like chicken and eggplant parm to shrimp fra diavolo. Or, choose from more than a dozen Italian heroes include Porketta with provolone and sun-dried pepper aioli.

L&B Spumoni Gardens, which got its start as a push cart in Bensonhurst more than 80 years ago, is a true New York City treasure!
