Fornino

A pizza is much more than just its ingredients. A great pizza blends historical traditions with scientific subtleties. That's what Chef Michael Ayoub brought to Brooklyn when Fornino opened its doors in 2004. Dubbed the "First Chef of Brooklyn" by the New York Times, Ayoub draws from the Neapolitan style of pizza making while appreciating the formulaic approach to crafting pizza. The science behind Fornino's dough allows for each of our pizzas to come out perfectly every single time, no matter the day, weather, or topping. The Fornino namesake was borrowed from Ayoub's mother's maiden name, a nod to his family's history of baking through the generations.

What only four years ago was 85 acres of industrial land is now a bustling green space along Brooklyn's waterfront. Brooklyn Bridge Park is a favorite among residents and visitors alike, and now home to our newest Fornino. This location offers rooftop seating with an expansive view of the Statue of Liberty and lower Manhattan (the sunset is not to be missed!) as well as a special menu specific to this location. In addition to our signature pizza you'll find sandwiches, artisanal sodas, and ice cream. Source: http://fornino.com/

The Delancey

In May of 2004, The Delancey opened its doors to a warm welcome from the lower east side. The three level club is home to a downstairs music venue, main level bar, and the only all weather rooftop garden of its kind peering out onto the Manhattan side of the Williamsburg Bridge.

The 3 floors of The Delancey can either accommodate their own individual events, or join together to become one big party. Upon entering, guests are greeted by a long luxurious bar illuminated by a candlelit ceiling. Surrounding the bar are party spaces including a chandelier lined VIP room, elegant window room, and red velvet booths which are enveloped by silky drapes. These may be reserved on a nightly basis at no charge, and the space booked for each party is based on estimated number of guests in the party. Across from the bar sits a high standing booth where resident and guest DJs spin the night away, and you can rock out to your favorite music. A quick walk up one of two rooftop staircases leads to a lush tropical open air oasis leaving behind the hustle and bustle of the city. The retractable roof allows for parties rain or shine, Summer or Winter, with another full service bar and cocktail atmosphere.
