Wheated

Wheated probably takes the crown for some of the best specialty pizzas in Brooklyn. We absolutely loved our dinner here. The space has a fast, lively energy that makes it feel like you’re in on a neighborhood favorite, and the food completely lives up to the buzz. One of the coolest touches is that every pizza is named after a Brooklyn neighborhood, which makes the menu fun to explore. I ordered the Flatbush and it honestly surprised me in the best way. I had never tried eggplant on pizza before, but it worked incredibly well. It added a rich, savory depth without feeling heavy, and the crust had that perfect balance of chewy and crisp. The cocktails were also a pleasant surprise. It’s not always expected at a pizza spot, but they were thoughtfully made and paired perfectly with the meal. Everything about Wheated just clicked, from the energy of the room to the quality of the food. This is the kind of place you leave already planning what you’ll order next time. I cannot wait to come back. 🍕🔥

Definitely one of the TOP Pie spots in Brooklyn! Love the aesthetics! The bathroom door blending into the wall is cool! I don’t remember that last time I was here to dine-in but that was a while ago. I’ve done both take-out & dine-in here. There were a couple tables available but they do fill up fast! I found a seat by the bar right away! I ordered a drink while I waited I don’t remember the name but it was good. The Pizza came after like 15min or so it wasn’t a long wait. I was really happy with its presentation, flavor & texture etc… The cheese was perfectly melted, the crust was crispy & sauce was great! They definitely didn’t disappoint & piled high the toppings for the supreme part of the pie. I would definitely get the supreme again though next time I wanna try a white pie maybe the New Haven rosemary potato pie sounds good as a next try. I would also highly recommend the Flatbush for all the Eggplant lovers out there! The service was good, the staff was attentive to my needs & were friendly.

First Impressions & Vibe: We popped in on a Saturday with no reservation and were seated within 10 minutes. The place was busy, or “bumping,” as you said. The atmosphere is cool, casual, lively, neighborhood pizza spot energy. ⸻ 🥗 Salad + Starters We tried the Tuscan Kale salad. The cheese was nice and nutty, and the walnuts added a good texture. But the dressing was too acidic — the moment you bite in, the tang hits first and lingers. It overpowered the greens instead of complementing them. ⸻ 🍕 Pizza & Side We went with a classic New York style pie, 12-inch split between two people. Served correctly, satisfying size — we didn’t leave hungry. It’s the kind of pizza you expect from a pizza place: decent cheese, but teg crust was BURNT , but overall “good.” But I have to call out a few details: 1. The bacon side was disappointing. It tasted more like honey ham than bacon. It lacked the fattiness, crispiness, texture contrast you want from bacon. 2. They even served it with a side of ketchup, which felt odd 3. The execution of the pizza was fine, but nothing popped. The food didn’t “wow” me. I will say that their menu offers a wide range of “sourdough pizzas” and “special pizzas” in different styles which I found interesting! 🍹 Drinks & Service We didn’t try any cocktails this time, so can’t speak much on that front. The service was average — nothing bad, nothing that stood out. Exactly what you’d expect: professional, steady, no major slip-ups. ⸻ 🔍 Final Thoughts Wheated is a solid neighborhood pizza spot. It has thoughtful craft behind its dough and menu concepts. Its strengths lie in variety, ambition, and decent pricing. But on this visit, the food didn’t fully deliver — the salad was overpowered, the bacon was off, and the pizza was good but not memorable. Would I go back? Yes — probably more for drinks next time, and maybe experimenting with other pizzas, or to see if another visit hits harder.

Amazing pizza! Despite we had to wait over 1 hour, the service was good and the pizza was so delicious, that i would definitely come back!!!

From the moment we walked in, we knew this would be something special. The pizzas were absolutely phenomenal. The arugula pie was fresh and perfectly balanced, the classic Margherita was full of bold flavor, and the meatballs? Out of this world. Light, tender, and drenched in a sauce we couldn’t stop dipping into. But what truly tied the entire experience together was Cesar. He was the glue that made everything feel easy, fun, and smooth. His warmth, attention, and vibe elevated the entire night. It was our first time here, and thanks to him and the outstanding food, it absolutely won’t be the last. This spot has officially become our go-to. Thank you for an amazing first visit. We’ll be back soon.

Not sure how I haven’t rated sooner, we absolutely love this place. The pizza is always incredible, the meatballs are definitely a sleeper hit on the apps. But last night we were there and the Bay Ridge (a vodka pie) was just out of this world, better than any of the other times I’ve had it (and it’s one of my regulars). So happy to have such a wonderful and special restaurant in the neighborhood. If you’re looking to come, no reservations (except for 5pm), all guests must be there to be seated, and there isn’t a large dining space so larger parties might wait. In the better weather, they also have a wonderful backyard set up.

We popped in and it was busy. Luckily they had 3 seats at the bar. 10/10 would recommend. We got 2 12" pizzas and it was perfect for 3 people. We took home a few slices. Both pizzas were delicious. The ceasar salad was also outstanding

Nice neighborhood joint with friendly staff, I just went to try their pizza, did not eat anything else. This a very thin pizza - almost like a cracker- and I guess it is just matter of taste here, not my favorite. I like the flavor of the dough, distinctive and indeed it is on point. My problem was the "tomato sauce", more like tomato paste with strong acidity. I also was expecting more from the claimed "mozzarella old and new", the cheese was very bland and lacking any creamy texture. It looks like the place it's a big hit though. It did not do it for me.
