Andrew Bellucci opened his namesake slice and pie joint about a month ago in Astoria, but the origin story goes way back. In addition to working at such NYC greats as Joe s and Rubirosa, Bellucci was also present at the (re)creation of his family s other restaurant, the legendary Lombardi s, in 1994. Its first iteration opened way before that, however, around 1905, and also on Spring Street. It is considered to be the very first pizzeria in the country.
So there s a lot of history behind this modest, ordinary-looking pizza place but you don t need to know any of it to get excited about Bellucci. It s a solid new pizzeria, featuring a just-large-enough selection of slices and pies to keep things interesting, run by a guy who really knows his stuff. Definitely a welcome addition to the neighborhood.
