About Juliana's Pizza

Juliana's is a pizzeria on Old Fulton Street, just below the Brooklyn Bridge in DUMBO. Patsy Grimaldi and his wife Carol opened it in 2012 in the same spot where they first started Grimaldi's, a name they had since sold. Pizzas bake in a hand-built coal-fired oven, which the restaurant says was the first commissioned in New York in more than fifty years. The place is named for Patsy's mother, Juliana Lancieri Grimaldi. It takes no reservations and closes for a short break each afternoon.
