New Pizza Joint on Franklin Street

Franklin Pizza opened last week in Greenpoint at 109 Franklin St. Its strategic location provides a cheap, late-night pizza option for hungry bar-goers. For non-locals, it would make a nice pit-stop prior to the inevitable half-hour wait for the G train home. As its neon sign suggests, heroes and pasta options will be offered as well. Currently open until midnight, we were told that, depending upon the level of business, they may stay open later. Early reports indicate a middle-of-the-road slice. Yelper Matt G says the pizza has a “crispy crust, good sauce, and tasty cheese.” Eaglestreeter, via Newyorkshitty, says “the crust is crisp but not as thin as the perfect NYC slice…the sauce needs some kind of kick.” GMAP
