ok if you like pizza with thick crust

by madmax64

Oven is a cute little place between DUMBO and Brooklyn Heights, and it's worth a try if you happen to live nearby. The pizzas are square, served in the dish in which they are baked. However, they tend to be a bit on the thick-crusted side for my taste, with too much sauce and too much cheese (I realize that for some people these are all good attributes, there's no accounting for taste :) They also have good salads and a small selection on wines.

Yummy!

by ERandAM

Was a little concerned, because when we got there, they didn't have our table ready, even though we had a reservation. But they have us each a free glass of wine, which makes any wait more bearable. They warned us that they had a chef call out, so the food might be slow, but it wasn't, and it was yummy, yummy, yummy. The goat cheese salad had lots of cheese, which is great since I'm addicted to the stuff. The bruschetta was warm and tasty, and the wine was great and not too pricey. All around good. It was also great when two of us got appetizers, salads, pizza, and wine, and our bill was less than $50 (though I'm sure the two free glasses of wine helped there). The pizzas are big enough to share, and the salads are a good size too.

Best New Restaurant In Brooklyn

by citybug6768

I was in this part of Brooklyn over this past weekend doing some Holiday shopping and went to Oven for dinner. What a wonderful place...it is small and cozy, has a great wine selection and the staff was exactly what you expect from a good restaurant. The food was the best part, of course, try the veal meatballs or the curry chicken pizza, and everything that came out of the kitchen looked good! I had an great experience and will most certainly be back.
