Critically acclaimed Montesacro Pinseria, that first opened in San Francisco in 2015, has joined the team from Aurora Restaurant to create this unique gem in the heart of Williamsburg. The menu offers the artfully crafted, light and airy pinsa, made with a blend of rice, soy and wheat flour imported directly from Rome, all GMO-free, low-fat, low-calorie and easy to digest. As well as traditional dishes from the Roman cuisine, locally crafted beers and a unique selection of biodynamic and natural wines. The large garden room in the back features a retractable glass skylight ceiling which can be opened during the warmer months.
“Delicious, delicious pastas and pizza! The vibes are great and the green room(?) Is soon spacious. Highly recommend a visit!”
“I was looking for an intimate place to be quiet from the busy hot day. It started with the ensalada with Cacio e Pepe dressing and a cocktail of Amaretto on the rocks. The Seabass was delicious with chickpeas and the house wine was crisp and right for the fish. Eggcream custard with rhubarb finished the beautiful meal and left me smiling. The service was excellent. I was a walk-in. It is better to make a reservation. I sat in the front with the door open for the breeze. From time to time the noise from the street wandered in with no real disruption. The price was expected and I happily paid. Enjoy!!!”
“I absolutely loved this Mezze Maniche alla carbonara. From the first bite, it was pure comfort. This is the kind of dish I could happily order again and again. Simple, comforting, and done so well. Definitely one of my favorites.”
“Montesacro was a great place to have a solo dinner. I sat at the bar. The staff is friendly and service is quick. I ordered the Carbonara and Tiramisu, both were amazing. I also had a glass of Pinot Noir. I’ve had better, but it was fine overall. When I dine alone, I like to read a book. The noise volume was conducive to doing so.”
“Walked in on a Friday night and was seated immediately. The people after us were offered seats at the bar while they waited for a table, so I would say get there earlier if you don’t set a reservation. My friends and I ordered a bowl of cacio e pepe and each got a pizza to split. The casal bertone was everyone’s favorite! The perfect combo of flavors combined with that crispy guanciale (don’t let this scare you away if you’re not used to it) had us all wanting more. The infernetto was okay, nothing spectacular honestly but still good to me. A tougher sauce critic at the table rated it lower. We didn’t really enjoy the Tufello. It felt like it was missing something, so that one we didn’t finish. If you’re drinking, the Caligola was great and I could see myself ordering that every time. Our Arnold Palmer critic said “it was all Arnold and No Palmer…1/10”. Our waitress was kind enough to remove it from the bill. I would recommend this place to others. It’s a nice vibe inside for sure and overall you’ll enjoy the food”
