That’s amore!
On Thursday, Sept. 7, singer-songwriterCharlie Puth proposed to his girlfriend, Brooke Sansoneat a wildly popular Brooklyn pizza restaurant,Lucali. The hot spot has garnered a massive following far beyond its Carroll Gardens neighborhood locals since it first opened in 2006 —including a large fanbase of celebrities.
Months before Puth, 31, popped the question at Lucali, Beyonce Knowles had the restaurant’s founder, Mark Iacono, serve up his famous pies ather 2023 Fourth of July white party, according toVogue.
Jay-Z revealed to Jimmy Fallon thatLucali was his favorite pizzain all of Brooklyn during an interview onThe Tonight Show.
Chrissy Teigenhas also given the restaurant high praise writing “the best pizza and best people” in a May 2022Instagram post.

Before visiting Lucali, there are a few things to know. With only 30 seats, snagging a table at the restaurant can feel daunting, especially when the pizza joint doesn’t take reservations.
To secure a seat, you’ll have to put your name on a list right when the restaurant opens. A queue forms behind a velvet rope long before the pizza spot starts service at 5 p.m. After braving the lines, you may have to wait up to 5 hours to finally get seated.

In addition to Lucali’s Brooklyn location, the pizza shop also has aMiami outpost. The Florida location has a wider menu but in Brooklyn there are only two things on the menu: pizza and calzones. But diners can customize with a wide range of toppings including pepperoni, mushrooms and more.
The no-frills Brooklyn spot is cash only and entirely BYOB, but luckily there’s a bottle shop just up the street.
If jumping through these hoops doesn’t seem feasible, there is another option for those dying to try their pizza. Lucali’s phone lines open at 4 p.m. for takeout orders. You can also order food from the restaurant on UberEats on Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays when the restaurant isn’tasbusy.
