Fornino to Reopen at Brooklyn Bridge Park on Memorial Day Weekend

Fornino will reopen their Brooklyn Bridge Park location at Pier 6 for takeout and delivery starting on Friday, May 22nd. The outdoor restaurant will have two pickup windows for grab and go wood-fired pizzas, salads, sandwiches and non-alcoholic beverages.

Chef and Owner Michael Ayoub reopened his Greenpoint location at 849 Manhattan Avenue on May 1st and is excited for the return of his second eatery in Brooklyn this month. He’s a veteran in the restaurant industry who began revolutionizing what makes pizza great over 15 years ago when he first opened the doors to Fornino in 2004 in Williamsburg.

The science behind Fornino's dough allows for each pizza to come out perfectly every single time, no matter the day, weather or amount of toppings. Three types of 12-inch pizzas will be on the menu including the Margherita with tomato, mozzarella, basil, olive oil and parmesan, the Calabrese with sopressata piccante, tomato, mozzarella, parmesan and oregano, and the Funghi Misti with mozzarella, caciocavallo, mixed mushroom and white truffle oil.

The Brooklyn Bridge Park Fornino location will be open on weekdays from 3pm to sunset and on weekends from 12pm to sunset weather permitting. Patrons will have the ability to order in advance through the Fornino website for pickup or to make purchases on site with contactless payment options available. Delivery will also be provided via Caviar starting May 29th. For more information, visit www.fornino.com
