Pizza Rating:
Franny's was ranked number 10 in the recent Time Out pizza review, so this weekend, while my sisters were visiting, we made a trip to nearby Prospect Heights to see for ourselves. It ended up being very different from the other places we've reviewed. Upon first impression Franny's had a lot of hip potential, considering its exposed brick, eco-friendly philosophies, and trendy minimalistic menu. But in the end, it was pretty expensive—a little too "Manhattan wine bar" rather than "Brooklyn pizzeria" for our taste—and, to be honest, a little bland. AJ's choice was by far the best: the white Buffalo Mozzarella, Garlic, Olive Oil, and Sea Salt combo. The regular Buffalo and Tomato pizza could have used a little spice. But the crust was thin and bubbly and the wood-burning oven gave it a delicious Italian-true flavor.

AJ's pizza gave me serious entrée envy.
