    Salad was tasty. Pizza was fine but unremarkable, in my opinion (e.g., prosciutto was so thickly sliced as to border on cold cut ham). Our server attended to us as though we were a bother to her leisurely fraternizing with friends or other servers (?) at the bar area--hospitality skills were lacking. The hostess was quite lovely and accommodating to our needs. But overall, the experience just did not measure up to competing similar priced restaurants in the Brooklyn pizzariasphere--try Graziella's or Barboncino, Il Porto or Parkside for comparison, all far superior in my opinion.

    We were in for the weekend and booked a reservation for Shelter Pizza. After driving to it and looking for parking, we walked to the restaurant and it was CLOSED!! I do not know if the food and service is good or not. I can tell you that Management is not very good and don't keep hours updated to prevent people from wasting their time deiving to a closed restaurant.

    I'm a former patron of El Almacen (closed) Rosarito Fish Shack and Shelter since the day that it was started Stopped going to all of them a while ago due to mediocre food, horrible service and cocktails that were watered down They also changed the staff very often due to payments problems as per former employees Decided to give a chance to Shelter today but the experience was horrible We ordered cocktails that were pure water and ingredients were missing Ordered ham and cheese empanada a salad and a corn in addition to main courses and they brought them all together Sent back my skirt steak and clearly requested to have a new one done when finished with my appetizer Requested one Ham and CH empanada and got two beef empanadas Sent them back Two soggy pizzas bland and my skirt steak was the same item brought first by mistake and it was just warm and rubbery Sent this back and requested to talk with the manager This place is a real mess Horrible food, watered down cocktails and no AC in the middle of summer Cheap owners that do not care about customers Will never return to this place

    The worst restaurant experience in a long time. I am a sure the food was good, but I cannot be certain because I never got my order. After 45 minutes watching our waiter talk to his friends while several other tables had to walk up to him to get checks, we finally threw in the towel. Had to tell the hostess to cancel our order and bring our check for our drinks. At least they comped the drinks. So I would advise hesitancy to go here. Instead, do what we did. Walk to La Nonna where we were treated like royalty and had some damn good pizza.

    Terrible fish, very long wait to place our order, and everything came at once. Also, had to flag down a server for each request, whether for water, to order, to get the check etc. sad because I really liked this place on previous occasions. Their chicken empanadas were still great though.

    Arrived at 8PM. Ordered immediately and order easy things (One pizza, one burger, and four empanadas) because we were starving and had young kids with us. Got our drinks rather quickly, but they forgot my husband‘s beer. The beer arrived 15 minutes later and it was warm. Around 8:30 PM another waiter, who was not our original waiter, came by all of the tables and was explaining that the kitchen was very behind and that our food would be out next. I asked him if we could get the check, because we didn’t want to miss the fireworks. He brought the check immediately and I paid. Getting the check and paying the check was by far the fastest service we received. By 9 PM, we still had not received our food. When I went to inquire, because nobody had checked on us since 8:30, The only person I found was the hostess. I asked her if it was possible to check on the status of our food, since 75% of the tables were now empty. She replied, “I don’t know what you want me to do, I’m just the hostess. You’ll have to find a server.” We waited 20 more minutes and not ONE shelter pizza staff member was around. Finally, around 9:25 PM, a kitchen staff member brought out the food. He was apologetic, which was appreciated; however, because it was so late, we had to scarf it down. The food is a blur. Couldn’t even tell you how it tasted. My husband‘s empanadas were rockhard. Again, I never saw the server. We just got up and left. My kids missed the fireworks (which was literally the only reason we drove into Brooklyn) and we drove the hour home hungry and frustrated. My brother lives in Brooklyn and we have close friends that live three blocks from shelter pizza. Unfortunately, this is not a place I would recommend to either of them or would visit again when we are in the area.
