I have to admit, being a native Brooklynite, I never got down to Totonno's until recently. As it turned out I wasn't missing anything. For all the hype and history surrounding Totonno's, it falls flat on so many levels.
Yes the crust is thin (which is good), but the sauce was very runny and made the crust soggy. Except for an over abundance of garlic (too much in fact), there was no other taste to the sauce.
The service was abrupt and rude...moreso than your typical Brooklyn attitude. We were yelled at to wait outside when we got there even though we already had a table inside (friends were there).
