    Mmmmmmm

    Reading the reviews of the people that were not too taken with Brozzetti's, their descriptions of the sweet crust & sauce, American cheese.... that's what makes the pizza so delicious! I agree too, it is good hot, cold or in between!

    I have not lived in the area for about 27 years now but every time I go back home the FIRST thing I want is Brozzetti's pizza!!! They make party size so my family will have 2 or 3 different varieties of them waiting. Straight from the airport to where the pizza is! Mushroom is my favorite. Finely chopped fungal deliciousness!! My daughters absolutely love this pizza too & will mention it every so often.

    I even went as far as bringing along my vacuum sealer last time I was home so I could package the pizza to take back to KS with me in my suitcase!

    As mentioned, it is take out only, no delivery. They also have drinks & chips for purchase. I don't agree that just the hospital up the street keeps this place alive.... many many people all around love their pizza.

    I don't know about YELP's filtered reviews! I understand the reason for it but when I searched on Brozzetti's to write a review and they had such a low star rating, I was confused. It looks like many of the low ratings are not from locals who truely know, grew up with & appreciate Brozzetti's. Although everyone is entitled to their opinion, local or not, I then read the FILTERED reviews that do not have an effect on the star rating (I'm hoping mine is not filtered as I have been posting on Yelp for a long time.) and on the filtered page, the ratings are all 4 & 5 stars!

    So.. when checking out Yelp reviews, remember to take a peek at the filtered postings if there are any!

    Oh my gosh! The pictures are making me hungry!!!

    Out of all of the pizza places in the triple cities this is my least favorite. Their sauce is way too sweet and their cheese is not meant for real pizza. Nothing against the proprietors. Just telling it like it is from my perspective

    I came back to Binghamton 4 years after graduating. One of the main reasons was to try Brozzetti's pizza. I never heard of it before - but it is apparently legendary!

    It sits in back of the hospital in JC, and like many people who choose to drink the water in Binghamton, it is kept ALIVE by the people of the hospital in JC.  There are no tables, so you will invariably be eating with locals in the parking lot beside hospital workers taking a smoke break out of sight of their bosses (and lung cancer patients).

    I wouldn't even say it's a step up from Elios. It is one of those crappy pizzas so unique that once in a while you get that taste in your mouth's mind and can't get it out until you have another slice. The crust is chewy, and by the end of the rectangle pie the slices are just worthless. The sauce is a grade below Hunt's catsup and the cheese is a blend of 2 of the cheapest cheeses at the Giant.

    For some strange reason I want some now. Damn these masochistic taste buds!

    To experience Brozzetti's pizza, FORGET your preconceptions about what pizza should be.  

    As a Broome County native, it's always been a sweet diversion from the Nirchi's and Pudgie's (remember Pudgie's?) pizza that I had countless times throughout my childhood.

    SWEET, that's the word that describes this unusual and delicious pizza.  I think it's the dough that's sweet- I used to have debates with friends about was it the dough or the sauce that's sweet.  

    Try it yourself to decide!  I'll never forget the phone number-thanks to the radio commercials that played constantly in the 80's. "797-9960-call Brozzetti's for pizza to go!"

    Brozetti's is the greatest sheet pizza I've ever had. I live in Maryland and have to get a hot pepperoni sheet everytime I visit my family in Binghamton. There is nothing out there in the world that tastes like Brozetti's. You have to try it if you've never tasted.

    I recently had this pizza at a party. It was one of the weirdest pizzas I have ever tasted. The dough was sweet and soft and unlike any other pizza dough I had ever tasted. The cheese tasted and looked like melted American cheese, and I'm pretty sure that's what it was. The sauce was a sweet tomato sauce.

    It reminded me of the taste of something I made once when I was bored using a toaster, pizza crust, American cheese, and tomato sauce.

    This is not traditional pizza at all. Don't expect to be eating traditional pizza when you go here or you will be disappointed.

    Overall, I did enjoy the pizza. It wasn't what I was used to and it wasn't the best, but I thought it was interesting. Definitely worth a try!

    No doubt the BESt pizza hot, cold, for breakfast whatever.
    Whenever I make it back east from sunny CA I make sure I get my fill of Brozzetti's. Reasonably priced.

    In comparison to other "sheet pizza" establishments (Nirchi's, Guiseppe's, etc.) this place takes the cake. Good but not great, people only continue to talk about this place because of it's catchy slogan "call 9960 for a pizza to go"... If you want good pizza in the southern tier try villa pizza (or whatever the new name is" in the Oakdale Mall.. Otherwise Mario's pizza is the way to go.

    well after a trip to the emegency room for a case of stupid (it involved a spot light and an old wooded ladder) I tried brozzettis again.   I remebered the pizza as pretty good to excellent.   However, that memory may have been damaged in my fall.   I do admit it was great to eat anything after my ordeal in the emergency room.  But Im not sure if this is even really pizza.  Its basically wonderbread with ragu sauce and american cheese.   It reminded me of something I would make a college when I ran low on grocery money.

    Awful.. Just simply awful. Tastes like ketchup or chef boyardee sauce on cardboard. To call this pizza is an atrocity. Pizza in Binghamton is definitely sub par compared to NYC style, but even for the popular sheet style pizza in the area, take a pass. Get a box of Ellios and it will be much better.

    Not what it used to be.  Unique pizza but  TOO EXPENSIVE for what you get.  Want a good pizza this size and shape go to Cortese.
