About
More Than Just Pizza
Growing up in Brooklyn, NY, Italian-American cooking was the heart of our community and our home. It was all about family gatherings, hearty meals, and recipes passed down through generations. We ate dishes that were rich, flavorful, and comforting—like Sunday sauce simmering on the stove, the aroma of freshly baked bread filling the air, and the satisfaction of a perfectly cooked meatball. This was more than just food; it was a way of life, a way to bring our family together.
In 2012, we brought our nostalgic Italian homestyle cooking, recipes, and flavor to Brooklyn Heights, and stayed true to those cherished traditions. With that, we combined the unique concept of the coal-fired slice. Before Table 87, if you wanted a taste of authentic coal-fired pizza in Brooklyn, you had to commit to an entire pie. We changed that. Today, we continue to honor our roots in Italian-American cooking, bringing the same passion and love to every dish we prepare, whether it’s a classic coal fired pizza or a homestyle Italian favorite.
In 2014, we took that commitment further by freezing our beloved slice, vacuum-sealing it, and making it possible to share the taste of authentic coal-fired pizza beyond Brooklyn. Our frozen slices and pies quickly gained recognition, and in 2016, we appeared on Shark Tank, a moment that helped us become a household name in frozen pizza.
Today, Table 87 has three Brooklyn locations, serving coal-fired pizza by the slice and homestyle Italian cooking, and a dedicated frozen pizza manufacturing facility that brings real Brooklyn pizza to pizza lovers nationwide. From our neighborhood in Brooklyn to homes across America, we’re proud to share our love for genuine, quality pizza—one slice at a time.
Our Purpose
At Table 87, our purpose is simple: to bring people together over great food that feels as familiar as home. Our restaurants are more than places to eat—they’re comfortable, welcoming spaces where tradition meets innovation, and every meal is made with genuine care. We’re committed to preserving the rich flavors of Italian-American cooking while making it accessible to everyone, near and far.
With Table 87 Frozen, we’ve taken that same commitment beyond our Brooklyn locations, creating a unique coal-fired frozen pizza that allows anyone, anywhere, to enjoy the taste of real Brooklyn pizza. It’s about sharing more than just a meal; it’s about sharing our roots, our passion, and the true taste of what pizza should be.
