La Rose is a mostly take-out pizza place, but don't try to eat a slice at this Cobble Hill spot standing up. Like all the best pizza from Michigan, the Detroit-style pies here have ladlefuls of drip-prone red sauce, and a hot, almost-burnt, crispy cheese crust. Add on toppings like pepperoni and stracciatella, and you’ve got yourself a complex creation that requires a chair—or at least a seat at the tiny counter inside or the small table out front.
The pizzas can get pretty involved here, with everything from meatballs or fennel sausage, to anchovies and boquerones on one slice—but we tend to like the ones with simpler combinations. Order at least one of the white pies as well as the Dirty Martini, which is even better than its name suggests. On a nice day, add a few Peronis to your order and head down to Brooklyn Bridge Park.
