If you’re looking for some good pizza after an event at Barclays, or a pie that’s a bit fancier than your standard delivery place, it’s time to check out [Pizza Superstar](http://www.pizzasuperstar.com/?ref=bklyner.com).

The new brick oven pizzeria [opened last month](/blog/business/pizza-superstar-now-open-on-dean-street) at 446B Dean Street, between Flatbush and 5th Avenues, and it’s a venture from the same owner behind [Broccolino](http://www.broccolinonyc.com/?ref=bklyner.com), the Italian restaurant located right next door. They’re [serving](http://www.pizzasuperstar.com/menu/?ref=bklyner.com) calzones and pizzas in a domed, hand-made brick oven made by [Uno Forno](http://www.unoforno.com/?ref=bklyner.com), the kind currently used at gourmet NYC pizza joints [Paulie Gee’s](http://pauliegee.com/?ref=bklyner.com) and [Donatella](http://donatellanyc.com/?ref=bklyner.com).

When we stopped in to try it on a recent weeknight for dinner — they’ve also recently added lunch service — we had the space all to ourselves. They were doing a brisk delivery business though, which one of the two reviews on [Yelp](http://www.yelp.com/biz/pizza-superstar-park-slope?ref=bklyner.com) suggests may be the popular option for most neighbors in the area.

And we can see why. Though some brick oven joints don’t do delivery — like Franny’s, which only offers pick-up — we’d bet these pies would stand up to the trip. We tried the Bresaola & Rucola pie ($17) off the Pizze Speciali section of the menu, and the crust was hardy, and the layer of tomato sauce and fresh mozzarella just enough to give the pie a tangy, creamy bite but not too much to make it soggy. The peppery arugula complemented the salty slices of the cured meat, which was smartly layered on top of the greens — so often we’ve had an arugula pie that was just an unruly mess.

We also tried the Salsiccia Calzone ($16), which is filled with mozzarella, sausage, and ham. It’s not the most jam-packed calzone we’ve ever had — nor should it be — but was more simply like one of their pizzas folded in half. And as with the pizza, the crust was tender and a bit crunchy, with just a touch of charring on the outside (we could have enjoyed a bit more, though), and the filling will satisfy any salty, meaty cravings you might have. A calzone and a salad would make a very filling dinner, and you’d probably head out with leftovers. Still, next time we order, we’ll stick to the pizzas.
