Manhattan Pizza Under Construction On CIA Near Cortelyou

It looks like a new halal pizza joint is moving into the former Lahori Gyro space at 739 Coney Island Avenue (between Cortelyou Road and Avenue C).

According to the awning, Manhattan Pizza (not to be confused with New York Pizza) will serve sub sandwiches, wings, and salads, and feature free delivery–and perhaps most importantly, the pizza promises to be jumbo. We wonder if they’ll have a $1 slice like their predecessor, and like Jr. Bella’s across the street.

A call to the number on the awning wasn’t returned, but we’ll keep an eye out for when it actually opens.
