7. L & B Spumoni Gardens
Founded in: mid-1950s
Situated in Brooklyn, L & B Spumoni Gardens started in 1939 when the owner, Ludovico Barbati decided he wanted a place to spell spumoni, a traditional Italian ice cream. Later, he built another building alongside which is now the pizzeria we know today. Although to be more precise it is not just a pizzeria, it is known as the Dining Room, where along with great pizza a wide variety of food is sold.
