The Story Behind Focaris Pizza in Lynbrook
Focaris is a Neapolitan pizzeria on Merrick Road in Lynbrook, NY. Every pie is a 12-inch individual pizza, hand-stretched from dough we make in-house and baked in our brick oven with homemade mozzarella. Start with focaccia or a Caprese, add a plate of fresh pasta, and finish with tiramisù or a Nutella pizza. We are open Tuesday through Sunday for lunch, weekend brunch and dinner, with a full bar, takeout and delivery.
Focaris Pizza is an Italian restaurant on Merrick Road in Lynbrook, NY, specializing in Neapolitan-style pizza, brick oven cooking, and handmade pasta. Our story began with two brothers who spent more than a decade working in Manhattan’s Italian and kosher restaurants, developing their craft and learning what makes a meal memorable.
Through those years, we discovered a particular love for Neapolitan-style pizza: its delicate texture, simple ingredients, and the way dough and fire come together to create flavor. That passion inspired us to build a restaurant of our own.
We brought our vision to Lynbrook with a simple idea: make food with care and create a welcoming place where people can enjoy it together.
At Focāris, Italian tradition inspires what we make. From our dough and fresh pasta to the dishes we share with our guests, our approach centers on handmade food, thoughtfully chosen ingredients, and real fire. We believe a memorable meal begins with patience, attention, and pride in the craft.
Whether you visit for pizza, share pasta around the table, or pick up dinner to enjoy at home, we want you to experience the hospitality that inspired us from the beginning.
Focāris is a place to gather, share a meal, and feel at home in Lynbrook.
Two brothers. One passion. Real fire. Handmade food.
