You know this place is cool because neighborhood hipsters wait hours to eat here. You know it’s worth the wait because the Clintons also eat here (or they did once in 2012, propelling this far-flung Bushwick pizzeria to instant fame). It would be a disservice to classify Roberta’s as a mere slice spot, though, because it also grows seasonal greens on its rooftop garden, broadcasts food-focused shows from its in-house radio station, and creates artfully composed small plates not unlike those you would find at a much more refined restaurant uptown. And, yes, the artisanal pies served in this no-frills garage are whimsically named (Cheesus Christ), perfectly chewy, and utterly delicious. Ease the wait at this no-reservations establishment by throwing back a cocktail or two at its tiki bar in the back.
