A new pizzeria in Midwood opened its doors last Sunday to serve all of Brooklyn residents.

What makes "Florencia" unique is that it has a Kosher menu and offers gluten free options. Kosher food follows the Jewish dietary standards, which separates meat and dairy products.

“We have a huge variety," Yossef Azizo told News 12. "We have over 30 different toppings for pies every single day. We have a full kitchen menu. We have ceviche, pasta, salads, fries, appetizers. We have a very big menu and we do catering."

Azizo told News 12 this is one of the many chains of restaurants he has in Brooklyn and in the tri-state, and he is excited to further spread his passion in Midwood. He even put a "mezuzah," which is a Jewish scripture rolled up to be hung on the wall, in his restaurant to always protect it.
