WE SAY: The dive meets frat boy decor is nothing to write home about, but the free brick over pizza (which is actually REALLY good) makes it hard to pass up.
From City Search
"Pink flamingoes and swimsuit-clad mannequins jut from the walls at this pizzeria-cabana club-sports bar. Either the Alligator Lounge's identity crisis is expanding its clientele, or word has gotten out about the complimentary brick-oven pizza with every drink. Free food is the great equalizer for a friendly mixed crew of artists in paint-stained overalls, local ladies shrink-wrapped in tube tops and tight jeans, and neighborhood dads in baseball jackets. Though the pies are free, the toppings will cost you ($2 for the first, $1 for each additional), but the pepperoni and caramelized onions are hard to resist. Groups crowd into booths and wash down slices with well priced pitchers of Guinness and Stella or get more beer for their buck with pitchers of Rheingold. Regulars shoot pool and watch sports at the bar, and an easygoing rock jukebox--spanning from Steely Dan to the Shins--aids the digestive process."
From NYMetro Inside what was once the Galleria pizza place, this bar's turquoise walls, pink flamingoes and Romanesque details don't quite gel, yet one crucial feature remains intact: the arched, wood-burning oven. Because of the owners' sensational idea of serving free personal pizzas every night until 3:30am, this unremarkable joint has turned into a loveable hangout that's a great first or last barhop stop. Young and old Williamsburg folk congregate along the bar, in the maroon, open-angle vinyl booths, and around the red pool table. A booming rock 'n' roll jukebox and Big Buck Hunter II game in back provide entertainment. A selection of eight draft beers complements the delicious crisp-crust pies, which are on the house with every drink; toppings like pepperoni, caramelized onions and flavorful sweet sausage are available for an extra $2.-- Karen Hudes

The Pizza is made through a brick oven. That is all that you can say about this place. Aside from the typical frat boy frat girl crowd, alligator lounge loses ground to other bars. Its lack of good D.J's and well priced drinks makes it difficult to even go in. One thing is, that the place always has a crowd on the weekends. BUt not the kind that I want to be around.
