“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We are beyond grateful to Pies on Nine South for their incredible generosity and quick response during our Staff Appreciation Week luncheon. After unexpectedly running out of food, they stepped up without hesitation—donating enough delicious food to feed the rest of our staff and having it ready in just 30 minutes! The service was fast, friendly, and truly above and beyond. Thank you for supporting our school and helping us celebrate the amazing teachers and staff who give so much every day. We’ll absolutely be ordering from you again! Highly recommend this place—not just for the great food, but for the amazing people behind it! 💚“

“Ordered from here when we were down 2 weeks ago. By far the best pizza in Seaside. Wish they delivered to central PA. Will be the only pizza we get while down the shore.“

“Pies Place is the best! I have been meaning to leave a review after my son’s birthday party. We ordered a ton of food and had to decrease our order by a lot last minute because of this spring weather. Our party was rained out so we didn’t really need anything. Chris was incredibly sweet and stated although they started making some of our order he would donate what we didn’t need. Not only was the pizza delicious, it was such a nice gesture all around. 10/10 recommend 😋👌🏼☺️“

“Wow! What a nice surprise! Great food and hospitality that's rare today. Authentic delicious made-to-order food and exceptional service. As first-timers, we were treated to a taste of their outstanding penne vodka and a creme-filled zepole. Wowee! We'll be back for sure. BYOB ???“

“Kept driving by this place and finally got to try it out last week. As a Chicago native, I can tell you this is what I've been looking for the past 3 years of living here. The crust does not explode in your mouth like a bunch of tiny little splinters, it's softer and doughy. The ingredients and cheese are not skimped out on either, they are fresh ingredients and plentiful at that. The only thing I would change is more sauce, but I can do that myself next order on my own. Leftovers microwaved is a no go but air fried it's just like it came out of the oven all over again. In a Jersey full of Luigi's, pick Marios, you won't be disappointed. I suggest adding the wings into your order as well, best take out wings I've had from a pizza shop, super crispy breading and juicy interior.“

“My 3 year old is autistic and will only eat certain foods which are usually chicken fingers and fries, I recently ordered myself penne in vodka sauce with chicken and to my absolute surprise my son tried a piece of the pasta and ate a whole bowl!! The food is always so flavorful and delicious! Our favorite pizza so far is the Lucy Special! The bread is so light and soft and the meatballs are to die for!! I’ve lived in manahawkin for 3 years and you guys are always our first place to recommend and order from! Their desserts always taste so fresh and those cannolis and cheesecake are to die for!!!! Sincerely, Tackle Ave!“

“Was dying to try the Detroit pie after seeing the photos in the print ad/menu, and it was delicious! The guy who took my order was so sweet, too, offering great feedback and explanations of the items. Delivery was quick for a Friday night, too.
Now, onto the star of the review: the pizza! The Detroit was delicious - the sauce, cheese and dough were all really good. Price was a bit high but really good pizza and would definitely order again!“

“Excellent prices, large portions, always delicious, never disappointed. Highly recommend!“

“Pretty sure we’ll never get pizza anywhere. So amazing to see a restaurant take “gluten free” seriously. Their gluten free pizza came on its own baking sheet to avoid cross contamination in the oven. They also didn’t cut it but instead delivered w w a plastic pizza cutter. Best part was the taste 💕. Kid approved. Thank you so much. Ordering again tonight !“

“Absolutely love the owners dearly J and Danielle are two of the sweetest people. Food is top-notch and atmosphere is excellent for dinner with the family.

Kid-friendliness: The owner Jay is super cool with the kids. Gave coloring book and crayons and actually sat and talked with them. It was awesome.“

“We had my parents 50th wedding anniversary party on Saturday in their party area at Manzano's. The two waitresses who worked the party were excellent. So sweet and on top of everything. The food was great. I had the NY Strip steak. I asked for it medium rare and it was cooked to perfection. My wife has the chicken and she loved it. My parents were so happy. They had pizza for the kids and that was great! Highly recommend them for dinner or for a private party. Big thank you to everyone who made the day special at Manzano's ❤️“

Will definitely go back and see if the pizza is as good…“

“We went here on Thanksgiving. They had their open menu as well as a Thanksgiving dinner, which was delicious. The servers worked as hard as they could. To make sure everybody got their food on time. Click on the refills of your drinks.And you were able to sit out side by the water. If you go, i'm sure you will enjoy it.“

“I ordered a sandwich and wings yesterday and unfortunately by a pure accident my sandwich had the wrong peppers on it. I called just to let them know and with no hesitation they offered to make me a new sandwich. I wasn’t able to go back yesterday because of the time but they honored it today. I am so grateful and my sandwich is delicious. Friendly staff and great food. Definitely recommend!“

“Great Service and Staff. I recently celebrated my graduation party there and the food was amazing. I highly recommend them.“

“We have been going to Black Eyed Susan's since their prior location across the street when it was BYOB and I can't believe it's actually gotten better in terms of menu and the cocktail menu is amazing too. With the addition of Marigold this summer they've reached the next level. We hope to rent it out next year for a private event. Could not recommend it enough if you're on Long Beach Island (or even if you have to drive the bridge)“

“Great experience overall. Friendly, helpful service. Placed the order over the phone, and it was ready earlier than expected. Price was good. We got a sub, canzone, mac & cheese, and zuchinni sticks. Always hard to compare when you're taking it home and not eating it in the restaurant, but the food was good. Sweet sauce. Would order from here again!“

“Had a exceptional experience with Foodies. Peggy is a pro and so creative with her food. She has such a expansive menu full of delicious options. Our cocktail party was impeccable!! The service was beyond amazing! They were so friendly and warm and really made the day extra special for us.“

“I had my party catered by Schiano’s this past weekend. The food was delicious. The staff were very accommodating and helpful in deciding the menu. Everyone also loved the freshly made bread that was included in our order. Thank you!“

“Papa john my favorite pizza 🍕“

“Great food! Great service. Warm and cozy. I asked for chocolate martinis, they were perfect.“

“Our current "post covid" go to restaurant esp since Carlos (and family) took over. Unfortunately, we have not been able to eat in since we are seniors with a couple of medical issues. Even so we are quite impressed with service & food entrées thus far. Salads are good and plenty of (olive oil) bread that is "fresh" unlike a couple of others in the area. We shall try eating in as soon as the flu/Covid/RSV, etc issues lead into a safer season. Recommend the Seafood a la Brother, Calamari and the Chicken Cacciatore.“
