Great food and service. It's one of my favorite places!
Best Italian food, good friendly service.
Great food, really enjoyed the pizza, sandwiches, and garlic knots.
Best pizza in town, hands down. Family owned
Smoked moz with shrimp pie is incredible
The food is good and there is a homey feeling to it.
Best pizza in the area without a single doubt. I’m very critical when it comes to pizza and this place absolutely nails what New York/Jersey pizza is all about. Phenomenal pizza, atmosphere, and the owner Todd is an absolute class act. Couldn’t recommend this place more.
Fried chicken on weekends really hits the spot. Crispy not greasy and perfectly cooked. Great crinkle fries. Always a pleasant and filling (literally) experience.
Kid-friendliness: They love the kids. Very family oriented and owner and staff meets everyone with friendly hellos and graciousness. Always leave with full belly and ☺

So my husband and I went here for a dinner date night the other night. We have gotten take out pizza before but never dine-in. We were seated and our waitress, Isabella, was amazing. When we got bread for the table there was more than enough butter pats included in the basket, which seems like a small detail but it’s a pet peeve when u get half a baguette and not nearly enough butter and have to keep asking for more. We love calamari but I have not had it in years because I am allergic to shellfish (developed later in life) and restaurants always fry the calamari in the same oil as shellfish since it is seafood. My husband ordered it for himself but asked if they fried it in the same oil as shrimp. Isabella started that they did but they had no problem frying it in another fryer this time as they have 3. I actually broke down crying and thanked her profusely as no restaurant has ever offered to do that. I then got to have the most delicious and melt in your mouth calamari I have ever had in my life with no reaction. I ordered a Stromboli and extra dipping sauce. I was not expecting the HUGE bowl of sauce I got (pictured). All food was amazing. Isabella was amazing.

I wish I could say better. I ordered a mushroom with a salad with grilled chicken. I'm sorry, I get turned off with canned mushrooms. Sauce was good. But couldn't bare to eat the mushrooms. Also the canned olives in the salad. The Cucumbers tasted like mold and the tomatoes I couldn't even eat. I gave the rest to my dog. I was very disappointed ?
Excellent food! Local pizzeria ran by a local resident. The atmosphere makes you feel like you're eating with family. Great prices, the service is spot on!

Food is good but service is trash. Ordered on slice at 4:57, delivery was set to arrive at 5:38. Great 6pm rolls by no food. Contact slice and they say restaurant said it's on the way. Fantastic, it's close by. 6:15pm no food still reach out to slice again they assure us the restaurant told them it's on the way. We live under ten minutes away, so this is not sitting right with me. I call the restaurant myself at 6:19 they had not yet even STARTED our food. So either slice was lying or the restaurant, either way it had been over an hour and they hadn't made an order of French fries and two COLD subs. Used to frequently order but lately every delivery has been late and this just solidified that I will no longer be spending my money with them. Can't support local when the food never shows up.

Been going for over 30 years. Best most consistent place in town by far! I recommend picking up because delivery takes forever. Other than that Todd is a good guy and hard worker!
