50 Best Pizza Restaurants near Monmouth Beach

“Food is always great a Gianni’s. I guess a lot of people feel that was because wait time is long.“

“What a hidden gem! A small, cozy, family-run restaurant with an exceptionally high level of quality and attention to detail. The pizza from their tabun oven is absolutely incredible, honestly some of the best I’ve had outside of Italy.

And don’t let the focus on pizza fool you. Their pastas, ravioli, and other dishes are just as impressive and made to the same high standard.

The prices are extremely reasonable for this level of food, especially compared with many places charging much more for far less quality. Amazing value for money, a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and genuinely wonderful people. Wishing this family lots of success. They truly deserve it!“

“Great food! The Burgers are amazing!!“

“Wow the pizza was amazing. Love the thin crust, the sauce was good. Just yummy. Next time I’d only order just pepperoni cause the bacon was just ok. We ordered an appetizer of fried ravioli (skip appetizers, just get pizza. Trust me) the vibes of the place were great after a day in the ocean.“

“We ate at Franny’s yesterday after attending a scouting merit badge class nearby. Everything was amazing. We communicated ahead of time to ensure they could accommodate our party of 16 and were able to place our order ahead of time too. Everything was seamless as we walked in with a table ready and the pizza immediately arrived fresh from the oven. The pizza was a perfect crispy thin crust and thoroughly enjoyed by everyone. The staff was friendly and attentive. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“We order peel every week. The pizza is consistently very good, both their regular pies and speciality pies. We are even more impressed by their other food including pasta dinners, the Caesar Wrap and the Chicken Parm sub (our favorite with great bread and amazing fresh moz). The people are very super friendly and delivery is always fast. 2 years in ocean now and we’ve tried every spot and settled on Peel.“

They are family to us all!“

“They’re around the corner but so are tons of other pizza places. They always deliver way sooner than they say and in great shape. I prefer restaurants that have their own delivery service instead of delivery apps because if there is an issue, they immediately fix it. You’re getting it straight from them! Great food!“

“So, we’re from boston and are visiting my son. Not too much to choose from around here in terms of restaurants. But suddenly I see a sign Minas Grill and went in just because of the word grill.

So we’ll be back while we’re here.“

Everyone was so accommodating and made sure our delicious pizza was ready as soon as we we heading out! Thankful for the wonderful folks that work there and the great pizza!“

“Went over to see the new and improved slices in the new location, brand new , clean, and the food is always delicious. Saw the owner wished him good luck on the new location. Shook my hand and said thank you back. Let’s not forget his years of service to raising the bar for the Jersey shore area. The manger Ron , the pizza chef Israel have always done whatever I ask for. Totally accommodating my family for 25 plus years. Always with a smile! No reason to look elsewhere ever again!! Thanks again and good luck 🍀!!!“

“first week Enzo opened I ordered a cali cheese steak. it was so full of meat the lady gave me a fork. after that when the owner made the subs he barely put meat .“

“Got a pepperoni slice and a coke for $6. Slice was pretty big, alot of cheese and a lot of pepperoni which made it too heavy for the crust so I had to fold it. Very greasy but that's from all the pepperoni so id rather it be greasy with a lot of meat then not as much. Definitely will go back“

“Vegan or not, some of the best pizza I’ve ever had! It’s a must try but be sure to order early, they sell out in no time! Love all the staff, just great people making great pizza. Can’t wait for the next time!“

“Great food! Friendly and quick service!“

“Been a customer for twenty years. Solid BYOB Italian restaurant with a veteran staff. Owner and general manager are always present. Ownership changed 9 years ago. Very good fresh pastas. I’m totally a fan of their main marinara sauce. Sometimes I’ve asked for it on the side. My wife and I have liked the seafood pasta panadora. I tend to order a lot of salads and I’ve tried most of them. My favorite is their chopped salad ($18). Sometimes I get it with the chicken option. I really like their own salad dressing. It’s a little different. The Greek salad is really good too. The braised slow cook short ribs are very popular; a long time specialty item. Their lunch menu is very reasonable. Surprisingly good burgers and sandwiches. I’m particularly a fan of their tuna sandwich, with several variations. I have found the service to always be excellent. I noticed their bread has been outstanding. Owner said they invested in a new ovens from Italy✅ Their homemade carrot cake is excellent, and I’m fussy when it comes to carrot cake, my favorite😀 Great location in downtown Red Bank on Wallace Street, which is not busy. There is municipal parking nearby. Keep in mind you generally have to pay in Red Bank unless you’re willing to walk a bit. Also, a special mention goes out to special events. They’re particularly good at parties. They scale well to what the needs of the event. It can be simple to full sit-down dinner or buffet.“

“Great food, great people. W pizzeria overall, would recommend. Shoutout to my man Ryan.“

“There food and service is phenomenal! Highly recommend visiting!! We had the pleasure of eating their delicious food at the Stone Pony during a concert. The staff is so friendly and the food never disappoints!!“

“Stopped at Val's Tavern because we had a 2 hour gap between a wedding and reception. Service was excellent and so was the food. Our server, Gabby, went above and beyond when we needed some Tylenol. HIGHLY recommend Val's!“

“Food is fantastic! Lots of artisan creations on super delicious bread! We are not vegan or even vegetarian but grab a bite here everytime we are in Asbury Park. Never disappointed!“

“I am hoping it was just a fluke but got a pizza from here this past weekend and it just doesn't taste the same. I think the cheese mixture has changed or someone forgot some spice or something. I will try again since they have had the best pizza since Seaview mall.“

“Amazing amazing amazing amazing food! I am doing a happy dance“

“Clean friendly and fun! Great for the family“

“They normally have as more thinner pizza, for their peppers and onion pizza, but today the pizza was a little thicker. So so good with the peepers and onions and with sausage onit. Very very good. I just wish the price was under $4 dollars, or I would have gotten 2 slices. Still was worth it for me though.

Wheelchair accessibility: I would say it is, since plenty of room to move around inaide.“

“My husband and I ate here last night. Great food and service.“

“Great food, everything is fresh and homemade, staff is super friendly, a great place to order from or just grab on the go. And they have a great Coke I never had before, not the same Mexican coke we buy in store, really good if you like coke from your childhood (back in the 70's, lol).“
