Look at the response from the owner of this restaurant to me because he got a one star. You will be getting more one stars coming your way from what the locals know about what your business is doing. When you make a mistake you should have accountability for your actions. You should try to correct those mistakes. When you’re putting people’s lives at risk with false advertising you should choose to be better. Your responses to consumers show people exactly what they need to know I don’t need to say anything more that what you’re already showing them.

Awful customer service. Rude, literally insulting, misleading advertising. They should be shut down. Never seen anything like it. Stay away.

Their pizza is good. Their prices are crazy expensive. Not a very friendly place. They do delivery, which is a plus.

Good food at reasonable price. Hometown atmosphere. Bring your own or wine available. Traditional Italian dishes.

Pizza not worth the price crummy sauce and salty cheese they renovated but the floor in the front wasn't finished plus it's cold in

Second time disappointed. ordered a grandma pie the crust was wet and so soggy. I called to let them know and girl said sorry and I should of said well done.... a regular crust should not be like trying to pick up soup!! Gave a second chance that enough for us.

The food is divine but it is no longer worth the bad service or the demeanor of the management. I've been a pretty regular face in there the last 15 years and in the past few years have noticed a pretty passive aggressive attitude whenever I go in there. If I order a calzone over the phone, it's 50/50 I'm going to get one or they make a Stromboli instead and try to push it on me. They don't offer to remake it and will charge you full price for the thing you didn't order anyways, and they'll get passive aggressive if you ask them to remake properly. This has happened to me about five times in the past few months and has made the prospect of eating there dreadful. It breaks my heart, as I grew up going there as my primary pizza place, but I just don't want to have a consistently bad experience. Pizza is supposed to be a happy thing, and it's not that at Rodolfos anymore.

I don't frequent this place as much as I should. Food is always good/fresh and the staff friendly...but for some reason I end up getting pizza closer to where I used to live...I guess just out of habit and familiarity...Last weekend however I didn't feel like driving far and Rodolfo's was one of the few places open without the shortened holiday hrs on Sunday. Ordering thru their online portal is very easy. I like the fact that the online menu has a picture of the items so you see what you are getting. I ended up ordering a vodka grandma pie and a grandma half sausage and half pepperoni. The times I have ordered here I generally get round pies...this was my first time getting their grandma. Rodolfo's didn't disappoint. Vodka sauce was amazing as well as the toppings on the other pie. A little different from other grandmas I have had...Brothers Pizza in Staten Island and Joey D's in Metuchen both have very thin grandmas pie crusts which is what I am used to...Rodolfo's is a little thicker. Not think like a Sicilian slice (I am not a Sicilian slice guy) this grandma probably 1/2" thick maybe 1/3" thick...crispy and a little airy towards the middle of the slice...Their red sauce is very flavorful and garlicky which I like. They also pack their pizzas in a Rodolfo's branded box. It's all about the details. Most run of the mill places just use a Roma paper products box...never understood why more places don't put their name on pizza boxes...it's advertising all the way up to the time the trash man picks it up...but back to the pizza...they have a really good slice here. I sent some pictures to a friend of mine and she ended up going this past weekend to get a few grandma pies for her kids and husband all the way from North Brunswick just based on my pictures alone...I have only gotten take out here but there is in door dining. I have never tried it but they sell gelato here too. I highly recommend grabbing a pie from here. South Plainfield gem.

So I came in for quick slice of pizza for my son and stuffed shells for myself. Ordered at the front at 3 pm. My son got his pizza and I got the salad. 31 minutes later nothing has been even approached. I asked the woman at the front where the order is and she goes I'm still waiting. The person I suspect to be a manager based on him making decisions to get more of their soda ordered. He sat in the dining room for 30 minutes like I did, probably on his break which is fine, but seeing that I asked the question and did nothing. Pre paid a tip with the clover system they have. Walking out and the manager still says nothing. I highly advise you think twice or eating in person

Tried this place out today for the first time and it was great!!! Best thing about it is that they have a dedicated keto menu for people on that diet. It is a very low key place that serves dine in, take out, delivery, and they even have gelato. Definitely going back again.
