50 Best Pizza Restaurants near Stanhope

“We have been coming to Sals for long long time. The food especially the Cheese Steak sandwich and fries are the best. When it’s cold outside Sal makes a pasta fagioli that’s out of this world. Don’t forget the zepoles. Thanks Sal and son, for making Sal’s Pizzaria a great place to sit down and eat a slice of pizza and enjoy a glass of wine to go with it. 👍“

“Picked up a pie half plain half mushroom and onion. The crust was crumbly like an ingredient was missing or something. Very wierd first time I've ever had this experience with pizza ,anywhere. Have had food here before and although I was never like," that place is the best". This was my first disappointment with the food.
Editing review:
Giving them 4 stars as I received a quick response from the owner regarding our review and disappointment with the pizza. They offered to make the situation right and stated they value our business. We will give them another try. It's clear they care about their customers.“

“Horrible experience worst service I ever had to many people and people didn’t know what to do and not a friendly atmosphere I wouldn’t go back“

“Five’s all around for this amazing pizza! We have ordered whole pies and sometimes simply a whole mess of slices. Each time it’s delish! The owner & staff are so friendly & helpful. It’s a cozy seating area….which would earn a “5” if there were a few more booths! Give it a try….you won’t be disappointed ❤️🍕“

“Buffalo Chicken pizza with Blue Cheese drizzle was delicious. Great, friendly service...“

“Small family run restaurant that is my go-to for local delivery and pickups. Always great food and on weekends they make special desserts. The pizza is great too, And I’m a classic Jersey pizza snob and it passes my tests well enough. Always friendly service, and when I call for delivery it’s here faster than the timeline they give.

Parking: Beyond enough parking and easy to enter the store.“

“Haven’t been in 30 years but just as excellent as it was back in high school. Fantastic pizza! Wish I lived closer“

“Thank you Sapori for the amazing food you made for my family Father's Day party!

Many Blessings to your family from Ken & JoAnne Betz xo“

“A Hidden Gem in Wharton That Keeps Getting Better!

This evening we had a truly wonderful dinner at Reno’s Pizzeria and Restaurant in Wharton, NJ. From start to finish, everything about our visit was top-notch. Our server, Shirley, was incredibly attentive—friendly, prompt, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. What really stood out, though, was that Reno himself came by to check in and ensure we were enjoying our evening. It’s not every day you see that level of care and pride from an owner, and it absolutely elevated the experience.

We started with two fantastic appetizers—the eggplant rollatini and little neck clams in marinara sauce. Both were delicious, fresh, and beautifully prepared. For entrees, we chose the mahi mahi in mango sauce special and the shrimp scampi over linguini. Each dish was cooked to perfection and seasoned just right. Compliments to the chef—truly excellent work in the kitchen!

We ended our meal on a sweet note with the mini cannolis, which were perfectly crispy and bursting with flavor.

Although Reno’s (formerly Maria’s) has been a staple in town for some time, their recent expansion into a charming sit-down dining area has added so much to the local dining scene. It’s cozy, welcoming, and a perfect spot for a relaxed and satisfying dinner. Reno’s is a real asset to Wharton, and we’ll definitely be back! (PS It's BYOB!)“

“Staff is very friendly and everything I’ve eaten there is fantastic. The wings are the best I’ve ever had in the area. This restaurant is a definite go to. Keep up the great work.“

“Have ordered from Anthony Francos many times and everything was delicious. their grilled chicken and vergetables is outstanding and my family orders it every time we cater. Great pizza, great eggplant. Have never had anything from them that was not the best! Love this place!“

“Great pizza! Awesome delivery driver, Mark. He handles the delivery with care. we never get a messed up cheese pie ,from shifting around, from the drive over. they are always earlier then they state which I love. The only problem I ever have is my dog trying to escape with the driver, she so would go for a car ride .🤣. thank you Joe & Anthony for great service.“

“I loved this experience very good. The real tall blond lady helped me with my walker and walked me to the door. Such a kind and caring soul on gods green earth. Blessed thy heart!“

“The food here is outstanding & delicious! You must try the Sicilian Grandma's Pizza. The crust was amazing as is how they make a Sicilian slice of pizza. It's the right balance of crust and fresh ingredients without it being overpowered with dough. The salad we had was delicious too. Everything so far we had here is just phenomenal as is the customer service, staff & owner. Definitely go and check it out!“

“best food in Chester hands down! I recommend this place to everybody“

“Fantastic couple who owns and operates the restaurant. Love the base red sauce flavor, warning though that it’s on the sweeter side.

Great pizza. Wife loves the penne vodka.

They also make Italian desserts for the holidays for takeout sale.“

“Amazing food always!! I wish I could remember the name of the server but I had him today around 1pm. He did an amazing job! He was very kind to my mom and I. He also made sure to check on us! That means a lot because I was having a rough day and having good service help make it better!“

“Today was our first visit here and we will definitely be coming back. Their Sicilian pizza is super delicious. I can’t wait to go home and try their cannolis.❤️❤️“

“My daughter and her friends had their secret Santa lunch at Vinny’s right before the holidays and everything was delicious!!! Also always had great friendly service then and when we frequently get take out“

“Awesome pizza and wings are phenomenal. Everything fresh and great. The rumors of them closing is false! Ignore the for sale sign as building is for sale, but business is fully operational and going strong! Stop on by! Support local businesses.“

“Can't believe I haven't written a review for this place yet I have been going to luigi's forever and i have tried plenty of other pizza joints definitely no others that come close, even my girlfriend of 5 years who has always hated pizza looks forward to our luigi's run once a week! On top of the food being the best the staff is among the most personable i've seen in any buisness, they are friends with everyone i see in there, such a great place!“

“Last night I had chicken francese at Franks. I like plenty of lemon tast and that is how it arrived Portion size allowed take home for today“

“Carmine's is our go to place whenever we crave Italian or a cheesesteak. Husband and I were there yesterday for late lunch. Excellent pasta fagioli soup, huge slices of pizza, and overstuffed, cheesesteak. Great service and reasonable prices. We were informed there is an extra charge if you're not paying cash. This is becoming a common practice and we were informed of it. Server was excellent and made us feel welcome. I was asked if I knew of any pizza parlors served gluten free and of course I recommended Carmine's.“

“We recently had catering from Uncle Sal's Pizza in Budd Lake for our large Christmas party, and we were thoroughly impressed with the experience. Their catering menu is incredibly extensive, offering us a wide array of options to choose from. With a large number of guests and various dietary restrictions to consider, it was our first time hosting a party and having food catered for us. We collaborated with the restaurant to create a diverse menu that accommodated everyone's needs while ensuring we had just the right amount of food.We greatly appreciated the restaurant's guidance to prevent us from over-ordering. They delivered the food promptly and assisted us in setting everything up seamlessly. However, what truly stood out was the quality of the food. Every item was outstanding, and our guests couldn't stop raving about it. Many asked where we had ordered the food, as it was not only delicious but also served hot and fresh.We will undoubtedly turn to Uncle Sal's Pizza for all our future catering needs. Their pricing was also very reasonable, making it a fantastic value for the exceptional food and service they provided. Uncle Sal's Pizza in Budd Lake is a reliable choice for making any event a success. Highly recommended!“

“We order from Sonny’s more than we would like to admit. Over the weekend, I last minute ordered a grilled chicken salad to go. It was a busy day, and they forgot the chicken. We called and were ready to just drive back and go grab it. They immediately said they were giving it to their delivery driver to add to his drop off. They didn’t have to do that, and we really appreciated it- they definitely did right by us. Also, have to recommend the pierogi pizza and chicken Marsala pizza!“

“Love there pizzas ..highly reccomend ❤“

“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 ☺“

“Great food, family friendly dining. Love this local treasure“

“DELISH! I ordered a full tray of chicken Parm and of baked ziti. My family devoured everything and asked to take a dish home. Very generous servings and delicious. The phone order was soooo nice and the delivery was timely. I would recommend for your next catering need.“

“Muy buena comida me encanta la pizza y las alitas de pollo con picante“

“Amazing owners! Best experience ever so far! What a kind humble people! Great food too! We couldn’t ask for a better night!“

“By far the best pizza I’ve ever had! The crust is not dry like most places. They have ruined pizza for me anywhere else!!“

“Thank you, George and staff Always aiming to make things right.“

“We always love ordering from La Gratella. For big parties we like to order a tray of Cavatelli and Broccoli with chicken in their garlic sauce, it's absolutely delicious! Their lunch specials are also great, my favorite is the chicken francese sub!“

“Excellent food! Friendly atmosphere as well?“

“ordered a tomato pie and Italian sub, the pizza was fantastic and the sub had fresh quality meats and the roll was terrific. I would highly recommend this place to any one who enjoys authentic Italian food. Nice job.“

“We recently had our Cross Country banquet and the food was from Anthony Franco’s. It was delicious! The kids devoured the pizza and the salad was very fresh. Thank you so much!“

“Great Food and Great People 😊“

“Nick and family are amazing. I've been getting pizza, pasta, salad, and sides from Roman's pizza for years now. Always ALWAYS GOOD food, always delivered on time with a smile, always super tasty. Their pizza and pasta is really great but pro tip, their salad is always super fresh!! Also try their wings, ugh so good. Thank you guys, will continue to order from you for years and years. You are the best!“

“Pepperoni pizza is a flavorful masterpiece, with a perfect balance of toppings on a deliciously crispy crust. The service is friendly and efficient, making every visit a pleasure. Whether you're a local or a visitor, this pizzeria is a must-try for authentic Italian pizza lovers.“

“Really great slice. I started visiting Chester 25 years ago as a young kid. The thinner than average crust at Bella's stood out to me even then, but still feels true to NJ Style pizza which I strictly classify and golden brown and crispy crust/bottom which achieves those wonderful golden brown micro bubbles. I'm normally skeptical of pizza joints which use a mesh tray to cook, however this place is quite the exception. The mesh tray might be their secret to that really awesome bake on their crust.“
