Been a while since I been back. Used to go here often with my in-laws when they lived in Waldwick.
Place hasn't changed. Still great food, ambience and service at reasonable prices . The Nellies Pizza (everything) is still as good as always. Wife n daughter both had GF options and we all shared a GF lava cake dessert. Everything they had was awesome as well. And BTW very good coffee too. Like really really Good.

Thin crust pizza, mozz sticks and wings for apps. Roma panini for entree. Food was very good. Had good flavor and good portion sizes. Others in the party had Italian food, their has no taste, so stick to the go-to's. Stay away from Italian food at an Irish restaurant. ;)

Lemme say, I shoulda listened to the other reviews....nah, won't go back.
Got seated within 10 minutes....then sat for over 20 before someone came to take a soda order. Since he was there and we had already read everything on the menu as well as a spare copy of war and peace, we ordered 1 specialty pizza, 1 salad, and fried ravioli. 10 mins sodas came, fried ravioli too after another 10 mins. Ravs were standard sysco product and sauce came in a plastic lidded cup. 🤔Odd. Finished the app and our drinks. Waited some more. Can't find waiter. He finally materialized, now here over an hour, we ask for refills. Pizza and salad arrive finally, no drinks returned. 10 more mins pass, still no drinks. I finally stand and grab 1 of 2 other servers and ask her if she can find him so we can get the refills. She says no problem. About 10 mins later another woman comes out with drinks. We were basically done eating at this point and there were 2 slices left. Im not wasteful, and would normally take the extras home, but since we were now well over an hour and half in (remember, thin crust pizza, salad, app), I actually ate the last 2 slices because IT WOULD TAKE LESS TIME THAN WAITING FOR A BOX. But guess who materialized immediately after we are done with the check?! Yep, ghost man! So I look at the check...upcharge for using credit, grrrrr, but okay fine. Then I notice I was charged for 4 sodas! You know, the sodas i had to go hunt some other server down for? These are 12 oz fountain cups! That's not counting the ice!!! They cost pennies per cup! Come on man, really?! Pretty disappointing. Heres my advice when you walk in: look around. If half the diners' tables have no food on them, walk out or you're going to have the same experience we did.
Fried ravioli, 3/5
Tomato, roasted pepper, mozz salad, 4/5
Rigatoni plum tomato basil pizza, 2.5/5 (really needed more sauce and any amount of basil)
Past responses from management to reviews indicate a desire to improve future dining experiences. Heres my feedback to management. Too few servers, no doubt. Kitchen was obviously backed up and the fail point tonight, consider extra help. Add free fountain soda refills. Wait staff really need to check back in with diners and if they can't due to diner volume, then management should. Didn't see anyone in management the whole time there, and inside and outside were packed. Came in hopeful for a good, quick and easy meal, left feeling nickel and dimed and 2 hours further behind on my trip than planned.
UPDATE: I could have left my review above as it stands, however, I believe in honesty in the review process as that is the only way to improve. So, I just noticed that 3 days after my review above, the charges for the meal were reversed. There was no comment from management, so I cannot say for sure that this was intentional or related to my review, however, I can also draw no other conclusion. In that case, I am grateful for the token of restitution and this tells me that management is human and respectful of their diners and I appreciate that. I will take that action as an invitation to return, which I will certainly accept. Thank you Nellie's.
