If you're used to NY, NJ, or Phila pizza, lower your expectations. That said, its okay. Didn't try their other stuff so I can't comment on that. The pizzas are big, so you get a whole lotta mediocre. But usually a nice staff, and its just about the only game in town.

Love the new management of this little Carteret County restaurant! Great food! You never know when you go in, what might be the special of the day! Exciting specials. Owner tries to use local, in season good when possible. Homemade potato chips are delicious! Had a delicious prime rib special too. If you live in Carteret County, give Riverside a try, you won't be disappointed.

We went here after Holy Thursday mass to have a bite to eat. Very popular place. Got to see the pizza dough twirled in the air, I thought it would hit the ceiling! No frills here, you order your pizza, and when it's done, they put paper plates under the tray and you carry it to your table. (Could be dangerous). No beer or wine, just sodas. The crust was so thin, we couldn't pick up the pizza to eat - had to cut with a fork and knife. It was good, just to thin for us Northerners. Sauce and toppings plentiful.

We like to get pizza delivery after our long drive to the beach. The pizza arrived faster than the 45-1 hour wait time. Everyone was pleasant from the order taker to the delivery person. There are several crust options. We had the standard Italian and loved it. The pizzas seemed a little small and pricey for a large but the taste was great!

Great pizza and beer selection. It's the best pizza on the island. Others suggest Michaelangelo's, and if you want giant mall-style pizza, go there or Lazara's. But, if cheap mall-style pizza or Domino's isn't your style, go here instead. Great atmosphere, great food, great beer.

Let me cut to the chase. Donât go! Read the âClueless â and Apologetic Staffâ reviews . This was my experience. I waited 45 minutes for two manicotti dinners and a small cheese/tomato pizza take out order. Photos posted. I went there to order after trying to order by phone (my fault should have known then not to go there). Got my $30 order. The manicotti was tasteless and cold. The cheese/tomato was cold and soggy with oil. The entire front is ran by one lady (orders, server, cleans, etc). I live full time at EI. I have gone there during the off season and never had this experience. Never again!

Ate at Frank's last night. Typical great service followed by great food. The pizza is thin crust with excellent sauce and cheese. The other specialties are just as good. I had the lasagna. Chunks of sausage, gooey cheese, and great tomato sauce! With a very fresh salad and and a loaf of hot garlic bread! Tremendous!

It's no surprise that the tap water in this area is terrible. Different restaurants in the area deal with this problem, with varying degrees of success, using filtration. Some places have better filtration systems than others. Apparently this Michaelangelo's makes no effort at all. Their water, the sodas from their soda fountain, and their tea all taste terrible. Horrifically bad. It's a shame, because this location has a great location, a spacious and clean dining room, and the best staff of the Michaelangelo's in the area. Their pizza is consistently great, and they have great daily specials in the off-season. The situation with their beverages, however, is truly unforgivable, especially since we know that it could be resolved with the investment and maintenance of a good filtration system.
