Giddy's Pizzeria

Reviewed By Gary S

The pizza was very fresh and delicious.Their website says they also offer baked ziti, fish, salads, French fries, but they were nowhere to be seen when I walked in.You may have to ask for those.and its kosher.The ambience does not exist, so this is not a great place for a first date or to bring business associates.But if you want good pizza, this is the place.

The wings are pretty hot but flavorful. I've been here twice. I also had the chicken parm. Which was good. My friend had the cheesteak which was better than Philly but that's not too hard to do lol. Service was excellent very nice people.

Pasquale Brick Oven Pizza Ristorante

Reviewed By Bruxism

The only thing I've had here is the pizza. I think I've tasted 5 or 6 different kinds. The brick oven crust is the best. But the ingredients they use on the toppings make a huge difference - olive oil, Kalamata olives, broccoli rabe. I don't make a lot of distinctions about pizza, but this pizza is head and shoulders above anywhere else I've been in N.J. And the prices are really good too, well below average. I'm worried they won't be able to stay in business given that they don't charge a lot. This is a superior product.

Carrabba's Italian Grill

Reviewed By RonL845

I sat at the bar and the bartender, Aaron, was a classic example of a hard worker, always in motion but he took plenty of time to ask how my shrimp and scallop linguine was (excellent!). I also ordered the prosciutto wrapped asparagus which was delicious. Adding an ice tea I was out of there for under $25, not bad considering I really enjoyed my food.Happy to return!

Luca's Ristorante

Reviewed By Foghorn8508

Located in a small strip center, you can almost drive right past it. Some of the most authentic Italian food I have ever had. We had the Lasagna - fresh, hot and a huge portion; Potato gnocchi - again fresh, flavorful; Tomato based fish - tons of fish and a very good portion; Sea bass - some of the best any of us have ever tasted. The only thing keeping Luca's getting an excellent was the service - the young men had to be asked for more bread, water and what was for dessert. This will not keep us from coming back to enjoy a real Italian meal.

This was once one of my go to spots. The pizza is still very good, but last few trips it hasn't been as great. We notice new people working, so not sure if new owners or new pizza makers. Have had some dinners there too, the normal food is your typical pretty good pizza place italian food. Their slices are usually on point. Great vodka grandma and very good buffalo chicken pizza's.

We went there for dinner and we had fried calamari and octopus as entree. While the calamari were delicious the octopus was served with peas and sauce which extremely strength the taste of this fish. Same story for branzino: extremely good quality of food but too much dressed with other flavors. Sweets were nice.Surely it deserve another visit as the quality of ingredients is excellent however I suggest to make things simpler.

Mancini Brooklyn Pizza

Reviewed By EmJayBV

The carne pizza is really very good, beaten only by Franco Peppe's (we eat pizza often). The eggplant pizza was good - could do with more eggplant on it though. The large pizzas are enormous but being delicious nothing goes spare. We ordered through ubereats and wouldn't hesitate to order from them again.

Recently dined there with a small group of about a dozen friends. The food was excellent and well-prepared. The service was exceptional, the waiters were attentive and helpful. Prices were reasonable considering the more than ample portions served.
