Their Tomato Pie is the best, better than DeLorenzo, IMO. I have their award winning Tomato Pie once or twice a week. Absolutely love it.
It’s a thin pie, and taste of the dough/crust is different and it is almost addictive. Then the moz, and on top of the cheese only in spots is sweet, somewhat chunky tomato sauce. Finished with a little seasoning and olive oil. Plain is awesome, we also like sausage and yellow banana peppers (pepperincino).
Simple, where every ingredient adds flavor. Only 3 people in the family know the recipe and make the pizza, so it is always consistent. I am going there for lunch today and I can’t wait.
If you go, tell Giulio (owner/chef orig from Italy) that Brian, the Rutgers guy sent you.

Woodstack in Pine Brook (also in Metuchen). Can't compare their dough/crust to anything I've ever tasted. I could eat the dough with nothing on it its so good. I asked the manager why its so different and he told me they use fresh yeast, less than 24 hours old vs pre packaged yeast. Definitely worth checking out.
Not sure if it is still there, but somebody out there might know the place. About 10 or 12 years ago, I was working in the Neptune/Ocean Township area. There was a shopping center with a Kohls at one end and a pizza parlor at the other end. Shell station was across from it. Very friendly staff. Might be my favorite pizza of all time. Wish I could remember the name of it.
Yup, that was it. Once in a while the company would spring for pizza—sometimes Rizzos and sometimes from a place called Attilios. Always hoped it was from Rizzos when it arrived.
Oh my gosh, on their website it has a photo of the shop that says they have $1.17 slices on Fridays. I can’t believe they still have that Friday promo !
De Lorenzo's in Robbinsville - best of the best with ratings to back it up
Tomato pie style, thin and crunchy crust
Agreed. It's Delorenzos and then there's everyone else. Papa's and Contes are up there too.
Chambersburg is a restaurant ghost town unfortunately. Marsillios is in Ewing now. Food is still just as good, the atmosphere just isn’t the same. Rossi’s was my favorite spot in the Burg (besides DeLorenzos). They moved out to Hamilton. I tried it twice and just wasn’t into it unfortunately.
