From the crust to the sauce, everything is dialed in like a Super Bowl game plan.

After seeing this place for years, I finally got the chance to stop in. Very yummy and the staff-…read moreincluding owner- were the literal sweetest!! So warm and welcoming. Great pizza options and loved it even more after learning it's all made on their homemade sourdough bread. Real family owned business meets tends Hoboken pizzeria vibes in terms of their offerings. The space is upper small and no bells and whistles. Yes, a few people can sit and eat but largely it's a take out business. They offer more than just pizza. Check out their menu. Great option for non-pizzeria but also not coal fired pizza, as well as other eats.

Met up with friends for some wood-fired pizza, and this place was perfect for it! The restaurant…read morefeels like stepping into a beautiful log cabin--cozy and intimate for date nights, yet spacious enough for larger groups. They also have a full bar, craft beer and offer much more than just pizza, including vegan options, a great selection of appetizers, salads, handcrafted pastas, plus fish and steak dishes. The menu is really well done. We decided to share a few pizzas since the brick oven was calling our name: Margherita - fresh mozzarella, tomato sauce, and basil Pesto Chicken - wood-fired chicken, fresh basil, mozzarella, Fontina, and basil pesto Smokey the Pig - smoked mozzarella, baked prosciutto, field mushrooms, fresh garlic, and EVOO For dessert, we shared the coconut cake. It's plant-based, made with coconut milk and brown sugar, and topped with coconut flakes. The portion was easily enough for four people and absolutely delicious--super fresh and flavorful. Our server, Tara, was wonderful--so sweet and attentive. She checked in often, kept our drinks filled, and made sure we enjoyed everything from the food to dessert. I'll definitely be back to try more dishes!

so I have good and bad things to say about this place. I'm gonna talk about the good…read more Service was excellent. I had the arugula and leeks pizza with mozzarella and balsamic drizzle. That was really good! their bread with the whipped butter was also delicious! this next thing I'm about to talk about is probably no fault of the restaurant but I'm a little traumatized by the whole experience so bear with me! Sometimes bad things happen to good people. I could also be very dramatic about things but I don't think I am. One of the bathroom stalls I locked and when I locked it I felt something on my thumb. IT WAS BROWN!!!!!!!! I came out of there and washed my hands until my thumb was raw! My whole hands were red. I don't even know how many times I washed them! This tiny dot of .... Let's not be coy but SHIT literally makes me even more afraid to use a public bathroom!! when I fucking hate them to begin with! I don't know how often a restaurant is supposed to check on stuff like this but God knows how long this was there for or who did it in the first place! People are fucking disgusting! it was in the handicap stall because one stall had pee on the seat which I also hate, and the other stall had no toilet paper. I'm not sure if this review is supposed to defer you from eating here. My food was really good. But this really freaked me out.

Stay tuned, slice pick up is coming soon!…read more This well-appointed pizzeria serves up a delicious plate of (all beef) meatballs with fresh ricotta in a most scrumptious sauce. As for the pizzas, kinda a mixed bag. Margarita was good,the pepperoni was a bit of a disappointment, the roni cups needed to be more charred and for some reason I wasn't thrilled with the sauce. HOWEVER, the White pie was an absolute standout! Do not pass on it!!!

Their service is terrible here. The guy in the front clearly doesn't want to work at Lucci's and…read moreseems bothered to handle anything at all. 1st time: Placed an order over the phone on Sunday evening. Guy seemed overwhelmed and reluctantly took my order. I showed up 30 min later and no one had any record of my order. I recognized the guy's voice and told him he took my order. He was pissed and got into a shouting match with me with 3 other customers around. He eventually apologized and offered a free side of meatballs and spaghetti (don't order that btw, super underwhelming). 2nd time: Wife placed an order for a pie with half pepperoni on their website. Came back with the order and the pie had full toppings. Small nit but annoying. 3rd time: I called at 6pm on a Thursday. No one picked up. Opted to place order on their website and got the same item as last time. Showed up at and the same miserable guy asked for my name and order... and then said he didn't have any order. I told him I placed an order on the website... and he said "You should have called." with an awful (only a mother can love) grin. I showed him my email confirming 6:20pm pickup time and he said he had no order... before pulling a pie with my name on it. I asked if it had half pepperoni and it didn't. Full toppings AGAIN. Clearly, their website is not equipped to actually take half toppings orders. Pizza is OK but not worth the headache or poor service here.

So when I want a slice of pizza late night "lately" this has been my go to spot. They close at…read moremidnight except for Friday and Saturday which is at 2am. I love a slice of pizza that has the crunchy bottom and the pepperoni is charred and cupped. Their white slice is good too. If you want that crunch but not too crunchy come here for a late night slice. They have pastas and sandwiches but never had it. Maybe one day. Pros: - Quick and friendly service - Crunch bottom pizza slices for those who love eating it this way - Opens late on the weekends until 2am - Want coffee?? Dunkin is next door but they close a lot earlier than here Cons: - Limited seating area - Small parking lot but late night there's always a spot Come check them out for a late night slice!

They are still trying to get in the swing of things so be patient. And they were super busy! Food came out piping hot. Chipotle wings were tasty and crispy. Margherita burrata pesto had great flavor.

Wishing them all the best and looking forward to coming in again.

This is a good local hangout. They keep the interior very dark, maybe that's for the best, ha ha…read more Food is okay, nothing special. If you are in the area and looking for a quick bite for a decent price this is for you. Service is okay. During lunch the bartender manages the tables also. The food isn't coming out quickly. It's basic bar food, again nothing special. I have been to this place 3 times in recent months to just make sure I give them a fair shake. They are consistent in being mediocre. There is parking as this place is in a small strip mall where Fresh Grocer is located.

This was my second time dining at Lombardi's, and just like the first, my boyfriend and I walked so…read moresatisfying and very full. Tucked inside a strip mall in Cedar Grove, this very unassuming spot might fool you at first glance. From the outside (and even when you first walk in), it has a casual dive-bar feel, but don't let that fool you as the food is absolutely phenomenal. Our friends who live just five minutes away insisted we try it, and I'm so glad they did. The first time we went, we shared the mussels as a starter. It was fresh, flavorful, and a great way to kick things off. But the real star of the show is the Chicken Scarpariello. You can choose your spice level (Sweet, Medium, or Hot) for just $24.99, and it's worth every penny. It's packed with sautéed chicken, mushrooms, onions, vinegar peppers, sausage, sliced potatoes (that look like chips but are addictively good), and garlic, all in a lightly braised brown sauce. We always get it over linguine and honestly, it's one of the best pasta dishes I've had. My boyfriend who never walks out of a restaurant with leftovers actually had me pack it up and his friend walk it to the car. That's how good it was! Our friends ordered the Chicken Lombardi served over penne. This meal is a double-breasted chicken topped with fresh mozzarella, roasted peppers, and a creamy pink vodka sauce. Also fantastic, but if you're into bold, spiced flavors, Scarpariello is the way to go for sure. We had two teenagers with us who ordered Chicken Parm with angel hair pasta and Buffalo chicken wings. While their palettes are still evolving, the next-day leftover parm was a hit! Drinks were strong, in fact, my Cosmo came with a serious kick, so I asked for a side of cranberry juice to tone it down, and the staff was super accommodating. Speaking of the staff, the service both times has been warm, attentive, and never rushed. My boyfriend and I already made a pact, that any time we're with these friends again in their area, Lombardi's will be our go-to. We've heard the pizza is amazing, so that's next on the list. If you're in the area and looking for unexpectedly amazing Italian food in a laid-back setting, do yourself a favor and try Lombardi's. Just trust me and come hungry.
