This is one of my favorite pizzas! The crust is really good... Old-fashioned, real pizza crust, complete with the cornmeal on the bottom. You know... the kind you have to tear at just a little? The sauce is perfectly spiced, not too acidic and not too sweet. Toppings are abundant, with the perfect amount of cheese. This time we also tried the cheese bread. Let's just say this could be a serious problem for us if we lived here. At a take away place like this, I would normally never think of dessert, but holy smokes! The cannoli is to die for. It is perfectly light, yet rich and deep. Nothing overly sweet, American style, with this. This time we took a gamble and tried the cheesecake. Oh yes! Just as good as the cannoli! The owner (Joe's son), Jim, always seems to be there working and overseeing. The staff seems to be family - or something like it. Couldn't ask for nicer people who make killer food. Next time I think we are going for meatballs. They look amazingly delicious! read more

See all

The pizza was burnt and when I tried to call to see if they would make it right they wouldn't answer the phone. Someone recommended this place to me. I won't recommend it to anyone ever. I don't like burnt pizza read more

Joe's Pizza King... it's been around for 50 plus years... I think that says everything about this place, Jim the owner is one of the best guys that I know, although they go through many servers and workers, the food and service and caliber of the love you get with the food speaks for itself. I rate this place a 10 out of five if I could, I will not choose any of the pizza place.... read more

This is my first Yelp! review ever! With that being said I have been a customer since I was a young child with my parents ordering from Joe's back in the early '80's, and I am now in my mid 40's. We love supporting local small businesses and Joe's has the best subs and pizza around! Their pasta is also yummy! The staff is always helpful and kind. When you walk in the door you definitely get that small hometown feeling even though you are in the city! Generally I would call in our order but this time there was an option to place an online order so I thought I would give it a try - smooth and simple process and my order was accurate when we picked it up. I would also like to note that we placed our order online around 8pm on New Years Eve (which was also a Sunday) and our order was ready in a half hour as promised as stated online! We will be back for sure! read more

They got the best bang for your buck I drive all the way from Alpine to Division and 44th Ststreet just for their subs, I've never had a problem whatsoever and I have been dealing with them since I was literally a kid I am about to be 37 years old so that say's a lot! read more

This was the classic place to grab a slice of pizza for lunch, or carry out for dinner with a group of friends in high school. Love supporting a local pizza place, the food is delicious, prices are good, and service has always been amazing. It's a cute little shop with a seating area to wait if you'd like. Have been here many times, and will definitely go back. read more

Had for the first time on Saturday night 4-9-22. They had my order wrong to begin with. Had the wrong toppings on my pizza. Pizza lacked flavor. The chicken wings are not wings, just dry nuggets. They gave me expired soda (I checked the expiration date due to it tasting expired.) will NOT go back. read more

Love their pizza! They've been making authentic tasting pizzas for years now! It's always fresh and hot with plentiful cheese. Way better than anything you can grab at a Little Caesars! Cheesy breadsticks are super cheesy and garlicy too! They're also open super late a few times a week! read more

I sometimes get "pizza by the slice" here at lunch...always been good for me. Burned my mouth today though. It's always so hot. Good pizza...sauce is a little sweet, which I like... read more

Great pizza! We've been going here since we moved to the area about a year ago. Pizza never disappoints!

I don't even know where to begin! Joe's pizza is open late, ranging from midnight to 3 am depending on what day of the week it is.... fast delivery, food arrives HOT! Home of the gynormous 24 inch pizza! MMMMMMMMMM! They're subs are great, and they also have a good selection of dinners, and fried foods. I'm getting hungry again just talking about them! read more

Never checked out the place's ambiance, using them as the go to guys for the room delivery at the hotel I was staying at. I like the pizza, having ordered twice in my month long stay. I didn't care for the sausage spices and/or seasonings, but that is just a preference thing. Delivery times were spot on. Courteous staff, both on phone and at the door. read more

I went online I got their phone number I looked at their menu I figured out what I wanted was a small pepperoni pizza it said my price was $7.10 I went into the store to pick up my pizza and they told me my pizza was $9 and I said well that's a huge jump from $7.10 and he said well our price is changed and I said I was right here on this board above my head it says $7.10 and online it says $7.10 so it looks like you're overcharging me if I would have known that I was going to be paying $9 for a small 10 inch pizza I would have ordered something else I feel robbed and cheated and I will not go back too bad they were the best pizza in my neighborhood but there are plenty of others read more

Great affordable pizza. The pies are huge!! Brings me back to my childhood. I NEVER get cheated at Joe's!!!

Order two pizzas the other day and they were both Not cooked. Still all raw. Called back to complain about it and they said call back and talk to the owner took me three days to get a answer from the owner and he was not helpful no customer service but like I was a bother read more

After a few mediocre, at best, experiences things changed for me. After ordering one night and waiting for an hour for delivery placed a call to inquire about said order. The girl said he was just leaving, and it takes longer because we ordered chicken wings. I said, 'oh, I didn't know it takes an hour to fry chicken wings.' She said, 'yeah'. Then hung up. So rude. No apology even? That is incredibly annoying and the food tasted terrible after that. Too bad I can't not tip, because that guy didn't even deserve the $2 I made myself still give him (half a normal pizza delivery tip for me!) He couldn't even make eye contact and again couldn't apologize for bad service. No 'Sorry we lied about being there in 45 minutes.' Yeah, I'm good. There are plenty of local pizza spots that don't offer terrible customer service. Seriously, be polite on the phone when people order and if you take longer than you say you will, be apologetic. It seems like a small, local pizza place would attempt to offer better customer service because so often they are overrun by chains. I would go to Pizza Hut before going back to Joe's Pizza King, and that says a lot. read more

Good pie...since 1975...they have it worked out..2 blocks from my house, we order all the time...The cheesy bread is the jam...do yourself the favor... read more

I have gotten pizza from Joe's Pizza King about a dozen times, a few times I've had them deliver to my work, about two miles away, the rest of the time I have came in and picked my order up. Every time has been a decent experience except for a few longer waits than I was told, but the food is good and the prices are comparable. Until last night. I decided to take advantage of one of their specials; buy one 18" pizza at regular price and get the second for $11. I called exactly at 5:00 when they open and placed my order, one deluxe without olives and one BBQ chicken. I was told 30 minutes. I arrived at 5:25 to witness my first pizza being put into the oven and was told my second wasn't started yet. Although a bit of an inconvenience as I was on a time crunch as my girlfriend had to leave by 6:15 to get to work, I decided to wait it out. I finally get my pizzas about 5:50, rush back home to give my girlfriend hers and enjoy mine. Hers was great, exactly as ordered. However my BBQ chicken was missing both bacon and onions. I call them up and explain what I ordered and what was missing, the response I got, "Well we are all new employees and none of us knew how to make a BBQ chicken pizza, we figured it was just BBQ sauce and chicken." He immediately offered me a discount on my next pizza, but I suggested they start making me a new one and I would be back in 30 minutes to exchange them, he said that wasn't a problem. This most recent experience deserves one star, but because of my previous experiences I am giving them three stars. They advertise their hours as Mon-Fri Lunch from 11:00am to 2:00pm. Sun-Wed Dinner from 5:00pm-12:00am, and Thur-Sat Dinner from 5:00pm-3:00am. However there has been a few times I have called on a Thursday or Friday shortly after 2:00am and the phones just rang and rang. The pizza is good, the service is inconsistent and apparently their employees are not trained properly. read more

We called 8 minutes to close and they stayed open for us. Clean environment and super friendly staff! The pizza was phenomenal. It's kind of out of the way from where I live but after this experience I will for sure be coming back! read more

Best pizza in GR! Sometimes delivery takes a bit longer than I'd like but it's always worth the wait.

Pizza is great New York style crust with plenty of toppings. Everything I've had from Joe's has been good, the only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because on several occasions I've called and they were either out of a particular item or they didn't have a delivery driver available. read more

This pizza is very good. It's a little out-of-the-way but definitely worth the trip! The casual attire that the employees have is very welcoming, I would definitely be returning to Joes! read more

They stayed open for an extra 20 minutes for my order of pizzas! They were so nice and friendly when I came in they had my large pizzas hot and ready when I walked in! When I got home and ate the pizza it was so amazing. The sauce was spectacular, the cheese was seasoned and delectable. The 16 inches were HUGE! Feed 3 21 drunk boys! I will definitely be back. read more

We were at the Legion and ordered a large pizza, it was a hot and quick, they didn't over load it with sauce, perfect and everyone loved it, I will use them again ....Owners and people work here are great !!! read more

Have lived in the area for 38 years and eaten here lots of times. Used to be our fav until this past visit. Guy making the pizza did not wash hands or use gloves AFTER he wiped the sweat off the top of his head. Sick. No more visits for me. Gag. We go elsewhere now. read more

My friend ordered a pizza to my house, waited an hr and a half. Finally HE called the restaurant and they said they FORGOT to tell him that our house is outside of their delivery area and he wouldn't be getting his pizza. He wasn't able to get anywhere with the person at the restaurant so I called the number a few mins later hoping to get a manager. I wanted to see if they would just deliver it outside their service area since we've now waited an hr and a half. The same girl answered and hung up on me after saying that I was harassing her by suggesting this. LOL. By far the worst interaction I've EVER had with someone in the service industry. read more

LOVE this place. I've been eating here since I was a little girl. Best meatballs ever, scratch made too. The sauce is just as good and is also made from scratch. My boys love sitting in while waiting for our order. There's classic car models all over along with pictures of the owner and his family with local residents. Wonderful little family run business that has endured the test of time. Great prices for portion size as well. 1 spaghetti and meatball dinner feeds myself and my 2 boys. Our go to place when mommy is feeling lazy and doesn't want to make dinner. :-) read more

Tried to get an order for delivery. Before I could even place my order, they informed me that a delivery to my address (less than 4 miles away) would be a $5 delivery charge, instead of the normal $2. I've never ordered delivery from them before, and now I never will. I would have tipped the driver extra no problem, but it's ridiculous to charge a $5 delivery charge that probably won't even go to the driver. The food's okay, but the service sucks. read more

Their pizza crust is unequaled in GR. it's thin and chewy, but has that crisp bottom like a New York foldable pizza. They don't skimp on toppings or cheese, I don't need to order extra cheese like at Happy's or Jet's. The subs are great and a steal considering the too-little and too-thin sized meats and cheeses at Subway and Boardwalk. The fries are great and really cheap. The chicken strips are just ok. Very good bang-for-the-buck here! For example, I ordered an 18" 4 topping pizza, 2 subs, 2 fries, a spaghetti dinner, garlic bread, extra cheese on one sub, fried mushrooms, and chicken strips, extra sauces, and it was under $35. That would cost $50+ at Village Inn or Jet's, and even more at Pizza Hut or Papa John's. read more

I live 18 miles away and cannot get to Joe's to enjoy this great pizza as often as I want, but will justify the trip for the slightest reason! Have eaten there for over a decade now. Jennette just made me the absolute BEST pizza I've ever had (knew I should've ordered the 16")! When I order, I specify some rather unusual requests that not only can be difficult to meet, but may be downright "a lot to ask", especially if a pizza place is busy, but Jennette at Joe's knew exactly what I wanted and was happy to accommodate. The pizza she made was to exact specifications in every way ordered and perfect for me! This is a great accomplishment since I know all too well that despite making it clear, I very rarely get it the way I ordered at most pizza restaurants. Sometimes it's due to inexperienced pizzaiolos just not knowing, but often simply because they don't want to take the time. Not so at Joe's. Customer service is alive and well at this restaurant! Thanks Jennette. You're a keeper! ...Big Mikey read more

First time customers. Joes pizza king has a new lifetime customer.
