I came back here for another meal. The seafood salad was once again ordered as an appetizer (see previous review for similar thoughts). The crabmeat stuffed mushrooms ($8.95) and stuffed mushrooms with breadcrumbs ($7.95) were also ordered. There were 8 to an order. I preferred the ones with breadcrumbs. I thought the one with crabmeat was a little plain, but that could have just been the particular mushroom I had. For an entrée, I went with the chicken vodka ($15.95). It was breaded and topped with mozzarella and vodka sauce over pasta. It was an exceptional dish. There were large pieces of tender chicken and creamy vodka sauce. The vodka sauce was just not that spicy, which I prefer. Other than that, it was an appetizing and pleasant entrée. I also tried the cavatelli with broccoli and sausage as well as the chicken rapini. The cavatelli was very good. There was a lot of garlic incorporated and the sausage was great. The chicken rapini was sautéed in garlic and oil with sausage and broccoli rabe. There was also pasta present. I liked everything about this dish as well. I believe there were sundried tomatoes too, which went well with the rest of the dish. read more

For Italian food, they are one of the best places around. During the years of Covid, they managed to still provide takeout food. Unfortunately, to be able to remain viable, they closed the restaurant part of their business. It was very sad because they had just expanded. Having been there for awhile, but will stop in soon. read more

Been my go to spot for over 10 years. Best buffalo chicken pie I have ever had. You'll never want another pie again

Writing this on my lunch break while I enjoy the other half of my Joey d wrap from last night's dinner. So far I've had their pizza, sandwiches, wraps, salads, fries, and wings. Always so fresh, large portions, and delicious. The staff is superb, fast, and friendly. My partner's go to pizza place has turned into our go to takeout place for all American and Italian food. Highly recommend to all! read more

Great Pizza and Pasta. Most of all great caterer. Has provided catering for various occasions throughout the years and has always come through. Always a hit with our guests !! read more

Visiting here from TX. You can't get pizza like this in TX and that's a shame. Great NY/NJ style with amazing crust, cheese and sauce so a plain cheese pizza is still delicious. I got mine cheese only one side and pepperoni and bacon on the other. Nothing fancy inside just a nice clean place to enjoy the food and friendly staff. I'll be back whenever I travel here for business. read more

For my first time ordering from Joey's I could not be happier! I ordered the Fried Flounder Sandwich and Clam Chowder, both amazing! They prepared my order exactly the way I requested as well, which isn't happening very often during these crazy times. Joey's is now in the top of my list of places for lunch delivery. read more

Love their grandma pizza, with its thin crust that's always perfectly baked. Delivery is always ahead of schedule, and service is friendly when I pick up my own order. read more

Joey D's served their community when they needed it the most. We coordinated to cater food for our local healthcare workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Joey D's served up exactly what was needed - a delicious, home cooked meal. Everyone throughly enjoyed the food with ample leftovers to carry on for a few days. Thank you to Joey and everyone at Joey D's for their hard work and dedication to serve us. We cannot wait dine with you again! read more

Ordered here for lunch, I got a salad with grilled chicken and mozzarella, it was pretty good. Definitely tasted fresh and was a good size for a quick lunch. The bread that it came with was good too. I'll be ordering again soon. read more

Really good Margherita pie Sicilian pie and Italian dinners. Was pleasantly surprised and will be returning and referring friends and family. read more

When you come to New Jersey, or back to visit as I tend to do, there are things you have to do while here. One being have Jersey pizza. I grew up here and we had some pretty good pizza joints we ate at growing up. Ours used to be a place in downtown Metuchen called Roberto's. It went through several different owners but they most always kept the standards pretty good. Every other Friday or so my family and my Aunt, Uncle and cousins would always be there, we were semi-regulars and we always got two pies, a large salad and a couple bottles of Coke. Unfortunately they either closed or something happened, and my family doesn't go there anymore. I moved away and years later they discovered Joey D's. Also in Metuchen but a different area. Not sure how long it has been there, but yeah, the family found a new and really good pizza place. I have had their regular pizza and their Grandma pizza (thin Sicilian) and both are worth going to eat. What's funny is the few times I have been there, I seem to run into teachers that I had when I was in elementary, middle or high school....what's funnier, is I remember them, but it takes them a while to figure out who I am.... But go, my family has had menu items and they make good Italian food as well as calzones, strombolis and of course, pizza. So, enjoy. read more

Had a pie to go that was advertised as a 8.99 special. Do they even taste their own pizza? Pretty bad. Bland. No Taste. Cheap ingredients. Oh well read more

The food is excellent but the staff needs education on customer service! When you get an order wrong time and again everyday when we order lunch it's not the customers fault! Multiple times the orders are wrong and today Enrique told me "we complain too much and he doesn't want to talk to me!" It's absurd! Why don't you get orders right and people wouldn't complain! That's how you lose customers! read more

Excellent pizza. I also have had some delicious eggplant rollatini here. Pizza has a lot of variety, and the grandma's is my favorite. I only discovered them recently after being here 20 years and no longer go to the two other pizza joints we used to order from. read more

Not sure what Joey's changed but the food has been getting better and better every year. Whom ever is cooking, keep them! The sauce tastes so much better and equal in seasoning. It used to be over powering with garlic. The mussels are on point. The calamari is perfect. Pizza has been cooked perfectly the last 4 times we've ordered. read more

Hands down the best pizza in town. Typical NJ pizza with high quality ingredients = Boom! This hidden gem knows how to throw a pizza and the rest of the menu is also really good. In an area that has lots of average Pizza this place stands out consistently. read more

Best pizza in town. Their plain slices are large and delicious! Perfect ratio of sauce to dough and the crust is soft yet crispy on the edges. I highly recommend. You will not be disappointed. read more

Their pizza is delicious but so is their meals! The Grandma pizza with sausage peppers and onions is a must try! The shrimp Basilio pasta dish is also great. Their vodka sauce is one of my favorites as well. The staff is also very friendly and attentive! read more

Very hungry and limited vegan options especially with the shore traffic from the parade I drove to Joey D's. The owner Dan very awesome guy mad me a custom pie I've seen on his Instagram. It was a vegan big Mac pie. Amazing tasting pizza. Vegan or not I love coming year for the best service and the most friendly staff a pizzeria could have. Thank you Joey d!!!!!! read more

It's barfingly awesome. You know when something is so greasy and delightful? And you just want to consume seventy calzones and slices of awful wonderful pizza? And then you want to barf a glorious barf? That's this place for me. Not really much to it...there's a pizza counter and a little restaurant attached. I walk by here sometimes and I always say, loudly, and in the thickest possible NJ accent, "Eh, It's Joey D's"...I have no idea where this compulsion comes from. read more

I needed a new Italian place since my old one wasn't cutting it anymore (Edison Pizza). Joey D's looked pretty good given the reviews so I placed an order for delivery -- meat stromboli and the spinach ravioli in vodka sauce. Both dishes were delicious! I was hoping for more ravioli in a $13 dish (only 6 medium ravs), but at least the taste was def there. It also wasn't hot, oh well. The stromboli was also really good - good amount of flavorful meat and the bottom was nicely crunchy rather than soggy. Marinara sauce also yum. My only criticism besides what I already mentioned is that it took an hour to arrive and the actual ordering was a bit painful (I had to keep repeating myself, had issues saying where I lived etc.) Other than that, Joey D's has quality and tasty food. It might be my new spot! read more

Holy cow is this good pizza!! I recently started working nearby and Joey D's was a dangerous discovery - I'm eating slices from here at least three days a week now. Staff is friendly and efficient. And most importantly, the pizza is incredibly good. Crust is crisp and almost buttery on the outside and a little fluffy and chewy on the inside. Toppings are all fresh and yummy. Do yourself a favor and go for the buffalo chicken pizza. It's life-alteringly tasty. read more

What can I say, when I am home I am a regular. The service and food is what you want in a local Italian restaurant. Reasonably priced for the large portions (always have a doggy bag). Joey covers the full range of Italian cooking and let me not forget to mention it is a BYOB. I almost always order the Chicken Rollatini with Prosciutto and Provolone. Normally is comes on a bed of pasta but with me wanting to save some room for the starters, as they are very accommodating to special requests. I ask for them to plate it on a bed of garlic spinach. I very much enjoy it, my bide might have a different point of view. So as I mentioned earlier about that room I want to save. We start with string bean oreganata and mussels al-diablo is how we start our Joey D's night. Good food, good friends and a room of regulars with always room for one more is what you should expect. Remember to always drink responsibly. Crazy Cubano Out read more

Best buffalo chicken pizza around! No questions asked. Top quality Italian food as well if you're feeling dining in. One of the best Italian pizza/restaurants I've ever been to undoubtedly. I'm lucky to have grown up my whole life in this area and been able to go to Joey D's for years! read more

I shouldn't gave a star here This place is nothing but employees feeling them self and the food is so nasty that I can see the chefs cook the food too fast and the food have a bland taste that you want to wrap it for later. The. Waitress two girls are ok but but this one waitress who's big heavy set is annoying and she ate some of my plate when she served me like that nasty The pizza are good but The employers got attitude read more

Best pizza in town. Huge, thin slices with a good amount of sauce. It's in the sauce as they say, and these guys have a really good sauce. Eggplant parm sub is pretty good too. Their pasta selections especially the Alfredo Fettuccini with Chicken cutlets is delish! And the portions are huge. I always go here for takeout pizza/pasta or delivery. read more

On this trip, we had pizza. The Grandma Pizza. You probably want to know what that is. It is a bit like a Sicilian pizza but the crust is fairly thin. This pizza comes with cheese, basil and sauce ($16). We added mushrooms to one half and pepperoni to the other. Additional toppings are $2 each. It was a big pie. I wasn't sure if this would actually sate my appetite since we had 4 people, but the other 3 are light eaters so I ended up eating the bulk of it. Good times. read more

My absolute favorite place for buffalo chicken pizza and I'm enjoying the what I believe is penne vodka slice they occasionally have.

Order from here at least two times a month, BEST PIZZA IN CENTRAL JERSEY!!! Buffalo chicken pizza just awesome!! Give a try to Grandma's pizza...pretty good. Hands down best Sicilian pizza!! read more

Love their pizza....service is appalling. And that is for delivery! Deliveryman brought my Lisa salad swimming in balsamic dressing, which soaked through the bag and on top of the pizza box. The delivery man said he would be upset too with the presentation, when my mother-in-law told him she was displeased . When she called to complain, they all but called her a liar and refused to even accept the fact that it was presented as a mess. They told her they always put the dressing over the salad and that it is wrapped in a plastic bag(it was paper) and that there was no way it would've gone through to the pizza box. I always get this salad and it always has a side of dressing in a little plastic container. As much as I love their food, I dislike nasty service even more...@joeydspizza read more

A pretty standard Pizzeria for Central NJ, but they really do have a nice staff and excellent pizza. The Upside Down Sicilian is awesome. The inside dining was pretty nice too... not fancy, but nice enough. I'm definitely a fan :-) read more

Where do I even begin? Amazing food, great service, cozy atmosphere. Did I mention how great their food was? I found this place when I started my newest job over a half a year ago. I've come here twice a week ever since. Joey, the owner, is a really great guy and that reflects on his employees. The good is to die for, literally. If I was on my death bed my last meal would be something of his menu. Probably his buffalo chicken pizza. I swear I could eat an entire pie.. The ingredients are fresh and everything is cooked perfectly. Now I've put off this review for quite some time because I was waiting for something negative so this could be realistic. But I've been coming here twice a week for over six months and I have to say it's worth every penny. Not a single complaint. If I could only choose one restaurant to eat at for the rest of my life it would be this one. Hands down. 25/10, extra credit if I could. read more

I always get pizza cravings from here, they never disappoint. Plus the best Sicilian pizza, great to bring to have for parties when sliced in squares. read more
