No complaints there. Service was... philosophical. The place was empty, yet it took a while to be noticed. The staff seemed deeply committed to important discussions with friends. Once I finally received my pizza, I stood by the door, hanging like a lonely pepperoni, waiting for someone to remember I existed. Apparently there's another register somewhere in the back. So I took a small pilgrimage through the restaurant, paid, and escaped with my dignity and my slice. They do have a seating area to the left. I didn't explore it. At that point, my relationship with the establishment had run its course. Would I go back? If I'm starving and the parking lot calls to me again... nah...

I have seen reviews on YouTube thru…read morethe yrs and just heard of the location by name since it's been around so long but this weekend was craving a slice and wanted to start knocking off some of the places I had on my list to visit. The location itself is a combination of everything I like...somewhat dim lighting, long tables, long bar, booths, and hometown/locals feel. So...haha...a tavern...Parking is ample immediately adjacent to the bldg and there is also an overflow lot if you can't find a spot in the main parking lot. Menu has their specialty pies/standard food offerings and they have a chalkboard inside with their specials and drink specials. Pizza is a thin bar style pie. Very thin crispy crust which I prefer because it allows you to eat a few more slices without feeling full or dead tired from dough/carbs. We got a white pie and a buffalo chicken pizza...concluded things with their desert pizza which has apples, butter, walnuts, cinnamon, and sugar. All three were spectacular! Everything I had seen on YouTube from folks like JL Jupiter praising the location were spot on! Ingredients were all fresh. Pizza was crisp. Service was fast. The staff was welcoming and pleasant. Stefania was our waitress and she was great. Attentive, checking in regularly, clearing the table promptly and brought the check out without us having to wait long. I have nothing negative to say about the pizza or the experience. Drove about 40 mins to get there and it was well worth the drive. If you like thin crust pizza and that true tavern vibe/experience this has to be on your list of pizza restaurants to try. Has to be.

They were packed when we got there but we didn't have to wait long to get a seat. What we ordered: - Buffalo Wings - Mozzarella Sticks - French Fries - Regular Pizza - Regular Pizza with Pepperoni - White Clam Pizza - Old School Everything Pizza without Anchovies The food came out piping hot and everything we got was good. The wings were crispy and had a lot of sauce. We all enjoyed the pizzas even though bar style isn't our favorite. The only thing to note is my friend ordered a Blue Moon beer and never got it even though she even reminded them again. By the time the meal ended she was too full for a beer anyways. Honestly we don't even know if we got charged for it because we didn't examine the receipt before we paid by cash. Besides that everything went well and we would recommend this place.

Zingada way to much peppers for me for sure , but a good pizza finished it all alone The special dish with chicken cutlet with mash on top and vinegar sauce was very good but again way to much vinegar and peppers I'd get just without and or maybe another sauce . I saw others getting other items which I'd try next time . Service was fast good and attentive, food came out fairly fast since I was the first person to be in the place for the day . Next time have to try the meat lovers and shrimp And also loved the dining room area really clean and fmaily style

Everything I heard about Angeloni's Restaurant & Pizzeria is true! I came here right before Labor…read moreDay weekend while I was staying in Jersey City, and I'm really glad I made the trip. From the moment I walked in, I had a great experience. I was greeted by a very friendly hostess who made me feel welcome right away. I actually wondered if she might be the owner because she was so welcoming. The restaurant itself has a vibrant, comfortable atmosphere with great ambience. I was dining by myself, so I ordered a medium thin-crust pepperoni pizza. Before the pizza came out, they brought me some bread, which was delicious and definitely got me ready for the meal. Then the pizza arrived. After my first bite, I immediately understood why I had heard so many good things about this place. The thin crust was perfectly crispy and crunchy, and the pizza had excellent flavor. I ended up finishing the entire pizza! I probably could have ordered another one, but I had to remind myself that I'm trying to watch my diet. The price was also very reasonable. My entire meal was under $20 since I just had water, and the quality of the food was excellent for the price. This was easily one of the best thin-crust pizzas I've ever had. Angeloni's Restaurant & Pizzeria has definitely become one of my favorite places to visit when I'm in the area, and I'll absolutely come back. Next time, though, I'll bring my significant other or a date because eating all that great pizza by myself was a little lonely! If you're thinking about trying Angeloni's, check it out. You won't be disappointed. The pizza alone is worth the trip! 10/10 -- definitely a 5-star experience!

A new owner, who's actually Italian, reopened this restaurant. But, first things first…read more.. Let's be honest, this place under the prior owner was no great shakes. Food wasn't great and was actually a bit weird (but what do you expect from a non Italian serving up Italian food). Also, service was poor. Fast forward to now We went here just to see what's up with the reopening We were not disappointed. The food was (in a word) delicious. Portions were good and service was great. We were taken care of by a really sweet woman. The owner, who also cooks, was very friendly. He made a point of coming out and checking to ensure we were ok The only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is the state of the restroom. It clearly needed some love. Although to be fair there was a big party going on at the same time, so this could've been the reason. Will I be back? Absolutely!

***3 1/2 stars***…read more Maybe it lost something in transit or I didn't get the right pie, but I wasn't blown away by this place. I've had Tony D's on my list for a while, knowing it had a solid reputation amongst the North Jersey Italians (and what better demo to have it from?). Yesterday was a perfect opportunity to order/grab some pizza and bring it over to my top-tier chum in nearby Montclair for lunch. I didn't do a ton of recon so maybe there was a more obvious/modern method to ordering, but from what I could tell, this place was pretty old school and I just picked up the phone and called over - honestly can't remember the last time I did that, but it brought a nice whiff of nostalgia for me after years of ordering on apps. Didn't realize that Tony D's is literally right around the corner from my BFF Cloverleaf, so the location is pretty convenient if you're in the area. The parking in Caldwell can be pretty annoying, and even though I'm sure I could have rolled the dice I paid a little less than a dollar to park up the street further into a residential neighborhood. Given that Tony D's is exclusively delivery/pickup joint, I think they should pay for the spots right in front as a courtesy to their customers coming in and out; maybe they do and I missed it but if not... Anyway. The guy behind the counter was VERY nice/friendly, and even though I was a few minutes early based on the estimated ETA off my phone call, the pizza literally had just come out of the oven and was ready to rock. From that vantage point, top-notch service. The specific pie that seemed to be their go-to was the Drunken Grandma, which is usually one of my favorites (vodka sauce on pizza should be much more prevalent in my opinion) but I wasn't crazy about the chunks of tomato on it. In hindsight, would have been easy to pick off or even to request that they not be included to begin with, so that would be my recommendation based on this experience. I opted for a square plain pie, especially since I knew that a few young pups would likely be sampling the wares; seemed like an overall safe bet. Optics-wise, I thought it looked very good, and I don't regret going square here. The crust for me was probably the best part, and I made sure to strategically grab all of the corner pieces once we started eating. Nice crisp to it for sure. The overall taste of the pie just wasn't my thing. I wasn't crazy about the sauce (maybe another argument for the vodka sauce, right?) and the cheese was just okay. Tasted to me more like generic by the slice pizza, which isn't my preference. My top-tier chum liked it more than I did, so definitely could just be an issue with palate preference here but this might have suffered from inflated expectations. I'd give them another shot if a similar circumstance presented itself, but I'd go with the pie it's known for - there's a reason the Drunken Grandma is front and center in almost every review. Learn from me.

You'd be forgiven if at first glance you thought there's nothing particularly special about Livingston Pizza but the fact is that this place has so much more to offer than any first impression might yield. And upon further inspection it just so happens that yours truly has found this spot to offer an excellent Pizza experience. Like I said it's Thin Crust Style so to me that just means I get to devour more of it, Lol. The Sauce that they use here is a perfectly seasoned Marinara topped with a delicious Mozzarella blend which makes for a super delicious slice. Toppings are plentiful and fresh ingredients are evident in each and every tremendously tasty bite.

Delivery would be 45-60 minutes, so I set my timer for 30 so I'd be ready to put the light on in the vestibule for the driver to see. Before I knew it, I got a call that the delivery driver, Joshua, was at the door! It wasn't even 30 minutes! He must have cooked my food on the way over! Joshua was very pleasant and the food was very hot! I ordered a large half sausage pizza with a side of fried mushrooms, which were both delicious. The pie had a nice thick crust, which is how I like it. I never eat the bottom crust, but break off the thick crust and scoop up the toppings. It was perfect! The fried mushrooms were tender with a very crispy & tasty coating. They were a nice size and there were plenty of them...even had some left over. Everything from placing the order with a very sweet lady to my last bite was great! I definitely recommend trying this eatery.
