    Square pie. Half extra cheese. With cherry peppers for combination. Pie cut into 8 slices instead of typical 10.
    Gregory L.

    No one does a better square pie than ninos! Love. Love. Love. I meet a client of mjne here every 90 days and its always consistent and delicious. This time we asked fir half with extra cheese and with some cherry peppers on each. Yummy! Btw, dont sleep on their mozzarella sticks. Big. Fresh made and cheese pull for days. Right off of 280 and large shopping center for parking. Very unassuming spot to make such a banging sicilian pie!

    Plain large pie

    Honestly I've ordered from this place for yearsssss .. and the pizza never disappointed ... but ever since it was sold it's just not the same... I gave it a second chance today andidk if they changed the cheese, the sauce or the dough ... but something just doesn't sit right ...it also seemed a little under cooked .. maybe an extra 3-5 mins would help.. plus by the time we got our delivery the pizza wasn't hot anymore. Time to find a new pizza spot in town!

    Sicilian slice
    Sravya V.

    Nino's was a pretty standard pizza spot. I must have gone after a big rush, as they had very few kinds of pizza slices available at the time. The Sicilian slice was thick and relatively saucy and cheesy, which I enjoyed. The margarita was drier, and the cheese was super thin and stringy. One thing I did note was that the sauce was definitely on the sweeter side, which is not necessarily my cup of tea. Overall, pizza wasn't bad and service was relatively prompt.

    Cheese Steak Sandwich

    Pizza was fine but was cold when we got it for take out... ordered a cheese steak sandwich with fries peppers and onions expecting a normal cheese steak, the "cheese steak" we got was literally one large grilled piece of steak with fries on top and melted cheese on a hoagie roll. Not what it seemed like on the menu and also was not good.

    Pasta was cooked perfectly
    Cassy B.

    Decided to order from here in a pinch because my regular pizza spot was unexpectedly closed. The staff was friendly and the service was quick but the food was nothing to write home about. We got two large pies and a chicken parm dinner. The pizza was superrrr undercooked. Really floppy slices, we needed a spoon to scoop the toppings back on to our plates. It was also incredibly over salted, for a regular cheese pie it was all salt. The chicken parm itself was great, thin cutlets perfectly cooked. The pasta was also deliciously al dente. What ruined it for me was their sauce. It was all sugar, way too overly sweet. It wrecked the whole dish for me. I probably wouldn't return, I'm sure some people appreciate a sweeter sauce but this is just too much for me.

    Double cheese Sicilian slice
    michael a.

    I love to have double cheese stealing slicer it is amazing the cheese is fresh it crunches when you bite into it. It really is one of the most perfect Sicilian slices I've ever had. If you're in Harrison it's worth the drive to come here

    Upside down, half bacon
    Louis L.

    Upside down Sicilian, vodka sauce on the side to dip the crust. That's the move. You're welcome.

    Lg Pep/Sausage
    Todd K.

    Pizza Crust: firm, but chewy Pepperoni: great Sausage: sliced and awesome Cheese: great Sauce: great Garlic knots: subpar; some burned Arrived a bit cool, but delivered by Uber Eats. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt.

    Today I ordered some food because I have been ordering from them since I moved to Harrison. I ordered Tortellini Michelangelo and let me tell you that I was not expecting this. I got to say that the portion of food is big and really considerate but once I moved the food to a bowl I noticed huge amounts of oil. I'm a big fan of Nino's, but today, the food really let me down. I think that this is going to be the last time I order pasta from them...

    My partner and I dropped by this establishment as our first option had a 45 minute wait time. With the assistance of Yelp, we came to this pizzeria as it didn't have any wait time and allowed indoor dining. We ordered 2 Sicilian slices each with a drink. These came out warm with the hard crunchy crust just how I like them. There were enough sauce and cheese but nothing to write home about . It was quick and hit the spot as we made it to our next appointment.

    Phil T.

    Authenticity personified from the photos on the wall to the pies in the oven. Amazing crust, sauce on point, cheese for days. Stop by for a slice. It was so good I had several. Three huge slices were a shade over $10 - the front 5 of the Giants could each eat for less than the toll for the Verrazano Bridge. Highly recommend!

We had 6 of us. Every single thing everyone ordered looked incredible. (I mean, I don't really care for muscles, but I could absolutely see the love cooked into even that dish.) I wish them every success and I'm already looking forward to visiting again next time I'm in the area!

"You won't want to cook anymore" he tells us a bit later. He's not wrong. I had the fish special, cod, served puttanesca, with mash potatoes and spinach. He had the rigatoni bolognese. Perfectly cooked pasta. "Everything is homemade," Angelo explained later. Smart and fairly well-priced wine list. We asked why the 2020 Carparzo Brunello di Montalcino was so low priced, and learned the wine has been priced the same since their father closed their Upper East Side location and the kids opened in Newark. "New York food at NJ prices," Angelo explained. "I've never had tiramisu I've liked better", husband told me. "I've never had flan Ive liked better" I told him. (It is coconut flan.) Great service. Wonderful spot. And Bon Jovi has been in twice, most recently he brought his wife. Enough said.

We all enjoyed it. My hubby got pork chops and I got grilled cod special, delicious. My son and his girlfriend had sirloin and New York steak. The steak was cooked as ordered but seasoning was not really happening and it took a while to cut up the NY steak. So when my son was about halfway done, he went to add more salt and pepper. The pepper shaker top fell off and spilled all over his steak. We told one of the bus boys and he put the cap on like we asked, "How do we put this back on?" And walked away. I asked for a manager and they cooked him another steak so they made up for it. The reason for the 4 stars is the taste of the steak. Expensive but not tasty. Place was nice and again they did make the pepper incident up. Nice experience but not good enough to want to go back. I'll try another one in the area if we are ever there again. But would recommend to try it maybe your experience will be different.

    Great Iberian restaurant to visit before and evening at the NJ PAC…read more You enter through a back door of the restaurant from the parking area and are in a party room. You then walk up the stairs to get to the host. It is a little bit confusing the first time you visit. There is also an option to go downstairs to another party area. There is a very small ladies room by the host. But, if there is a long wait. There is a larger ladies room downstairs. This is important to know if you are in a rush to get to your show. You will be seated when your entire party has arrived. Another good thing to know for planning. There were four of us and both couples decided to split a picture of Red sangria, the chorizo, appetizer, 2 pork chops and garlic sauce entrees and 2 vegetarian paellas. The chorizo was fine. The complementary bread could have been better (not warm, and not what I am used to at this kind of restaurant), but was ok. The pork chops were excellent! The vegetarian paella was good. They actually worked very well together. We were also served fried thin slices of potatoes and broccoli and carrots. The coffee was fabulous as was the limoncello mascarpone cake. Service was excellent and the ambiance in the dining room was busy but nice. If you are going to a show, you can park in the lot on the left and pay $16 for the night. It's a quick 5-10 minute walk to the NJ PAC.

I especially enjoyed the penne pasta with chicken, mushrooms In Cheese sauce. I Enjoyed the pasta in the red sauce. No worries, there is a full service bar to for wine etc. The food was delicious-- but just prior to refills the offerings were like warm, to be kind. The chef was at the station nearby whipping up the refills. So they did not run out of foods. The tables are situated around the Tier with ornate glass and exposed brick and floor to ceiling windows showcasing Newark and the ongoing construction and hustle and bustle around the city. The tables and chairs are quite comfortable and dining on good china, flatware and cloth napkins make the scene more romantic. All the staff were wonderful! They were courteous and helpful. But be ware check out cam get backed up if everyone rushes out at showtime as they only have one credit card /register. They should do something about that. I called in advance and was told I didn't need a reservation. I think I will continue to do that when I go to the next NJPAC event. The venue is just lovely. Kudos to Newark!

We've dined here several times primarily due to convenience and to avoid the lack of street parking and questionable parking lots in the area. We always pre-purchase the NJPAC parking ticket when booking a show; this permits you to park in either the underground Military Park garage (across the street) or, the PAC lot adjacent to the Center, a better choice. Curiously, attendants at ground level always ask to see your tickets, even if dining upstairs at Tier 3. I've never asked if having show tickets was a prerequisite for entering Tier 3. (The "Greeters" also call upstairs to "announce" that your on your way.) The restaurant itself is quite dramatic, set within the curved sweep of architecture that the interior follows; glass and mirrors surround most of the tables; the setting reminds me of many airport restaurants we've spent some time in. Pros: Very convenient parking arrangements if seeing a show. A quick, safe, and easy walk up to the main doors of the NJPAC. We were always seated promptly. A server will take your drink order, soiled table settings are quickly removed, your tab is quickly presented to you when your ready to leave. There was never a line at the buffet nor at the coffee and desert table. In summary, a place to grab a hot meal without a long wait and still have time without rushing to your show since it's in the same building. Cons: Several of the (covered) buffet urns held a fair variety of freshly cooked entre's yet the food was not held at the proper (hot) temperature. Coffee and similar beverages were dispensed at the desert table. Yet again, their temperature was medium warm at best. Coffee cups and saucers had to be replenished when I approached the coffee table; although the manager was steps away, it was I that got his attention to re-supply the table with cups and saucers. Desert offerings consisted of miniature squares of "cake" and were not appealing. The price point for dinner is "expensive" and a poor value. The mixed salads are, by far, your best bet for quality; quite fresh and tasty and being cold and crisp was not a concern. Tier 3 Cafe is not our Go-To restaurant prior to seeing a show at NJPAC. Frankly, we now dine at a quaint Italian neighborhood bistro on Bloomfield Ave near 13th Street when going to the NJPAC. We park on the street across from the restaurant and enjoy good, home-made cooking at about half the price of Tier 3 Cafe and, we don't have to be announced to get a table, nor display any tickets.
