Came here with a large group after a battle reenactment at the nearby state park. We got there right when the restaurant opened and the staff quickly put together a table for 20. There are a lot of fancy personal pizza options on the menu. I had the wild mushroom pizza and shared a dessert Nutella pizza with the table. The kitchen did a great job of getting all of our food out at the same time. The toppings were very tasty. I wasn't a huge fan of the crust, but all in all this was a good experience. read more

We were at Princeton at needed a spot with Vegan/veg options and this place seemed to fit the bill. However, we may have caught them on an off day. The pizza had wayy too much flop. The server was needlessly rude to our party of 3. Sad and disappointed. read more

Nomad Pizza is one of those places I used to go to all the time, and it's still a spot I always come back to whenever I'm in Princeton. Their guanciale pizza is a classic with the guanciale and FIG JAM (genius move), though I did notice the flavor has changed a bit, probably from a new supplier, and it tastes a little more pork-forward than it used to. The margherita is a must for me every single time as it's simple, clean, perfectly balanced, and honestly one of their best pies. And the funghi is another standout: earthy, rich, and something they consistently do really well. If you're in Princeton and want great wood-fired pizza, Nomad is hands down the best pizza you'll get. read more

Good pizza for Princeton. Not a typical classic recipe taste kinda pizza but its good if you want something in a modern urban area and a flare of Fast paced & modern. Good selections and the crust is made well. It's a good place to go if you have kids. Not my favorite but it's good. read more

First time checking Nomad out and I really enjoyed my experience here. I had the Spicy Sausage Pizza and Vodka pie with Pepperoni, which is a must! The dough is nice and soft. Very chill environment, amazing service and delicious food....can't go wrong with that! Definitely will be visiting again soon to explore the rest of the menu. read more

Some nights are meant for music and friends and sitting in the grass pretending the world is a little softer than it usually is. That's what we were after at the Princeton Shopping Center. A friend was performing in WOMENROCK! which is the kind of show that makes you think maybe we all still have some beauty left in us. Before the first chord was played and the sun had started to go down, we needed something to eat. Someone said "Let's get pizza from Nomad" and everyone nodded because it has that foodie glow around it. The kind of place that gets whispered about in brunch conversations and local blogs with too many adjectives. We figured it would be expensive but good. We were half right. When we got there it was chaos. Not the fun kind either. More the disorganized, distracted, hurry-up-and-wait kind. The meat slicer was broken, which meant they were out of several pizzas, all involving things like prosciutto and whatnot. Apparently one machine stood between us and several options on the menu. Life is like that sometimes. The pizzas only come in one size. That size is slightly too much for one person or not quite enough for two. A clever trick for the house, not so much for the customer. We got two pepperoni pies for our family. That's $42. I don't know what kind of pepperoni has to travel first class to justify that price but it didn't show up with a passport or a purpose. The pizza was fine. Let me say that again. It was fine. Dough was moist and chewy. The flavor was there. But the slices had all the structural integrity of a sad birthday balloon. They flopped over the moment you picked them up like they'd given up on life. No crispness. No backbone. Just sauce and cheese surrendering to gravity. And that's the thing. For $21 a pie and a reputation built on food pilgrimages and curated rusticity, I expected something better than "fine." I expected a little joy. I expected a slice I could hold in one hand without reenacting a pizza-based tragedy. There are too many great pizza places around Mercer County to settle for this again. We ate it. We did not suffer. But we will not return. The music in the shopping center's courtyard, by the way, was wonderful. read more

Love their pizza! Quick, thin crust & the shiitake pizza & the guanciale are always great.

We had Nomad pizza for our welcome reception the night before our wedding a few weeks ago at the Inn at Fox Briar Farm, and they were excellent! The pizza was all delicious, and our guests raved about the food. For a group of more than 100 people, we had more than enough pizza - and lots of options! - at all points of the evening - no one had to wait, and the service was friendly and helpful. Highly recommend Nomad to cater your next event! read more

I have been here several times they are. Casual atmosphere and service is pretty quick and it's definitely a good spot for great pizzas and I love the appetizers. Even though they are a pretty decent size I definitely would consider calling ahead if you have a large party . The Tartufo pie is delicious and probably my favorite. I always get the arugula salad but decided to go with Caesar this time around . We also ordered dessert pizzas this time around Nutella pizza is a must ! Swing by and give this place a try if you are looking for a new spot to try . read more

We have been eating at Nomad's for years. From the Truck, Princeton and Lambertville but as of today we will no long spend a dime at Nomad. We were there to eat pizza NOT have a political lesson. We wanted regular pizza NOT POLITICAL PIZZA!!! read more

Super great wood fired pizza. The salads are also fabulous- I love Nomad Pizza! Family friendly but also a nice place to take a dinner date. The first experience I had here was with an Italian Language and Culture course I attended through the Princeton Adult School. I guess that's a glowing example of the level of respect Nomad generates in the community. Just go! Nomad does not disappoint ! read more

Throughout my years in Princeton my preferences in the pizza places have changed, obviously being a complete opinion I believe that Nomads has always been a truly great conterder both pizza and customer services have always been been great. My regular order is the pepperoni and the Nutella pizzas which are absolutely phenomenal. Always packed nothing more to say but good looking interior design and nice to dine in. So the only reason to not give them 5/5 stars is that I personally adore a good char on a pizza but my family do not. Great pizza place definitely worth it my eyes. read more

The guanciale and tartufo were excellent, but the spicy sausage was disappointing. It seemed like it was mostly onions on top of the pie, with a sprinkle of sausage. Would've preferred doubling on the tartufo. In general the slices had poorly distributed toppings so some had max toppings, while others were basically plain. read more

Nomad Pizza - L-R, tartufo, spicy sausage, guanciale - Pizza Near Me - Princeton, New Jersey

Fantastic pizzas. We each got our own and shared with each other. Took home the leftovers and enjoyed the pies for a second time.

Overpriced, disappointing "pizza". Mostly puffy bread and weak on toppings. More like focaccia bread than anything else. Wasn't planning on a serving of their political views on the side either with the "NO ICE" sign on the front door. The greeting sign was not appropriate in a dining spot where neutrality should be the welcome. read more

I think that Nomad is one of those places that you either love, or don't. Their service is friendly, the atmosphere, while a little loud, is what I'd expect to see in a more modern version of a pizza joint. The real issue comes down to whether or not you like the type of pizza that they serve. Here's the deal: If you like a soft, chewy dough, then you're probably going to be happy here. If you're a fan of thin crusts that have a crust to them, then you're probably not going to by happy with your pie. I'm a thin crust guy, and to by up-front and honest, I'll take a Trenton style Tomato Pie over a pizza any day of the week. I'd ordered the Guanciale pizza and shared my wife's Arugula and Prosciutto pie. The Guanciale pie, seemed a little light in the main ingredient to me. There was guanciale on there, but it seemed more an added ingredient than the main attraction. I had pieces of the pie that had jam with no guanciale, which seemed to defeat the entire purpose of the combination. The Arugula pie was good, but five slices of prosciutto seems a small amount for the most expensive pie on the menu. I appreciate the place helping me try to keep my cholesterol down, but I expected a little more of those ingredients on my pies. They weren't bad, but they weren't what I'd hoped. Having a soft, breadlike texture didn't help. The salads were good, and didn't seem overpriced. I liked the arugula salad the best--it was simple and to the point. My philosophy on salads is that if the leafy greens are good enough, then you don't need to waste my time with a bunch of toppings. To that end, the Greek salad was a little busy, but was still good. The others at my table seemed to enjoy the Caesar salad, but to me Caesar salad needs its own Casca and Brutus to put an end to its existence--however, the others at the table, as mentioned before, seemed happy with Ceasar, so I kept my dagger sheathed. The meatball appetizer surprised me with its light texture and flavor, and it was definitely something I'd order again. As I mentioned, the service for our table was friendly, although it took a long time for our drink orders to be delivered. I like it that they had some interesting soda options instead of being held hostage to the usual Pepsi/Coke choices. All in all, our meal was fine, but the pizza is just not my type, and I was underwhelmed by the ones I'd ordered. read more

Love Nomad! They serve artisan pizza so it's not your run of the mill pizza restaurant. It can get a bit loud at times.

Service was great. The restaurant was flooded with children the night we went (seemed like some PTA night out or something) and so naturally, the restaurant was louder than I'd think is normal. We asked our server to move us to another table that was farther from the children and he nicely helped us with the request. We order 2 pizzas, the Guanciale and the Hot Soppressata. We enjoyed both but liked the Hot Soppressata a bit more. The tomato sauce is light and the spice from the meat is a perfect cut/pairing with the light sauce. We also loved the sweet fig jam on the Guanciale and thought it was great with the salty mozzarella. The dough is sooo fluffy and perfectly bouncy. Would definitely love to come back the next time I'm in Princeton again! read more

It's hard to find good pizza, it's even harder to find good vegan pizza! Nomad Pizza has the best vegan pizza I've had in a long time. The vegan "cheese" they use almost taste like the real thing - not fake and "plasticy" like other places I've been. Nomad's service is spot on, the vibe is casual and low-key, and everybody seems to be having a wonderful time. read more

We, a group of about 15 people, went there for a friend's birthday in March, 2024. Parking is plentiful and we had a reservation---so we did not have to wait. We ordered several pizzas. The ambiance is good and the service is nice. The menu is fascinating and their pizzas are somewhat unique. Some of us are vegetarians and they had plenty of vegetarian options. They have gluten-free options though we did not order any such. We liked the taste of the pizzas that we ordered. Kids were very happy. Would happily go there again. read more

Nomad Pizza - Their brick oven - Pizza Near Me - Princeton, New Jersey

Terrible service. Waited a solid 10 minutes before I was greeted by a server. Another 5 minutes for my iced team to be brought to me which was just in a bottle. Mind it, I was a table/party of one. Wine is only sold by the bottle. The greek salad was okay; contained boiled egg which I thought was strange for a greek salad. The pizza was okay. Good flavor but soft, flimsy, chewy dough. It needed at least another seven minutes in the oven. Overall, would not recommend. read more

Great atmosphere and service. Parking can be a little frustrating since it's a strip mall with a supermarket and popular bakery nearby. Good size on the inside but gets busy fast. It was packed for a Thursday. Pricy. Pizzas range $19-$22 and wines were $30+ for the bottle. Everything was good. Bruschetta was a small portion. The arugula salad was great. The margherita was good but pretty plain. It didn't have enough basil on it and even though the crust was burned, the bottom was floppy. The seasonal spicy peach pizza was my favorite - it was super unusual. The jalapeños, peaches and arugula all went well together. The Tartufo is good but it's an acquired taste and barely pizza. No red sauce. The egg is unusual. The truffle is balanced and not overpowering. My favorite was the Calabrian spicy one. Bathroom is small and clean. Chairs are all metal but mismatched designs and sizes which is frustrating. My purse kept falling off my chair so I hung it on my friends. My friend mentioned how his chair was really small and uncomfortable. read more

Went here on a Saturday at about 5.. a nice amount of busyness.. not overwhelmingly packed, but lively enough. Had a nice mix of pop playlist lightly playing in the background... not too much where you couldn't talk or were distracted. I heard a couple faves, so I was happy lol. The ambience is I would say a bit upscale casual.. the kitchen is open, so you can witness the magic being made. Very friendly waitstaff... hello Nick! And management was just as nice... hello Shane! We were seated quickly... my friend ordered a salad with mixed greens, pomegranate, grapefruit, oranges.. with I believe feta cheese? It was nice with a light dressing. My pizza of choice which I would eat over and over again was guanciale--spinach, mozzarella, fig jam, garlic, pepper, and parmesan... it was not tomato based.. it was perfect. The brick oven gave the crust a nice char... and was perfect, not soggy at all.. a great combo of savory and sweet, just how I like it. I opted for a cappuccino to close out my meal, and it was just how I wanted it to be. Would I come back? Yes, if I'm in the area.. nice early dinner option.. and family friendly. read more

Solid pizza pies and a wonderful patio for outdoor dining. I like the eclectic mix of ingredients in their specialty pizzas. They give you a variety of flavors that you otherwise would not see in a pizza. The Soppressata pizza with spicy pepperoni and a hint of honey is very delicious. We added mushrooms which enhanced the flavor. The Arugula pizza comes with prosciutto and was equally tasty. Service was a little spotty as it was a busy night but the wait staff tried their best. Several pizzas arrived later in the meal and one didn't arrive at all. They apologized provided the pizza and then discounted the bill. Kudos for handling the poor service. read more

For a place as crowded and hectic as Nomad especially on a weeknight, I was pleased with the service and time it took to prepare our order (~20 mins). The pizza itself was delicious and filling for one person - somehow the bread portion is so soft after coming out of the oven and it really hit the spot. Waiter got lost a few times in the chaos and had to be reminded a few times to bring some items and the check, though nothing unusual for a busy place like here. read more

We ordered the vegan margarita pizza with cherry tomatoes, onion and basil. Delicious. Also had the shiitake/mozzarella pizza and it was lovely and comforting. Too full to get dessert. Ben took great care of us with recommendations and a side of extra red sauce (they should bottle this and sell it). Highly recommended. read more

Nomad Pizza is always such a treat, I find myself coming back here every time I'm in the area! They have delicious wood-fired pizza and casual, relaxing vibes, making it a great spot for date nights or outings with family or friends. The Guanicale pizza is my absolute fave for a slightly sweet and savory pie - the drizzle of fig jam surprisingly goes so well with the shaved guanicale. Or if you like truffle, the Tartufo pizza is definitely a winner here. Love that they have a vegan option as well, and they have different daily specials if you want to mix it up. Side note: I've attended a wedding where they had a Nomad pizza truck at the end of the night, and it was amaaaazing. So good. read more

Nomad's pricing over the years has not changed too drastically which is always a plus. I haven't been to Nomad Pizza in a long time until recently. I believe the pizza there is decently good and I would generally advise not getting the Margherita pizza. I was told by my friends that I also went with that the sauce on it was a bit too salty . I will say Nomad does a stellar job with any pizza with a lot of garlic on it. The service is as expected. The pizzas were delivered in a timely manner and we had plenty of water for the table! Ambiance wise, nomad is cute, but their outdoor / not outdoor area is personally not my favorite area. The floor of that area was wet from the rain (not sure when they put the cover up) but overall it was still cute. If possible, I would in fact sit somewhere inside. Overall great. A little pricey but nothing unexpected. The specials are good. Skip the margherita pizza. Cheers! I will be back read more

Well I have to say strongly recommend you go to the farm market instead of their store. We had the pizza at the farm market when they had booth there. It's so delicious and staff was very friendly. Then we tried their restaurant and felt they are totally different. Don't know why. read more

I've had two chances to dine here the past month and had a great time, was surprised by the flavors both times. Got the spicy soppressata the first time and sausage with Calabrian chiles the next. Both great. They've been around a long time and the quality started high and has improved over time if anything. The Caesar salad has a handful of delicious white anchovies which I really love. They have wine but you can BYOB w no corkage fee. Good space for groups bc it's open and you can sit at long tables that can accommodate 12 or more easily. read more

Nomad Pizza - Sausage with Calabrian chiles. Amazing flavor. It's spicy. - Pizza Near Me - Princeton, New Jersey

Great pizza, good service, a little loud sometimes but nice space for a big group. Always enjoy coming here for hot soppresseta and tartufo

Got take out today, ride back the food smelled amazing, but it was somewhat of a let down after tasting. Here's what we got: - Meatballs and salad (2/5), 3 tiny burnt meatballs and some salad leaves (big uncut leaves, like they just opened a generic salad bag and threw a few pieces with some Parmesan cheese and called it a salad, and just a side of olive oil). Came with a side of marinara for the meatballs that was decent - Margherita di bufala with shiitake mushrooms (4/5), mushrooms were a nice addition that we added, the bufala cheese was meh - Margherita regular (3/5), odd cheese distribution, some of the pieces had so much cheese it tasted like a regular cheese pizza, barely any basil. Overall the pizzas were really doughy and the centers were thicker than Neapolitans I'd prefer, pizzas tasted quite bland and were cold when we got home (15 min from pick up to eating). Maybe they'll be better once we heat up the leftovers in our air fryer for extra crunch. Also, the meatballs were such a disappointment, how can you burn them?? We waited 15 extra min for our food to be ready when we arrived, they said they were running very behind tonight with lots of people eating on site. I had expected food to be undercooked since they were rushing to push them out for lack of time. The place was well decorated, and had both an "indoor" and "patio" seating. But cmon, the patio was adjacent to the indoor section and was fully covered, no ventilation or visible open windows, might as well call this part of indoor seating. One pro was that all workers wore masks, but tables were fairly close to one another and the place was super hot. When covid passes I'd love to give this place another try and dine in for the hot pizzas, but for now, onto the next pizza spot. read more

Came here for dinner on a weeknight. It was quite busy due to the nice weather, but it was also fast churning. The interior's got an interesting vibe to it. You get that industrial feel in the main dining room, where you can also sit right in front of all the ovens as your pizza is being made. On the other end, you can go past the garage and sit in the partially enclosed outdoor area. In hindsight, we probably would've had a good time sitting outdoors, but we were just as fine sitting in the main dining area. I knew about Nomad Pizza because my neighbor hosted a 1st birthday party and brought the truck over to serve pizzas for lunch. I was looking for some of those exact pizzas (i.e. the Trenton pizza), but I then realized that the menu given to us there was slightly tweaked and customized. There was no "trenton pizza." However, we loved the pizza Therefore, we had to look at the menu anew, which was perfectly fine. We ordered the following items: 1) Arugula Salad: This was a great choice. The pecans stood out to me. 2) Margherita Pizza: Solid pizza. It's pretty standard, but it was good. 3) Special White Pizza with Artichokes, Balsamic, and a bunch of other stuff: This isn't on the regular menu, but it was pretty damn good. I wish I remembered the name or took some photos. For 3 people, we were able to just finish all 3 of these items. The crusts are more thicker than your standard wood fired pizzas, but it's not heavy like the big box pizzas. If you're 2 people, you'll definitely be good with one pie. If 4, I'd probably consider 3 pies only because there isn't any option for appetizers beyond salads. You'll probably take back leftovers, but better that than starve. The pizzas are a bit pricey, but it's worth treating yourself on occasion. read more
