OILY CRAP REGULAR PIE
Mo P.

Way too much oil. It's all over the pizza. All over your fingers. All over your lips and chin. Literally everywhere. Never again.

The small size of the place is evident here along with the parking lot.

They have a unique style of pizza which is quite good. The place is very small, but they have a couple of stools at the counter and some small round tables, but is a little cramped. Of course there is the requisite Sopranos memorabilia on the wall. The parking lot is shared with a neighboring business, so sometimes there are no spaces, but there is street parking. It is also a bit hard to get out of sometimes. They do have some pie and slice specials, but it is always good to ask what they have going on currently.

Come for the Sopranos vibes, stay for the two slice and a soda special ($5). Just don't look too hard when everything comes out of a broken down freezer and into the fryer/microwave. It's the posters and memorabilia on the wall that brings you here, not the food. That being said the pizza wasn't half bad!

Filthy oven

Please please please do not go here. The pizza is pure grease and the place is disgustingly dirty. If you don't believe me look at the oven which has not been cleaned in decades.

Slice of meatball was delicious. Enjoyed watching then make pies as I waited. They use deep dish style trays almost Egyptian like. Hospitality was on point. Ambiance is super charming and 1960s old school awesome. Recommend.

Tony Soprano once remarked, "Well, when you're married, you'll understand the importance of fresh produce." So, in my opinion, the folks at Pizza Land are probably single. Don't get me wrong, the pizza is fine; but it's not great. Still... "a wrong decision is better than indecision", as Junior misquoted Cicero... so, if you're in northern Jersey and no one offered you Whitman's Sampler (Oh poor you!)... then swing by Pizza Land for the Nostalgia of watching the Sopranos. And while you're there, eating a greasy slice and definitely not using the broom-closet-bathroom, remind your son to buy land, 'cause God ain't making any more of it and that they're only as good as their last envelope. Stammi bene!

Cheese Stromboli
Sofia D.

If you've ever watched Sopranos you know what pizza land is- I recently watched the entire series and I looked up all the places. Pizza land it's the next town over. I was craving a calzone so we decided to order pick up I got a pepperoni and cheese calzone and my husband got the meat Stromboli The only complaint I had was he missed adding the pepperoni, to my calzone- however, just the cheese was delicious - the meat Stromboli was extremely delicious.

Eggplant parm hero
Pete B.

Pizzaland has upheld its thin crust tradition in yet another visit to this place. This time I added an eggplant parm hero to the mix as well. We got the Buffalo Chicken pizza as usual and the Quattro Formaggio pie. I was a little nervous that the 4 cheese pie came with American cheese..... but it worked.... I'm telling ya.... These thin crust pies hit the spot. A tad on the pricey side but very good. The Buffalo Chicken pie was not too spicy and the 4 cheese had the right kick with the zing of for different cheese hitting you at once. Eggplant parm hero was above average. Better than a lot of pizza places. Sauce and cheese was excellent. The downfall was the the eggplant was a little too chewy. On this rare occasion, we did delivery because I was just exhausted and it took a little over an hour. Everything was hot and fresh, so no complaints. Just be prepared for a good wait if you're offering delivery.

Hands-down, the best pizza I have ever tasted in my entire life. And just so you know before you…read morego....they only sell FULL PIES, and trust me, you're going to want the whole thing anyway! The pizza was absolutely incredible. The crust had that perfect crisp while still being light and flavorful, the sauce was delicious, and everything came together perfectly. You can tell they put so much care into every single pie they make. There's something about finding a pizza spot that keeps things simple and absolutely NAILS what they do, and Casano's is exactly that. No slices... just fresh, delicious whole pies made to order! The quality really speaks for itself, and this is easily a spot we'd come back to again and again. If you're in Rutherford or anywhere nearby and consider yourself a pizza lover, Casano's needs to be on your list. The chicken Parm is absolutely amazing too !! Here's a list of my favorite pies that I LOVE : Stracciatella vodka New Haven White Garlic French Onion Pie I also love the fact that it looks like stepping into your grandmas living room inside. The old decor, furniture, and everything else makes it feel so cozy!! Service is excellent and everyone is so friendly !!

I tired the cheesteak because he made it look so good on Instagram. What I got was not that. First we had to wait almost 30 minutes which is fine if the food is worth it. The cheesteak I got had maybe 2 ounces of meat and cheese. Very skimpy. Would not get again if that's how they always come out. If not these kids need to learn to make it the way the owner does. The place is awesome! He did a great job recreating the old feel and I love it. I still have to try the chicken parm. I'll be back if he is working. If not I'll probably walk out.

For food, we decided to order a bunch of things to share: -Zucchini fritte (with lemon aioli dipping sauce) - this was thin and perfectly crispy but somehow not oily. It was addicting -Arancini - these were okay. Could have used more meat -Margherita pizza - can't go wrong with a margherita. I do wish the actual crust was thinner -Meatball & Co pizza (meatballs, sweet sausage, cherry peppers, tomato sauce, mozzarella & ricotta cheese) - same with the crust situation. The description also said cherry peppers but they also added jalapenos, which is not a big deal - just a call out. The sausage was alright -Seafood fra Diavolo (sauteed clams, calarami, mussels, spicy tomato sauce) - sauce could have used a bit more spice. They don't skimp on the seafood though. I was pleasantly surprised by the calamari, which can taste rubberband-y but that wasn't the case here -Tiramisu - tasted fridgey/supermarket-bought -Affogato - a nice way to end the meal. Made me wonder why I don't make more affogatos at home Overall, it the meal was fine. Is it something I'd crave for? I don't think so. Well, maybe except that zucchini fritte. I wouldn't mind ordering that again. Tip - BYOB (there's a liquor store across the street)

Where else can you find multiple shoe repair shops ("cobbler" - there's a Scrabble bingo word for y'all!) rubbing elbows with state-of-the-art apartment complexes, and a smattering of 'hip' and 'hot' new restaurants that keep getting rave write-ups and making all sorts of "Best of..." lists. If you're a working stiff that doesn't want to break the bank to feed your family - you can't help but appreciate that there's a place like Da Mario's that's not chasing 'likes' but remaining humble and knocking out damn good food that's affordable and tasty. The pizza is solid. Good taste, a satisfying crust, it's not going to lure any 'influencers' their way and that's fine. (Da Mario's doesn't look like a place that has any social media presence and I'd bet they still have a dedicated fax line!) The garlic knots looked 'basic' but they had a serious smack of flavor that took me by surprise, I can't lie. (And their mozzarella sticks were a hit with my kids.) And - per the usual - I must order cavatelli and broccoli when I see it - and they absolutely nail it. Not the most comfortable chairs to sit in? A table you're expecting to be a bit wobbly? Generic maps and drawings of Italy on the walls? The place is bare bones... nothing fancy, exactly what you're expecting from an old-school pizza joint. Crew behind the counter - awesome. Metered street parking (but this block is incredibly busy, so you'd be keen to drop a quick prayer to St. Frances of Rome - the patron saint of car drivers - to help you find a spot). A family of four stuffing their mugs for about $8 a person? In today's economy? Cosa non è da amare.

To start: there's a small parking lot in the back but otherwise appears to be street parking. Both of our cars found spots in the lot since we got there a touch before 5pm. When we got in there, there was only 1 table of two people occupied but we were asked if we had a reservation which we didn't have. Admittedly, it was a bit of a last minute decision to go out so it completely slipped my mind to look to see if I would be able to reserve something but it was before 5pm so I'm surprised we were met with such resistance. Luckily, they were able to take us with warning we would need to be out by 6:45. For reference we left at 6 since we only got entrees. The place itself is somewhat small and has a little covered patio which saw had some tables. It's no frills and the menu wasn't all that extensive. I swear there is more of a menu on their Slice app for takeout ordering. Bread was placed on the table as well as a water pitcher. To be honest, I didn't think the bread had much flavor and my husband and parents agreed. We were pretty hungry so we did finish it (even when bread isn't great, it's still good in my book) but we weren't offered any more than the first basket. All of our entrees came with salad which were typical pizzeria salads-not bad, not amazing. My mom and I both ordered the Chicken Avellino (chicken breast sautéed with chopped red onion, red peppers, sliced hot cherry peppers, shitake mushrooms in a white wine sauce with a touch of plum tomatoes) which came with roasted potatoes. I'm not the biggest fan of spicy but I thought I could just take off the sliced hot cherry peppers and be okay. Wow was I wrong because the entire dish had a kick to it. Even my mom who gravitates towards spicy food admitted it was hot. That said, the quality of the chicken was phenomenal. It was thin sliced and very good. My husband very much enjoyed his Scaloppini Marsala and my dad liked the Pollo Francese but did wish the sauce was a touch thicker. I will say I think the quality of the food served is very good but the portions are not plentiful. I'm guilty of always taking home and making another meal or two out of what I get out somewhere but all 4 of us cleared our plates. At a $30 price point I just wish there were larger portions.

Margarita Slice (8.6/10) - Sauce was plentiful and savory, with a touch of sweetness that really brought out all the ingredients. The cheese had a nice pull and the basil provided your typical margarita taste. Combined with the crust that added nice crunch, this margarita slice fostered a harmonious combination of flavor town. Nonna Slice (8.3/10) - The nonna slice provided a unique twist on the typical margarita flavor town. With a chunky marinara sauce,, and squareness, every bite if done correctly gets the perfect of all its flavors (town). The flavor of the sauce was not quite as tasteful as the OG margarita, but still served for a fun slice of goodness. Rice Ball (7.7/10) - Although the rice ball was 70% rice, the flavor of it with the meat and peas came together to make a yummy mush. Along with the crispy surface and side of (sweet) warm marinara sauce, the rice ball is a nice dish to have in the coziness of your home. Drunk Sicilian Slice (8.2/10) - Exactly what you would expect from a slice of pizza made with vodka sauce. In its unique square shape, the cheese is melted nicely across the creamy sauce and the rich crunchy crust. The cheese was the star of the slice with so much all over, it's everywhere. Penne Vodka Slice (8/10) - Tastes like what it looks like, a lot of pasta with less room for the sauce to shine. The slice was gimmicky but was a fun attempt at combining two fan favorite dishes. There was some cheese present on the slice but was met with a mouthful of barely toasted pasta. The pasta itself brought a rather mild taste that could've been replaced with a more flavorful option. Still fun to try though.
