Healthy & Delicious Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad
Lindy Z.

PJ's has literally never stopped being the absolute best in covering all ranges of your food palate. The food simply is made with love and it shows. This salad was healthy and very delicious. It did not have one speck of iceberg lettuce, instead it was filled with robust greens. I truly enjoyed my dish and the place was clean and staff was great! It's a little tight in there but it's worth it!

Grilled Chicken Salad with balsamic vinaigrette

Really like going here for the grilled chicken salad. This is a regular lunch spot now. I'll be venturing further into the menu and will be expecting good things! Worth a visit

Penne vodka, cheese and pepperoni slice
Gissell M.

PJs is a college staple for most RU alumni. I was excited to experience a moment is nostalgia and dig into a chicken bacon ranch slice but unfortunately it is not kept behind the glass anymore and must be ordered by the pie. I grabbed a penne vodka slice and it was just as I remembered. Not overly sauced, salty or soggy. Pizza had the perfect crunch and it was enough to satisfy my pizza craving. Note that they do not add and additional toppings to the pizza slices. Restaurant was clean, tables were cleaned off and they offered a pretty vast Snapple/drink selection.

Curbside pick up details
Stephanie W.

I wanted to support a local business and feed my craving at the same time. Nothing says comfort food like pizza and PJ's has some of the best. Thick soft crust, perfect sauce, bread, cheese ratio. The system to order and get your food was simple. I went with pick up and added a tip... since the students are gone, I know revenue has gone down. Anywho, the pizza was delicious and did the trick. Another satisfied customer.

Beef gyro

4.5. Place is legit. Met my husband here for lunch not too long ago and ordered the Pork Schnitzel and Gyro sandwich. Both were bangin'. Full of flavor, not greasy, simple sandwiches. Definitely want to come back and try more from their menu. Guys working were really nice. Only PIA is parking but that's anywhere in NB.

Chicken Caesar Salad
Peter B.

I had always thought their pizza was really good but I loved my 1st Caesar salad here. Chicken was grilled nicely and they give you plenty of fresh ensalada!

Out of the hundreds of pizza places on Easton, PJ'S is my favorite. I love getting a slice of their buffalo chicken pizza with bleu cheese drizzle after a long night out. Though pricey (~$4 a slice), the heat from the buffalo chicken is perfectly balanced out by the warm bleu cheese. The staff is so nice, especially considering they deal with drunk college students all night long. PJ's tastes great whether you're drunk or sober!

Perfect place for pre or post Knight club fun! Had a pepperoni and penne vodka slice and they were REALLY good. It was very cheesy without skimming on the tomato sauce. I usually don't like penne vodka slices because they tend to be dry however this was one was loaded with sauce! Definitely worth a try.

Roxanne O.

Quick, no frills pizza for drunk college kids. Except you won't regret it because it's actually pretty good. I ordered a buffalo chicken slice and it came out hot and crispy before I knew it. Not much else to say--it's a good standard pizza place for Rutgers.

Average pizza. Much better local pizza places close by. Figured I would try it based on reviews. Much over rated.

Quick and easy ordering process, staff don't waste any time getting your order & getting to work on it. Oddly enough there is an ordering kiosk at the counter right next to where you would order with staff. I guess that is for if you're feeling anti-social. Sitting area upstairs, so it is not wheelchair or elderly friendly for the sitting area. No outdoor seating. A very hustle & bustle kinda deal. We had the double patty smash. Overall was it "WTT?" Worth The Trip....YES! Absolutely!! The burger was amazing. It tasted like the smashburger in my mind. Perfection! So even at 30 minutes from my house and horrific parking, I would definitely come back. Grades: Double Patty: A++

I just wish there was something fresh or crunchy to balance out all the soft textures from the bread, beef patty, and cheese. I also added beef bacon to my burger, even though it's not listed as an add on the menu. I really wish more of these newer smashburger restaurants had lettuce and/or tomatoes as an add on topping. That would help cut through the grease and make the burger feel a little lighter. The restaurant is very clean and bright, I liked the atmosphere while I was in there and the staff were nice!

So the ambiance is pretty straight forward, however it really stinks in here, like chitterlings,…read morethat would be my best comparison that comes to mind. They made the food fresh, it it took mad long for there to be absolutely no one in here. I used the bathroom and was welcomed by a bowl full of piss. The service started off cool but once I notified the cashier that she charged me for fries I didn't order, she acted like I made the mistake. The best part is, you go and pick up your food by reaching over the garbage cans. The cheese fries were 10 out of 10... A nice amount of cheese whiz, plus the fries were like the coated type of fries so they were able to withstand the Cheese and maintain their integrity throughout. The wings were an 8 out of 10, I love the crispness of the wings, and the flavor, plus the garlic Parm sauce was really good, but I just wish they would've poured the sauce on the wings directly. Nonetheless, they were really good and worth ordering again.. My Son said the burrito is an 8 out of 10. I got the triple smash, and it was kinda good, however, the OG sauce is something I could go without never having again in my life and be very happy. 7/10 The milkshakes aren't bad either. I like that they were thick yet smooth at the same time if that makes sense. Although the last quarter of My Son's shake was straight ice cream that he needed a spoon to finish. also, they use paper straws that get soggy by the time you get to the end of the shake. 5.5/10 Overall, this wasn't a bad experience. The food was definitely the savior here after the trash service and horrible smells. I can just see why everyone got their food to go. If we were here for all of 45 minutes to an hour, about five customers came in to either pick up online orders via food carriers, or came in and ordered to go. Next time I'll Uber Eats.

A short walk later, I found myself at Destination Dogs, a place I had seen in photographs that suggested capaciousness. In reality, it is smaller.  This is not a complaint, just an observation.  I remember once hearing something about the contents of small packages. At 12:30 the place was full. Packed with humanity and appetite. I was seated quickly, as if someone had anticipated my hunger in advance. From the bar came the sound of construction crews discussing their midday rituals. Apparently this is where they come on Fridays, to repair themselves while they repair the city. It explained everything. Service was swift and attentive, a minor miracle given the crowd. I began with a Scotch egg, an item that seemed to have wandered in from another story entirely. I ordered it for that reason. I had always imagined my first Scotch egg would be eaten in an English pub under low ceilings and older regrets. Instead, here it was. Perfectly crisp, warm, and generous. The universe does not ask for permission. Then came the main event. The menu is an atlas of hot dogs. Domestic. International. Proteins in tube form arranged like possibilities. There is even an invitation to build your own, which I accepted. I attempted to recreate a favorite from Crif Dogs, a thing called the Spicy Redneck. Bacon wrapped dog. Pickled jalapenos. Coleslaw. Simple in theory. Destination Dogs improved upon it in every way that matters. The bacon crisped with purpose. The jalapenos spoke clearly. The coleslaw behaved. The hot dog itself seemed proud to be there. All of this, plus a 16 ounce beer, cost me about twenty five dollars with tip. A small price for order in a chaotic universe. Five stars. Not because perfection exists, but because this comes close enough to make the argument.

I walked in on a rainy Friday night shortly after 10pm and it was freezing cold on the inside. Shreya was working the register and was extremely present and nice to speak with. I asked for her recommendations and of course she suggested the burger. I took her up on that option and ordered a bacon cheeseburger. She said the fries were also a must. I was extremely hungry, so I also ordered the Chicken Club Burger, crispy instead of grilled. She asked me if there was anything else I needed and I jokingly said a side of heat. She checked with the other patrons inside to see if they were cold along with Jenn who was working and they concurred as well. Within minutes she was on the phone with the owner who quickly addressed the issue by cutting on the heat. A few moments and I could tell things were warming up. Now onto the food. Everything was hot. The burger was delicious, but nothing was too special. The fries were seasoned well and had a spicy sauce to go with them. The Fried Chicken club was AMAZING! By far the biggest chicken sandwich I had ever eaten. The chicken was juicy. I could taste the cheese and the bacon. The chicken was way bigger than the bun. I wish I had ordered two. Overall I had a fabulous time here. The seating area was clean. Customer service was excellent. They made sure I was taken care of. The food is good. If I'm in the area again id definitely stop by.

One look at the crowd told us the food had to be good. Even though you order at a kiosk, the staff are incredibly hospitable. Everything looked so good that we had a hard time choosing. We knew we wanted lamb chops, and they offer two styles: Australian and New Zealand. We went with the Australian, and it did not disappoint. The order came with two thick-cut chops, so flavorful they didn't even need the sauce. The wings were a generous portion with a nice sweet-and-spicy kick, and the paratha roll was just as good and full of flavor. I honestly can't wait to go back and try more!

When I approached the register, the employee asked who I was picking up for. I showed her the order information on my phone, and she checked it before walking away. The problem was that she never came back or gave me any update. I was left standing there waiting, assuming the order was still being prepared. After waiting longer than necessary, I had to approach another employee to find out what was happening. I was then told that my food had actually been ready for several minutes. That was frustrating because a simple update or acknowledgment would have avoided the entire situation. What bothered me most was that when I finally brought up the issue, instead of acknowledging the inconvenience, I felt like I was being brushed off with a quick "have a good night." I understand that restaurants can get busy, and I'm not expecting perfect service every time. However, basic communication, attentiveness, and respect go a long way especially when someone is simply trying to pick up an order. I'm leaving this review because the pickup process needs improvement. Management should make sure employees are communicating with customers and following through after asking them for their order information. A little better customer service would make a big difference.
