awesome pizza spot. super friendly staff and clean dining area. they actually thanked me for waiting for my well done thin crust, even tho I showed up well before pickup time. plus, I saw the barstool review so I knew that waiting for the perfect crust was more than worth it! the Italian sub, and the linguini with white clams were also delicious. read more

They seem to overheat their ovens. Consistently burnt crusts. Have tried several times, hoping each would be better. Won't return.

Honestly I've been holding off leaving a review because this place is already busy enough but this is the best pizza in the area and it isn't close. Every order is exactly as requested and the ingredients are top notch. The Grandma is superb. Get it well done. You're welcome. read more

I really like their pizza pies, but Friday's wait time is almost 2 hrs.. As long as you avoid ordering on Friday and Saturday evenings, you won't be disappointed, otherwise pick another place around - plenty of good choices within 5-minutes drive. read more

Prima Pizza Kitchen is a delightful neighborhood pizzeria located in Somerville NJ. The staff was very friendly and inviting and service was quick. I went with a plain slice and a Margherita slice. The plain had a lovely, thin, crust. The cheese was pleasantly toasted and, though it was on the greasy side, really tasted great. The sauce was also notably good. This is a great standard slice. The Margherita slice featured a really great sauce and fresh garlic which packed the slice full of flavor. It also had the same thin-crust as the plain with a nice, smokey flavored crust. I enjoyed Prima and believe it's a good example of a decent neighborhood pizzeria. read more

Well...how to describe a pizza sans cheese? NOT.A.PIZZA. Pictures on Slice are, to say the least, false advertising. Too bad. I was looking forward to finally finding a good pie in this place. Guess I'm spoiled by Joe's in Vauxhall, NJ. Pphhh! read more

Delicious NJ pizza! The sauce often makes the pizza and Prima did not disappoint. The roasted eggplant marinara was like a crunchy, thin crusted slice of delish! Great service and laid back atmosphere made our visit very enjoyable. read more

My friends and I were in the mood for pizza and we stumbled upon this place. I love it. The guys are super nice in there. The first time that we went I got the sausage and pepper slice and the eggplant pizza. The eggplant pizza is firrreeeee. I never thought that I would like eggplant on a pizza but this is a must try comibination. When we got it straight out of the oven there was a little bit of water accumulation from the eggplant, but it was still good and the edges of the crust were still crispy. If you want to try it make sure you go in before the lunch rush. If you call ahead they will put you a piece to the side as well. The crust is crispy and airy, the sauce is perfect. I you are a pizza person I definitely suggest that you try this spot! you will not regret it! I wish that I had a piece of that eggplant pie right now. LOL. read more

Wow. My family and I ordered from here for a pizza party through Grubhub. I scheduled the order a couple of days in advance and the pizza was delivered exactly on the dot! Soo impressive! The grandma was unreal. So full of flavor. I mean this is one of the best pizzas I've had in New Jersey to be honest. We also ordered pepp and onion (my go to) and a sausage, mushroom, and jalapeño. The pepperonis cup and are slightly crispy on the edges. The pies are loaded with the toppings. Such good hot, fresh, and salty pizza! Yum. Can't finish the review without mentioning their garlic Parmesan wings. Wow. Best garlic Parmesan wings I ever had. The family couldn't stop taking about how good they were and I wish id ordered two of these instead one of the Buffalo (also good). I'm so glad I discovered this spot and even though my parents live farther than we'd drive for a local pizza shop, it is worth it!!! I'll be coming here again whenever I am back home. I wish I took photos but was too busy enjoying. read more

Gave Prima Pizza Kitchen in Somerville a try tonight. Went with the Sicilian and a large 1/2 plain 1/2 pepperoni (requested thin crust). Both were nice pies. The Sicilian was not the typical thick crust Sicilian, more like a grandma pie crust. Light sauce and cheese, and next time I think I'd order it not as well done, but it was very tasty. The large pie was also good, and they delivered on the thin crust request. Very friendly staff as well! read more

Typical little pizza place, but they have great sandwiches & their pizzas are so good. Their grandma's Sicilian is amazing. Their special pizzas are so good. Staff is always friendly and orders are always ready when they say they are. Hidden around the corner from Gaston Ave, a little bit off the beaten path but not too far out of town. A little pizza gem. Check them out! read more

Prima is our go-to spot for pizza delivery. My husband and I order at least once a week and are never disappointed. We've tried at least 10 different pies but some of our faves are traditional 1/2 pepperoni with extra cheese, the champlain, and the drunken grandma. One of the things I like best is the crust. I hate when pizza has great toppings and a bland crust but theirs has the perfect amount of salt and it's not floppy or too hard (that's what she said). My husband always gets an order of garlic knots which are usually soft and perfectly garlicky. I am OBSESSED with the prima salad (I ate it before I could take a pic sorry!). It's like eating a deconstructed Italian sub - I love how the meats and cheeses are chopped up into bite sized pieces and paired with the sun dried tomatoes and chickpeas. It's just amazeballs. I have to give a shout out to the delivery driver too. I'm so sorry I can't remember his name but he is so timely and professional. Our apartment complex is a little complicated and he always knows exactly where to drop it off & is super friendly. The guys at Prima are great and we love supporting our favorite local pizza place. read more

The eggplant pizza was top notch. Even the plain pizza was incredible. Glad I found my new favorite pizzeria!

The employees are amazing. The food is great. Can not recommend this place enough. It is the best pizza in Somerville NJ. Sometimes I have to stop myself from ordering from this place twice a week. I'd also like to add all of the meals that this place served to the hospitals, essential workers during this pandemic. They deserve a medal. Order the upside down pizza. YOU WILL NOT regret it. read more

Prima Pizza Kitchen - Half upside down, half pepperoni pizza. Sooo good !! - Italian Near Me - Somerville, New Jersey

Quite possibly the best pizza in the area. The drunken grandma pizza is always made with the same elite quality and the staff is super friendly. My wife and I stop by every Friday for their pizza specials and the pizza is always fresh. Highly recommend for anyone swinging by the Somerville area. read more

This is a nice clean mom a pop shop with good pizza. The pizzas at the display look a little overdone but they taste just fine. Good even. It's conveniently located on N. Gaston Rd., in Somerville, though they don't have a road-facing entrance or a sign on the road entrance that there is a pizza place and I can imagine how much business they must be missing out on. Perhaps they should put a sign out by the road. Their 2 Slice Special with Soda for $3.95 is very budget friendly. Almost every other person that walked in ordered it. read more

Been ordering for years. Prima always has quality food and excellent pizza! Definitely the best pizza in Somerville!

Food isn't bad but the customer service has a lot to be desired. The gentlemen with the black hair was extremely unfriendly and really turned me off this place. Why patronize a place where the business owners are rude? There are about a dozen pizza places within a mile radius that are friendly and appreciate your business. read more

I have heard great things about Prima for months, was in the area and needed to try. My brother and I went for the Champlain pie, which was hands down a 5/5. The crust was incredible and the marinara sauce they use really brings it over the top. The pie looks like a piece of art. Jerry is a great guy who has mastered his craft, and hope this place gets all the recognition it deserves. I can't wait to go back soon and try the upside down grandma I have heard about, and many more of their special pies. The 2 slice/1 soda deal they offer is so amazing, class act and genuine great people! read more

Has to be the worse pizza in NJ. Very sad because years ago when this place opened it was delicious. Now horrible. No flavor no taste. Chicken over cooked. read more

Prima pizza has been a place with amazing food, customer service and support to the local community. Prima makes you feel like family

This is by far my favorite pizza joint in NJ! Back when my boyfriend lived in Somerville we would order from here at least once or even twice a week (that's how much we love it)! A plain Margherita pizza is great here also but we always loved getting the Buffalo Chicken pizza along with Mozzarella Sticks, Fried Calamari, and Garlic Knots! We've even tried the Hawaiian Pizza (I'm a sucker for pineapple on my pizza) and Meat Lovers Pizza -- all fantastic choices!! We would always make sure to order a large so we could have leftovers because even the leftovers from here would taste good! Pizza here overall is amazing and I miss it so much! read more

By far the best pizza I've tasted ever is the Eggplant Marinara pizza at Prima Pizza Kitchen which takes some time, so if your in a hurry, don't order this one. I never ever thought I liked eggplant on pizza until some friends raved about this one! They did not lie...now I'm hooked! I believe they sauté the eggplant to order and it is just seasoned and not breaded! Then they put the prepared eggplant on the pizza and bake the pizza. They finish it with fresh sprigs of basil and then a nice sprinkling of Parmesan Reggiano! Felicimo! Really quite delicious and they crust is gooey yet not raw and tastes superb! Give this one a try if your in Somerville or take a special trip. read more

A solid neighborhood, budget pizza option. Would recommend the eggplant marinara pizza. Enjoyed the food and would stop again, when in the mood and in the area. read more

So one thing is certain, and I am peripherally associated with the restaurant business, this place is excellent. Really first class. Forget the goofy reviews, and even Fox News, those are alternative facts. This place is great. There is cooking, and there is talent. These people have talent. Just walk in and look at the place. People clean, facility clean, pizza in the case looks like art. You can't make a wrong decision, so many things are great, one pizza better then the next. read more

Excellent pies cooked perfectly to my liking. The owner was incredibly friendly and personable, and the restaurant was immaculate. If you're looking for good people doing pizza the right way - this is the spot. Already planning my next order. read more

Jerry X comes correct with his pies. The upside down spicy square is is insane! Also try his 'Portnoy Special'.

We ordered a pizza tonight before 5:00 pm and not only did the pizza arrive over one and a half hours later it was ice cold! all the delivery driver said when I questioned him was "Sorry "! We only live two blocks from the shop, why was it cold!! The only explanation I received fro JERRY at the pizzeria was that it's Saturday night and they are busy. We contacted SLICE who graciously refunded our entire purchase. Love SLICE but will not be patronizing PRIMA PIZZA again. Horrible customer service! read more

Placed a catering order from here and did not disappoint. Had some issues placing the order over the phone earlier (might have been during a busier time) but managed to get a hold of someone later on and placed the order by messaging them. Food was very good...penne vodka, eggplant parm, chicken francese, buffalo pie, grandma's pie. Standard Italian fare but done well and reasonably priced. Will definitely come back for pizza in the future. read more

Pizza is great. Never been disappointed in any that I've had. However, their garlic bread definitely needs improvement as they barely cook it. read more

Highly recommend! I was torn between deciding on a baked ziti pie and a grandma pie, and luckily they were able to accommodate half and half so I could have both (see picture). The entire meal felt as if I was in heaven. High quality ingredients and both options are what I consider to be some of the best pizza I have ever had! My boyfriend ordered the chicken parm and raved about how the red sauce was one of the best he has ever had. If my wallet and waistline allowed me to order every day, I would! read more

A+ pizza! Came in today for a half plain half pepperoni pie and it was delicious. Best around in my opinion and I have been to just about every pizza joint in the area! My 11 year only son said it was the best pizza he ever had! Sauce was sweet and tangy, pepperoni was sweet and had a nice bite whiteout being too spicy. Staff was friendly and the atmosphere was welcoming. To top it off the prices were very reasonable. This just may be our new favorite pizza spot. Looking forward to our next visit! read more

We love Prima! It's our go to pizza place in town. I love their eggplant parm sub too! This time we decided to do catering trays for my son's birthday and they were SO accommodating to his allergies and went out of their way to work with us. On top of being so helpful, it was delicious! Our family raved about the food! read more

OMG this place is incredible!!!! Best pizza now close to home - finally! And it's so nice also for dining out in the weekends - we went as a family and had a great time. Absolutely recommend it for anyone read more

In town visiting for the holidays, and we wanted to get some tasty NY style slices -- Prima Pizza did not disappoint. 2 slices of cheese pizza + soda for $3.95?! SOLD (that price will barely get you one measly slice in SF). We tried a few different slices, but their cheese pizza was my favorite. You can tell a lot about a pizza establishment by their cheese pizza. Simplicity trumps everything. Their crust was perfectly crispy & thin while keeping the slightest bit of chewiness, and the tomato sauce + cheese ratio was spot on. It was so delicious. I'll be thinking about them for days, months, and years to come. read more
