    a street corner with a stop sign
    Marie Y.

    Pizza is possibly the best in the Downtown Newark area, especially for the cost, but don't expect friendly service because then you won't be disappointed. The one guy who tends to manage the cashier is sometimes friendly, other times quite surly, so don't take it personally and keep your eyes on the delicious prize that is the pizza. Tons of seating inside, but it can get crowded and noisy during lunch time. My preference has been Queen over Robert's for pizza, although I do frequent both -- Robert's is preferred for pasta. Due to the unfortunate fire that affected Robert's recently, Queens will be my pick for pizza for the foreseeable future.

    A good spot to grab lunch in downtown Newark. They have breakfast, cold and hot sandwiches. Pizzas are sold as pies or slices. Food quality overall good, though I'd have liked them to use softer breads for our cheesesteaks. The garlic bread is average. They have a huge canteen like area for dine-in, plenty of space to sit and enjoy meal with your team/group.

    Large pizza with half broccoli topping
    Jeannette L.

    Too tired to cook dinner yesterday, I decided to get takeout from Queen Pizza for me and my SO. I stopped inside the corner pizzeria on Halsey Street and ordered a large pie, half broccoli. The guy behind the counter was nice and told me it would be about 10 minutes as he was making it to order. While inside waiting, I looked around and noticed that the space is pretty expansive. There's ample seating with a whole area of tables and counter seating. The place has high ceilings and huge windows, so there's lots of natural light and feels airy in there. I could see it being a good lunch spot to eat in. Plus, there are two flat screen TVs. Before leaving with our pizza, I did my usual ritual - dose the pizza with garlic powder, oregano, and red pepper flakes (It's in my head, but I always think these things taste better from the pizzeria shaker. You can have them at home, but it's just not the same). Classic, NY-style pie. Great crust, just the right amount of crisp and soft, not tough at all, had a good fold. The broccoli side was not soggy at all (that's a test when ordering pizza with veggie toppings - it's done right when not soggy). Pizza was the right choice. Will definitely return and try out other items on their menu - paninis, pastas, sandwiches, hot/cold subs, burgers, etc.

    Nice bubbles and color on the bottom. They know what they're doing here.

    Pizza for breakfast? Yes, please. Queen Pizza was voted number 16 in the whole state of New Jersey! They make their dough every day. It's fresh and properly cooked. The cheese is great quality. Good value. Open early too!

    Prudential Salad... Sorry so good I started eating it already :)  Prudential Salad
    Irving R.

    Been coming here for a long time now and I normally get a Prudential Salad with chicken. That salad is delicious and I highly recommend it. The pizza is better than Robert's. The place has a nice clean modern look. Highly recommend this place as a lunch spot.

    Specials of the day!

    Queen Pizza is always reliable. Their pizza is always very fresh. You order from the counter. Customer service is always very friendly. They have daily specials now. The Chicken Focaccia sandwich is delicious. It has Gouda, Tomatoes and Lettuce. They have a variety of beverages such as Coca-Cola, Stewarts Root Beer etc.. They even offer breakfast bagels and muffins. You'll see people from all walks of life enjoy food at Queen Pizza.

    Rabe, sausage, and tomato slice.
    Ziqin Y.

    Everyone at work seems to have an opinion of this place, good or bad, so I finally came here for lunch yesterday not knowing what to expect. I got the pizza with rabe, sausage, and tomatoes, and I definitely liked it but it wasn't mind-blowing. The crust was crispy but not too thin to hold the toppings, and each slice was a solid portion--overall a solid slice. However, one slice was almost $4. For someone used to slices closer to $2, it felt pretty expensive for what it was, especially with cheaper options in the area.

    Best pizzeria in downtown Newark by the court building and Prudential. Always fresh! The place has plenty of selections of different pies and plenty of seats for patrons. They organize the lunch rush by setting up areas to order certain type of meals, such as the pizza line, hot food line, and sandwich line. Your wait isn't that long, which is great since it's located in a busy business area. I've been to other pizzerias in the area and this is hands down the best one!

    Halsey Street - breaded chicken, broccoli rabe, and mozzarella cheese on garlic bread
    Christina D.

    Queen Pizza is a great place to grab a quick lunch when you are in downtown Newark. When you enter there are two lines, on the left you can order sandwiches, salads, entrees, etc. and on the right you order pizza (by the pie or by the slice). My go-to meal is the Halsey Street sandwich with chicken cutlet (vs. grilled chicken) which is garlic bread, breaded chicken, broccoli rabe, and mozzarella cheese. It is delicious. The garlic bread is crispy and the broccoli rabe adds a nice tartness. Sometimes, the chicken can be a bit dry but overall the flavor is good. My friends always get their pizza by the slice and they say the pizza is delicious and the slices are huge!

    "Would you like some lemoncello? Orangcello? Anythingvello?"…read more Angelo, one of the owners, is talking to the table next to us, but already I know I've found a second home. "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 were seated at a table and instantly impressed by the friendliness of the waiter and visit from the pwner. The menu is classic Italian food (no pizza). They bring out a plate of bruschetta on crostini bread which was fresh and delicious. For food, we had Veal piccata and Chicken Francese. My son had Pasta bolognese. Definitely prefer the chicken over the veal, and my son ate his whole,e bowl ao Id say the bolognese is really good too. Veal was just a little tough but the sauce was totally on point, saved the meal. We will absolutely come back to try more dishes. Homemade pasta will def be next visit. Excellent ambience and great friendly staff. Love it.

The food was absolutely amazing really flavorful and well done. Just be a little prepared that most dishes come in smaller portions. But the quality definitely makes up for it. I ordered the paella, and it's easily enough for two or even three people and it was well worth it. Really delicious. The drinks were also definitely worth trying while you're there.

    Girls' night rule #1: pick a place with a vibe. Girls' night…read morerule #2: the food better back it up. Burke's Tavern understood the assignment. None of us had been before, so we walked in blind, except not really, because the second we stepped inside the vibe hit us. Dimmed lights (but not "can't read the menu" dim), candles glowing, plants everywhere, music just loud enough to feel cool but not loud enough to ruin the gossip. Cozy. Chill. Cute. The holy trinity. It wasn't packed, so we had seating options and landed at a round table in the middle: elite positioning, honestly. Door and front windows on one side, bar view on the other. Prime people-watching real estate. Now let's discuss the important part: the food. We ordered strategically (read: everything we wanted). Lamb meatballs - 10/10. Holy crap. I don't know who is back there doing what, but please continue. Burrata pizza - absolutely delicious. Gone in record time. Gochu-Crispy-Chikin - no notes. Million Dollar Chicken - appropriately named. Fish 'N' Chips - zero complaints across the table. And that's the thing: not a single person in the group had an issue. No side-eye. No "it's good, but..." Just clean plates and happy energy. Now. Parking? Disrespectful. It's on a corner (love that), but finding parking took effort (do not love that). Would I let that stop me? Absolutely not. Parking be damned. I will circle. I will walk. I will manifest a spot. Because this place is such a vibe that it's already secured a return visit -- brunch is calling, and I need to see what this place feels like when the weather warms up.
