Great pizza, crust was amazing and overall good quality cheese and tomato sauce. Service is a bit slow if you order in. One of the best pizza pies around by far read more

Ralph's truly did meet every expectation. By far one of the best pizzas I've ever had. The sauce was perfection the flavor of the quality cheese they use. And that perfect crisp yet fluffy dough. Upon entry that old school pizzeria ambiance tells you the product they produce is going to be great. The staff was so very accommodating and nice. Even while he was cranking out pie after pie he stopped gave my daughter some bubbles and put in a show for her tossing pizza dough in the air. That's not on the menu but making a little girls day you can't out a price in that. If you're in the area definitely stop by Ralph's grab a slice, enjoy the ambiance, and enjoy the best pizza you've ever had. read more

The pizza is amazing there. The sauce the cheese is amazing. Also the slices have absolutely no flop. The people there are very nice and give good service. It's nice in there. It's a little small but there is a place to eat outside and they do have a dining room to eat at a specific time. Definitely recommend it. If you are in Nutley New Jersey go try Ralph's, you will not be disappointed. read more

You can't go wrong with the pizza and wings at Ralph's! Ordered on a Friday night and had to wait a bit because I think they forgot to get the pizza ready since I ordered ahead of time. Regardless, 10/10 pepperoni pizza - thin crust, cheesy, and delicious! 10/10 wings full of flavor! read more

Amazing pizza, in my top 3 for sure! Very old school traditional pizza place inside. Has more formal dining area, pizza dining and covered outdoor seating which is great. Woman who rang me up was very kind, price was very reasonable around $21-$22 with tip. She brought it outside when it was ready with plates. Pizza itself has amazing crispy, love the cheese. I didn't like the pepperoni as much as the plain but will definitely be back. Must eat at pizza place for sure. read more

My favorite place to eat in the world. I know that sounds like a lie but it very may well be. Eating it for 40 years!! Everything is amazing but something k recently tried for the first time was the veal Milanese and the wedge salad. Both amazing and I have never ordered a wedge salad. read more

Ralph's Pizza never misses! The pies here are just on another level--crispy crust, great sauce, and that perfect cheese pull every time. You can tell they've been doing this for a while because everything comes out consistently delicious. The staff is super friendly and always quick, even when it's busy. The place has that classic NJ pizza shop vibe--laid back, welcoming, and full of regulars who clearly love it here. Whether you're grabbing a few slices or taking a pie to go, you can't go wrong. Easily one of my favorite pizza spots in the area! read more

This is a takeout review. A lot of street parking and personal lot in the back. Something about the dough in this plain pie. It's not too much dough, the flop is perfect. It's not a thin slice but it's not a thick one either. It's not heavy which makes this guilty pleasure even better. This was the first time trying their eggplant parm sandwich too and the eggplant parm slices weren't greasy -- huge plus. Highly recommend-- maybe we'll dine in one day! TIL then-- this is a sweet spot for the perfect pie read more

After a full day of hunting Pokémon at the nearby park, my friends and I were starving and decided to give Ralph's Pizzeria a try -- and it absolutely delivered! We ordered a large pizza and garlic knots, and not a single bite was left behind. The garlic knots were packed with flavor -- tossed in a rich garlic dressing and sprinkled with real garlic chunks, they were seriously addicting. The pizza had that classic, comforting taste -- a little on the greasy side, but still delicious. Inside, there's plenty of seating and the atmosphere was surprisingly calm and not loud at all, even with a steady flow of customers. Great spot to unwind and share a meal with friends. I'll definitely be back for another bite! read more

Ralph's certainly lives up to the hype...there's no doubt about it. If you haven't been, I highly suggest giving it a try. Not only is the pizza delicious but the real star is the dinner menu. The portions are beyond plentiful. If you're like me, the leftovers will last you days...yes you read that right. Ralph's always has a lot of delicious and unique dinner specials in addition to the menu which has a great variety of items to begin with. Honestly one of the best parts of the meal is the oil they give you to dip the bread in. It's so flavorful. I could literally make a meal of this, it's that good. Everyone that takes care of you is very friendly and accommodating. This is a must try regardless of where you're coming from. read more

Wow! I came here after watching a One Bite Challenge video. Dave gave an 8.9 and I would agree completely and this was amazing pizza. I was on a mission to try some of the best rated pizzas in Northern NJ. Today was Ralph's and Star Tavern and a third was derailed by someone else that wanted to try a not so highly rated pizzeria, Cedar Grill. I'll review on their pages but if you try, like me, to try these other places, I'd say don't bother and stick with Ralph's, period, end of story! I got two slices, a cheese and a sausage. Both were exceptional and I may have enjoyed the cheese slice the best. The crust was thicker than I expected and had a great "undercarriage" and an unexpected but nice crunch. The flavor was amazing. It looks like they cook the pies in a pan and I'm not sure if it's fully cooked in a pan or partial. Regardless of that, the pizza had great flavor and I wouldn't hesitate to go back and get more, daily! Seems like it would get quite busy in the small pizza area and there was a sit down restaurant attached. I went early (1130am) and had no trouble getting my pizza quickly. Staff was friendly and seemed appreciative of the business. On to the next top rated pizza joint but will definitely be back to get more pizza at Ralph's! read more

Absolutely love and miss Ralph's. My kids have grown up on Ralph's pizza. We've spent many summers sitting at their patio tables crushing pies. We've since moved away to an area of the country with a sad pizza scene. We always compare the pizza we get here to Ralph's. Old school Jersey pizza place. Not just the pizza that we love but also the vibe. Very nostalgic. Remind me of childhood. read more

I don't adore bar pies the way some do, but I can still appreciate a good one. Ralph's was solid - good sauce and the crust was sturdy, although I found it to be a bit dry. Can't give it a fair review on the cheese since we got a margarita with fresh mozz. Alone, I'd give it 4 stars and I'd go back for a slice. My 3 stars comes from the fact that to be seated in the "restaurant" area, we had to order entrees along with our pizza that just didn't come out great. I got the truffle pasta and my friend got linguini with pesto sauce. He could not finish his pasta. My pasta was heavy on the truffle oil. Both were missing salt and featured overcooked pasta. It felt like being at a different spot from the pizzeria altogether. Altogether, I'd come here for a slice but would not come back for a family dinner. read more

Ralph's Pizzeria - Bar pie with fresh mozzarella - Pizza Near Me - Nutley, New Jersey

Dear Dave Portnoy, I feel like you lead me down a bad path. You issued Ralph's a high rating. I don't understand. My pizza was lackluster. Nothing special. a solids standard 7 at best. For everyobody else: We got caught between the take out and dine in folks. One employee says sit in the dining area, the dining area employee told us we couldn't! WHAT'S THE DEAL??!! After a few minutes of confusion, we were seated in the dining area. (Just to give you all the details- there are only like 3 small tables in the take out area and they were all full. We were a party of 5 that would be ordering more than a slice or two.) We had the waiter who rejected us from the area and I constantly felt like there was a communication issue. He would not take our order in pieces, we had to order everything all al once! (Weird!) We ordered 2 pizzas, mozzarella sticks and a cesar salad. The salad arrived and I requested additional dressing. I think he gave me a side os mayonnaise! I am not kidding! Is he messing with me or does he not understand me?? The thing he dropped off had no Cesar flavor at all. I just kept moving on. Bottom line the dine in experience was not welcoming or easy. The pizza was not an 8.9. We won't be back Ralph. read more

We stopped and ordered a thin crust and a thick crust pizza. We watched one bite review and saw they received a 8.9 and were pretty excited to try them. Unfortunately we were very disappointed with their pizza. We've had pizza all over and they just don't measure up in our opinion. One bite needs to do another review because they are not anywhere close to an 8.9 pizza. read more

My friend got Ralph's for us and told us that Dave Portnoy had rated it an 8.9. Once we heard that the pizza police had given their stamp of approval, I was even more excited to try! The pizza was absolutely out of this world. Thinner crust, super crispy and cooked to perfection. You could hold the slice up and it wasn't super soggy and dripping oil this is the real deal north Jersey pizza baby!! Next time I order I'm going to pick it up in person and hug the guys making the pizza. read more

Good place, the food was great, nice pizza (ny style) the best part was the mozzarella sticks in my opinion, the sauce of both the pizza and mozzarella sticks really pulled it together. The service was slow, but keep in mind it was a Saturday night during dinner time, so on Saturdays expect a wait. The indoors looked like a pizza place from the 1900's pretty cool in my opinion. The outside was just a tent with hanging lights. That's all I have to say...I would recommend. read more

If I could leave zero stars, I definitely would. 61 years of greatness???? WHERE??!!??? This was possibly the most disgusting pizza & garlic knots I've EVER had. Marinara sauce was more like red water. Garlic knots were small, oily as F**K, and no taste of garlic. The best thing that I had out of my order was the San Pellegrino Limonata beverage. read more

I finally made it to Pizzeria C after hearing so many great things about Ralph's Pizzeria.

Definitely a spot worth visiting if you love great pizza. read more

Pizza is ALWAYS delicious. I will stop anytime I am in the area....customer for life since the first try.

Disappointed. Been raving about Ralph's to my friend and finally got him there. The last time I had pizza here it was amazing. This time the crust had a raw taste to it. I ordered it with sausage. You needed a blood hound to find the sausage. The dog couldn't find it. No taste of sausage read more

There's clearly a reason why Ralph's Pizzeria has been around for over 60 years. It's a neighborhood staple with great food and service. The dining area is small but says nothing compared to the great service you receive. It's a BYOB with a liquor store conveniently located across the street. There's ample parking in their parking lot. Jordan, our waiter was personable and very helpful with our food and dessert menu. Joe, assisted with taking our order of several trays for an upcoming family event. We look forward to coming back more frequently. Friendly service and delicious food deserve frequent visits. Next time I'll take some photos of the food. read more

How did we end up here? Funny story, we have a fave spot in Livingston and the owner there has treated us so well the last year. I once asked him where HE goes if he is not eating his own pies and he told me of Ralph's and how it has been a staple for him for as long as he can remember. Say less. The family and I ordered a large thin cheese pie and our son ordered an extra marg slice while I had a corner Sicilian slice while we waited. The marg was a huge hit with our son and he devoured it! I loved the Sicilian's sauce and crunchy flavorful crust. I could eat the crust as is! Now the thin was exactly what I have come to love in NJ as a Carolina transplant- flavorful and plentiful sauce, cheese close to the edge and cooked slightly towards the well side of things. We ate until we barely made it to the car. We also came out the gates hot and this explains why you do not see the whole pie here. Will def be back when we are anywhere in the area. Oh and courteous and friendly staff too! read more

Very good thin pizza, just not as great as I was expecting. It wasn't cooked as much as it could have been so the bottom was a bit too blonde for my taste. This robbed it of some crispness. The cheese was very good but there wasn't enough sauce to make a call one way or the other. Not as much caramelized cheese around the edge as I was expecting. Definitely fell victim to overblown expectations. Would I get it again - absolutely. Would I drive 45 minutes for it - No. Pretty good though. And it did grow on me by the second piece. read more

Came here on a Thursday afternoon for lunch with a friend. The place is fairly small. The place had a bunch of awards for its pizza. We ordered a pepperoni slice, a margarita slice, fries, and 2 drinks. Everything came up to $20. The food came out quickly. The fries looked a bit sketchy. The pizza was ok. Nothing to rave about. read more

The best!! Thin pie well done is exceptional... dine in or take out pasta dishes my favorite Chicken Abruzzi very good

Bad Pizza in NJ is like saying bad bagels in NYC . It's an Oxymoron ! But this place is the exception not the rule . I knew from previous tries it wasn't good but one never knows maybe the third time is the charm . Clearly not . This place has a huge banner that reads NJ best pizza ?? Since when , according to whom ? It celebrated 50 years in business but hasn't aged like fine wine . Perhaps they are resting on their laurels . The pizza is ALWAYS burnt , oily with cheese dry . Imagine a slice in NJ you can't fold !?!! because it's cardboard hard . Blasphemy ! and at $2.50 such a small slice at that ! There is a restaurant attached , i ate there once like 3 decades ago , never went back . read more

After a year on my radar, I finally made my way to Ralph's in Nutley. Inside is old school charm and more importantly everyone is very nice and helpful. Parking is a little rough but they have a private lot down the street. We went with our usual Buffalo Chicken pie and I went with the Ralph's Pie (The works). After seeing it in the case, I should've gotten the Margherita but I was feeling like an everything pie. Next time, I'll hit the Margherita. Both pies were phenomenol. Well done just like I like it. Nice and thin but little flop. Ingredients were fresh. Buffalo Chicken was just enough spice and not overpowering. Have a little ranch or blue cheese ready as it could use just a drizzle. I started with the mussels with medium sauce which may have been one of the best I've had from a Pizzeria. Sauce was very flavorful and chunks of tomatoes mixed in. My younger son got wings and he devoured them before I could steal one. Lastly, we added a meatball parm hero as leftovers are always good the good day. Meatballs were very good, just could've used a little more sauce. I found myself dipping it in the sauce from the mussels which is a little taboo but it worked. read more
