First time here
Pat M.

Since I was in Rockaway at lunch time today, I stopped at RJ's. This is a pizzeria which I've wanted to visit for a long time. It's conveniently located in a strip mall on Rt 46. The good news was that the 2 slices of plain were delicious! This is a nice thin crust that reminded me of pizza from Queens when I was a kid. It was also very reasonably priced at just $2 a slice. The one negative for me was that this was lunch time and the 2 slices on the counter were all there was to choose from. I would have liked to have seen what their speciality slices were like. RJ's is a place I'll definitely try again. Hopefully they'll be more of a selection next time.

Happiness is a warm slice of pizza! Inside, this place is spacious but cozy with checkered tablecloths, brick walls, and cute pizza quotes on the wall. Just inside the entrance, a board lists their tempting daily specials. By the counter, huge slices of about 8 kinds of pie wait ready to be reheated. I ordered Mama Nata's pizza which arrived freshly made and piping hot with a thin crust and square, topped with basil, mozz, garlic, and plum tomato sauce. Though the cheese sometimes slid off my slices, it was a pretty good pie that showcased obviously fresh ingredients. On another visit, I tried a slice of plain and a slice of Spinach/Ricotta/Mozz/Garlic and both really impressed me with excellent texture and flavor. I was actually full after the first slice but didn't mind having the second. All this good pizza left me ready for a nap and super happy. NOTES/TIPS: **Gender-neutral restroom. **Plenty of parking in a private shared lot. **Their menu's vast with several salads, subs, wraps, and seafood/pasta/chicken entrees. **I brought my own water bottle twice for dining-in around lunchtime and they didn't mind at all.

Have been working in Rockaway for about a year and was exhausted of the few options I knew of for lunch. After googling, I found RJ's was right down the road. We had the gnocchi lunch which came with a side salad or soup and 2 plain slices. I'm very picky when it comes to pizza but, the slices were HUGE and delicious. More of a thin crust pizza which isn't usually my favorite but, it was not super crispy so that was a plus in my book. The sauce was yummy and the cheese was real - not the artificial stuff a lot of places use now. The lunch gnocchi was a big portion and also delicious. Can't wait to try some more things off of the menu and maybe try the soup next time!

I didn't but I probably could

This is by far some of the Best thin crust style pizza around. They use only fresh ingredients and toppings here and you can tell in every flavorful bite. I tried the Supreme slice which I found to be 'out of this world'. The sauce is delicious and not acidic at all while the cheese has just the right amount of perfect melted goodness. The crust has a crispness to it and makes for an excellent foundation for this very delicious pizza. Service is extremely friendly and the dining area is above what you would find in any of the local pizzerias. Really cool and welcoming vibe going on with nice decor. They have a delivery service here as well which I'll definitely be checking out in the near future.

Order them, and you get exactly what you hope for. The classic pepperoni slice hits all the right notes, with that beautiful char on the bottom that gives just the right crisp. The square pepperoni slice ups the game with creamy dollops of ricotta and smaller, thicker slices of pepperoni that curl into perfect little cups. The sauce leans slightly sweeter than the standard slice, which works beautifully with the toppings. Behind the counter, one multitasking powerhouse was handling phone orders, walk-ins, and takeout with effortless precision, all while being genuinely delightful to chat with. A note for square-slice lovers: so many spots display nice large slices, then cut them in half when you order--false advertising at its finest. Not here. You get the full, glorious square slice you expect. Kraves has officially earned its spot as our go-to local stop for a quick, satisfying slice.

The garlic parm sauce on the wings were a bit lacking and the amount of meat on the cheese steak was only half enough to really fill that long roll. And the most irksome thing was the 2,23 % "technology fee". No offense but WTH is that?????? If it was to use the credit card, it wasn't explained at all. Look, if you like a funky bar with good food and you are in the area, I would say check it out once in your life and form your opinion. But, for me, I just don't know how often
