    Cheese pizza and a pepperoni slice
    James E.

    This place definitely has great pies. And love how old school the place looks with the wood oven. Never been in the front of the restaurant. We always get slices on the side of it. We ordered slices and took a seat outside. They don't have much seating, just two tables. And then brought out our slices out to us. Delicious. If you're in Jersey city definitely stop by.

    Doms eating the whole vodka pie for himself!

    Still consistently great food!! Calamari is light and crispy, and the vodka pie is fresh, crisp, and flavorful! Love it here. Real food without the gimmicks of other places.

    I appreciate a classic pizza joint and apparently it's family run and old school which is the vibe you get when entering. I am a Neapolitan style guy and they do not promote it being a Neapolitan style spot however the three things that I seek to gauge quality is the dough, the cheese, and the sauce. This place has a nice sauce, borderline sweet and you can tell it's made with love. The cheese was pleasant but it was smothered in sauce, an odd rendition of Margherita but it was pretty good. The thing that killed it for me was the dough. The crust is that unpleasant middle ground between thin crust and not quite NY slice thickness so it's not even worth eating. Thin crust can just be blended into a slice while a thick crust or Neapolitan can be enjoyed separately because its got body and you can savor the flavor. It's really disappointing because the photos on line do look enticing and SOMETIMES even if crust has this girth, it still is backed with some fluff or unique flavor but this just fell short. I'm giving it 3/5 merely because of the quality homemade sauce and faint flavor of quality cheese.

    This pizza joint is doing it right. They use the backward technique by putting the sliced mozzarella on the dough then add the sauce and toppings. A very tasty style pizza that takes a little bit of time to make due to their busy location. Even though this is a very tasty pizza, it's not something that I can rave about. Nonetheless, it hits the spot with a clean tasty feel. Yes clean. Not heavy in oil or super doughy... this can be a nice cheat meal!

    Cesar salad
    Adrienne M.

    WOWWWW just wow! I ordered for pickup which was quick and easy. The staff was attentive which I loved considering there was a lot of people waiting for orders. They made sure each person was greeted and had an ETA on when their order would be out. 10/10 for customer service! I decided to order a cesar salad, a small "Kathy" pie and Mikes hot honey. The pizza was amazing, especially with the hot honey drizzled on top. the cesar salad is now one of my favorites! Not a lot of cesar salads have the shaved parm so I truly appreciate one that does. Everything about this place is a 10/10 to me. I can't wait to come back and order more menu items.

    A little surprised with the mixed reviews because I love this place. I've only done take out twice but both times have been great. I can see why there are negative reviews on the service, as they aren't the most friendly people. However I would continue to come back here as I've personally had a good experience. Pizza- made fresh and they are often making it whenever I walk in, and baked in wood fire oven. Flavors are great and you can tell its an authentic pizza. The small pizza is perfect 12" personal size and definitely large enough for me to eat for a meal, I usually eat four of the small pizza slices and am full. I also had their salad which is okay, nothing to write home about but a good accompaniment to the pizza. Service - not the friendliest people and definitely very straightforward, no formalities and they are there just to give you your food, which I don't mind as I'm doing pick up and my orders have been accurate. They double checked with me too what food I ordered before I walked out. If you do pick up you go to the door on the side street. Haven't eaten in before but its BYOB and has a few seats on the inside.

    The Kathy
    Mike V.

    The pizza is very good. I'm not the biggest fan of thin crust but this was great. Got the Kathy and the Mike (fried eggplant instead of prosciutto) and both were so good. Can't really go wrong. The prices weren't crazy for Jersey City. It was easy to get a table on a Tuesday night for dinner. Jersey City isn't overflowing with great pizza and I'd recommend here if someone asked where to get a pie around the downtown/Hamilton Park area. This is a 4.5 kind of place but gets the bump up for how friendly and helpful the staff was and how quickly everyone came out.

    Tiny space. The food was great. Bread and fresh olive oil. Garlic bread with sauce. The service was impeccable. You can bring your own wine.

    Margherita pizza with meatballs on one side. Small
    Marisa M.

    Excellent pizza and really nice staff. We ordered a small vegetarian pizza with meatballs on one side. But we got a margherita pizza delivered instead. I called up and the person I spoke to was so nice and said we can keep the pizza and they will send another. The cheese is really great quality and the flavor of the whole pizza is really good. A small is enough for 2 people. They cut it into 6-8 slices. The kale caeser salad was also very good. Came with bread and was large. The parmesan cheese they put on it was creamy and not stinky at all it was very good. Same with the dressing. The first online order you do through thier website is 10% off. I will def order again! Totally affordable. Under 30 for a salad and pizza for 2 including delivery, tip and tax charges.

I stopped by in a group of 3 for dinner and we decided to start the meal with their bread and butter tasting ($18). If you love butter, this is totally worth it! You get to try two varieties of their baked in-house breads and the cultured butters they serve are really fun to try. I appreciated that the butter servings were big enough that I could slather a generous layer of the butter onto each piece of bread. My only regret was not ordering more bread. Another pleasant surprise was their salad! I'm usually not one to order salads at restaurants (I could just make it at home!) but I was pleasantly surprised by the salad they had that day. We ordered 3 of their pizzas to try a variety and to take leftovers home. The pizzas were savory, cheesy, and the crust was as delicious as I'd expect! But if I were to be completely honest, I'd save my stomach space to just have a meal full of their bread.

We had already ordered bread (also good, but some of the butters are an acquired taste) and almost skipped the meatballs. So glad that we didn't! Definitely worth a visit. :)

For appetizers, we got zucchini chips, fried calamari and mussels. The calamari was fried too hard and it had a very salty, spicy Chilean type sauce over it. The zucchini chips were thinly sliced, lightly battered with Parmesan cheese sprinkled over them. They were decent but nothing to write home about. In fact, after having about six or seven of the zucchini chips I began to experience heartburn from the grease. For entrees, my husband had the chicken parm. He said it was too thick and should have been flattened more before frying. It was also very breaded. My brother-in-law ordered the chicken and waffles and he said the chicken tasted day old so after having a bite of one piece of the chicken he pushed the chicken aside and called it a day. I called the waiter over and informed him about the chicken tasting day old. He didn't try to change it out or take it off the bill or get a manager. He just apologized by saying I'm sorry. My crab Mac and Cheese was decent. It wasn't seasoned the way I would have liked but the huge, plentiful chunks of crab made up for that. I ate a third of my dish and packed the rest for home where I will doctor it up to my taste. I've never been to this particular restaurant before. The only reason we came today is because my brother-in-law was here on business and staying at a hotel in the area.

While the inside of the restaurant isn't large (note they have a larger back patio area as well) it's cozy and parties of two may share a larger, communal table which can be a nice way to make friends should you choose. As others have noted it's a BYOB place with a convenient local wine-shop just a minute or two nearby. The menu changes regularly though we got many of the classics that have stayed on the menu (only missing the Angry Chicken which we'll get next time). The pastas were delicious though I wish the rigatoni was a bit saucier and really enjoyed the ravioli which had a lighter, mid-summer flavor with some pine-nuts for extra texture. The ricotta bread and honey was tasty though a large portion for two people and we felt that the standout was the halibut. My only complaint is the 3% mandatory card-processing fee (which at least is prominently displayed).

Both were great and cooked perfectly. The quality of ingredients were a standout in both of the dishes. Pork pampanella was the most tender pork I've ever had. Basically melted in your mouth. Very fatty and heavy (a little too heavy...) but delicious. 4.5/5 overall. Some of the dishes were missing a little something to take it all the way but I'd still recommend this spot tho. Also it's BYOB!
