We went to STR PIZZA today for our first time. Do you know when you discover something or someplace and it's so off the charts great that you can't wait to share it? Well, that's how I feel about STR PIZZA! ~I don't own it, I don't know the owners...my friend and I hear they are new Italian/Pizza restaurant and that they are having a special this week of $1.25/slice...so off we went to have lunch there today. Wow! I have owned restaurants in New York City, and I'm telling you that every single thing about this restaurant is excellent. For the minute we walked in we were greeted so warmly and comfortably at the door. We were given menus and sat down to go over what we wanted to have. We each got two slices, I also got the eggplant Parmesan platter, and my friend got the chicken Caesar salad. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean, large selection of beverages, all the classic Italian favorites plus some really cool menu items like Big Mac pizza and the General Tso's chicken pizza. Every little detail is done right...the way young woman at the front counter brought us our flatware wrapped up so nicely and was so friendly and helpful and warm she made us feel completely at home. The plates and bowls are really beautiful...and the food? Omg! The pizza is absolutely delicious! Eggplant Parm platter came with my choice of pasta (I chose angel hair) and a large delicious salad...the platter is so yummy and big and fresh and just loaded with cheese and delicious sauce! Same with my friends Cesar Chicken salad. My friend couldn't believe I ate the whole platter of the eggplant Parm, but it was so delicious. There was no way I was not gonna finish it! On one side, they have a big party room where you can help family events, school events, and parties. Even the bathrooms are classy! On the other side they have a really sweet singing room which happens to be decorated for Valentines Day! So sweet! Its an amazing place! We can't wait to go back. Take my advice, you're gonna LOVE it! read more

If you're anywhere near South Toms River and haven't tried STR Pizza, you're seriously missing out. I stopped by on a busy Saturday night to pick up an order, and let me tell you--this place is doing things RIGHT. I ordered the Grandpa Pie (house-made vodka sauce, fresh mozzarella, basil - $26), and it was absolutely to die for. This is hands down the only spot in the area that's clearly using real, fresh ingredients instead of cutting corners. You can taste the difference in every bite. The vodka sauce had that perfect rich, velvety flavor, the mozzarella was fresh and creamy, and the basil brought everything together. And the crust? Textbook perfect--crispy on the outside, soft and airy on the inside. It's the kind of pie that makes you stop mid-bite and appreciate life for a second. My girlfriend ordered the Veal Marsala dinner ($24.95). It comes with a side salad and a little bit of bread. The veal itself was cooked well--tender and not overdone--but the flavor was a little on the mild side. It felt like it needed a touch more salt or an extra layer of seasoning to really make it pop. Still enjoyable, just not a standout the way the pizza was. The place was clean, the staff was friendly, and you could tell they were hustling--super busy night, yet everyone kept a great attitude. I can't personally speak on delivery since I picked up, but while waiting I chatted with a couple of regulars who said the delivery is always quick. Overall, STR Pizza earned every bit of this 5-star review. The quality, the atmosphere, the service--everything shows they take pride in their food. I'll definitely be back, and that Grandpa Pie just made its way into my top favorites in Ocean County. read more

This is the second time I tried to order a sicilian pizza from this place. The first time it was burnt. This time, I told them do not burn it. Sure enough, I got home and it was burnt. I called them, and they were very hostile about it. They did not believe me, said I had to bring it back to get my money back. I did that, and they didn't know what to say when they saw it was BURNT, besides telling me not to return because they cannot make pizza. read more

So we have been fans of LT's, STR Pizza's predecessor at the same location, for a number of years. We were sad when LT's closed, but were thrilled to see the new place open. It's early, but we've had two experiences with the new folks. The pizza was very good (my wife ordered the grandma pie, which is very good in terms of the quality of ingredients - I'm just an old-school Neapolitan fan.) The sausage parmigiana sandwich, again, had very good, quality ingredients, except for the bread - my opinion obviously, but Italian bread should crunch when you bite into it but soft inside. This bread was soft outside and inside. Hang on! Fast forward to tonight, my wife and I didn't feel like cooking nor were we in the mood for Italian, so she ordered an STR burger (eat your heart out Fat Patty's) this was a GOOD burger. I ordered a cheesesteak sandwich; bless their hearts, I don't know whether they've changed vendors, but this was Italian bread worthy of the sandwich - every bite was crunchy. Plenty of meat, all in all very satisfying. If you're a fan of Pat's or Geno's in Philly, (I'm not a fan of Cheese Whiz) I'm not sure this will meet that style, but on its own, I thought it was very good. Welcome to the neighborhood STR. Keep up the good work. It's all about the bread. read more
