The Bee Sting totally hit the spot, perfect balance of pepperoni, hot honey, ricotta. I was helped as soon as I walked in, just how you want a pizza place to run. I'm not usually a pizza girl but maybe I will become one, being so close to this place read more

VB3 Pizzeria - Bee Sting - Italian Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

3 stars because when i had the grandma pizza for the first time, perfect balance of crispiness, cheese, tomatoes and just about everything was so good, including the garlic knots, i dont know what happened for the second time i went in to order the same exact items, but boy o boy wish i had never ordered it. Total 180 , too much cheese , too less of the garlic, tomato sauce, something went wrong, and the garlic parmessan knots? Yea forget about it. Hope they bring back the cook, or take notes! read more

VB3 catered a lunch for my team this week- OUTSTANDING. The staff was proactive, confirming my order, and checking in with me in the morning and again before delivery. The staff was warm and friendly, helped with suggestions for the dietary restrictions. The hot sandwich platter was delicious. There was so much food and the price was extremely reasonable. Highly recommend. read more

This is more of a bar lounge than a pizzeria. But Newport doesn't have many options anyways. It's a cool spot for drinks but pizzeria is not what I'd call it. read more

I've ordered delivery from here a few times simply due to the affordability and delivery time in comparison to other restaurants that serve pasta. The food is decent, it's fresh and has good flavors. It's nothing special though. I have enjoyed every meal I've had from there. For a $13 pasta dish you get a good amount, I typically save the rest for the next day. I recommend if you're craving pasta but don't want to spend a lot of thought or money on a dish. read more

First impression : GREAT!!! Megan the bartender was so welcoming and funny , and that is what you need when you go places . The food : food was very good , we had the mozzarella Buffalo salad and that was just amazing . The salmon was accompanied with vegetables and truffled fries . And the smoked house burger was perfectly cooked . The decor is nice , however the seats by the wall could use a little care . Overall was a good experience , the only thing I didn't like much was the smell from the pizzeria next door . That was a bit to strong , they need a better exhaust/fan system . We would definitely go back on the days Megan is there . And hopefully they will address the smell problem . read more

We wanted to go to the restaurant but I called and they don't have outdoor seating. And the host who answered the phone gave me an attitude about it. Because of the pandemic we don't feel comfortable eating inside. We ended up ordered delivery. The woman who took my delivery order also had an attitude. Delivery came quickly in 40 min. We ordered a personal joes special and penne alla vodka. The pizza was small, def personal. Expensive at 15 dollars. Othe pizza places we tried have bigger personal pizzas from 10-13 dollars. Also the description of this pizza is different depending if you look at the pizza menu or the restaurant menu. On the restaurant menu it also adds fresh basil and olive oil. Also no mention of it being a white pie. The pizza menu had the accurate description I found out. And I didn't see that menu when I ordered. So I was disappointed. I ended up adding fresh herbs myself to it! The penne alla vodka is 14 dollars. 2 people can share but it wasn't as big as I thought for the price. It's literally just pasta and sauce. Nothing special. There are much better italian places around. I suggest trying rustique pizza or krispy pizza instead. read more

Update: It's important for me that restaurants are part of the community in which they are located. In this case, unfortunately, VB3 is not. They have littered the entire neighborhood with handbills on cars, not only disrespectful of the neighbors, but also causing a lot of litter in the streets and direct a violation of municipal code. After this I will not return. read more

As a hungry vegetarian, this place hits the spot. I just came back from shopping at BJ's and wanted some old-school pizza. As a New York Expat, I missed the corner pizza shop. My brother told me of a place nearby and we walked and I was hoping there's a place where I could sit outside with my shopping cart and Bam. We found this place. It's spacious and the owner was friendly and the pizza was good. read more

I recently came here for happy hour, and i have to say i loved it. Parking sucks, i tried to find the correct garage to park in for free, but failed. However, the bar itself was clean and our server was very friendly and quick to serve us drinks. the drink and food specials are totally worth coming here. $3 shots? $3 beers? sign me up! theres also mixed drinks for $5. where this place fails, is the lack of good beer. there aint nothing special about their beer selections. its bare bones. onto the food....so the happy hour menu for food is a killer too. everything was very affordable. we grabbed the rice balls. which to be honest, i was pleasantly surprised by. they were pretty good! no meat inside of them either, i love that! very cheesy! the fried buffalo cauliflower wasnt that great. it was mostly batter, didnt feel like cauliflower, but as a bar snack? they worked. theyre cheap and tasty, but i wouldnt consider them buffalo cauliflower.the pretzel bites really grew on me. they remind me of going to the movies when i was a kid. again, these arent exactly michelin star pretzel bites, but for the price, i think theyre great for a bar snack. i will gladly come back because the service was good, and the happy hour was awesome! read more

Worst pizza place ever, I'd give minus stars if I could. We live in the apartment above this place and walked by it every day, finally decided to try when we got a coupon ($5 off for $35). I was going to order online first but the coupon didn't have any code so I had no choice but to call to place the order. We were put on hold for three minutes then ordered two personal sized pizzas and buffalo chicken tender, and informed her about the coupon (she said she will take off when we pick up the order). My husband went to pick up without any clue, he said the receipt was already printed and paid with cash. But when I looked carefully in the receipt - they still didn't take off credit card fee, nor $5 coupon, and charged 20% tip for pick up order. The only nice thing was that the portions were big, but that doesn't matter because food was so bad we didn't even finish half. Pizzas are flavorless (two pizzas tasted almost identical), chicken tenders were like sponge and fries were soggy (it could fold in half no problem lol) For this price there are so so many options in the neighborhood that this place cannot even compare to. I wish I donated this $45 for something meaningful. I would never ever go back, but if you do, I recommend to double check the bill. read more

This is actually a hidden gem. I did not expect to like the food that much. We definitely order more than we can eat but I was glad that we did since I wanted to try the whole menu! We ordered the Prosciutto Di Parma Pizza, Mozzarella Sticks, Chicken Wings (BBQ), and French Fries. The pizza and fries was definitely my favorite. read more

We made a reservation here on a Friday night for 6:30 (party of 4). It was recommended to us by staff from the hotel in which we were staying. We arrived a little before 6:30 and were seated immediately. It appeared that there was only a host, a bartender, and two servers for the whole restaurant. It took about 15 minutes to even get a water. We ordered drinks (took another 5-10 minutes) and food (another 20-30 minutes). I had an old fashioned. It was average. My wife ordered iced tea. I didn't know that sweet tea was a thing on the East coast (at least I certainly did not expect this north of Virginia)... in any case, her tea was the sweetest/icky sweet tea I've had anywhere other than the south. Apparently they don't even have regular tea. You should really warn someone about that hah! The food was pretty good. I had the vegetarian pasta dish and she had the mushroom pizza (with truffle oil) and it was yummy. Our other family members also liked their food. I would give this place more stars if it weren't for the weird tea and the slow service (I think they're also affected by staffing shortages--but just apologize and say so instead of pretending everything is normal). Food = 4.5 stars Drinks = 2 stars Service = 2 stars Atmosphere = 4 stars I would give it another chance in the future, but order out instead. read more

I've been visiting VB3 a lot lately and that is because of their Wild Mushroom Pizza! This review is based off of visiting for Hudson Restaurant Week on 7/29/19. Ambiance: This place has a sportsbar-ish, lounge feel, which it is so they hit the nail on the head. There is a full bar in the middle with a couple of tables surrounding the restaurant. There's TV's in most areas too. Food: Calamari, great. But the wild mushroom pizza, AMAZING. I get the personal pan pizza every single time I visit. It's something that I cannot sit here and describe all day you have to go try it yourself I promise it will not disappoint. If you like truffle cheese, crispy crust and sauteed mushrooms this pizza is for you. The Hudson Restaurant Week special was one appetizer, one entree and one salad for $29. Price: Typical JC prices. Nothing too crazy, reasonable. Parking: They have a free parking lot right on the same street which is a blessing since parking in Jersey City is absolutely crazy at times! Service: Waiters are always very attentive. Can't wait to come back! read more

Ordered here a few times now when staying across the street. Decent pizza and good sammiches.

This place was awful pre-pandemic and I confirmed yesterday nothing has changed. Regular slice is just terrible but the icing on the cake are the 2 nasty angry women behind the counter. They cannot be bothered serving people and they have the nerve to keep a tip jar on the counter. They should be tipping the customers for coming in and being subjected to their shit. There's no good pizza on the waterfront here in JC. What a missed opportunity. read more

What a great local stop for fresh seafood and pizza. Friendly and helpful staff despite coming in 10 minutes before closing! Muscles were huge with a yummy lemon butter sauce and the pizza, huge and tasty with lots of variety. read more

Stopped by VB3 for lunch after hearing great things about their pizza. My boyfriend and I were greeted by a friendly staff, who were wearing masks, and were immediately sat at our table. To start off, we ordered an appetizer of Mozzarella Sticks and I went with the Arugula Salad (Baby Arugula Tossed with Tomatoes, Red Onions, Parmigiano-Reggiano, Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Lemon Dressing). The mozzarella sticks were delicious & crispy and my arugula salad was fresh and packed with flavor. I would definitely recommend it! For my main dish, I went with the White Pizza (Ricotta, Mozzarella, Roasted Garlic, Sea Salt, Olive Oil, Fresh Parsley) and my boyfriend got the Classic Cheese Pizza (Tomato Sauce, Mozzarella, Fresh Oregano). The pizzas were really good and the crust was cooked perfectly. I was very happy with my decision and would love to try a new pizza next time I stop by VB3! read more

Every time I order from here there is a problem - but today took the cake! Uber eats allows you to order toppings they don't actually sell in the store. So they tell my delivery person to message me to so we need to order a personal pie with that topping. And sent them with no pizza and didn't bother to refund the $22 they charged for 2 slices! (One would think that's be enough to put the topping on a personal pie. Then the cheesesteak I ordered comes without cheese....and all of the toppings I said NO to were put on the sandwich and the one I wanted not - so clearly they are not reading comprehensively. I call the store and am given an attitude as if I'm the one in the wrong. The food is tasty but after this time, I'm done. read more

Great Pizzeria. Staff is really friendly and the pizza is great. I would definitely recommend to anyone in jersey city.

Amazing calzone with pepperoni. Rivals John's in Manhattan. Service can be slow depending on what you order. Your best bet - order online and take it home. Ambiance is non-existent but the flavor of their sauce and other ingredients is key to you returning for more. Delivery fee charge when you pick up is a rip-off, period. They are out of step with that concept. read more

I'm in Jersey City for business. With Covid, the streets reminded me of a scene out of I am Legend; when Will Smith walked down the road with nobody around except his dog and zombies! Back to lunch! :) We ordered from Villa Borghese as it was recommended by a co-worker. I got the Italian Grinder (sub for you non Rhode Islanders) and the rest of my team had burgers and another Italian sub. The food was really good. The Italian subs had great bread, so needed for an Italian Grinder and the ingredients were top notch! They were pretty big too. The burgers I hear were cooked perfectly and the fries were still pretty tasty considering the food was delivered. The delivery was on time as well. I love coming to NJ because it is the closest thing to my home state of Rhode Island; and now that I'm in Kentucky, I am happy to get a taste of home when i can! read more

I ordered a turkey & Swiss club sandwich with sweet potato fries. I changed the cheese to American instead. I walked over from my office, picked up my sandwich and went back to work. At my desk I found that my sandwich contained zero turkey meat and it was drip drowning in mayo. The fries were soggy but that happens with sweet potato fries. Couldn't be bothered going back. read more

One of the few restaurants in the Newport area, we decided to give this Italian restaurant a try. We were in the mood for pizza that night and so tried a variety of their pizzas and garlic knots. Once cold, the pizza becomes very chewy so I recommend you eat it hot! 1. Large Pizza with tomato purée, jalapeños and black olives - probably my favourite pizza here! The crust is thin and crisp! Purée is good and the toppings are in abundant proportion 2. White pizza - I generally do not prefer a white pizza but to my utter surprise, this pizza is delicious. The ricotta is fresh and creamy. However it doesn't make the pizza too creamy to not want to have another slice. The taste of fresh garlic and parsley balance the creamy texture but do not over power the cheese. Must order here! 3. Large pizza with green pepper and olives - this pizza is nice. A regular thin crust with abundant olive oil, a crisp crust and peppers. 4 garlic knots - probably a miss. I found them a little dry. read more

Sooo came here a couple of weeks ago to watch the Erroll Spence and mikey Garcia fight after finding this location on YELP of course and it was pretty chill ... it got a little busy as the main event came on and it didnt help that my server had about ten table it looked like. That's good for her but sucky for us , a few of my condiment request got lost in the sauce no pun intended ,but other than that the food was my issue ... we tired the wings , calamari that I really wanted to love because it had fried peppers inside YUM but it was really fried to death times two . The remake that came out was much better just bland , but my highlight was the clam pasta . I didn't manage to take a pic that's how good it was however I wish the quality of pasta was better , but hey I can't have it all at a sports bar right lol all in all I'm willing to go back .The drinks were good as well .... read more

Now known as VB3 and sometimes called VB Average. The Margherita pizza is decent, and the pepperoni slice is only average at best. This place doesn't represent Jersey as it's only average at best. I would recommend heading down about 5 minutes to Hoboken for some great pizza! The Sports bar is now a speak easy hidden club, with the entrance being the window counter for ordering pizza. You can't miss this place at night as you will see 1 to 2 extremely large Doormen at the counter checking id's! Everyone is very nice at this place, it's just that the pizza isn'/..t anything special. Yes, its better than Dominos, Papa Johns, and Pizza Hut, but that isn't saying much. read more

Finally so satisfied with a pizza place in Jersey City. We ordered from them for a small gathering yesterday and the staff was so nice on the phone!! We have had couple subs from there before and thought were good size and delicious too. We ordered a buffalo chicken, wild mushroom and joes special large pizzas and although all three were delicious, joes special was on point! The ease of this restaurant being right next door to us and the food so far so good, I happy to call this our new go to spot! Can't wait to try more :) read more

This review is based on my dining experience sitting at the bar on a Monday night in the summer time. When you walk in it is a really cool modern vibe with a Nice size squared bar and seating all around it. It was an intimate place with dim lighting and decorative colored lights in the bar area. It was very inviting visually. There are a lot of tvs all around you. Sat down and the bartender Stephanie was really cool very friendly. She was very helpful with the menu. Me and my friend had drinks there about $10-14 for a drink there depends on what u get. I had to hold back on the drinks. Lol. We ordered the General tso, and also the roasted chicken wings. $10 for about 7 wings little pricey but they were packed with amazing flavor. The General Tso sauce tasted better then the General Tso at a Chinese delivery they also sprinkled sesame seeds and scallions on top of the General Tso wings. The roasted wings were just as good in its own way I ordered the wings with hot sauce on the side I didn't even need that. The roasted wings came with some sautéed onions and blue cheese I'm not a fan of blue cheese but I loved the onions I ate them with the chicken and it was a really good bite. So good would definitely come back for the wings We also ordered the margarita pizza and the mushroom truffle pizza. The pizza is very thin and air crust. Let's start off with the margarita pizza. It was a decent pizza the sauce was on the bitter side I make my own sauce and like it more balanced it's just a preference of mine. The mozzarella was really good. Wasn't my favorite pie but it was good. The mushroom truffle pizza was right up my alley. When it came out you smelt the aroma of white truffle oil. I tell you truffle oil has a special place in my heart. This pie if u are a truffle person will make you so happy. Good experience here no real complaints for me I would come back for happy hour 5-8pm Monday-Friday to save a few bucks. read more

Decent food at this place. The bread is A+ just the way I like. Just the right amount of crust and fluffy inside. The rigatoni bolognese was well done. It was very meaty, not runny, and generously cheesed. What would have made it better for my taste would be less tomato paste flavor and a touch more garlic. Also was curious if lamb would taste better than beef. Otherwise I was satisfied and would consider coming back to try other dishes. read more
