I thought a chicken cutlet was supposed to be white inside, until I ordered and mine was yellow and gray. What a shame, while they also don't tell you about the $2+ delivery charge when you're not even 1.5 miles away. Been ordering for years, the food is only getting worse. read more

I have been ordering from Wize Guys for the longest time. They are always friendly and willing to help when i call for delivery. Gluten Free pizza is enough to feed 2 persons, despite being a personal pie. coworkers confirmed that also regular pies are delish. Fries are crispy and well seasoned, their Spinach and Egg Soup is so good you wanna cry. Highly recommended spot read more

Stopped here after doing groceries at stop and shop and there was a guy out front smoking a cigarette. (Short Hispanic man) Only reason I noticed him was because I hate cigarettes and the door was open so I wondered why he would be standing right by the entrance where the smell would go right inside of the restaurant. After walking in the guy immediately tosses his cigarette puts his phone away, followed me inside and asked what I would like.......... lol. I told him and expected him to go wash his hands but nope. To my surprise he grabbed my slice with his dirty hands and was about to toss it in the oven until I told him he did not wash his hands. Surely he was confused. I repeated my self and told him that I saw him smoking a cigarette and he did not wash his hands and I did not want that pizza. It was very disgusting. Call me annoying but I could literally see the dirt on his nails lol. The other tall gentlemen who was right behind prepping pizza stopped what he was doing to help me and gave me a different slice while the guy walked off to "wash his hands" . But of course the original slice was NOT tossed. Yes I ate the pizza lol but unfortunately I will not be going back. Aside from that man's bad habits, the pizza was ok. Too thin for my liking but a lot of people like thin pizza. I gave a star for the pizza and a star for the nice gentleman who took over my order after he saw what the other man had done. Feel bad leaving this review because I'm sure they are nice people but that man needs to do better. After using the bathroom is not the only time you need to wash your hands. read more

I hate to write bad reviews especially for small businesses but I believe this one is necessary since we had to throw away the food and it was completed waste of money that we worked hard for. So i ordered chicken noodle soup and a big pizza( half veggies, half chicken barbecue). When i got the soup it was spilled everywhere so i called them again and they were so nice about it and they send me a new one immediately which made me want to give them a second star instead of one! The veggies pizza was ok but the chicken on both the pizza and the soup was disgusting! It smelled and tastes bad. I am not sure how old this chicken was. What made me angry that i ordered the soup for my sick husband! He could not eat anything and he only wanted a soup but unfortunately we had to throw it away. Such a waste of money and my husband ended up not eating anything. read more

I love chicken wings but I was disappointed- It was over cooked ! I ordered buffalo chicken wings but received BBQ - or it may be that the buffalo sauce is too sweet. I ate it anyways because I was HUNGRY!!! My colleague ordered a garden salad with grilled chicken - we shared it - and the romaine lettuce was fresh but we agreed the chicken could use more of a golden color with more flavor. Sadly, we definitely do not appreciate that my colleague almost choked on the bone left from the chicken. No - no! Perhaps I'll play it safe and only order pasta fagioli next time, every time. read more

If you want a hot, freshly made slice at 11:30am,this is NOT the place for you. Obviously too lazy to get there early enough to make fresh pizza each day, they cook all their showcase pies the night before, throw them in the fridge, (I hope), and sell them the next morning. When you walk into a pizzeria 15 minutes after opening, and all the cheese on every pie in congealed, it's a tell tale sign you are about to get day-old pie. Seriously Wize Guys put a little effort into your morning and sell a fresh slice. I would have given it 1 star, but the woman at the register was very pleasant, so she gets the second star. This happened 3x by the way so ZERO chance it was an anomaly. I won't be back. read more

Trigger warning: flew too close to the sun. Since the days of my youth I've lived by two statements that have been found to be largely true and, at times, gospel: never trust a fart; and pizza is pizza. The latter statement implying that all pizza is good pizza. For most of my 26 years on earth, this statement has been proven to be true. I've gifted my gustatory cells with quality pies ranging from some of NYC's finest to the California Pizza Kitchen. Which brings us to my journey into Wize Guys on a cool night in early March. I was hungry after a long day of work and thought to myself, "Pizza is pizza," as I pulled into the shopping center. I ventured into the quaint 'straunt and ordered three pepperoni slices, and in mere minutes the slices of greasy pepperoni pizza were in a box and on its way to my home just down the road. Heart racing with anticipation, I rushed into my domicile and thrust my jacket and other bag off of my body as I prepared for what seemed destined to be a glorious first time with Wize Guys. I opened the box and lifted the triangular slab of dough, sauce and cheese towards my mouth ever so slowly. And then the bite. Oh, how could one forget that first bite. In an instant my eyes welled up and I was driven to what can best be described as a depressive weeping session. If "pizza is pizza" was gospel before, that first bite was logic and reason swooping in to crash down the walls of my pizza truths. The pie tastes as if an ambitious alcoholic was eating a Tombstone pizza and got the grand idea to make his or her own pizza out of wet cardboard and a glue stick. It wasn't delivery. It wasn't DiGiorno. It was the sad reality of a pizza lover blindly trusting an age old statement, flying too close to the pizza sun and being crushed back down to earth. I'd eat here again if the sun was set to explode in 10 minutes. That's probably it. read more

The cheese slice and the sicilian cheese slice are legit. I was a bit skeptical at first. This is the 3rd pizzeria to occupy this address, and the previous 2 didn't really serve the thin crust pizza that's common for Bergen County. The layout was similar to when it used to be Joji's, but the pizza is exponentially better. I can't even quantify how much better this pizza is. The crunch of the slice, the chewiness of the cheese and the mildness of the sauce is nearly a perfect experience. Prices are decent too. A cheese slice and a small fountain soda (Pepsi) will run you $3.50, add a sicilian slice and you're over $6. There's plenty of seating and lots of friendly service and parking is a breeze. The fact they serve Pepsi products is a bummer though. I'm a Coke man... read more

Stopped by here with my wife for lunch before going food shopping at Stop N Shop next door. Their pizza is the worst we have tried in this area. Pizza is reheated with little sause and cheese. The crust is dry and falls apart like crackers. The pizza has little to no flavor. If you want good pizza, try Brooklyn Coal Fired Pizza in Hackensack. read more

The pizza was decent for the area. I got a whit slice and a buffalo chicken slice. The dough of the pizza was not cooked enough for me and really did not have much flavor. I did enjoy the buffalo chicken pizza that had ranch on top of it. The white pizza was ok and little too greasy for me. I would probably go back to try some of the other pizza they offer like the salad and vegetable slice that both looked good. But overall not eh best slice around. Also, for some reason they don't have regular bottled water, only flavored which I found strange. read more

This place has decent thin crust pizza. Scicilian is decent as well. Used to come here a lot when I was younger. I don't know if it's just me but the pizza seemed to be better a few years back. I used to work near here so I would frequent it on my break. Nice place for a quick slice. Items other than pizza are a bit more sketchy. Have a friend who lives in the area who would order from here quite a bit. Whenever she got non pizza items they would not look to appetizing. So I have been kind of scared off by non pizza menu items. I've never seen anybody go full Willy Loman over an entree in my entire life. Good for pizza but that's about it. read more

Randomly stopped by since family was hungry. 7.99 pizza Wednesday special and do not regret coming here. Pizza and garlic knots were crispy outside and soft inside. Cheese was good quality, sauce was a tad less flavorful than I'm used to but definitely not a deal breaker. Would come back even if no Wednesday special. Staff were awesome and attentive which was a surprise given the out of the corner feel. Inside was spacious to sit and flat screen televisions. If it was more upscale atmosphere, I'd give it five stars, definitely would still come back though! read more

Ordered a Medium pie. Toppings were like $2.00 extra each. What I got in toppings was a joke. Sausage was not what I thought was going to be, like a nice link taken out of the casing, and cooked on the pie. Black olives were these very thin slices of canned gummy California canned olives (like maybe 5 slices) and peperoni was like another 5 slices. The dough was not too convincing either. Thank God I had a can of sliced button mushrooms which I paid $.99 for at Shoprite. You want a real homemade pie, order it from Bazzarelli in Moonachie. read more

I ordered the Drunken Peps Detroit Style Pizza, which had "mozzarella cheese, two types of pepperoni (original sliced/cup & char), homemade vodka sauce, and freshly grated pecorino romano cheese." First off, the pie is huge --- completely worth the $26.96 I paid for it. Secondly, the photos don't do it justice --- it is steaming hot upon pick-up, and that very generous layer of sauce on the top was *chef's kiss*. Although the crust may appear very dark i the photos, it was actually perfect --- and provided that nice *crunch* and *crackle* that those crunchy cheesy edges provide. If you're in the area and looking for some pizza -variety- then I totally recommend this place. Pizza Knight for the win!

Grumpy's Sourdough Pizza Co. 522 Saddle River Rd…read more Saddle Brook, NJ 07663 Hot Honey Heaven Grumpy's Triple Threat Multiple people have reached out to me and suggested I explore this locally owned pizzeria located in the heart of Saddle Brook. As I entered the parlor, it is a hole in the wall with minimal seating and no AC unit. Regardless that it wasn't fancy, I still had a very gut instinct the quality of their pies was going to be on the money. When I arrived a weekday afternoon to place my order, the cashier informed me there will be a 40 minute wait. For the fact that the wait is this long indicates there are in demand and their pizza is top quality. I also saw framed plaques along their table counter showing they received positive media recognition from The Record, northjersey.com, and bestofnj.com. Hot Honey Heaven: I was initially skeptical about the appearance of this pie because it looks kind of messy. However, I took a single bite and was immediately hooked. This pie was topped with pepperoni, crispy chicken, and ricotta cheese. Mike's Hot Honey was generously poured over the top. It has a combination of sweet and spiciness. I never anticipated honey would enhance the flavor of the pie; I wish I requested an extra cup! Grumpy's Triple Threat: Named after the restaurant, this pie is prepared with pesto, grandma sauce, and pink tomato sauce. The sprinkled parmigiano reggiano added a nice touch. I especially liked the artistic appearance. The three colors were visually appealing, especially with the swirls of pesto. All pies are prepared with their signature sourdough pizza crust. Each slice had a perfect undercarriage and a firm crunch. Customers have the option to bake the pies may light, medium, or well-done. I chose medium because a majority of the customer base prefers this style. As a bonus, Grumpy's offer complimentary crust upgrades. I opted to add garlic butter brush; the outer crust edge was literally brushed with hot, garlic-infused butter. While it is common to throw away the top portion of the pizza, the upgrade is definitely an incentive to eat the crust. San Marzano tomatoes are the primary ingredient for the sauce. It's not overly sweet and has a light tang. This pizzeria is geared for take out, but there are plenty of benches only minutes away at Saddle River County Park. You can enjoy your pie while admiring the beautiful scenery of the park. The parking lot has limited spaces, but you can easily find a spot on the street. Grumpy's may be a hole in the wall, but the pizza was outstanding. I'm really exuberant that I had a pristine experience exploring sourdough crust for the first time!

The customer service was outstanding from start to finish, and I have absolutely no complaints. This was a fantastic experience, and I will definitely be ordering again. They've earned a repeat customer!

Most of the staff was very friendly and welcoming, especially the manager. We arrived about two hours before closing and asked if we could sit at the bar to watch the next soccer match after the hostess told us there were no available tables. What was confusing was that the same tables that were empty when we arrived remained empty the entire time and were still vacant when we left as the restaurant closed. Overall, the food and most of the staff were enjoyable, but the experience at the front of the house could definitely be improved.

I had been wanting to try the Oxtail pizza for a while when I used to pass the Edgewater location…read moreso I traveled to Englewood. I ordered the oxtail pizza and it was delicious!!! The crust is thin with a sesame sprinkled crust and it was so good that I even ate every single bite of it, which is unusual for me. The oxtail was so flavorful and rich with the cheeses (mozzerella, Parmesan and goat cheese), meat, hot honey and spinach. The ladies asked if I wanted cilantro on top, which was the perfect add of even more flavor. They were so sweet and welcoming. Parking in downtown Englewood can be tough but I took the side street behind the row of stores and found the back entrance to Wahizza. I'm not sure if that's allowed but it made the pizza pick up a very quick and convenient experience. I plan on eating in next time bc the inside was so cute and looked very comfortable. I am definitely coming back.

I'm a shameless fan of One Bite Pizza, so when I saw Dave Portnoy take a bite of a slice from Evoli…read moreand let out a surprised, "Huh...good!" I already knew I'd be coming in for a visit. We got a margherita pie with added mushrooms and sausages. The handmade pie took a little bit, but it was certainly a conversation-stopper when it arrived. It was hot, loaded with toppings, and had a healthy drizzle of olive oil. Eating it was even better. The cornmeal-dusted crust had pretty decent structural integrity (considering the toppings it had to hold up), and while the sauce was a little tangier than I would've liked, the proportions of crust to sauce to cheese was spot on. Evoli is a family-owned business and they've been in their current Hackensack location for about five years now. All the people here are sweet as pie, and I especially loved seeing the owner's little girl dancing around and showing off her Power Ranger toy to anyone who showed interest. There's talk about selling their business and changing locations, but so long as the old guard is here, I absolutely recommend checking them out.

I was really looking forward to a turkey burger. But they were out on the day i went. So I had to…read morepivot to another item. With so many options on the menu, I was getting hungry real quick. I ended up getting the chicken parm with vodka sauce sandwich. I thought I was getting a side of fries but it turned out to be an entire order. So I definitely had sticker shock once they told me the cost. But the place looked cool with mob vibes, a big screen TV playing Latin hits and a picture gallery filled with past accomplishments. Finally the food came. The sandwich size was pretty big but the grilled chicken was burnt. It overpowered any sauce taste. So it totally lost all its hype. I was hoping the other side was different but it was not. The fries were good and the portion size was generous too. I'm not sure if I want to return to give the other sandwiches a shot or the pizzas since they looked good.

Ordered a special in which we got a mushroom pizza, mozzarella sticks, buffalo wings and a 2 liter soda. They were out of the sodas so we got a few cans of soda instead. We ordered to go and ate at home, though they have plenty of tables inside. Overall the food was good and definitely enjoyed the smorgasbord of food we just got. Pizza had fresh mushrooms which I appreciated and lots of cheese. I could use more sauce though as we like our pizzas saucy. Mozz and chicken wings were good, but we should have eaten them right away as you expect those to cool down quickly. I'd want to try a burger next time, so I'll be back.

"Wize guys" indeed. This place has horrible customer service and horrible pizza. This was my second time ordering pizza here. The first time was a mediocre pizza, though they got part of the order wrong. The second time was a complete nightmare. Our pizza arrived one hour later. It was cold. It was not what we ordered. We called the owner (Russ, who refused to give out his last name) and asked for our money back or a new pizza because the pizza was not hot. The "owner" refused to listen to our complaint. He insisted that the pizza was not cold. How would he know unless he can fly here and touch it? After we asked for our money back he hung up. We called back and tried again to reason with him. He again refused to let us talk. He also used a condescending and misogynistic tone; it is unacceptable to speak to women (or men) like that in today's day and age. He ranted and raved about what an amazing owner he is, what an amazing business he has, how amazing his pizza is, it was surreal. And we could not get one word in! When we tried to tell him the problem, he cut us off and said he would report us to the police for harassment. Then he hung up again. The whole experience was unbelievable in that the business was the one threatening to report us, the customer, for complaining. Refuses to be held accountable. "Wize guys" for sure, ironic name because he lives up to it. read more

Everything was yummy, and a lot of food for the price. The food showed up barely warm though, so perhaps pick-up is a better idea.
