Pizza

New Jersey’s pizza scene is a hotly debated, fiercely loved, and undeniably delicious subject! Far from being overshadowed by its neighbor, the Garden State boasts a unique and diverse range of pizzerias that draw crowds and critical acclaim. From classic thin-crust tomato pies that have been perfected over generations to innovative, modern creations, there’s a slice for every preference.

And when it comes to pizza, few voices are as impactful as Dave Portnoy of Barstool Sports. “El Presidente” has made numerous pilgrimages across New Jersey, famously applying his “One Bite, Everybody Knows the Rules” mantra to countless pies. His candid, no-holds-barred reviews, often focusing on the crucial “undercarriage” and “flop,” have elevated many local establishments to national fame. With some of his highest scores ever awarded to New Jersey pizzerias like DeLucia’s Brick Oven Pizza in Raritan (a stunning 9.4!) and De Lorenzo’s Tomato Pies in Robbinsville, it’s clear that New Jersey pizza isn’t just good – it’s world-class, even by Portnoy’s exacting standards. Come discover why New Jersey is a true pizza paradise!
