Delicious

From 5/28, better late than never

Good pizza, no complaints and will have again for sure. Picked this up after work for $15

Very average pizza. Tomato slice but very bland

Great taste and nice crunchy crust. These slices traveled a bit before I got to them, so an in-person visit is a must. Expecting an upgrade.

Way over cooked looked and tasted burnt

Smell alert- killer, really good Spoiler alert- it stinks Ratio- overly cheesy, particularly for tomato pie Execution- baking process is adequate, taste absolutely doesn’t do it. Sorry gang, no pedigree here Community alert- there has to be profound bias with these reviews. Just because you like tomato pie, or thin pie, doesn’t mean all tomato pie and thin pie good. This is a stone cold hype machine. Sorry gang, this is nonsense. Cheese-really fresh. However, with a very neutral one cheese mozzarella taste, it’s not enough. Delicious, but irrelevant. Sauce- no sweet and no spice. Adds nothing. Fail bomb Dough- thin, tasteless and a non- factor. Intentionally took a bite with no sauce and cheese multiple times. Either tasted like nothing or it tasted like burned charcoal. Absolutely brutal Overall- yes the review is harsh on individual components. It’s average tomato pie. It’s not actually bad at all. The problem is, it’s far from good R. Strauss said, “Profound success in art is very difficult.” Not travel worthy. You wanna try it, whatever.

Opened in February of 2022, seemingly as a response to Lillo’s Tomato Pies not too far down the highway in Hainesport, NJ. This has more of a strip mall, commercial, wannabe franchise tomato pie feel. Aesthetically, this is an absolutely gorgeous pizza; a super sharp-looking gussied up tomato pie with rich red & green colors and a beautifully blackened crust, immediately raising my expectations upon first glance. Tremendously thin, the dough is fantastically firm & terrifically tasty with a sensationally smokey charred undercarriage. The pie looks & feels coal-fired, with a remarkably crispy texture & super crunchy heavily charred crust that borders on burnt. Greasier than expected, the cheese is slightly subpar, with excess oil dripping from the butterfat in the significantly salty generic shredded mozzarella blend. Not terrible but a creamier fresh mozz would go a long way on a pizza like this. In typical tomato pie fashion, the sauce is smattered atop the cheese. Zesty, zingy, zippy, tastefully tangy, flavorfully fresh & sensationally sweet, the sauce sings with plenty of personality & pizzazz, despite being a smidge too savory from the substantially salty grease infiltrating the tomato taste. The fresh basil adds color, class & garden flavor, elevating this pie well above average pizza. Overall, the taste & texture are very solid, combining to make a quality pizza pie. This joint can hold its own among the top tomato pies in NJ and ranks as one of the better pizzas in all of South Jersey. They face some stiff competition from Lillo’s Tomato Pies right down the road; but this is also travel-worthy pizza, very good in its own right.

Great pie! Crispy and tasty.

I eat at DeLorezo’s once a month. If that’s a 9.3 this is definitely a 9.1. Very close on the scale to each other. Excellent tomato pie!

Sauce was really good, crispy crust. Family owned, will definitely go out of my way for this

Good looking pie. Thin but no crisp. I stopped in late, probably the last pie of the day. A bit doughy for the thickness. Folks were great and good flavor.

Very good

No flop and a little greasy. I was hoping for more but overall pretty middle of the road pie.

Prez must’ve gotten the wrong pizza

Solid pie, idk what you were thinking pres.

Review 361. Prez ya got this one wrong sorry. Your rating was spot on on the plain…wasn’t that good a bit floppy but did have the great crisp crust, but the slice not so crisp. The Tomato slice was phenomenal. I would eat this every week. Tremendous crust crisp and the whole slice was crisp. The sauce was very good w some small chunk a tomato nice job Mateos. I am only scoring this on the tomato as it deserves the credit here. 🍕

This pizza is amazing! I have been here 3 times and it is very consistent! The pizza reminds me of John's of bleeker pizza in New York. The owner is so friendly and you can tell he puts a lot of passion into his pizzas! I drive out of my way to get this pizza whenever I am in the area.
