27 Best Pizza Restaurants near Surf City

“Had a large Xtra cheese pizza. I'll give another half star for 41/2 stars. We ate in and I think they wanted to satisfy us too quickly. Pizza was very good, another minute in the oven and 5 stars for food. Service, good and friendly and atmosphere is typical. Give it a try!“

“This pizza place is a true hidden gem. We hav made this our go to place for pizza when here. We have repeatedly gotten the Grandma and Grandpa pizzas. These are very large square pizzas that we have cut into 16 slices (yes I said 16 slices!) they are absolutely delicious. They are thicker crusts but not heavy and doughy. The crust actually has a crispy chew to it. The tomato sauce is oh so wonderful...not too tart, not too sweet, just right!Our only dilemma is that there are so many other flavors of other pizzas on the menu that because we live these two types, we haven't tried any of the other pizzas. We will, I promise! Can't believe it has taken me so long to review. Thank you BLVD Pizza for being right here in Surf City!“

“Ordered online on Friday night as we were heading to LBI for the weekend. It was ready when we got there a half hour later. We ordered two small pizzas (they only have small and large), garlic knots and mozzarella sticks. Everything was good! I love garlic knots and rarely have them. These were great!“

“Having grown up in Brooklyn I appreciated Neil and his great Neapolitan pizza-making. Eddie and the whole crew are a credit to Neil's legacy. All varieties and styles of pizza are A+ here. And they don't rat you out if you buy extra slices to eat on the way home. They even make a ❤-shaped pizza year round, if asked. All Manahawkin owes Anthony's a delicious, big thanks!“

“Detroit style pizza is hard to find in New Jersey. Try this place! The dough is light and airy even though it's thick. The cheese cooked on the outside is delicious. Only open 2 days a week currently and need to call ahead for ordering but it's worth it. Great quality and unique! We tried each of the current types offered : cheese, pepperoni, and burrata. Everyone had a different favorite but all were great!“

“We got speakeasy pizza twice on our vacation and we're very satisfied each time. Being from NJ, I've missed the pizza. I know shore pizza isn't quite the same as regular Jersey pizza, but this was pretty good! The fries are also good too--nice and crispy, so they survive the drive back to your beach house okay.“

“Once again Isola did not disappoint! The food, service and ambiance were exceptional! If you have not tried the stuffed olives for an appetizer, they are a MUST! We also shared the fig pizza which was done to perfection! For dinner, my one cousin and I had the Spaghettini a la Arrabbiata ( a new item on the men) and was DELICIOUS! The rest of my family had the Branzino and short ribs which were out of this world! From entering the restaurant, my family and I were greeted enthusiastically ( and with a big smile!) by Bella at the front desk, we were seated promptly and our server Maureen, continued that warm and enthusiastic hospitality once we were seated and that same level of hospitality continued throughout our time dining. This is by far my favorite restaurant on the island! Thank you so much for another fabulous dining experience with exceptional food and service!! We will be back soon!“

“First time to Black Eyed Susan's and it really was such a delight. The vibe inside was very cozy and inviting, they had a wood fire going in the fireplace, the lights were perfectly dimmed. We were greeted warmly, our coats checked. My drink, the "you had me at aloe," was the prefect blend of fruity and fresh - and the passion fruit pearls atop the drink were so fun - a little burst of flavor! My husband couldn't decide on a wine, and they kindly let him have a small taste of one before he committed - in the end he went with a lovely Sangiovese Red. We left feeling FULL. The prices here are not cheap, but the serving size you get for the price is a good value. We took home portions of our entrees, and the only apps we had were the sour dough bread and olives - of which we also took some home. Typically I don't venture this far north on the island, but for the tasty food and bevies I would make the trip again.“

“Racaniello’s has become our go-to for most Friday nights at home. Their pizza is delicious! We’ve had many different kinds and enjoyed all of them. Their subs are delicious too. We recently used them to cater a birthday party at home and everyone enjoyed the food. Had some guests ask for the restaurants info. Always great service and great food! Definitely recommend.“

“I’m so glad I found this place! The best pizza in Barnegat. The pizza is very delicious and filling, and there are so many different options! The staff are so friendly and they show you how your order looks before handing it off to you, as they want to make sure you are satisfied with your order. Although the restaurant is small and there’s limited seating for dining in, the atmosphere is really nice. Always enjoy ordering from Ebenezer!“

“Oh my God! My sister ordered delivery for my birthday and it was the BEST chicken francese, omg so delicious. Delivered hot, fresh, friendly and fast. amazing salad, amazing blue cheese dressing PIZZA IS FABULOUS!!! Calzone delicious everything cooked to perfection! This place is ON POINT.“

“We got takeout from Bay Village yesterday and it was very good. We got one cheese and one pepperoni pizza. It was slightly dried out but it could've been because we had to drive it back to the beach house about 10 minutes away. The cheese mixture and sauce were a great combination. The service was fast and efficient and all of the employees were friendly!“

“I really like the pizza at this place. I often order the plain cheese pie. Their specialty pizzas are good too and they have beer battered onion rings. The mozzarella sticks are good too they have the crispy ones.Parking: They have a few spots up front so you can run in quick“

“It's our first time at Harvey Cedars (in February!) and we arrived famished. A quick google search revealed that Ray's was open and serving. We only had an hour to eat, but luckily it was just 2 minutes down the Boulevard. Not only was the pizza served hot and fresh within minutes of our order --- with some of the freshest, crispiest, lightest, airy delicious crust I've ever tasted! -- but the friendly owner/server gave us an extra slice on the house! It was the most amazing chicken bacon ranch pizza I've ever had. We are Ray Sunset pizza fans for life!“

“The food is EXCELLENT. The service is Excellent. The Ambiance is Great. We've eaten here twice. The chef, Chris, is a really good dude and is very talented. The Pizza is great and I've eaten them all (DeLorenzos, Sallys, DeLuccias, Grimaldi's).. We had Chicken Francaise Pizza there last time and it is incredible. The eggplant is Outstanding. The soups have always been terrific. We are retiring down to this area and It is very comforting to know, that I will still be able to get great Italian food in my new neighborhood. Thank You!“

“I must say Naples is the best pizzeria in town Not only is the pizza the perfect balance of cheese and sauce , the sauce is not sweet yet savory unlike many other pizza sauces. Also they address me by my name every time I walk in. They never forget me!! Very friendly and warm atmosphere!! I highly suggest. They also have a very warm and welcoming dining area in the back as well. The price is not as cheap for a pie , but then again what is these days. You get what you pay for. Which is a very good meal!! The entrees are big and delicious as you get many options on sides as well. Enjoy !!Dietary restrictions: They are extremely accommodating to any dietary restrictions or preferences just let them know ahead of time!Parking: Parking is located in the wawa parking lot along with Danny's Bayshore bagels.Kid-friendliness: AbsolutelyWheelchair accessibility: Yes!“

“I live in Lacey. Worked at a pizzeria in Point Pleasant where they had excellent pizza. Stopped ordering pizza because every place seemed like they had blah pizza. Tried Manzanos at my son’s request last night. I’m SOLD!!!!! Best pizza I think I ever had! Sauce was delicious, very cheesy, and not too greasy. Just loved it!!! Highly recommend trying this place.“

“I recently got a cheesesteak from Slice of Heaven. This cheesesteak was absolutely amazing. I don't know who made it but I would consider giving them a raise. I ate half for dinner and then half for lunch and the quality both times was amazing. Thank you Slice of Heaven. I will be coming back to get another cheesesteak very soon.“

“We had a family event catered by Vinnie's. The staff were extremely helpful and patient when we ordered the food. The delivery was on time and the driver very pleasant. Everyone was delighted with the food. We had people from out of state and out of the country. We will certainly be using Vinnie’s again for our events. Thank you!“

“I usually get takeout. Dinners pizza and antipasto. My food is always great. I had the seafood in a butter and wine sauce most recently. It’s hard not to over cook the shrimp in a dish like this . My shrimp and all the rest of the seafood was perfect. My friend had the seafood marinara. It was sweet with just the right amount of garlic.“

“Made a reservation for a birthday, party of ten. They had us all set up in a big room with a server ready to go as soon as I got there. Wine glasses, ice buckets c water, etc. Emily was a gem! Service was perfect. We all ordered different items. Everyone loved their food. I had the shrimp francais. Best I ever had, and I'm picky because I cook a lot. Food was nice and hot . After dinner our plates were cleared and Emily wrapped all our leftovers for us. Highly recommend Pietros for your next dinner choice .“

“Some people love fast food, I love pizza! This place has been around forever and I always heard such great things. When my daughter was a senior during the pandemic they had an adopt a senior program and the senior I adopted wanted a Ray's pizza because he loved it. Finally I got a chance to try it out. I'm not going to lie it's a bit of a dive but clean.The people are extremely pleasant and it seemed to be a family run business.Straight out of the oven our delicious thin crusted pizza came out and we started to drool just a little. Compared to some thin crust pizza places I would consider this pizza to be medium in crust, they used real cheese because the pizza actually had oil coming off.A bunch of pizza places have got cheap using cheap mozzarella or adding provolone,this place used good cheese! The first slice I had was delicious but after that the second the sauce was a little sweet. I think I devoured my first slice. Overall this pizza place deserves a solid 4!!I would definitely go again.“

“I had take out at Nicks pizza yesterday and everything was excellent! Marco the owner is friendly and very accommodating. Chicken franchise had so much flavor and delicious. Chicken parm and spaghetti was so good too! And the zeppolis!!! Sooo good! Thank you for the delicious food and great service. Definitely recommend“

“Cute little place with an assortment of food choices. The waitress Samantha was attentive and pleasant?. She recommended a taco dish that was delicious and filling. Also ordered some wings which were quite tasty as well. Clam chowder soup was had by my mom who enjoyed every last bite!“

“I've only been in the Manahawkin location to pick up some slices (bomb af), but I have been over a friends house and had delivery from them. They hand wrote a message in the speech bubble on the front of the box, referring to the conversation they had while my friend was ordering over the phone. I forget exactly what it said, but it was clever and endearing ?The couple times I've been in to pick up slices, the counter staff were very pleasant and accommodating!Parking: Depending on day of the week and time of day, parking can be iffy. Fridays and weekend evenings are obviously busier. Good for them!“
