★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1This classic pizzeria, has an old world charm. We ordered quite a bit and the staff was incredibly helpful with our choices. Tasty, and flavorful. My second slice had bacon and potatoes like whaaat? The pizza boxes on the wall added to the appeal.
April 23 · MookieI just discovered this truly hidden gem, Nova's Pizzeria. What can I say about this pizzeria? located at a stone throw away from the iconic pizza scene of New York City. It battles stiff competition but Nova's Pizzeria not only excels but overachieves in everything. Nova truly delivers and shows the world why New Jersey is the true pizza captial of the world. Nova uses top quality, fresh ingredients. Their cheese game is on point, melted to perfection. the crust is cooked to a golden, airy crisp but The sauce is what sets Nova's apart from the competition. It's made with love, just like Nana used to make. None of that fake, processed stuff here! Nova's Pizzeria. I'm proud to say you have made a customer for life out of me. 10/10
February 14 · Jean ValdesOne of the best pizza parlors in North Jersey! (in my humble opinion). The inside is so spacious and well adorned. The pizza itself is incredible. It maintains its shape and doesn't flop and the dough and crust are super crunchy. The pizza itself is also not super oily like other pizzerias I've had. Would highly recommend paying a visit!
September 22 · Afnan AqdusThis is not representative of NJ style pizza.I had the lunch special that came with 2 plain slices and a can of soda.I very rarely throw food out but found this pizza utterly terrible in every fashion.I've had frozen pizza taste better.This was so doughy, undercooked and lack of taste I couldn't get through the first slice.Even the crust was soft & mushy.The best part of this lunch special was the can of soda.Come on guys, this is Jersey DO BETTER!Lastly, for God's sake why do you still allow people working behind the counter wearing masks.If the employee wasn't feeling well and wearing a mask for " customers protection " then maybe the employee shouldn't be handling food that customers consume.
August 28 · Darren KraeuterPizza has changed in the past several weeks. We have had pizza once a week for at least ten years an within the last month it has changed, new owners or new pizza chef? Change is not for the better. Get back to what you were doing before or you will lose customers.
