I just had to share my absolutely phenomenal dining experience at Mannino's Italian Restaurant in…read moreHightstown, NJ -- because WOW. This place isn't just good... it's on a completely different level. With a massive menu that truly has something for everyone, Mannino's delivers incredible food, next-level service, and unbeatable value. Honestly? It's a solid 11 on a 1- 10 scale! Let's talk service. It was nothing short of spectacular. Co-owners Vito and Jose run the dining room with such precision, warmth, and genuine care that you feel like a VIP the entire time. Their attention to detail is unreal, and watching them keep everything running flawlessly in a bustling, fast-paced environment is seriously impressive. And the food... my goodness, the food! These are classic Italian recipes passed down through generations, but what truly makes Mannino's shine is the quality of their ingredients. You can taste it in every bite -- rich flavors, perfect textures, and this unmistakable touch of culinary magic. It's the kind of food that makes you stop mid-bite and say, "This is something special." If you haven't been to Mannino's yet, go. Don't walk -- run. It's a dining experience you absolutely do not want to miss. Harry Robinson CEO Technology Solutions Partners

After another $30 wasted I confirmed that I was right and should just stop trying and stick with my beloved neapolitan style pizza. Scottos pizza in East Windsor, NJ got me excited because when I walked in, I saw the pizza guy pulling my precooked dough and sauce out of the oven then putting the toppings on and, as per the comments on my previous post, this is how it's supposed to be. The counter girl was sweet and said they needed 7 more minutes so I paid, thanked her, and waited. Upon the pull out I got even more excited ( #thatswhatshesaid ), drove to my hotel, did my mandatory pizza box opening IG boomerang, then dove in. At first bite my heart sank, flashing back to my last pizza experience that I posted, and felt the gooey, wet, uncooked dough. I pushed through and got towards the crust which was crunchy and cooked through. The toppings were warmed, after being cooked for the 7 minutes I was told to wait but not juicy and perfectly cooked. All in all, this was a major fail and just like your final abusive and toxic partner, I'm giving up on this type of pizza. My colleague warned me about this place but I stupidly ignored. The service staff was very sweet but that's the only pleasant thing I dealt with at this spot. Just like my last post, I took extensive photos of different angles of the rawness to hope and stop the opinions of telling me I'm wrong. Sorry, not sorry, don't waste your money.

My family and I used to get pizza here plenty of times in the past when we still lived in New…read moreJersey. The pizza here was good pretty much every time we got pizza from here. As was the service because it was always made on time and ambiance. Since its a small place its more of a takeout than actual restaurant when it comes to getting food. The pizza always had good flavor and we could tell was made fresh which would explain why the crust and everything was good. There were never any major complaints outside of a few times where maybe the pizza could've been better. There were few times where the cheese fell of because either there was too much liquid or too much sauce on the pizza. And because of that it would make the pizza very oily or soggy which tended to ruin the texture of the crust. In the end otherwise, it was still a good pizza place and it's worth going to whenever you want good pizza in East Windsor.

11/9/25 - Out running errands and saw a pizzeria I had not noticed before so…read more.. I pulled in the lot and read the reviews. The place is called Sal's Pizza and it's located on Rte 130 in East Winsor, NJ. People were very kind in the reviews---good sign. They had just turned on the lights moments before I stepped in and were beginning to stock the pizza case. I didn't feel like waiting so I ordered two plain slices and hoped for the best. I'll start with the good: The sauce is tangy and wonderful. It is seasoned OK too but it could use just a touch more to give it that "punch" that I seek. The cheese is premium mozzarella and has that stringy mozzarella cheese pull that makes for an A-1 pie. The crust (outer and underneath) is super flavorful. I would probably classify this as thin crust. The bad: There is ZERO CRISPINESS to the outer crust or the undercarriage. None. And as you would imagine, the slices wilt like wet noodles. When you try to pick it up, everything slides off. Even if you fold it, you get the same limp results. I was super diligent trying to eat and keep the toppings off my shirt. That didnt work either. T-shirt ruined. I wanted to dine-in but after I ordered, I had to run to my car to grab my wallet. When I returned within 30 seconds, (yes, really 30 seconds) they had already boxed my slices without ever asking me if it was to stay or go. I just assumed they didn't want me dining in for whatever reason so I paid and left. If they ever solve the crust issue, they'd have something special here. But until then, they are just....

In a space occupied by exactly four diners (including us), we were promptly asked if we had a reservation. I almost apologized for not booking six weeks in advance for this exclusive, high-demand experience. Then came our server, who seemed to believe we were all running a construction site together. Every sentence was punctuated with "boss," to the point where I started wondering if I was about to get assigned a shift schedule. I half-expected him to hand me a clipboard and ask if I approved the latest inventory order. Despite the unexpected managerial responsibilities, the food was solid, and once the initial awkwardness faded, the service landed somewhere between "acceptable" and "I guess I'll allow it." Overall, it was a good meal with a side of unintentional comedy. Would I return? Absolutely. But next time, I'll wear a hard hat and call ahead--just in case.
