I've been passing by this pizzeria for years but never got to stop in. We finally ordered a half cheese half onions pie and it was delicious! Loved the thin slices...will be ordering again! read more

I am a former biweekly customer until a month ago they had the audacity to deliver me an already made pizza (for slices) and added onions. It was disgusting and disappointing. I called to complain and now my number is blocked! Stat away from this mess! read more

A very solid change on our Sunday night pizza night after baseball games. Very small establishment on a side street, so have the GPS ready to go. On Yelp it says cash only, but they do take cards as well. Just a major FYI for people like me that never have cash on hand. Everything was ready to go when I got there. Super efficient and everyone was very nice. Excellent service. We got the Bolognese Pie and if course the Buffalo Chicken for the kid. Plus I had to try the Meatball parm with Vodka sauce and some zeppoles for later on. The Bolognese pie was out of this world. The meat sauce was excellent and the crust wasn't too thick or doughy. When I saw it, I was skeptical but after the first bite, all doubt disappeared. The Buffalo Chicken looked amazing but I didn't have a piece. My son said it was on the top of his list. The meatball parm with Vodka sauce was average. I wouldn't get it again but it was decent. Ending with the Zeppoles was the perfect finish. The pizzas are the real deal and that's what I suggest everyone orders if you stop by. read more

I literally ate this pizza everyday in elementary school. It's changed a bit as an adult but still delicious and the calzone my husband ordered was big enough for a family of 4 and oozing with delicious ricotta. read more

Definitely just average for me. We ordered 3 large pies for a big family dinner. One pepperoni and anchovy, one veggie and one plain. The plain and pepperoni were ok. Very very greasy and yet incredibly thin crusted. I was shocked at how much grease there was on such a thin pie. Cheese was very average, tasty but not incredible. The pepperoni was my favorite since it gave it a little more flavor. I did end up dabbing some grease off the slices after a while. I tried a bite of the veggie pie but it was pretty much inedible for me. The veggies were practically raw. It was mostly broccoli stems and they were very hard and undercooked. If you're getting veggie I would skip the broccoli. Service was friendly. This location is convenient but I probably wouldn't order again. read more

Great pizza! Not greasy and huge slices. Great variety of sandwiches. Very friendly people behind the counter. It must be the best pizzeria in town! read more

I don't know what to say. Big Nick's has one of my favorite slices in town. Consistent, big, and delicious. Their calzone is also awesome. You won't go wrong here. Go and ENJOY!!! read more

Big Nick's Pizzeria - a slice of pizza - Pizza Near Me - Kearny, New Jersey

Went there and ordered 2 Italian style hotdogs. They were excellent. The staff is great providing excellent service. And the ambiance is nice read more

I don't know about the pizza but the chicken dinho & chicken vodka sandwich are pretty solid

Tried their cheese pie and it just wasn't good. The dough wasn't crispy and overall it just lacked flavor. When you look at the pizza you would think it'll taste amazing because you can see the seasoning, but unfortunately, it doesn't taste like much. I also ordered their garlic bread and that was worse than the pizza. read more

In the amateur poetic mood.... Don't look for signs or you might pass by, look inside the window for the big pizza guy. Slices are long, slices were big, $2.25 per slice, $1.25 can of soda, into my pocket I had to dig. Good flavor, tasty dough, could've been crispier though. The short and the long is at Big Nicks you won't go wrong. read more

Pizza is just a finger lick. Really delicious. Just a great place. I like being here. It's all good.

Always a go-to place to order from if you're in the Harrison, Kearny area, I order from here at least once a week. Delivery is always fast, accurate, and on-time. I definitely recommend any of their salads (comes with olives, raw onions, tomatoes, red peppers), their sandwiches (chicken vodka, chicken pesto), wraps (Philly cheesesteak). Occasionally their phone line is busy from the number of orders they receive per day but just try again in 5-10 minutes. For how affordable the prices are and the food that you get, it's a no-brainer. read more

Can't believe all the amazing reviews. Tried the plain pie once and it was really not good at all. No flavor. Had to add my own seasonings to it. Maybe I hit a bad day? I don't know if it's worth trying again. read more

What can you say big Nicks is A staple if you grew up around Kearny. They make a great slice. My favorite is actually their cheesesteak! They have been around for years and know what they are doing. Always a great option when you're in need a great pie! read more

order a large cheese pie and got delivered in 10 mins. pizza is soggy and cold like they warm up a pie from the counter and delivery. orders should be made fresh, not warm up a pie. thumbs down. never calling Big nicks again. whole pie in the garbage read more

If I could zero Stars I would. I just called to place an order of a large pie and wings. After 2 minutes I called back to let them know that circumstances have changed and I won't be able to pickup the order I need to cancel it. No one answers the phone after 6 tries. When I finally try again 5 minutes later after I explained to the man who answer the phone that I need to cancel and why he proceeds to curse saying "shit I just put the pizza in the oven" I told him I'm not able to drive there now (they don't deliver to my address) and he proceeds to curse saying what the fuck. HORRIBLE customer service . I will never be ordering from this place as long as the service is like this. Not only that but after looking into the reviews further I do not want to chance horrible customer service AND horrible food. Please do better to treat customers with respect. Pray before you go to work and ask God to help you treat people reslectfull read more

The food is so good! Even though they don't take credit cards, it's worth it! Food is fresh and delicious, Pizza is excellent as well. I look forward to ordering every weekend! read more

I would say it's 3.5/5. I've been looking for a legit pizza spot since moving to NJ. I mean regular, old fashioned pizza not fusion,crazy ingredients pizza! This place is okay. - long slices instead of wide slices hmmm - the crust could have been a bit crisper. Reheated when I got home and the crust was not able to hold up the cheese and pepperoni -flavors were okay -enough pepperoni and sausage on the slices -counter guy not so friendly -cute and clean space -not greasy at all. Many points for that I would return because pizza by my house sucks! read more

Prompt delivery, tasty pie! Check them out one day for your next pizza one night soo

Just ordered a pizza sandwich with mushrooms and pepperoni i if they were 10 pieces of pepperoni thin like paper and maybe 20 mushrooms for $9.50? I'm almost open the bag in the store because it was so light Probably not coming back read more

The pizza here is AMAZINGLY GOOD. I order a large cheese pizza and it was just like heaven on my mouth.

We had the white pie with spinach and it was delicious!! It was delivered fast and hot!! Completely satisfied!! read more

We used to live close by and get pizza or pasta from Big Nick's all the time. The philly cheese steak pizza is very tasty.

Would be better if they accepted cash it's one of the reasons I don't go as often. I like there pepperoni pizza and the fact that it has old school feel. read more

If you want pizza-- REAL pizza, this is the best and only place to get it. Everywhere else in town does not serve New York Style Pizza like Big Nick's does and after eating here for years, I refuse to order pizza from anywhere else. The place looks like an other small town pizza joint and also serves a variety of other food besides pizza. Fountain soda and bottled drinks are available and there's a couple of tables inside. Also, Another reviewer posted that the pizza here was packed with flavor and I have to whole-heartily agree. You can't go wrong with a plain pie here, but if you decide to get fancy- try the thin crust pizza- it's way better than Pizzaland's and delicious enough to eat all by yourself. The only less than stellar point I'd like to mention is: Be careful with the toppings or before you know it you'll be paying $21 for a pizza. read more

Poor quality for what you pay, got burned crust and payed 10 for only two slices and a drink. Better places in town for less and better food. Would give half star if possible read more

Worst place to order from!!! Don't waist your time or money!!! I placed an order on the phone for the first time I explained that I wanted to order a grilled chicken caesar salad. The man over the phone asked me if I wanted oil & vinegar or Caesar dressing, I told him I wanted Caesar dressing & 3 plain slices. He told me it would take half an hr for delivery. Food comes I open it up & it's a grilled hot mess. I called them back told him I asked for a grilled chicken Caesar. He tells me we don't make that.... so why wouldn't you tell me that on the phone instead of telling me what dressing would I like. If you guys don't make that salad why would you have the dressing. The pizza tasted bland as well. Never again will I spend any money at this please. read more

Big Nick's has great pizza and their pasta dishes are on point. The portion sizes are big. Such a good spot to hit up when you want some comfort pasta! Not a biggie but they only take cash. read more

When we have company in town, this is a frequent stop. Full disclosure. I've never tried anything but their specialty pizzas (and a few appetizers). They only take cash. And if you eat in on a busy night, they might shoot you a free dessert as you're going out the door. They're just good like that. The specialty pizzas are well worth it. The Chicken Cordon Bleu and the Cheesestake pizza are some of the best dishes reincarnated as a pizza. I found the taco pizza a little strange, but my wife and brother loved it. A little on the pricey side if you're used to Little Caesars (15-20 bucks) but worth it, for the size of the pizza, the quality of the ingredients, and the amazing taste. You might drive right past it if you aren't careful--it is a small shop by Gauchos and the Fire Department. There's an ATM just up the street at Schuyler Bank (that talks to you and scares your pants off at 9 at night) if you forget cash. But if you hang around Kearny enough, I guarantee you'll see their delivery car everywhere. Check it out! read more

Great small pizza shop with slices and a full menu of pies and sandwiches. Super friendly folks that work here. Note that it's cash only. Look for the old-timey pizza guy statue in the front, it's an easy spot to miss. read more

Big Nick's Pizzeria - A couple of slices. They're huge and delicious. - Pizza Near Me - Kearny, New Jersey

Good service and good staff. Owner very nice. My second order pizza and I think I found my place thank you this is jack

So I've been ordering from this place for YEARS. I'm talking AT LEAST once a week. And today I asked for a salad with buffalo chicken... Not a very hard order right? Nah I didn't think so either. But the owner must've thought it was damn near impossible... As a waitress, I know we can accommodate ANYONE, and this loser decided he just could NOT put buffalo chicken in my salad. To the owner, your salads are probably trash anyway and you can take your "fancy" lettuce a wipe your dirty ass with it read more

I eat lots of pizza from many different places. Big Nick's is so-so on my list. Average taste, greasy cheese, basic crust. The gimmicky larger slice is about 18" long, but half the width of a standard slice. Who are they fooling anyway? The guy behind the counter wasn't exactly friendly. The place was empty during the lunch hour. No bathroom. Dining area seemed clean. Wouldn't go back. There are better options. read more

Big Nick's Pizzeria - Pizza Near Me - Kearny, New Jersey

Ordered for pick up from this, and was not disappointed ! I live in the ironbound in Newark and there are NO viable pizza spots in the area :( as a bergen County north jersey gal I really was in need of some old school jersey pizza. Got a small plain pie and took a shot at the chicken Murphy specialty pie ( chicken, potatoes, peppers, mushrooms in a wine sauce with cheeseeeee) you can always judge a pizza spot from the plain slice and YES they do it right! The specialty Pie was LOADED no skimp on the toppings! The owner (I assume) was super nice even hooked me up with soda from driving out from Newark So Sweet of him! Oooh and he also gave me a side of Marinara which is also a tell on a pizza joints food it was so good will definitely be ordering something tomatoesque next time ! read more

I have to say, Big Nicks, by far has the best Pizza in town! Their thin crust is crispy and the dough soft. Their sauce is real good and the cheese and pepperoni is always fresh. Five stars from me. read more

I've tried everything here and it's pretty good! Besides the pizza, the sandwiches are great and the pasta dishes too!

Big nicks is right down the street from my boyfriends house. We love the penne vodka pasta and the garlic bread is good. Portion is also enough for two which is pretty great. Saves some money. Delivery is quick too but that's probably cause we're so close to the pizzeria. Definitely recommend read more

Authentic Italian Pizza! The Deliver too which is a plus! Took one star out because they only accept cash.
