    Meatballs
    Danielle J.

    Went for happy hour on a Friday as soon as it started and the place was empty. The drinks were our favorite part of the meal, no complaints on the old fashion! The meatballs were just okay, didn't wow us, the bread served on the side was burnt, not a good char. The wings were a decent size but lacked the flavor that was described on the menu, they were a little oily too. We did order a sausage personal pie as well, the sausage was good, just wished it was more evenly distributed, the crust was light and crispy.

    Godzilla rules

    On a business trip, I door-dashed a Godzilla pizza from this Dough location and added garlic to the pie. . .delivery brought it to my door in less than 10 minutes out of the oven, and that was the perfect delay. This meal was everything I want a pizza to be. . .flavorful, ingredients distributed all over the pizza, crust not too thick, and when they say Godzilla, they bring the fire. Wonderful experience and I look forward to visiting the location soon.

    Eggplant Parm Pizza

    Great selection- especially loved the ceasar Salad, the zucchini chips, and the eggplant pizza. Waitstaff was excellent. We sat outside in the patio- breezy night. Would definitely go again!

    We came Dough on a blazing hot Sunday for lunch. The entrance walls had some wonderful patriotic arts. They had tables available both indoor and outdoor, we decided to sit in the outdoor patio area. It looked very nice at start, but gradually the heat started to pick up. There was no fan or anything other than rare natural breeze. For indoor, the dining area was really nice, with mostly had high chair tables. The bar was huge. The menu had lots variety in brunch, small plates, greens, sandwiches, pizzas, pastas and seasonal entrees. The drinks menu had cocktails, mocktails and lots of other hard liquor options. We started the lunch with deviled eggs and zucchini crisps. Both were decent dishes. Zucchini crisp had lots of them with a tasty side of sauce. For entree, I got the hanger steak sandwich. The sandwich had good amount of steak, topped with onion and greens. But the steak pieces were huge that made it difficult to bite out of the sandwich. Having it in thinner slices or cubes would have been much better. The sourdough bread's crust also got super hard, was impossible me to bite around the corner. I had to tear off the edges of the bread. The grilled salmon was a big filet, really well cooked. But the lemon risotto was bland. My daughter got the kid's Mac and cheese that was excellent, whole plate was full of cheese. The mint condition and raspberry mule were solid mocktails to cool off the heatwave we were feeling. The service was decent overall. The dishes came out in short intervals. Our server was working hard, trying her best to keep up with multiple tables. We had to get her attention to request the utensils, takeout boxes and for the check. Hopefully she will get better as she gets more experience. By the time we done, the restaurant was fully packed, barely any space left in their parking lot.

    Nice western style food in Dough. Flowery, bar, relaxing vibe through out the restaurant. Indoor and outdoor seating available. It was a nice day so we chose outdoor. It had some cover. We had devil eggs, zucchini crisp, salmon, hanger steak sandwich and kids mac&cheese. Zucchini crisp is not bad. A little bit too thin for me. The sauce is spot on. Great flavor. Salmon itself is very good crispy skin. Tender and soft meat. The risotto needs some work. Not creamy enough. I also had a blueberry drink (mocktail). Refreshing. Great for the hot day. Service was good. She had many tables so was a little busy. But overall she did a great job getting our orders, provided what we need/ask. All staff were friendly. They had live music going on indoor. Also had a baby shower going on. I can see this is a very popular spot.

    Short Rib Blend Chuck Burger
    Athena M.

    Was looking for eggplant Parmesan and found it on Yelp so came here for that. Was pretty tasty. Red sauce was a little weak and I was looking for a more flavorful, bold tomato taste. The cutlets were good though and crispy. Plus the portion was insanely huge. Had for 3 meals. My husband tried the short rib chuck burger and said it was really good and housemade patty with quality meat. I stole some fries and those were hot and crispy too. Server was very friendly. Thank you!

    Met up with friends for some wood-fired pizza, and this place was perfect for it! The restaurant feels like stepping into a beautiful log cabin--cozy and intimate for date nights, yet spacious enough for larger groups. They also have a full bar, craft beer and offer much more than just pizza, including vegan options, a great selection of appetizers, salads, handcrafted pastas, plus fish and steak dishes. The menu is really well done. We decided to share a few pizzas since the brick oven was calling our name: Margherita - fresh mozzarella, tomato sauce, and basil Pesto Chicken - wood-fired chicken, fresh basil, mozzarella, Fontina, and basil pesto Smokey the Pig - smoked mozzarella, baked prosciutto, field mushrooms, fresh garlic, and EVOO For dessert, we shared the coconut cake. It's plant-based, made with coconut milk and brown sugar, and topped with coconut flakes. The portion was easily enough for four people and absolutely delicious--super fresh and flavorful. Our server, Tara, was wonderful--so sweet and attentive. She checked in often, kept our drinks filled, and made sure we enjoyed everything from the food to dessert. I'll definitely be back to try more dishes!

    Great woodfired pizza, happy hour wine prices are good. They have several pizzas that can accommodate vegans, along with seasonal specials. The restaurant has a very warm atmosphere and a beautifully decorated bar. A great place for brunch or meeting with friends if they all have different diets, especially vegan members of your party.

    Margarita & Pepperoni/Kalamata olives
    Ronald K.

    Ugh, what happened to this place!?! The new and huge location has ample parking and seating but, my has this place gone downhill. It certainly does not feel family run anymore. The entrance has a huge homage to the grand ole USA. I fought the urge to salute or place my hand over my heart. Not gonna lie, it's a bit bizarre but whatever. Service now is mediocre...staff rarely checks on the table and forgot about that second drink order. It ain't happening. The once grand zucchini chips are now bland and boring. Pizza is borderline horrible...unless you enjoy both burnt and undercooked pizza simultaneously...but I guess that does take some skill.

    THE GOOD ---------------- + Sensaaaaaationally delicious food ... and, more specifically, pizza!! ++++ Lacinato Kale and Roasted Squash Salad - Excellllent salad. Lots of kale, but was light and the combination of all of the ingredients were perfect. Red wine vinaigrette was perfect too, not too heavy. ++++ Shroom Pie, Pesto Chicken Pie - Absolutely phenomenal!!!! Some of the best pizza I've had in NJ! So much flavor in both pies. The pies were personal in size, 12", and perfect for 1 person. ++++ Kids Plain Pie - This 12" pie might have been the greatest kids pizza I've everrrrrr, eveerrrrrr had. There was so much flavor in the cheese and pie. It was tangy and the tomato sauce's flavor definitely hit me in allllll of the right spots! ++++ Kids Mac and Cheese - Verrrry, verrrry good as well. Cheese was gooey and it was topped with bread crumbs. It was served in a skillet and didn't come out piping hot, which we appreciated since it was for the kids. + Supppper spacious restaurant with LOTS of tables, including a bar with counter seats. + Waitress was personally friendly and quick. + Large private parking lot. THE NOT SO GOOD ---------------------------- - Sat for 15 minutes before we were tended to by someone while other tables that sat down after us were already getting their orders taken. Only downside to our experience here. MIXED THOUGHTS --------------------------- = Nada. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Make reservations on their website! The restaurant was extremely busy on the February Saturday evening that we went. We were here from 5:30-7:00 PM and it was bustling with many groups/families. CONCLUSION --------------------

    Kids plain (close-up)
    Dolly C.

    - Huge standalone restaurant with its own large private parking lot--absolutely necessary for the busy Saturday dinner crowd; definitely make a reservation, or you may be waiting a while for a table - The interior dining room is dimly lit and spacious, with a mix of standard tables, high-tops, and bar seating; tables are decently spaced, so it feels lively but not cramped - Service started off slow--we were seated promptly for our 5:30p reservation, but weren't greeted by our server until about 15 minutes later; meanwhile, a table seated after us had already placed their order before we even received water; once acknowledged, service improved, though it would have been nice to receive an apology for the initial delay - The food was exceptional--the pizzas (Shroom, Pesto Chicken, and Kids Plain) arrived hot and fresh, loaded with toppings, and featured light, chewy crusts; the Kids Mac & Cheese was ultra-creamy, cheesy, and comforting; the Lacinato Kale & Roasted Squash salad was light, fresh, and perfectly dressed--though it could have used a bit more butternut squash

    Dough is closeby and cozy! We came and sat at the bar to enjoy a few drinks and split some apps. We ended up ordering from the specials menu since it's seasonal and they sounded yummy! We got the Butternut Squash Crostini along with Mussels that are made in a local beer -- you get the option of an IPA or a lager. The bartender was very friendly and helpful as we had questions about the menu.

    Fire-Roasted Chicken Wings
    Steph C.

    Limited parking. Nice restaurant. Outside dining. Service was okay. Wings were delicious. Cheese board was not worth the price. We ordered the margarita, pesto, and sausage pizza. Not a fan of the sausage pizza. Pesto pizza was the best out of the three.

    When you've been around greatness, you know it when you taste it…read more Tony D's Pizza in Caldwell is championship-level--no question. This is some of the best pizza in Essex County, period. From the crust to the sauce, everything is dialed in like a Super Bowl game plan. And trust me... they handled a "Giant" appetite with ease If you're in Jersey and you're serious about your pizza--this is the spot. #BigBlueApproved #EssexCountyEats

    ***3 1/2 stars***…read more Maybe it lost something in transit or I didn't get the right pie, but I wasn't blown away by this place. I've had Tony D's on my list for a while, knowing it had a solid reputation amongst the North Jersey Italians (and what better demo to have it from?). Yesterday was a perfect opportunity to order/grab some pizza and bring it over to my top-tier chum in nearby Montclair for lunch. I didn't do a ton of recon so maybe there was a more obvious/modern method to ordering, but from what I could tell, this place was pretty old school and I just picked up the phone and called over - honestly can't remember the last time I did that, but it brought a nice whiff of nostalgia for me after years of ordering on apps. Didn't realize that Tony D's is literally right around the corner from my BFF Cloverleaf, so the location is pretty convenient if you're in the area. The parking in Caldwell can be pretty annoying, and even though I'm sure I could have rolled the dice I paid a little less than a dollar to park up the street further into a residential neighborhood. Given that Tony D's is exclusively delivery/pickup joint, I think they should pay for the spots right in front as a courtesy to their customers coming in and out; maybe they do and I missed it but if not... Anyway. The guy behind the counter was VERY nice/friendly, and even though I was a few minutes early based on the estimated ETA off my phone call, the pizza literally had just come out of the oven and was ready to rock. From that vantage point, top-notch service. The specific pie that seemed to be their go-to was the Drunken Grandma, which is usually one of my favorites (vodka sauce on pizza should be much more prevalent in my opinion) but I wasn't crazy about the chunks of tomato on it. In hindsight, would have been easy to pick off or even to request that they not be included to begin with, so that would be my recommendation based on this experience. I opted for a square plain pie, especially since I knew that a few young pups would likely be sampling the wares; seemed like an overall safe bet. Optics-wise, I thought it looked very good, and I don't regret going square here. The crust for me was probably the best part, and I made sure to strategically grab all of the corner pieces once we started eating. Nice crisp to it for sure. The overall taste of the pie just wasn't my thing. I wasn't crazy about the sauce (maybe another argument for the vodka sauce, right?) and the cheese was just okay. Tasted to me more like generic by the slice pizza, which isn't my preference. My top-tier chum liked it more than I did, so definitely could just be an issue with palate preference here but this might have suffered from inflated expectations. I'd give them another shot if a similar circumstance presented itself, but I'd go with the pie it's known for - there's a reason the Drunken Grandma is front and center in almost every review. Learn from me.

    My best friend hosted her baby shower at Wood Stack a few weeks ago. I really enjoyed my meal and…read morethe service was great too. They started us off with some appetiziers for the table which included avocado toast, rice balls, and salad. For my main course, I ordered the Pappardelle Bolognese which was a huge portion. The pasta was fresh and the meat sauce was super flavorful. The inside is decorated very nice and has a sort of rustic theme. The area where we were sat was the perfect size for an intimate shower. I plan to come back and visit for lunch or dinner in the near future. Avocado Toast: 5/5 Rice Balls: 5/5 Salad: 5/5 Pappardelle Bolognese: 5/5

    1st time back to Wood Stack in many 5+ years and gotta say - still not impressed…read more From being seating in the back room when half of the main room was empty to the slow service to all the chairs being uneven - it was just meh. The highlight was the salumeria special - good selection of meats and cheeses. We tried the grandma, bader sting and the prosciutto & fig pies. The grandma was the best. The bader sting is sopressata and hot honey - couldn't taste the honey and sopressata had no flavor. But the biggest let down was the prosciutto & fig - the figs were green? My first thought they were not ripe - the point of this pie is to have savory and sweet - it had no sweet. As I said I hadn't been there in more than 5 years and the menu hasn't changed from what I can remember. Also, if you increase prices, maybe make sure you make sure to remove the old menus first.

    Had dinner here a few weeks ago and WOW Montclair really is not giving up its title for best food…read morecity anytime soon. We're still slowly working our way through local spots, and Brick + Dough was highly recommended to us. We started with garlic knots, bread, and fries, and honestly... 10/10 across the board.

The service was nice, especially because even though we were the only table sitting outside, they were consistently coming out to make sure we were doing OK and had everything we needed. We ordered some garlic knots, which were good, it just seemed a little bit pricey to charge for the marinara sauce separately, which was not really outstanding nor something special, so I would recommend you skip it. We also ordered the chicken vodka Parm pie which was very good. The chicken was very crispy and the pizza was still delicious the next day when we had the leftovers. One of her friends is allergic to gluten, so it was very nice that they were able to accommodate for her. I do wanna point out that we have been to many places that offer gluten-free options and this is the first one I've been to that does charge you extra to make a gluten-free. In terms of price, it is very similar to the other places in Montclair but they do provide very good service and the ambience both outside and inside is very nice.
