    Chicken Vodka.
    Emma G.

    ***3 1/2 stars*** This was a total impulse decision, and not one I regret. The Millennial Chum and I stopped here on our way back from the Jersey Shore Outlets, on a tight schedule and in need of a quick bite. I thought from the road this looked like an interesting spot, and the outdoor seating area was large and pleasant. That was enough, and we quickly pulled in. We were both amused by the interior, which is a bit kitschy - from outside you can see some old school Pizza Hut lamps over the table, and there's at least one or two pop culture displays throughout the restaurant. Very cool. This is a blue-collar by the slice-type establishment, which is usually not my jam (I'm pretty snobby and ridiculous about my pizza) but I liked the look of most of what I saw. The specialty pizzas caught my eye and upon confirming that I was looking at a chicken vodka pie, I quickly ordered two slices, which ended up being one slice too many. I always forgot how hardcore an edgy slice is. It was pretty good; interestingly the star for me by far was the crust which, maybe not coincidentally, gave off Pizza Hut in a good way - it was thick and extra crispy, on the verge of a deep dish. The vodka sauce was fine; I really didn't notice it one way or another, and I'm not sure if that's a selling point or not. I didn't like the look of the regular tomato sauce on other pizzas (they looked too thick/chunky for my preference), which is one of the reasons I gravitated to the vodka. The chicken was plentiful, which is probably the one aspect you need to ensure with a slice like this. Like a lot of pizza in this genre, it was reheated and you could tell. There were a few pockets of grease and dried up sauce areas but honestly pretty minimal and easy to navigate around or remove entirely. I rarely discuss my dining companion's food (they can write their own review), but the Millennial Chum wanted it mentioned that her chicken parm panini also came with eggplant, and was very good. Noted. The service was fine. Understandably my slices were ready to rock within a minute or two but the Millennial Chum's meal was made to order or close to it, which took roughly 10 minutes or so. We of course took advantage of the nice day with the aforementioned outdoor seating, and it was nice of the woman behind the counter to bring out her food to the table. Ultimately unnecessary but a nice touch. This wasn't bad, especially given that we just gave it a random shot based on superficial optics. Am I going out of my way to come back? Eh. Tough to say when you have so many downtown Red Bank area a stone's throw away but for this kind of situation, it's pretty perfect.

    From the outside, those square pizzas in the window looked amazing. Inside, the retro movie posters, popcorn buckets, and Blockbuster nostalgia set the mood and had my hopes sky-high. Unfortunately, the food and service didn't live up to the atmosphere. Things started off rocky when our kid's meal came out first, only for the staff to realize they had completely forgotten about the rest of our order. When our food finally arrived, it felt rushed--and it showed. The garlic knots seemed reheated, undercooked in the middle, overloaded with basil, and lacking that punch of garlic and parm they needed. The pizza had potential: the cheese was quality, the dough was nice and thin, but both were underbaked. No crisp, , no texture, no finish--just doughy. The sauce was fine, but leaned too sweet for my taste. What made it more frustrating was the lack of attention. The restaurant wasn't even busy... just one other table and a few takeout orders - yet service still felt scattered, and the food came out like an afterthought. Would I give them another shot? Honestly, yes. Those square pizzas in the window still have my curiosity, and I'd like to see this place step up its game. For now though, it's more of a "great vibes, disappointing execution" kind of spot.

    Honestly this place rocks. Every single thing I've ever ordered has been delicious. The pizza has a perfect crispy crust, the cheese and sauce ratio is perfection. Also they have so many pizza varieties, each are soooo good! It's also so cute inside. Highly recommend.

    Gianni's in RB Is not related to same in Atl Highlands. Location: just outside the hub of center of RB. off Rte #35. Parking: Ample for cars & bikes Dining: inside & al fresco, weather permitting. Staff: friendly, they will serve you if you eat in, as there are no servers present. Clientele: workers in the immediate area. Don't know what the weekends bring in. VISUAL: 1 lg TV Cleanliness: excellent minus. Looking around I see people eating salads. They look great ($10+/-) When's the last time you had Cream soda? They deliver too. A full scale Napoletana Pizzeria.

    The re-dressed restaurant for the Mooby's Pop-Up experience.

    First time here, I've driven passed it countless times without realizing that it was a small pizza…read morerestaurant tucked in the corner of a very small strip mall. Today my daughter wanted pizza. She's been away at school and said that good pizza is nonexistent in Florida, unless it's a chain like Dominos. So we searched and we found this small and clean place with good reviews and our very nice wait staff named Veronica. We had a quick lunch which consisted of a large margarita pie with vodka sauce. We also ordered triangle shaped fried mozzarella. The breading on the mozzarella as well as the sauce was very good. My daughter loved the pizza but I can't say I was a big fan of the vodka sauce. It was my first time having it. I prefer the margarita with tomato sauce and I think that's what I will order the next time that I visit again. I did love that the pie was thin crust, but it arrived a bit burnt. I'll have to request that my pie not arrive burnt. I will be returning to try other items.

The Red Bank location is decorated nicely, very intimate and is a BYOB. The menu is the same. Katelyn provided outstanding service. The food is very good. Red Sauce Italian and they do it well. The baked clams are my favorite. The eggplant rollatini is very good. The Spedini was less successful as they prepared it like Mozzarella en Carozza with the Anchovy caper sauce. The dish should be prepared as a loaf as opposed to a sandwich style. I will definitely add Via Sposito into my Italian rotation as the prices are reasonable, the service is excellent and the food is good. I will try their pizza next. Parking on the street in the off season is easy, during the summer parking can be very difficult. There is a garage within a 5 minute walk.

We started with a 'Watermelon Mint Cooler' and 'Frozen Strawberry Margarita' - both were mocktails. They were both delicious and refreshing. My husband got the meatballs for his appetizer and I got the Caprese salad. He loved the appetizer and I loved mine. You cannot go wrong with Caprese salad in my opinion. For our entrees, he got the 'Bistecca alla Pizzaiola" which was a steak with tomato, garlic and red wine with potatoes. It was really good. The steak was very tender. I got the 'Ravioli Limoncello' which was Ravioli in a Lemon cream sauce. I am not a huge lemon fan but this was great.
