Grandma pizza with pesto = $22.30 (online order) Probably the best pizza in Toms River, our family has been regularly getting pizzas over the years here! Workers super friendly, pizza always taste the same every time, which means they have consistency of items being made. Crust is nice and thin, and the sauce they put is excellent, it has a slight sweet taste, perfect with pesto! read more

Italy's Best III - Regular Grandma Pizza, this one has pesto! Fantastic pizza, nice and thin, slight sweetness from tomatoes, the sides have a nice crust - Pizza Near Me - Toms River, New Jersey

It's been two years since being in NJ and I alway stop here for pizza. Come to find out that they sold out. The first thing that came to mind is will the pizza be just as good, yes it was and much better. By the menu size it's more then a pizza parlor. Now the only thing I can really speak about is the pizza and it was really good! When I first walked in I was greeted and was shown a menu (lol come to find out it was the owners son) I told him what I was looking for and he said to look at the Combo Pizza so I ended up getting that. If you never have been here take it from me, TRY THEM! I can't until I come back home to have more of the good stuff! read more

Italy's Best III - Cheese Pizza with garlic knot crust - Pizza Near Me - Toms River, New Jersey

I'm warning you all - their food is terrible. I ordered a chicken vodka parm sandwich. The vodka sauce wasn't even vodka sauce. It was thick and orange and tasted like yellow American cheese??? It did not taste like vodka sauce at all. It wasn't the right consistency and the flavor was completely wrong. I was so disappointed. I wish I could give this place zero stars. $10. I ordered garlic knots. They are not really garlic knots. They are some kind of buns with NO garlic flavor. No oil. Just a light dusting of cheese. $5. I ordered a garden salad with chicken. The grilled chicken was cold and stringy/rubbery texture. I was hard to chew I almost choked. The salad had a few olives, two or three small pieces of cucumber, three peppers, and a slice of a carrot. I'd say they were very cheap because it was really just lettuce for $10. The tiramisu was awful. It tasted very acidic. The guy told me it's not homemade but I gave it a chance for $4. Literally did not taste like espresso, it was like thin sponge cake not lady fingers on the bottom. The mascarpone was acidic and too stiff. Not light and creamy and fluffy like I wanted. read more

I wanted to pick up a pizza for dinner so I started seeing what was available in the area. Everyone seemed to have a Grandma Pizza on the menu so I figured I would give one a try. The pictures for Italy's best looked so good with the pesto drizzle that they won me over. When I called it in, she asked if I wanted the pesto drizzle or the garlic. Now she had me second guessing myself because the pesto looked so good. I asked if I could do the garlic (which was her preference) and get some pesto on the side. This is the right move! The pesto was great but very strong so it was nice to have the option to add it as needed. It smelled so good I almost snagged a slice out of the box on the way home. I'm glad I waited because it tasted excellent as well. We had leftovers for days and I kept snagging a slice whenever I could because it was so good. Whether you're a regular or just visiting, check out Italy's Best and make sure to get the grandma pie. read more

Amazing food, great owners-we're weekly repeats. Always personable, reasonable prices and the pizza is incredible.

Quick to answer the phone for ordering takeout. Staff is pleasant and professional. Ordering the Chicken Francese was disappointing. The ownership changed and the recipe for this dish DID NOT make it. This used to be our favorite dish. I would tell the previous owner that their Chicken Francese was the best I have ever had. I travel all over the world 3 - 4 times a month. I have tried this dish hundreds of times. Believe me when I say it WAS the best tasting with a large portion of soft tender breaded chicken cooked moist and with just the correct amount of seasoning & lemon flavor. Oh just thinking about the dish makes my mouth water. Unfortunately the current dish as so average and over cooked, smaller portions and lacking real lemon flavor. We have tried the dish at least 4 times with the same result. We just go to a competitor when we want Chicken Francese. Too bad! read more

We just ordered a chicken, Bacon Ranch pizza and wow is sooooo good and packed with real chicken and Bacon and the right amount of Ranch....I never leave any comments anywhere but Italys best 3 is the best also try out their delicious Jalapeño poppers sooo delicious! Thank you guys from Juan M. read more

pizza was oily and greasy! called owner and he was nasty. Don't order from here! Place doesn't deserve any stars!

My family and I absolutely love this place !! The crispy chicken parm is to die for along with their penne vodka ! I wish they had a location in brick ! I only get to get these guys when I visit my mom in Toms River ! Can't wait until we can go and eat indoors again ! read more

Italy's Best III - The best chicken parm and penne vodka I've have around here ! - Pizza Near Me - Toms River, New Jersey

I ate here with a friend after reading some good reviews of the place, and we were both really pleased with the food. The plain cheese pie was delicious, and the slices we ordered were quite large. We also got sandwiches. I think it's difficult to find a really tasty eggplant parm, but Italy's Best III makes a very good one. My friend ordered the chicken Francaise sandwich and loved it! The food is fresh tasting and delicious. The staff here is really friendly and helpful. We're looking forward to working our way through the menu. read more

We stopped here on the way home from Seaside Heights. The foods was decent at good prices. Really liked the staff! They are on top of their game! We ordered our food and it was our within 15 mins. That's with them starting to get busy at that point. I highly recommend the Brooklyn Sicilian Pizza! The plain was ok and the cheese steak was ok. Really not the way I like it but it was ok. I would recommend stopping while in town! read more

I ordered a sub and in the extra column I wanted extra lettuce well what they did was just added lettuce and removed tomatoes onions. Who does that. In my opinion delivery orders are given subpar food leftover food refried food. We're paying full price too. read more

Everytime I have been here the food was extremely good you can't go wrong with Italy's best!

Pizza had a lot of cheese which had no taste, little bit of sauce and a crust that broke and couldn't hold the cheese. Note that this was reheated pizza that we ordered by the slice. Not good. The shrimp Parm sub though was good. It had an ample amount of shrimp and was tasty. Bad stomach issue 2 hours later. read more

Exceptional you definitely delivered with freshness presentation and taste great Quality in deed a very satisfied customer at 18 W, Plus your mozzarella sticks best in town. read more

Italy's Best III - Mozzarella sticks with their homemade marinara - Pizza Near Me - Toms River, New Jersey

Our family enjoys the food, we have never had a problem and they are very good at getting our order correct. We don't eat in, we always order for delivery. I say all of that to qualify my next complaint as valid and coming from sincerity. Italy's Best has now joined quite a few establishments charging their loyal customers a service fee for using credit cards. I believe this trend started during COVID and here we are, three years later. These fees are utterly UNACCEPTABLE. Why anyone willingly puts up with this blows my mind. Using credit cards are for the ease of payment of YOUR CUSTOMERS, it is what they call "the cost of doing business." If the credit card companies are charging you more, than that's your business' ISSUE, NOT MINE. In this economy with prices rising daily through the roof and customers already paying more for regular take-out, this fee is unconscionable. So I have to cruise by the ATM in order to not be charged a fee? I don't think so. No hard feelings, but I will not order from you anymore or anyone else who steals money from me. I have my hands FULL WITH THE GOVERNMENT ROBBING ME EVERY DAY. Maybe nobody else cares, but they should. read more

Amazing food and Rem was great! He was so friendly and accommodating. Will definitely be ordering from here again!

Best Pizza in Ocean County! Wings are off the hook and the garlic knots are amazing. I've never had a bad meal from them and delivery is always speedy. read more

I've ordered from this location about 300 times and I'm thrilled with their menu and service. They have excellent food and deliver quickly. Thank you for feeding my family ! read more

I recently moved to Toms River I have tried many places in the area and completely disappointed. I would go up north and buy dough where I used to live and make pizza at home. I had unexpected company and didn't want to cook. A friend recommended Italy's Best and well it's been 2 months haven't order from anywhere else! They are nice in the phone Delivery is usually quick and if here is a special they either recommend it or automatically give you that price We ordered 3 pies not knowing there is a special and we're given the special price. I was so happy And let me tell you the chicken parm hero... I have to order 3 because the whole family wants leftover for snack the next day. I highly recommend it! read more

This isn't food.... I would never serve this to ANY customer. Your money is the only thing that matters to this business not your satisfaction. First time ordering here and I recommend that if you're looking for food try elsewhere . I wouldn't even feed this to my dog. Soggy fries, dry cheesesteak, and what kind of cheese isn't melted to the fries ?!? So gross read more

While the regular pizza was ok, the Margarita pizza was HORRIBLE! I can't believe this place got so many 5 stars! Margarita pizza was so soggy I thought they spilled a glass of water on it. Not crispy or flavorful in the least in fact, it was so soggy I almost vomited! Pizza would not even lose water.content after cooking again at home. Very disappointed in this place. I am new to town and depend on yelp.and the reviews to find good places to order. I will have to question the reviews from now on. Throwing out my menu, will look for another pizzeria. read more

We've been ordering from here for years and food is always excellent. Delivery is always on time and food is always hot (or cold if it's supposed to be). Highly recommend. read more

This place is great! Their pizza is fantastic and I love all of the different pizzas with toppings. Their buffalo chicken pizza and chicken bacon ranch pizzas are absolutely amazing. Their wings are also really good. I've also had many different types of hoagies, wraps and dinners and they never disappoint. Owner and staff are always extremely friendly and are always accommodating. Definitely recommend! read more

they burn their pizzas to often. they have the ability to make good lasagna, but twice in a row it came with no cheese!!! none what so ever. I throw it away. I complained but apparently there was no one in charge there so they did nothing about it!!! I was a very regular customer they should have given me a instant refund. the last time I went there they burnt my pizza again!!! and got my order wrong. I have a couple other pizza places I'm going to try. they are the most expensive also. so if you're going to charge top dollar you should have the very best food. best off to stay away from this place. read more

Definitely the best pizza around! I order from here at least once every two weeks and everything is always great! Delivery and pick up is never a hassle and everyone you talk to there is very nice! They have a very big menu and everything from appetizers to pizza to pasta is always great! Everyone has to try this place! read more

DELICIOUS!! Just moved to the area a few weeks ago and were staying in for the new year. Went on a limb and ordered two absolutely delicious chicken dinners. Chicken Marsala and chicken saltimbocca were delivered earlier then expected, hot, tender, and very flavorful! Will definitely be ordering again! read more

I am not the type of customer to ever complain. I have worked in the restaurant industry myself and understand how busy it can get. My family has also ordered from this place for at least 17 years. Lately the food has been unpleasant as well as the staff who is managing the phones on a Friday night .Several times our order has been messed up due to the restaurants mistake, and we have never been offered anything, just a quick response "oh we are sorry, but you will have to wait another 45 minutes for your order". We have experienced several unpleasant food orders and as a loyal customer we would have hope to have been treated better. Guess its time to move on!!!!!!!! read more

Love the penne vodka here!!! The sauce is so good my mom and I always say we can drink it! lol

I moved to Toms River a year ago and have been trying pizza places since then. This is the first time the pizza was delicious. It is definitely worth getting. There sauce is good and the dough was perfect. Also tried the wings and they were good. I will always get our pizza from there from now on. read more

Excellent pizza!!!! Moved to Toms River 4 months ago from the Jersey shore, and I have yet to find a decent pizza place around here! Italy's best is amazing! Reminds me of all the great pizza from down at the shore. They also delivered to me at 10pm on a Sunday. Extremely impressed and will definitely be ordering from them from now on! read more
