Great pizza! I gave this place another chance after years of not coming here we decided to try it out again. Place was clean and they had a good selection of pizza. We had the chicken and ranch pie and veggie pie. The both came out fresh from the oven! Their staff was super friendly also! I will def be coming back to this pizzeria. They have a good selection of food that I would like to try. I would def recommend this place to anyone and pricing is pretty decent! read more

Just moved to the area and really wanted to love this place but sadly not the case. There has been multiple issues and today was just the last straw for me. On two occasions my order was incorrect but I didn't bother because the food is good. Although my main issue is the unprofessionalism amongst the ladies at the register. Today, there was obviously a line of annoyed customers waiting to be helped and yet they are chatting about bs. Taking their own sweet time to help customers. Let me not mention one of the ladies who I've seen profusely cough WITH a mask below her nose. Why wear a mask if you aren't going to use it correctly. We are in a pandemic mam and all that coughing around food is disgusting. Three stars because the food is good. Staff however sucks, get it together. On to the next! read more

This place never disappoints. Order for delivery, go eat there, eat one of the best burgers you'll ever have. Everything is good here. Hard to find a place like this. Little secret, try the bang bang shrimp. Full line of sandwiches and pizzas. Soup is good, pastas are good, the wraps are good, big, two portions big, in most cases for the sandwiches. No complaints. read more

I'm actually surprised at how this meal turned out with all the great reviews. I ordered a classic Philly cheese steak sandwhich with fries and a tomato soup through uber eats. The fries were over done (burnt taste) and the sandwhich was dry and flavorless. Very little cheese in it too. The tomato soup made the meal bearable. Overall, it was meh. Sticking with my local spot (Chipot Lee) for great cheesesteak sandwhiches from now on. Edit- had to update my review and put it down to a one star cuz Ive finished the meal and it was just plain sad. Wanted it to be good. ---- Hi John, it was order #91496 . I ordered 3/29. Thanks so much read more

Updated comment and added a star - owner responded immediately, we had a great conversation, he asked a lot of questions and also asked for feedback on how to improve the pick up of online orders. THANKS JOHN!! The food here is great but there is a persistent problem with online orders. If I order in advance, pay in advance, and are given an estimated pick up time, I expect to be able to walk in, pick up the food, and walk out within a few minutes. HOWEVER, when you arrive, you have to wait behind four or five other patrons who have NOT ordered in advance. GUYS PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PROVIDE A DESIGNATED RAPID PICK UP PLACE FOR PREPAID ONLINE ORDERS!! This persistent problem makes me think three times before I place an order and have often gone someplace else because of this. read more

I've ordered from this spot 4 times in the last 2 months and everytime I order it's 2 penne vodkas and a sausage or chicken roll the roll never makes it leaving someone hungry everytime. You call up and they give no solution even go as far blaming the drivers unbelieveable dispute enough times then the courier service bans you horrible they must be having fun behind the counter they just letting half the order go out the door and charging full price smh outta be ashamed of yourselves read more

Called asking if they made zeppoles, Young lady on the phone disregarded my question and informed me that they were closing in 20 minutes. I didn't want to order, just asking if they made it so I can order for next time. She again assured that they were closing. So i'm assuming they can't answer questions if they are closing soon??? Very rude. read more

My husband and I have ordered from this place about four times and we're always satisfied with the food and the portions. read more

I loveeeee this place. Ever since I came across it, I come her religiously for their jumbo wings! Thats it lol. I haven't tried much else from here, but I plan to. I did have a veggie slice once before, wasn't a huge fan; but I'm willing to try different slices in the future. The decor is really open and cool on the inside. It sits on the corner of the intersection but they have parking in the rear. It can be very crowded at times, but they have the option to call in and pick up as well. Always recommend when someone asks. read more

Ordered food for my coworkers and I (about 8 people). Picked up the food and upon opening the bag we realized one of my orders was missing. Called the restaurant back, lady at the front said you can come back and pick it up or you can wait an hour for our delivery driver to bring it to you. So, my coworker calls her back and asks them why he should be delivered/pick up a cold calzone and take more time out of his workday to fix their mistake. She then proceeds to tell him that it's OUR fault we didn't get it because we didn't check the THREE BAGS of food before we left the store (12pm on a Tuesday aka very busy at the front). There was no apology or even an offered remake of the food, she could care less. Every time I've spoken to the woman that works the phone she is nasty, short, and rude. EDIT!! Christine (the manager) was super nice offered us a very nice apology and covered our next order with them. read more

Whether we order for pickup or dine in the food is always piping hot and delicious! The service is friendly and pleasant and my daughter who is almost 5 loves coming here! She gets to sit at the high top table and color while enjoying a yummy slice of pizza at her favorite pizza shop! read more

No longer worth the wait... We've ordered from the Union location several times (for work) and always picked it up due to their long projected delivery window of an hour +. Even with calling ahead and getting an anticipated 40 minute pick up time, they consistently run 15 + minutes over. ( making it difficult when you have people on lunch schedules ) Today, we placed an order at 11:30, arrived & paid at noon & waited another 1/2 before the ENTIRE order was ready only to learn the two bags I saw sitting on top of the pizza oven for over a 1/2 hour was 1/2 of my order !!! I asked the counter lady, what took the longest to prepare of our order & why was 1/2 the order sitting on top of the oven so long instead of timing everything to be ready at the same time? Said they had a catering order & our sandwiches were delayed. When I mentioned 1/2 our order is stone cold - she apologized & said to call if it was cold ( ??? ). Needless to say, it's been over an hour and 1/2 since I left the message with the same counter lady without a call back...guess I'm not getting a call back read more

This is one of my favorite local pizzerías. They have a great selection of pizzas, slices available daily. I go hear with my family so we can try multiple slices and mix and match different pizzas. They also have a great wings and fries. read more

It upsets me to have to do this but here it goes. I always order from Johnny Napkins, we love their food but lately they've been slacking off. I placed an order for 1 wrap + 1 sandwich. It took 1 hour and 45 minutes to get delivered. Upon delivery I open up our containers and our food is completely cold. There's no reason why a pizzeria should have a 1 hr 45 wait time for two popular items off their menu especially when delivering in town. Nobody wants to eat cold food, especially not after waiting almost two hours for it. read more

Pizza is okay, wings are okay, good food for when you're in the mood. You can't tell it's a pizzeria from the outside, until you take a double look at the signs on the windows. Clean looking establishment. If you're craving, give them a try for yourself read more

If I could give them 15 stars I would. This place is AMAZING. First of all, their rice balls are so good they should be illegal. Secondly, their pizza dough is PHENOMENAL. It's the perfect combination of soft and fully, while not being too thick, and it has a perfect crunch factor. I have also always had a great customer service experience with them. All of their staff from the person who takes the orders to the delivery guy are friendly, prompt, and really try to go out of their way to please their customers. read more

absolutely love this place they are grandma pie is to die for also love the one with the pesto on it we probably order this twice a month we were both doing keto diet and we will get the cheesesteak without the bread always delicious good service sometimes you have to wait but that's OK you know your food is getting cooked fresh definitely try the pizza the grandma pie is really good thin with a lot of extra pesto the way we like it read more

This location used to be 'Lil John's Pizza' and honestly have been many other different pizza joints in the past years. It seems like they merged the old Johnny Napkins (from Route 22, famous for their burgers) and Lil John's Pizza. I had a quick dinner with my sister, brother in-law and nephew a few weeks ago here. We ordered a few pizza slices (grandma pie, Johnny sottossopra & chicken alfredo), garlic knots, chicken parm sandwich and chicken wings for the kid. I have to say that the pizza was pretty decent. All of the ones I've tried so far have been good. Imho, I give the edge a little bit to their "Lil Grandma Pie", "Johnny Sottossopra" is a close second (it reminds me of Pizza Hut crust but better). I wasn't too fond of their chicken parm sandwich, the tomato sauce was too bland for my liking. Most people probably order take-out or get delivery from here. If you want to dine-in, they do have a few booths available in the back and some high top tables and chairs up front. They also have a few parking spots available in the back just off Colonial Ave. The prices are reasonable for a place like this and pretty competitive compared to the other pizzerias in town. I'd definitely come back again. read more

I had ordered the garlic cheesy bread & fries as sides and was very happy with the food. Everything was delicious and delivery was extremely prompt. I will definitely be ordering from here again! read more

The restaurant delivery is amazing!! The food came hot and perfect!!! The garlic cheesy bread is ridiculously good and a MUST order!!! You also definitely should try their vodka sauce!! We had the stuffed rigatoni with vodka sauce which was delicious!! The tortellini with pesto sauce and chicken was incredible!! Everything was delicious! We will definitely be ordering from here again!!! Five stars for sure!!! read more

I ordered from here on Saturday night! Close to closing and the food was delicious!! The guy on the phone was very helpful and nice when I placed my ordered. I ordered 3 large pies, shrimp scampi ( sooooo delicious) , chicken wings and fries . Everything was delicious. Im still ranting and raving about the shrimp scampi it was sooooooo good. The pizza was really good too and the wings. I will most definitely be back and patron them again!!!! Absolutely read more

The signature Sicilian was SO GOOD! And the delivery was very fast. Zeppoles were also tasty!

I love this place! Their pepperoni rolls and garlic bread are to die for! The reason for 4 stars though is because the food can be inconsistent sometimes. Other than that, it's always a go to for us. Great place! read more

Your lucky you can have Johnny napkins pizza as it's so good it should be reserved only for the gods. That's all I gotta say except. Go!!! Just go!!! Put your phone down and stop reading this review because your only wasting time. You've already found the bestest most deeelisceous pizza that's 127 different kind of crazy amazing!!! read more

Delicious pizza. They offer different toppings and no matter the time of the day you visit the pizza always looks fresh and delicious. The staff is always nice and the prices are very reasonable. It's also a good place to sit as they offer a large dinning area that is cleaned. Parking in the back. read more

Ordered some take out. My wife ordered the penne vodka with shrimp, I got two slices of pizza (pepperoni/ bacon & onion) also a pepperoni roll. My wife said the shrimp were absolutely beautiful! Very well prepared! Pizza was the best in town I'm going to stop this review to take another bite....... The inside of the restaurant was appealing. High tables with high stools and a massive tv above for sports or even a giant pizza screensaver ‍ No parking on the street.... but there's a parking lot in the back located on the side street. Go through the back door and voila, in there. Now go try it! Get you a slice or two or EIGHT! That's a Pie!! Great place! read more

I came here to grab some pizza, I've come here before also when picking up food for delivery. It's very nice and clean in here. The pizza is good, but I really appreciate the awesome customer service here. The guys here are very polite, and kind. For me as a customer that goes great with a good slice of pizza. read more

This place is a family favorite. Great to dine in or to get delivered home are favorites are pretty much everything but especially the chicken parmigiana and the pizza (really any kind). If you dine its its BYOB and there is plenty of seating. read more

Johnny Napkins - Sicilian - Pizza Near Me - Union, New Jersey

The food is good and the people are friendly, but they struggle to execute delivery within reasonable timeframes. Four out of the past four times I've ordered, it's taken more than an hour to receive the food on a relatively small order. I give any business the benefit of the doubt on an occasional hiccup, but it's an operational issue that makes me think twice about continuing to order delivery here. read more

Ordered on May 7 with Uber eats. The order was missing the calzone. That's why I had to give 3 stars.

I attended a friends get together this past weekend and the food was so good I had to ask them where they got it from, there Penne vodka is the best I have ever had it was delicious!! To be honest everything I had from there was just outstanding!! I will definitely be ordering from there soon!! Hands down it was Amazing!! read more

Great tasting pizza. Every pie was delicious. Ordered a bunch of different pies with the crew I was working with. We came to pick up the food, place was packed and you can smell the food as soon as you walk in. Only thing I would suggest to the workers is when someone orders 10 pies with toppings don't get upset when the customer asks for paper dishes, I wouldn't come back just for that attitude. read more

I would give it a 3.5. It helps that they deliver which not many places do. I have not found that Union has a really good Pizza spot but this one is close. The reason the rating is not higher is their crust. It taste like partbake crust, it has a staleness to it which you don't realize as much when you eat it right away but if it is eaten a little later or reheated it just does not deliver that perfect balance of chew and crisp read more

Every time I come back home to NJ, I make sure to stop here. This is how pizza is supposed to be and I miss it when I go back to the South. Also try the Penne vodka and Johnny Boy panini; they're A-1. read more

we ordered for pickup because delivery was 2 hours And that really isnt the problem. that is expected especially ordering on a Sunday football Sunday at that. The problem was the fact that I had to wait almost 20 min for my food when we were told it would take 35 minutes. To top it all off my food was sitting there for God knows how long. So all my food minus the pie I asked to be reheated was cold. We order from This establishment all the time and this isnt the first time our food was cold but this service we received today was highly unacceptable. read more

Our family usually order from here at least once a month. Usually everything is delicious and we have no issues. But yesterday I ordered a wrap and it was the only food I had for lunch/dinner. I started to feel sick a few hours later. At first it wasn't so bad. But later at night I was basically sleeping in my bathroom. I've never had food poisoning in my life. I have it all right now the chills, stomach cramps, fevers and runs, aches. Never again will I order from here. Wow! I haven't been this sick. Thankfully my son had some fries and chicken and he is ok. read more

My family and I had to plan a lunch for about 40 people this weekend. I chose to cater with Jonny Napkins. All I can say is everything was excellent. I sat with the manager who was nothing but professional and even took the time to sit with me and help plan my menu. He answered all my questions and assured me everything would be great. Well he was right. The food was hot, fresh and delicious. We ordered hot dishes , Sandwiches and pizza. Everyone couldn't stop talking about how amazing everything was. I will without a doubt go to Johnny Napkins for all my takeout and catering events. From the outstanding customer service to the incredible food I would highly recommend Johnny Napkins to all my family and friends. read more

I love this place this is my go to is the buffalo jumbo wings with the side of fries. This is really good and it's not expensive and it always taste fresh ! The only con is the side of fries is like less than an handful ... other than that it's awesome ! read more

I ordered from Johnny Napkins for my team when we were at Kean University. The person who took the order was great and the delivery person was even better. Called when they were near and even helped get our order onto our bus for the team. Pizza was fantastic. This place will be our go to when we comeback to Union. read more
