People don't understand orders. We can't be the only group who has struggled Trying to order what we wanted but ultimately Pizza isn't that good, certainly nowhere even close to being "the best pizza in New Jersey". Must be a previous owner whose coattails' acclaim they are riding off of. All the pasta dishes were off (spaghetti instead of linguine) and priced too high. Total pass, 4.7 on google is unearned or due to previous owner. read more

Voted #1 at NJ Pizza Fest 2024, Nino's Bistro Express on Route 66 in Neptune is a summer must! Right near the Jersey Shore Outlets, it's the perfect pit stop after a shopping spree or beach day. Their coal-fired wings are a standout--juicy, smoky, and not fried, so you feel a little better about how many you're about to eat. I treated myself to their award-winning personal pizza, and let's be honest--I wasn't sharing. It was crispy, cheesy, and absolutely worth every bite. And because I needed some seafood in my life, I ordered the shrimp scampi--and yes, I added cheese. I know the rule... but rules are meant to be broken, and I know what I want! This spot is the real deal--don't miss out this summer. read more

We ordered food today. It was definitely not the old owners. It was not the quality that it once was. Will not be ordering from them again. Besides the fact that the person on the phone asked me to repeat information a few times, as he didn't understand me. Definitely not the best person to be answering the call for orders. read more

Being a long-time fan of the Nino's Coal-Fired Pizza restaurant(s), I was eager to try Nino's Bistro Express once I passed it several weeks ago and found myself drawn in by the modern style of the window signage and lights. Upon passing Nino's Bistro Express for probably the third time I impulsively visited to try two slices prior to dinner, as I typically have a late lunch. What I didn't expect was to try every single slice of pizza on the counter, sans the Bella Bianco, and have that be my dinner for the night just because I enjoyed the first two slices so much. I'm happy to report that all of the slices were varying shades of excellent, as was the garlic knot. I was particularly fond of a thin square Margherita-style slice, which used an extremely high-quality mozzarella. The chicken on the buffalo chicken pie, which was artfully done, was higher quality than average. Even the red pepper flakes seemed larger and better than the typical shaker. Square pizza is admittedly my favorite style, and the Sicilian was also quite unique: crispy dough, interestingly browned on top, with the airy texture that it's supposed to have. The sauce and cheese were in a top league for this. Even the cheese pie was a great value for the quality. Every pizza had signs of freshness and quality, with incredible dough that the menu mentions is imported from Italy. Despite utilizing more conventional ovens rather than the coal-fired ovens that this once local chain of restaurants is known for, the pizza had a crispy exterior and pleasantly large air bubbles. In fact, I think I prefer this style of pizza to the coal-fired personally, which is saying a lot since many coal-fired pizza restaurants are ranked as some of the best in the world for their oven. The flavor, portion, and quality of toppings made each pizza worth trying. They were also all completely different from what I'm used to at the Brick location, in a good way. Service was friendly and served each slice with a smile. Efficient too, as I saw other customers that were in and out with a hot slice of pizza within a minute or so. It's slightly small inside, which fits the Bistro Express style, although they do serve their entire dinner menu as well. Nino's Bistro Express may just be the best Nino's concept yet, with a phenomenal variety of high-quality pizza and a more price-conscious menu. read more

Tiny hole in the wall, but my kids said it was the Best Buffalo Pizza Ever (it definitely looked amazing) Stuffed portobello was also delicious! read more

I really like this spot. Sophia's Steak Sandwich is Excellent. Love how they have Italian Long Hot Peppers as a side for the real wops like myself. Pizza is pretty damn good too. Praying they stay afloat because the competition is heavy around here, so go support them!!! read more

So disappointed! Tomato pie was not good, sauce bland, pizza floppy. Warm goat cheese Salad was below average and the goat cheese were cold, small , hard unappetizing balls. I so wanted to like this place based on reviews but I won't be back. read more

Had lunch at this new little place close to my building. Great assortment of pizzas, calzones and garlic knots when you walk in. I had the meatball pizza because I couldn't resist it and it was delicious! Their sauce was perfect. Service was nice & courteous. Place was clean and the price point was great. I noticed that their website is very well put together and they have daily specials I can pick up to take home on occasion. Looking forward to trying their pasta:) read more

Went twice just to be sure. And will be going back as soon as possible. First time, Chicken Marsala slice - one of the best slices I've ever had in my life. There was something special going on that I could not figure out how they pulled it off. I love a saucy chicken Marsala - how'd they get it on a slice without it being a mess. Some sort of magic. Joeys Italian Sandwich - I believe they may have toasted it a little. Had heard of toasting a cold sub before. Did not know that was what was always missing. Now I'm disappointed when I get a sub somewhere and it's not toasted. Also, the bread. No words. Just perfect. Second time, did the Prix Fix menu thing with the lasagna for a lunch. I feel like I'm taking money out of their pockets. Great portion size - if I wasn't such a chub I could have probably shared it. Nice side salad. And a real dessert. Sorry - just a beautiful portion of tiramisu. Everything delicious. And fresh. Spent my earlier days working at a local pizza place. This place made what we used to serve look like trash. read more

Just went yesterday. The girl was rude and the food was generic, cheap, typical and overpriced. The bread for my sandwich was stale and the prosciutto as cheap and flavorless. read more
