Bottom line: amazing vegan and gluten-free pizza options, but stick to pickup ONLY. DO NOT order delivery under any circumstances. As a vegan with a gluten-free family member, finding a pizza place that does both well is nearly impossible - until we found this spot. The vegan and gluten-free options here are genuinely delicious, which is why we order from here all the time. However, I need to give a serious warning about delivery. Every single time we've tried it, it's been a disaster. We're talking 1-2 hour wait times, which is absolutely ridiculous for pizza. One time they even delivered my order to the wrong address, so I had to wait even longer to get my food. At that point, the pizza isn't even worth it anymore. If you order for PICKUP though, this place is fantastic. The food is ready on time, it's hot and fresh, and you'll actually enjoy your meal. We've learned our lesson and now only do pickup, and we've had a great experience every time. So if you need solid vegan and gluten-free pizza, this is your spot - just walk in and pick it up yourself. Your stomach (and your patience) will thank you. read more

I'm so hyped they have Vegan food as so many places completely ignore the veg customers! I am sad to say the food was a miss for me but I am not sure if was due to getting delivery instead of dining in. read more

Wonderful food and one of the few pizzerias in the area that has vegan options like meatball sandwiches and cheese steaks. We didn't try the pizza, but I'm sure that's good as well so stop by if you're in the area, you will not be disappointed read more

This time I kept my order to pizzeria classics instead of sandwiches and it was a very good decision. The vegan wings were in fact better eaten fresh--they were crispy and hot, as opposed to steaming in their container and losing that crispiness after a long car ride. My partner had a slice of the (regular) cheesesteak pizza, and I ordered their white vegan pizza & a vegan mac n' cheese stromboli to go. White pizza: once again, top marks. Mac & cheese stromboli: essentially perfect comfort food. I've had a lot of vegan mac & cheese dishes, many disappointing and some quite good, but the hardest (for me) to find has been the true comfort kind. A balance of gooey richness and tender pasta that doesn't have a strong flavor but is also not straight up bland, and gets better as you eat it. I didn't take photo of it, but it was great for that. read more

Friday's delivered pizzas were ontime, but a bit undercooked and the outside crusts were large. Onion rings and wings were good but a little heavy on the breading read more

Have only gotten pizza here a handful of times over many years and has seemed to be hit or miss but overall generally nothing special. But I'd have to say when you add the infamous chicken caesar salad pizza along with a rice and beans pizza not only to your menu but sitting out on the counter to display as some of your top pizzas, that is a huge red flag and I will never be coming back. I'm all for having different toppings but those things just aren't meant on pizza. Authentic italian pizza is getting harder to come by nowadays. read more

Pasquale's, I love you I love you I love you so much. Vegans, lactose intolerant, anyone who has a food allergy and is tired of crappy alternatives, this is literally heaven. Wow. Actually the best vegan pizza I've ever had. They do not miss ever. Plus, their prices are perfect. Please give this place a shot. This is worth a road trip. Thank you so much, I was so tired of never being able to eat out. I finally got to enjoy pizza night with my family. You are the best, Pasquales. Non-vegan options are also out of this world. If you really want to surprise someone, get them a garlic knot crust pizza. read more

Loved this sweet spot for Italian food in Middletown. We are vegan and were so delighted that they have a vegan menu. We shared both a vegan broccoli calzone (delicious!) with red sauce on the side, and a wonderful Beyond Meatball sub with vegan cheese. The bread was crunchy and the vegan meat was, well, so good you couldn't tell it wasn't the "real" deal. We also ordered sautéed spinach with garlic, and out came a big ole plate so we inhaled that. A lovely crew that was super friendly. We didn't try any of the nonvegan food but it all looked delicious, especially the pizza. Stop by, you won't be disappointed. read more

Born and raised in Brooklyn so I grew up around good pizza I had the buffalo slice and it was really good the service was good and the place was clean it had that old school Brooklyn feeling I will be back to try there other food read more

I found this place via a recommendation in NJ Vegans page and SUPER glad we did. The vegan pizzas are just sooo good that we drive an hour each way and pay tools just to eat there. Family favorite!! I highly recommend their seitan buffalo wings and grandmas garlic knot Mac and cheese pizza. Drool worthy! Give it a try and you will be hooked!! read more

pizza came 25 mins late on a scheduled deliver, it was cold and the pepperoni tasted like it had gone bad

I'm a New Yorker living in Jersey, so I've had my fair share of vegan pizza since going vegan in 2008. Pasquales III is hands down my #1 favorite spot for vegan pizza. Everything they have to offer is incredible. They have the best garlic knot crust of any I've tried. Typically pizza places don't have a great knot to pizza ratio, but with P3 you get plenty of pizza bites without the knots stealing the show. read more

So excited to find a vegan pizza that my kid not only eats (two slices!!) but also I can pack for school. The cheese is from Violife and literally the best gift you can to a parent with a kid that has lactose issues. Thank you for putting this on your menu! read more

Drove 30 minutes out to try this amazing pizza . It's hard to find a pizzeria that sells good vegan pizza but this deff hit the spot. We ordered a pie that was massive in size (so yes a bit pricey, but worth it). The garlic knot crust was sooo good ! My pop and moms who aren't vegan really enjoyed it as well and didn't notice much difference except obviously texture of the cheese. But unlike other vegan pizzas the cheese melted and it had the same affect as a regular pizza. The staff cared for what they were serving us (received a call to make sure they had it right in their part) and that's also what will keep me coming back for more !! read more

Always happy to correct things and add things to their menu like vegan options..a great local place and if you're vegan they have pizza, bring meatballs and even vegan chicken options read more

We've been DYING to try this place since they came out with their vegan menu! So, of course, we took the 1.5 hour drive out & MAN was it WORTH it ⁣ We got half mac n cheese & half buffalo tempeh with a garlic knot crust! We couldn't choose a favorite half, both were ABSOLUTELY amazing!⁣ ⁣ The mac n cheese was creamy & had a very "dairy like" cheese taste, one of the BEST mac & cheeses we've ever had! ⁣ ⁣ The buffalo tempeh was the perfect amount of spice & the tempeh had a great texture! ⁣ ⁣ 10/10 would 100000% recommend making the drive, no matter how far or close you are to this place! What's even better was that, everyone was SO friendly there. The staff works so hard! read more

Great local place for take-out. Variety and quick to heat up a slice. Reasonable prices and never disappointed.

It's small inside. It's not a place you can enjoy eating inside of. But the food here is great for take out! It's really the closest you get to New York pizza read more

Restaurant was closed even though they were excepting online orders. I have called and went to the restaurant and at no avail I'm still waiting to be refunded over 10 days now for the pizzas I never got. Idk how you run a business but you owe me three pies or give me my money back. Wtf! read more

Closest to NY pizza I have found in NJ!!! The garlic knot pizza was a hit too much oil but the pepperoni and sausage were divine. Must try!

If only Pasquale's would deliver to Red Bank! Then we'd have a good pizza place in town. Their Buffalo Chicken slice is the best I've ever had, exactly like all the other reviews said. It's a must try for anyone who has never had it. This past trip I had a white slice and a Buffalo, the white was good the Buffalo was great. I've had some other slices here but will always go back just for the buffalo slice. 5+ stars for the Buffalo slice and 3.5-4 stars for the other items I've tried. read more

Very good Vegan pizza with vegan chicken and a Cauliflower crust. Good vegan cheese. Highly recommended.

I had high expectations for this place but it's really just a regular Italian pizzeria. Ordered the chicken Francese but it was too watered down. My boyfriend ordered the spaghetti and meatballs and it was just average, good but nothing special. Wish the food had more flavor. read more

I cannot believe I didn't find this pizza place sooner! It's super rare to find a pizzeria in NJ with vegan pizza. Hands down the best vegan pizza I have ever had. We love this place!!! We ordered from here a few times now and will continue ordering from here at least once a month! We live too far for delivery, so we got pick up and it is about a 30 min drive. So worth the drive every time! Food was always ready once we got there. Staff is friendly and nice. They have a huge separate vegan menu along with their regular menu, so we ordered a few different things to try each time. For an appetizer we got buffalo wings which were made from seitan and came with buffalo and ranch dressings. They were amazing and delicious. Crispy and tender. We always order these when we come, it's a must! The ranch dressing is soooo good!! We also ordered a side order of fries. They were great. It was a generous amount and were super crispy and tasty. Now for the best part, the pizzas. You can choose from specialty pizzas or make your own. The vegan pizzas are made with violife cheese and it's great! You can choose from a regular pizza, grandma style, or garlic knot crust. They even have gluten free crust too! We get the popular garlic knot crust pizzas every time. You can even get two different types of pizzas on one pie which we loved since it was so hard to choose what to try. We got the chicken bacon ranch pizza and the big boy pizza. Another time we got the buffalo tempeh and spinach and red pepper pizza. My favorite out of the 4 kinds is the chicken bacon ranch. The big boy pizza had fried seitan chicken, bacon and French fries with a homemade sauce. We just tried the banana pie this weekend and it was pretty good. My husband said it's his favorite out of all the ones we tried so far. It had banana peppers, cherry peppers, vegan seitan chicken with ranch dressing. The pizzas are so decked out with toppings and delicious, we usually get full after having one slice. Each pizza is super unique and has a ton of great flavors. When asked if they use nut free cheeses they told me yes and that they make their own homemade sauces. We cannot wait to try more of their vegan pizzas since they are so many great speciality ones on their menu. Lastly, we got a small calzone. We choose to make our own and it had onions, peppers, mushrooms and broccoli. It was absolutely delicious! We loved it! The vegan ricotta is very very good and it came with a side of marina sauce. We are counting down the days when we will go back again! read more

Fantastic staff and a great selection to choose from. My son is vegan and this is the only place we can go to and both of us have a wonderful and varied selection to pick from!!! I'd give this place 7 stars if I could!!! read more

I've been ordering from Pascuales for many years, but the food quality began to decline months ago and they are now overcharging for party tray of buffalo wings. The quantity used to be on par with pricing, but not anymore. Needless to say, this is the last time I order from them. read more

I've never been here before but this was my boyfriends favorite place before he became vegan(he's been vegan 5 years now). He always raved about it and when they finally came out with the vegan menu, we needed to go. IT WAS AMAZING. For someone who isn't vegan, we ordered half tempeh buffalo chicken and half taco pizza with garlic knot crust and it was THE BEST taco pizza I've ever had. It was massive and one pie got us two adults, three entire meals. The people on the phone were helpful and very kind. We paid 36 dollars which seems steep, but compared to other vegan pizza places, it is right on target ESPECIALLY because we got THREE meals out of it compared to just the one we would get at another pizza place. Loved it !! read more

Ordered delivery though grub hub paid $26.00 For a cheese pizza with two toppings. After biting into a slice there was an off taste. When I turned over the crust it was burnt. I enjoy a well done crust but this was beyond that. I figured that this below stand quality would have improved. read more

so i went to pasquale's pizzeria iii today. it was a 35 min drive. so i ordered it when i left because it said through there website it said it would take 20 minutes but when i got there the food wasn't done. we left at 5:30 and got the food at around 6:35. we were really hungry and kinda upset because we thought it was supposed to be 20 min to make not 1 hour. we ordered one vegan garlic knot pizza half mac and cheese half plain and my mom and brother got a garlic knot pie half bacon half plain with extra cheese. but when we got home we realized they never did the garlic knot crust. they were disappointed because it costs extra for the garlic knot and they didn't get it and there's was a little burnt as well. my pizza was very good and for filling. they are a bit pricy but yeah just wanted to share my experience read more

Great vegan options! Try the white pie or the garlic knot crust. The apps are equally good.

Vegan Garlic Knots Cheese Pizza with Vegan Sauce on the side for dipping. Came with family on a Sunday just after opening to dine in. Pizza took about 40 minutes. Tasted delicious but slightly on the burnt side. Kids did not know it was Vegan Pizza until I told them after they were done eating. We will come again. read more

This is a followup review, 6 years later. We had stopped going to Pasquale's some time ago (Back in 2018) when the service and the food seemed to be going a bit down hill. Today we picked up 2 White Slices and 2 Pepperoni. The Pepperoni was fine, but the White Slices are nothing like I remember. I'm going to agree with another review, (The Cheese tastes like the most generic brand you could buy in a super market, and I happen to buy Shoprite brand and it's BETTER than what I had today.) The Ricotta cheese was so bland I could hardly even taste it, and it tasted vaguely of garlic, as if a garlic clove had been shown to the pie before it left and it had memories of it. I'm not sure what happened, but I'm likely to not return permanently. I used to love this place, they always made us feel like family. Back in 2018 that stopped, and the prices went up on products that went down in quality. Now it's just horrible tasting. Even with a whole new crew in there, the food has not improved... I used to say this place was BETTER than any place I'd ever gone to in NYC where I grew up. It "Was" Better... not anymore.... I am truly saddened by this. read more

Ordered two pizzas and buffalo wings yesterday. $60???? The pizzas were barely cooked and the buffalo wings did not have any sauce on them they gave a watery concoction that was pink with blue cheese to go with it I assume that's their "buffalo sauce". The restaurant was empty and now I know why. My husband and son both got sick after eating the food. Needless to say we will never go back there again. I just recently heard that they changed owners maybe that's why the quality of food has gone to the toilet literally! read more

This place is the SPOT for vegans and non-vegans alike! They offer so many great options for both and are so willing to accommodate any request! Their vegan mac and cheese is heavenly and don't even get me started with the garlic knot crust . This place is a staple everytime I head down south and could not say enough great things! And they're not skimpy on the toppings like most places! The best vegan pizza around hands down! read more

Ordered a large half plain half mushroom pizza. Delivery was quick and pizza was hot. The flavor of the pizza was good, however, it was very undercooked. So undercooked the dough was still a little doughy. When you pulled a slice out of the pie it completely flopped. Very upsetting! I'll give it a try as their subs are very good and just ask for the pizza more well Tried buffalo chicken wrap too. It was just chicken and a ton of buffalo and ranch. It was so mushy! read more

Terrible pizza. No one Italian could possibly be running this place. The sauce is too salty and also too sweet. They don't add herbs or garlic. The cheese is low quality, salty and greasy. Both my husband and I didn't like the aftertaste in our mouths. DEFINITELY NOT coming back. read more

We ordered in Pizza , wings , salad and chicken cutlets for Sunday Football. Everything was fresh and delicious , no complaints about anything. I would strongly recommend trying this place for yourself read more

Best buffalo pizza and wings !! Love this place !! Shrimp scampi pizza is awesome also
