The friendly waitress Grace promptly took our drink order and gave us time to review the menu. She brought a basket of delicious warm garlic knots and bread with both butter and olive oil balsamic dipping sauce. My husband ordered the Sunday sauce complete either pork, sausage, two large meatballs and a huge dollop of ricotta. He thoroughly enjoyed it with plenty to spare. I had the lemon cream pasta. Very rich but needing more lemon. Such a huge portion I will be enjoying it again. Great to have a local place to sit down and enjoy a casual meal

Let me start by saying I live in Ridge. This place is great if you are in a bind, but by no means…read moredo I go out of my way to get food here. It is more of a pizza place than an Italian restaurant. Although they have a wide selection of different types of pizza slices, they are are very generic. Out of all of them I believe the OG Grandma pizza is their best. They try to overdo it with all these crazy flavors but if they stuck to the basics (6-10) different pies they can really take the pizza to the next level. Same goes for the dining food, I take quality over quantity any day. Again, its not BAD, but it wouldn't be a place I take my friends/family from out of state for authentic pizza/Italian. Something worth noting. I had a bad experience the last time I went there which unfortunately made me decide not to come back. If you haven't herd of 'too good to go', google it, it will help with story. I called Alfredos a half hour before closing to order 1 plain pie. I got a bad vibe on the phone like I was inconveniencing them. I arrive 15 minutes later I didn't want to keep them waiting and my pie is just getting 'sent' (Placed in oven) so I know its got a solid 10-13 mins (average) So I wait and while I'm waiting I ask the clerk "Do you do too good to go?" because I noticed a significant about of leftover pizza in display case. He replies "No" I then asked "What do you do with all of this pizza at the end of the night?" He replied "We throw it out" I know for a fact based on experience that MOST pizza places either give it to staff to take it home, or will sell it all for a cheap price opposed to just wasting it in the trash. So I ask and the guy gave me a really hard time. I said "If you're not taking it home, can I pay you (offer cash or charge whatever's easier) I don't want it free" He then rushed my pie out of the oven and said "Have a good night!" It really rubbed me the wrong way, what a complete waste. Take the cash and pocket it, share it as a 'tip' I don't care. Why would you not want to make MORE money and make a customer happy? Between that the the unprofessional delivery drivers in street clothes eating behind the counter and touching everything with their bare hand I said I'm done wit this place.

I used…read moreto come here all the time as a kid, and even though it's been years, that same no-frills, neighborhood pizza place energy is still very much alive. We started by sharing a salad and WOW. Do not skip it. It's one of those simple Italian salads that somehow just hits perfectly, and adding the mozzarella is an absolute must. Fresh, generous portions, and way better than you'd expect from a classic pizza joint. I could've eaten the whole thing myself and been happy. We each grabbed a slice and shared some garlic knots, which were warm, soft, and loaded with garlic flavor (aka exactly what you want). The slices were classic New York-style, nothing overdone, just solid, comforting pizza that reminds you why these spots never go out of style. The menu keeps things simple in the best way. Pizza, slices, and, salads. All the staples you expect, no unnecessary extras. It makes ordering easy and keeps the focus on what they do well. You're not here for trendy toppings or experimental flavors, you're here for reliable, satisfying food. The vibe inside is super casual and welcoming. It feels like a true local spot where regulars come in, families stop by, and no one's trying too hard. The staff were friendly and easygoing, which just adds to the comfort factor. I'm already looking forward to coming back, and next time, I might just order that salad for myself.

I have no idea how this place has four stars on yelp!…read more I walked in at 6 PM on a Wednesday after a long drive in traffic. There was not a person in the place and the pizza counter options looked so so but I trusted yelp. I ordered a plain slice, which looked OK before it went in the oven and a buffalo chicken slice. When I opened up the box and saw the plain slice I could tell immediately this was not going to be a good pizza. When you can still see the individual shreds of cheese, it is a good sign that it is cheap cheese. The buffalo chicken slice was surprisingly OK but if you can't deliver a plain cheese slice that's enough for me.
