I was introduced to this place, located in Midland Park, NJ by my daughter and son-in-law. The menu lists a lot of choices, so choosing a dish diners want to eat can be overwhelming. Since I am visiting, I don't get to eat here often, so when there's a choice between 2 pastas "houses", I have always chosen to eat here. The last time the family and I went and had our meals at the restaurant, I believe the service we had was good. Server was nice and polite, and the ambiance was nice enough for conversations. I do hate being seated right near the restroom though, so I requested sitting as far away as we can the last time we were there, and restaurant hostess had no problem accommodating us. The last few times, due to family's schedules, we ordered for pick up. Picking up was easy enough: go to the counter, give them your name, pay, and get your food. Because I hate paying for a fee by using my credit card, I always make sure to bring cash to pay my bill. I recently fell in love with their spaghetti with clam sauce (white option), so that was my order for today. With my first bite of this dish, substituting linguine for spaghetti, my mouth exploded with the excellent flavors of spices, used to cook the sauce, along with the chopped clam and the chewy linguine. This dish is prepared and served as a larger potion, so make sure you save your tummy for dish, if you choose to order one. My daughter loves her fettuccine rustica dish minus the peas and sun-dried tomatoes, which is a mom's approved dish. We also ordered a 12" personal pizza. The pizza here is not as good as their pasta dishes, so no additional comment. Overall, I truly enjoyed all of the dishes I have ordered from this location, and am looking forward to dine here again the next time I visit my daughter and family. read more

I'm really disappointed, and I can't give this place more than a single star. We went with a group of 4 toddlers and 3 adults, hoping for a simple meal. We wanted to order a large pizza for the kids to share, but were told they don't do large pies for dine-in after 4:30 PM. We explained we just needed something for the kids and would be ordering entrees for the adults. The waitress barely acknowledged us and didn't offer any helpful alternatives. So, we ended up ordering individual personal pies for each kid, which she failed to mention or suggest the idea they could actually be shared (I mean look at my pictures, is a 2 year old gonna eat that size personal pie herself?) Just to clarify, we had a 2 year old, a 4 year old , a 5, and a 7 year old with us, so mostly preschool aged kids. No one told us that the personal pizzas would be big enough for the kids and we ended up bringing home essentially 3 full pizzas. On top of that, they charged my son for an adult seltzer ($3.50 for a seltzer seriously?), and kids' drinks (like apple juice or soda) were priced at $3.25 each. The service was also lacking. We literally didn't see our server after the initial order, with the exception of when the check came. They added a 20% gratuity automatically. Normally, I'd understand that for large groups, but the service didn't justify it at all which felt like they knew this and went with a set it and forget it mentality towards the table. As for the food, it was disappointing. The avocado chicken panini was greasy, drenched in butter, and the tomato slices were so thick, they could've been used as hockey pucks. The $21 goat cheese and beet salad was bland, and two of the three kids didn't even like the pizza sauce. In the end, we paid $135 for 4 toddlers and 2 adult entrees, which felt completely overpriced for the quality and service. Overall, this place lacks decent service, overpriced food, and I wouldn't recommend it. read more

Pizza place. Pizza is in the name. Yet we come to find out they don't serve large pies for dining in after 4pm. Place is empty at 5:30 on a Friday and they wouldn't consider an exception for a family of 6 that came for a 5 year old's birthday. Waitress was nice. read more

We love pizzaiolo. Food is fresh, pizza is good everyday slice. I've used them many times for catering as well! Highly recommend.

My clients picked this restaurant for lunch, and the order was called in. I got the specialty turkey sandwich. When I arrived I parked in the plaza lot. I walked into a cute restaurant. The food wasn't ready yet and waited for about 10 more minutes. I paid and left. When I ate the sandwich, it was very good. Inloved the bread it came on. I had a good experience. read more

It gives me great pleasure to memorialize the fact that we've discontinued supporting Pizziaolo By Brothers in Midland Park. Nearly $30 for a pie with one half topping of one item is absolute robbery (particularly when you can't consistently make a good pie). We are so pleased with our decision to never support Pizziaolo again. NEXT!!!!! read more

Never will go there again. I ordered a pickup their website said it was ready. I went they didn't know what I was talking about. They said it wasn't ready. All the time it was sitting on top of their oven. Terrible customer service. This was after a half hour. And there were other disgruntled customers. STAY AWAY! read more

I gave them another opportunity after a bad experience around a year ago. Ordered online as I was in a zoom and couldn't call the order in. Signed up as a new customer and ordered at 6:20pm. No response saying when order would be ready just that it was being prepared. Sent my adult kids to grab it at 6:50. A pizza and a panini couldn't take that long. My son goes in and gives my name and sandwich is ready but not the pizza- he waits 10 more minutes and nothing. 10 minutes later as the staff continue to chat behind the counter they find the pizza on top of the oven- had been ready for 20 minutes. Completely unacceptable and I am welcomed with a cold pizza 70 minutes after I order it. This was order number 1745160 Tony and would appreciate a refund for my cold pizza. read more

Went for lunch. Everything was very fresh and delicious. The calamari was really crisp, the chicken parmesan entrée was generous, the salad was satisfying. The light coming in the window midday made the side dining area look very appealing. We will go back. read more

What happened? How do you send someone home with a pizza completely burned black on the bottom?

By far, this is some of the worst "Italian" food we've ever had. A special order for the holiday, the lasagna was just not lasagna, no sauce, very little lasagna pasta. When I complained, the "owner" argued with me. I pointed out Pizzaiola's online policy and recorded message is "Your satisfaction is our primary concern." The stuffed mushrooms with crabmeat smelled incredibly fishy, tasted awful, it was all inedible. If I could give a 0 or -10 review, I would! The food was terrible, the owners attitude was awful. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR YOUR TIME!!!. He actually said I was scamming him and I asked to what end why would I do that but he couldn't answer. Avoid this place at all cost. SAID I WAS SCAMMING HIM. read more

My family lives nearby and this is one of our go-to Italian restaurants. I wouldn't call it a typical "classy" Italian night out, more of a casual Italian style but the service does not disappoint and the food is always delicious. I'm typically eating chicken/buffalo chicken salads or the salmon from here, but the calamari and eggplant rollatini are great apps. I think the pricing is pretty on par with the area and the quality of food. Personally I don't go here often but the rest of my family loves dining here. I enjoy seeing a manager present and greeting the usuals (my family) when we visit and everyone is friendly. They bring a glass water jug to the table, know how my mom likes her cappuccino, and provide a great atmosphere. As a casual Italian restaurant, I think they have a great thing going for them! read more

The owner, was the most unprofessional! I wouldn't come back here if it was the last place on earth! We ordered a large pie and was given a personal pie. The waiter came back to us telling us, on Friday and Saturdays, dine in, they don't offer large pies?????? What? Has anyone EVER heard of this? So, we asked to prepare 2 pies then he, the owner said he will charge us for the waiters mistake and had such an awful attitude. No concern at all about our displeasure. Wow! The food was nothing to talk about.. the owner was the worse I have ever dealt with. I know almost all the owners and managers in most restaurants in Ridgewood and The area. Well I would NEVER do business with Pizzaialo by brothers ever!! read more

I got the asparagus and arugula salad. I've gotten this before and raved about it. This time I was disappointed as there was barely any asparagus or pancetta. I took a picture of the bottom too. That was as far as the pancetta went, there were only a small amount of tiny pieces and maybe one asparagus stalk worth of asparagus. It cost nearly $15 and was not worth the price as I felt I paid that much for a to-go container of arugula. read more

Steamed salmon and asparagus ...delicious and fresh I felt a bit frustrated with a salad and quickly they were so kind and took it off of my bill but when I received the salmon and vegetable it was perfectly prepared and to my liking! I will say for a pizza place. It was a bit pricey however I'd definitely go back. Convenient and fresh,very clean environment and not just another pizza joint! I used to visit when I was a kid and this family has done a terrific job of keeping this family owned business alive for over 40 years... thanks brothers read more

Our go-to joint for quick slices and sausage & peppers subs. Good pizza and friendly staff!

I have never been so grossed out eating a meal at a restaurant. The restaurant itself looks really nice well decorated, the waitress was also very nice, however our meal the pizza was delicious and then my husband got his salad there was a clot of hair on his salad I wanted to throw up The four of us completely lost our appetite. It was also very embarrassing since We were with friends from out of town that wanted to try a New Jersey pizza such a disappointment. Be aware if you go to this place you might be eating hair ball , Yuck. read more

Had a great dining experience at Pizzaiolo recently. They have an impressive menu with a ton of options since there's something for everyone. They even offer gluten-free pasta and pizza crust. I opted to try their gluten-free margherita pizza, which also ended up being quite tasty as a cold leftover later that day. My boyfriend was adventurous in ordering a chicken parm pizza and loved it. The service was great and the decor/atmosphere had a very cool vibe. This is a place worth checking out for some different types of pizza. read more

What is it with Pizza places around here lately. Second reccomended place that the pizza was horrible. The locals talk about Pizzaiolo all the time and how great the pizza is. We had a few slices and they were horrible. So mushy, served cold and nothing even close to decent pizza. You would think being in business for so long they would have pizza making down. Well I now see all the negative reviews so it looks like its only a matter of time before this place is another quick burger joint. Maybe beast Burger will take over the space. read more

Some months ago I posted a review based on my concerns over the changes in the food and the inexperienced servers. We didn't stop going there because we understood that they were still impacted by the remains of COVID and the shortage of experienced wait staff. We felt that things would eventually turn around. We were pleased to see that things improved a bit during our last two visits. My chicken parmigiana was plentiful, cheesy with great sauce. It was served hot. My wife's eggplant rollitini was back to the original three servings. Again it was plentiful, served hot and tasty. We were even wondering if they had a new chef. One of our guests had a pork chop on special; it was a generous portion surrounded by vegetables in a tasty sauce. The wait staff appeared to improve. One waitress has been there for several months and seems to be catching on. The other waitresses are a bit new to this country and are very pleasant; however, I found that you still have to ask for things silverware, cheese, water, etc. You also have to be very clear with your order because they are still getting used to the language. All in all, a welcome improvement. read more

It's not the food. The food isn't bad, actually. It's the servers. One in particular, Jackie Jackie has served me along with family friends and coworkers on several occasions and I never complained. This review has been a long time coming. So here it is. Jackie, the server has an all around bad attitude. She has a very rude, dismissive, and abrupt demeanor. God forbid I have question or need to change or add to my order. She's very rude. You can tell she just hates her job. Not to mention, she takes her time getting to our table and has an attitude if there is an order error, an overcharge, or other discrepancy on our bill. I have to ask another server where she is half the time. She is demanding of a generous tip as if she has gone above and beyond. I will generously tip for good service. I was there once when the police were called by a customer over an argument about a tip. Unreal! If I go to have lunch there again, I'll ask for a different server. That's if I ever go back. She's lost this establishment a customer. read more

I ordered a pie for lunch and received the wrong pie, I called and they made a new one. The new pie was not made well there was blobs of minced jar garlic thrown all over the pie and barley any tomatoes and I ordered a bruschetta pie. Mind you I'm on my lunch break for work, it took my whole lunch to correct the issue to still not be satisfied. Not to mention they did not offer any credit or a free item for the inconvenience on their part. Not professional if you ask me. The food is expensive so the service should be a lot better than that. read more

I order delivery from here pretty frequently with my family and this is definitely one of our go-to's. The delivery takes awhile but they're always here when they say they're gonna be. My personal favorite is a well done pizza with extra sauce and mushroom and eggplant as toppings. I also recommend their gnocchi with either bolognese or pesto sauce, but I wouldn't suggest you save it as leftovers (the gnocchi turns into mush). We've ordered a bunch of other things here, but these are our favorites. The prices are a bit high for the quality of the food. Other than that, this place is pretty good. read more

Extremely disappointed in this location that used to be a favorite of mine. Ordered an Italian hero and received the saddest excuse for a sandwich of all time. Additionally, the croutons in my salad were the texture of day old bread and the lettuce extremely soggy.

We were new customers to this restaurant and our experience was not a good one at all. We ordered pizza and salad (simple enough), when the pie was brought to our table it was a personal pie, not a regular size pie. We told the waiter it wasn't what we ordered and his reply was..."we don't offer regular size pie on the weekend due to alot of take out orders for regular size pies". He apologized for his mistake in not letting us know. We were VERY surprised and never heard of such a thing. Ok, that said we would order a 2nd personal pie but offered to only pay for 1. He got the owner involved and that's when things turned really bad. The owner said their policy stands and he wasn't willing to make any concession to 1st time (and now last time) customers. He never apologized for the misunderstanding either and shushed us out of the restaurant. My husband and I go out for dinner on a regular basis and NEVER encountered such poor business practice. It's a wonder they ARE in business. I strongly reccomend not visiting this establishment. read more

This is my 8 yr old nephew's favorite pizza place in the area, and he's a pizza connoisseur. We came here recently to celebrate his birthday and he really enjoyed the pizza. He highly recommends the Sicilian pizza. He literally gobbled it up in seconds. For appetizers we ordered 2 types of fried calamari - one classic and the "Rhode Island" calamari which was sautéed with peppers, cherry tomatoes, and a slightly sweet tomato sauce. The Rhode Island was flavorful and had a nice kick. My side of the table ordered a large Grandma pie, half with eggplant. The crust was thin and crispy just the way I like it. Overall the flavor was good. My husband tried a few bites of the Sicilian and actually liked it better. My nephew knows his pizza. The restaurant is located at a strip mall so I expected a traditional mom and pop pizzeria but instead it looked newly renovated and had a modern but cozy feel. Our waitor seemed a bit green but we had no issues with him. This place is a nice place to take kids and a good option for lunch, as they also offer salads and sandwiches. read more
