This is a classic deli, walls full of tomatoes, pasta, family photos, and citizen of the year awards. (It only takes one interaction to understand why.) you can sit outside in nice weather, but the chit chat inside makes you feel especially welcome. My only regret is we forgot to get cannolis on the way out. (Probably because the portions are huge.) Not far off the highway so you can keep dad feeling like we're still making good time. We'll be back on our next Northeast haul.

I ordered the buffalo wings, garlic knots, a small cheese pizza with vodka sauce instead of marinara & mushrooms, and a cannoli. The wings were not Buffalo, they were a mix between Buffalo and bbq. If I had known, would not have ordered. Did not like the bbq sauce flavor. I also asked for ranch as I despise bleu cheese but alas, I did not get ranch and had to eat my wings plain. Garlic knots were perfect. The pizza tho. Ugh, it was so bad. They made a cheese mushroom pizza with way too much cheese and then put the vodka sauce on top after!!! Like a drunken grandma pie. That's not what I wanted. I asked for, "a cheese pizza with vodka sauce." It was so soggy that it soaked through the bottom of the box. Stayed soggy even after reheating in the oven. I ate half a slice and tossed the rest sadly. I won't be ordering from here again. The cannoli was fine but wouldn't order again either. The only thing I would eat again is the garlic knots. Very disappointing for Jersey pizza.

As a born & raised New Yorker, I feel like I have high standards when it comes to pizza and this one did not disappoint. The Regular Cheese Slice had the right ratio of cheese to tomato sauce, the tomato sauce was mild and not too sweet or acidic which I appreciated, and the dough was perfect! The undercarriage was crispy with an even browning and I loved how thin the crust was. Check them out!

There are some good hole-in-the-wall pizza joints and some GREAT hole-in-the-wall pizza joints…read more This place fell into the "great" category and was actually one of the few times where I did NOT look at Yelp's reviews of a business prior to coming here. And this is none other than "Tom's Delicious Pizza". Located directly on Summit Ave (and tucked in between 17th St/18th St) in the heart of Union City, NJ, this small pizza business has been dishing out mouth watering pizza (by the whole pie or the slice) dating back to 1998 (according to their website). Best of all, they have very generous hours of operation being open Monday-Saturday from 11am-10pm and Sunday from 12-10pm. I came here during the evening of Monday 10/13/2025 at around 6pm. Since it was a cool, windy autumn day, I wanted to find something in close proximity to my Airbnb. This part of Union City is fairly easy to get to (foot, car, transit, etc.) and doesn't get too busy. However, the inside is very small with only a few seats to enjoy your pizza. Their menu is quite extensive for being such a small place. They carry traditional and unique pizzas (in various sizes) as well as wings, fries, tenders, mozzarella sticks, hot dogs, burgers, pasta, and even seafood! However, my lady and I were just craving a piping hot pizza (by the slice) and this place absolutely satisfied our cravings! The guys that worked behind the counter were great as I ordered a slice of their "Chicken & Bacon" while my lady went with a slice of "Pepperoni". Prices here are very reasonable as my slice was only $4 while hers was $3. Once our slices were ready, we proceed to sit down, add our mozzarella & Italian seasoning, and were ready to indulge. I have got to say that this place is legit amazing. Some people say that this best pizza is in NYC but New Jersey is also up there at the top. The slices here are a traditional thin while they did not skimp on the toppings. And the crust had that amazingly consistent texture; buttery, crispy, and absolutely heavenly. All in all, "Tom's Delicious Pizza" is not only delish but the service, prices, portion, selection, and nostalgia of this place made it feel as if I was in an old school neighborhood pizza parlor. And if you just happen to be in Union City, NJ (which is roughly a 15-minute drive to NYC), definitely give them a try. With that said and done, I am giving this small business a perfect five-star rating.

I'm always searching for an excellent place for pizza delivery. Tom's has great reviews all around,…read moreso I was excited to give it a try. I ordered simply - a large pepperoni pizza. It was delivered fairly quickly on bike and arrived in good condition. The pizza itself was very average. Average crust, average flavor, and A LOT of average pepperoni that appeared to be mostly uncooked (it almost seemed like they put the pepperoni on after the pizza came out of the oven?) Tom's seems a reliable neighborhood pizza spot, but not a destination.

Good food, excellent service, and a comfortable neighborhood atmosphere…read more I started with the Eggplant Rollatini, and honestly, it stole the show. It was flavorful, perfectly cooked, and easily my favorite dish of the night. I would absolutely order it again. I ordered the Chicken Parmigiana, which was cooked well. The breading stayed crispy, the cheese was balanced, and it was a satisfying meal. The sauce was good, although it wasn't my favorite part of the dish. Juliana provided wonderful service and surprised me with a complimentary tiramisu, which was a thoughtful touch. The tiramisu was good, but I've definitely had stronger versions elsewhere. There were a couple of small issues during my visit, a noticeable odor near the outdoor seating and a very loud child inside but neither reflected the quality of the food or service. One suggestion would be to replace chipped serving plates. Small presentation details make a difference. I'd definitely come back. It may not be the best Italian restaurant I've visited, but it's a solid neighborhood option, especially if you're nearby.

Disgustingly unprofessional and rude. Ordered pizza and wings at 12pm. One hour later food was still not here. Called and asked for an eta time. Guy on the phone said it'll be here in a few minutes. Half hour passes by. I call again and the same guy that answered before says "I don't know what order you're talking about, we didn't receive any order from you" I proceed to tell him that I just called and he told me that it'll be here in a few minutes and now you're telling me my order doesn't exist...? He then calls me a liar. I don't know who is running this place but this has been the worst experience I've had with a restaurant and they need to buy a Customer service for dummies book. The guy on the phone then says "If you want to replace your order you will have to wait longer because you called and complained and lied" I canceled my order and now I have to wait a week for them to return my money to my bank account. This place is a joke. STAY AWAY read more

The Garlic Knots are incredible. I probably order them 3 times a week. The prices for a pie are very reasonable for the amount of toppings and pizza you get compared to other places. Not to mention, I don't go broke buying a Coca Cola, compared to other restaurants and corner stores. My family has been going there for years and I don't know if I would ever switch pizza places in the area. I recommend the Arizona Chicken Pie. My office is a big fan of their Italian Subs and their Sicilian pie. Overall great NJ/NYC pizza. read more

The main event, the pizza was the worst pizza I've ever had. It was completely soggy on the bottom, to the point where it leaked through the packaging. The sauce was just a can of tomato sauce, it had no flavor at all and the cheese was rubber. It was inedible, unfortunately we threw it out because we couldn't even pop it on the pan to crisp up. The wings were the basic wings you get anywhere in New Jersey. I think they all use the same frozen wings. And the meatballs also had the same sauce as the pizza. It only came with 2 small meatballs. The broccoli was fine, it's hard to mess up broccoli. It's very garlicky though! We did call the restaurant and someone answered but did not talk, I think they were talking to a customer in person.

The woman Jade answered the phone and I asked a few questions on what comes on it, she then got frustrated with the clarification that I was asking because I have family here who's allergic to pork.
