BBQ pizza is out of this world. Went there for cheesesteak which was equally good . Will definitely go back read more

Salerno's Pizzeria - Looks good - Pizza Near Me - Hazlet, New Jersey

Pizza is amazing and customer service is really good. We had to wait for personal pies but they were very cool about it.

Living only 5 minutes from Salerno's and their exceptional pizza has made this my go-to pizza place. They have the best vodka and pesto slices I have ever eaten. I also really like their pesto chicken salad when I am not in the mood for pizza. My family also really enjoys their pasta primavera, chicken parm roll, and sauteed broccoli (especially my dog!) The people who work there are also very friendly and try their best to make sure you get the best service. They do get really busy though when it gets to the weekends, and they offer delivery! Their prices are extremely reasonable as well. The only thing I would avoid ordering from here are chicken wings, because even though they have them on the menu they don't actually serve them and they end up just being plain chicken with Franks Red hot sauce on the side. Other than that, everything on the menu is worth a try! read more

Awesome pizza! We stopped here on our way from LBI to home in Boston and it was easy on/off from the Garden State and a quick meal while traveling. Chicken parm pizza was great and the cheese was very "NY", which I loved being a NYer living in Boston now. read more

I ordered takeout for the first time here because I was really in the mood for gnocchi with pesto cream sauce and it was irresistibly delicious. For 10$ !?! That's a steal to me most places would probably charge more. The amount they give you for takeout is a lot...I had a good amount of leftovers for the next day. I would definitely order from here again. read more

Salerno's Pizzeria - Pizza Near Me - Hazlet, New Jersey

I grew up in the area, so I've been to pretty much all the pizza places around here. Salerno's is by far the best. I love the margarita and vodka pies. The sauce tends to be a bit sweeter, which I like. Never disappoints! read more

Super rude people answering the phone. You close in 45 mins girl, chill out with the attitude! I tried to order wings and a salad and she had major attitude like I was asking her to make me 17 pies or something. Never again will I go there. read more

The pizza here is the only thing that is good, every single chicken dish or dinner plate is inedible as if it has a pound of salt in it. I gave them several tries over the years to see if they changed and they have not. Just ordered their chicken saltinbocca, and SALTinbocca it sure was, I ate 2 bites and threw it away, no way was there any Madeira wine in it, pure chicken broth and salt. Horrible. Go for the pizza, leave the entree's for somewhere else read more

First, the prices on their on-line menu are lower than the prices on the printed menu at the restaurant. The garlic knots were seeping in oiliness and extremely salty. They were inedible. The on-line price was $1.50. I was charged $2.25 as per the printed menu. They charged an additional .50 for a very small container of dipping sauce. The fried calamari appetizer was extremely overcooked. It was like chewing rubber and was also rather salty. It came with a very small container of sauce. The on-line price was $9.95. I was charged $10.95 as per the printed menu price. The gourmet meat lovers pizza was a dieters delight. The sausage, pepperoni and meatballs were sliced paper thin and were very sparsely distributed on the pie. There was not even one slice of bacon which was in such small pieces it was hardly visible. This was not worth the price of $19.00. There was barely a dollars' worth of meat on the pie. I would not recommend this restaurant at all. Very disappointing! read more

Update to my initial review. The owner contacted me an offered a full refund for the error. This is exceptional customer service and I appreciate them taking responsibility for the mistake. I thank Lucien (owner) very much for taking care of this issue so quickly. read more

Heard great things so my family decided to order for a Christmas party. Food came on time, but we were missing food. When we called back, we were asked "what do you want us to do about it?". They were short and impolite on the phone about food we had ordered and did not receive and we were told that there was not enough meat on hand to make more than 8 meatballs. Food was a 7/10 and the service ruined the fun. read more

Best pizza in the area no doubt about it! Never been disappointed coming here. Definitely recommend

i been going to salernos for so long! i love it here they know my order right away which is great i always get spaghetti or chicken farm sub amazing! Very affordable and really recommended there chicken parm, meatball pizza and there salads!! read more

Ordered 2 pizzas on fathers day, they weren't delivered in the best shape, but the owner was more than understanding and sympathetic. I was paid back in full and given 2 new pies. Its refreshing to see a business nowadays that appreciates each and every customer. Customer service goes a long way read more

I eat here far too often, so obviously I love their pizza! My favorites are grandma slice & spinach artichoke slice. They have a nice assortment of slices as well as baked ziti, chicken parm, salads, soups, and lots more. Clean spot & comfortable decor. Definitely stop by if you enjoy good Italian food. read more

The Buffalo Chicken is legendary. The garlic knot chicken/eggplant parm sandwich is incredible too.

My husband, my adult son, and I came here for dinner tonight. Not fancy, but the food was great. We had garlic knots and meatballs as an appetizer. The garlic knots were yummy but the sauce was amazing. The meatballs were huge, about the size of a baseball and again floating in a bowl of that amazing sauce. The pizza was one of the best I've ever had. They had that balance of lots of sauce where the cheese covers and kind of floats on top. It comes dow to plenty of cheese and plenty of sauce. Yummy..... Forgot the antipasto salad, it was fresh and good and had lots cheese, and Italian ham in it...delish. read more

Yum! Yum! Hubby brought home pies a couple weeks ago and we have all been hooked. We just Drove all the way from Jackson. As many pizza places are here....No regret. Their Pizza crust is the bomb! And the chicken franchise sub was amazing. The Italian bread and regular mozzarella made it just perfect!!! The owner and his staff are very pleasant. Cant wait to try the next item read more

A regular at Salerno's. Great pizza, entres and sandwiches. Great group of people that always know my name when my myself or my family eat in or take home. Love this place real deal pizza and more. read more

Their pizza is fantastic! The girl that answers the phone however is not the most enthusiastic when she takes your order...by her tone you would think your interrupting her by placing an order. God forbid you ask what is in a dish. Still in all absolutely love there pizza and salads buffalo chicken is out of this world! read more

Fast service! The pizza slices were big, very tasteful! Good sauce on the slices. I had two speciality slices very good combinations . They accommodated our group of like 10 and we didn't have to wait long for the food! read more

Wow. If for any strange reason you're ever in Hazlet.... You NEED this place. Small and tucked away, I found it with the help of Yelp. It was so close to my hotel and got pretty decent reviews. It's small on the inside, but we had plenty of seats to choose from. The menu is big, and everything sounded amazing. However, the slices are what drew me in. They had me drooling. I decided to order a small chicken pesto salad and a slice of the chicken pesto thin crust that was Sicilian style. The person I was with ordered a MONSTER deep dish slice of buffalo chicken pizza and a cheesesteak roll (which was essentially a smaller version of a buttery Stromboli). Every bit of food was extremely extremely delicious. I've eaten a lot of pizza in my day, and I'm pretty sure that may have been the best I've ever had. The cheesesteak roll was so savory...even my salad smothered in pesto dressing was epic. I'm pissed I don't have a place like this back in Philly. read more

Finally a good New York style italian pizza place close to home! Easily the best pizza place around the neighborhood now. Great crust, good selection of toppings including fresh garlic. Good dinners too. Reasonable prices. read more

The worst costumer service I've ever experienced, your costumers should be your number one priority whether their just ordering a "$10 dollar salad" or and $100 order! Your delivery time is outrageous for a 5 min drive down the road. Guess you get what you pay for! $10 salads a $10 salad, maybe I should ask for a $20 salad to receive any type of quality. SHITTY FOOD SHITTIER STAFF read more

Some of the best pizza I've had since moving here from Brooklyn. Order their vodka pizza, you won't be disappointed.

By far the worst pizza I've ever had in my life. We ordered a large plain pie and it took over an hour to get delivered to us. I was at my friend's house and his roommate said this place was close by (It's about a 5 minute drive). The cheese was weird and plasticky tasting and the pizza was cold, hard, and really dry. I hadn't eaten all day so I was starving and ate a slice. Couldn't eat anymore but I was still hungry and unsatisfied from this disgusting pizza. read more

Since moving to Hazlet back in 1994 from NYC my wife and I have always been in search of great pizza in NJ. It was always an uphill battle until Salerno's opened , their are a hand full of pizza shops we've found over the years but they always required some driving but Salerno's is literally a 5 minute walk from our house and we couldn't be happier for it. I'm a huge fan of their buffalo pizza but my go to and stand by has been their Grand Ma slice. Their crust is crusty and their sauce is just sweet enough , plus the service is personal and definitely a labor of love for it's owner Lou. My wife likes their rice balls and Sicilian slices , the salads "if your trying to behave" are excellent specifically the Chicken pesto salad. If you've not been here, go here "NOW!",wait outside until they're open and just know your going to be satisfied with some deliciousness or arrested for stalking by Hazlet's best ! NJOY !

Wow very impressed. Stopped here on the way down the shore via yelp. Ordered a buffalo chicken salad, margarita pizza, and Sicilian pizza. I also picked up one of the eggplant Parms on the counter (a lil too garlicky for me). Great value and a very satisfying meal read more

Ordered two slices person behind me got theres 1st and mines still was soggy and cheese wasnt melted horrible expierience never again

I'm in California right now, and I find myself occasionally wishing for pizza from back home. Only living in California do I realized how blessed we are in the Tri-State area with amazing pizzerias. This one has always been close to my heart, and I miss it. Buffalo Chicken Pizza Slice. Or really a slice of anything here. read more

Let me start by saying, this pizzeria has the WORST customer service I've ever experienced. Let me explain my experience today: I called 12 times, couldn't get through the line because it was "busy" (it's 2015, splurge on some call waiting). Then when I did get through I was put on hold for 6 minutes. Then when I finally get through to place my order after calling back AGAIN, the young girl I ordered with replied with "okay hold on one second" with every little thing I said. BUT she at least got the order right because when I asked her to read it back, she got the order right... Okay. When I arrived at the pizza place there were 9 workers, outnumbering customers completely (why was that phone line so busy?) the worker behind the counter made a comment..."tell whoever ordered the coleslaw that we don't have it, this is a pizza place", meanwhile they sell macaroni salad with their sandwiches,tell me why it's such a far fetched idea to sell coleslaw? And maybe they could train their employees a little better so they could inform the customer when taking the order in the first place. Even with all this my friend tipped them 6 bucks because we used a coupon, which in the past we've been looked at sideways for using (if you don't want customers to use coupons, don't print them - they're really the only reason why we come anymore) so when we handed them 6 dollars the response was "what's the six bucks for?" Obviously, they're not giving good customer service, hence not knowing how to receive a tip. Get the hint! When we got the food home, the order was still screwed up. The food is good, go there if you want to be treated like garbage. Sincerely, finding a new pizzeria (which there are plenty of good ones around town, that probably sell coleslaw, with at least mediocre service. read more

This place is very good. I like a crust that had a crunch and I like a staff that is friendly. This place has both of those things.

Great place and great food! If you are in the area and looking for a great Italian place you must try. The owners are always around to ensure quality. read more

Their buffalo chicken pizza is the best I've ever had. Not only is it a really good pizza, but the buffalo chicken itself is amazing. And the margherita pizza has a sauce that will surely please. read more

Friendly and quick. Great food, tons of options. They offer delivery which I loved. The menu has a ton of variety. Anything from Italian dinners to pizzas and great appetizers. If you're looking for a solid Friday night meal, this is your spot. read more

Ordered from Salerno's yesterday. My family of 6 had 3 paninos, a small personal pan pizza, and chicken Parmesan dinner. It arrived within 30-40 minutes to our surprise. On my son's second slice of pizza he discovered a short brown hair. Not 2 minutes later my mother in law pulled a 3 inch strand of blond hair out of her mouth that was imbedded in her chicken cutlet panino. The food went into the garbage after that and I made a phone call to Salerno's. One of the front girls answered the phone and I was quickly put through to the owner/manager (?) who then argued that the 3 inch blond hair couldn't have been from his workers because they are all Mexican with short black hair but that the hair on the pizza could possibly be his own because he sliced it. He offered to remake the food to which I replied, "ABSOLUTELY not, we do not want any more contaminated food from you." The owner/manager repeatedly denied that the hair could belong to his staff but what about the girl who answered the phone? Maybe she has blond hair and could have been the culprit. I ended the conversation by stating that we will never order form Salerno's again and we would tell our friends and family about our experience to which he replied that I couldn't do that because it was slander. PS I wrote this review and an hour after our disastrous dinner the Salerno's delivery driver returned our money and apologized on behalf of the establishment. Thank you for our money back. read more

The pizza seems a bit overrated to me. It was just "meh". Maybe it's better when it's fresh out of the oven, but I had it delivered. By the time it got here, it was soggy and lukewarm. The wings were breaded which I didn't know beforehand. They were also soggy and the skin was rubbery and not crispy on the outside like wings should be. I guess I should have specifically asked them to make the wings crispy. The mozzarella sticks were good, but I guess it's pretty hard to screw those up. On the plus side, the delivery guy seemed like a nice kid. He was very patient with me as I was trying to pay him, hold the screen door open, take the food, and keep my dog from running out of the door, all at the same time. In the past, I've ordered pasta dishes, salads, and sandwiches from this place and they were all really good. I guess it's just hit or miss. read more

Pizza not cooked, sauce terrible and oily cheese. other than that the seagulls enjoyed it. read more

True authentic Italian pizza! Perfect every time. I've never been disappointed by their food. Everything I try blows me away. Fast, delicious, satisfying. read more

This is probably one of the best pizza places in hazlet, but they never have a variety of slices after 6 o clock. I wanted to go get margarita slices and a square slice and they had neither! And the lady that works up front is not the nicest, she is always yelling at customers, she would not work at my resteraunt! read more
