Don't let the picture fool you, this was perfectly crispy and hot. Still, that needed a small box to take home. The crew was great. Even suggested a 2L instead of our usual 2x 20oz, which I appreciated after a long day. This will be on the repeat list next time we're out this way!

I had shrimp parmagianio over linguine, my one friend had sausage, onions and peppers over linguine and my other friend had chicken saltimbocca.

LOL…read more I bring my friends from Brick and Toms River here a few times a month because we have been doing a "Pizza Tour" of NJ and think The Sauce has the BEST Sicilian pie. Light and airy base and the Jersey Devil with some Mike's Hot Honey is our favorite. Gemini is another favorite and love when they "experiment" and put out new pies, crusts, etc. The sauce is sweeter than I usually like but it is delicious mixed with the other ingredients. The owner and his brother and the rest of the crew there are friendly, engaging and give really good recommendations for not only pizza......but they have other food there. LOL Must go and try it. Small interior, a few tables/seats and in the nice weather there is seating in the front of the pizzeria as well.

Gianni's Pizzeria to the rescue!!!! After having a…read moreterrible experience at an earlier restaurant, we decided to go back home to eat. Anyway, right before we got on the Garden State Parkway, we came across Gianni's Pizzeria. Anyway, we ordered two plain and two pepperoni pizza slices. The crust was thin and crispy. The pepperoni pizza was outstanding. I never had such excellent pepperoni pizza! The pieces of pepperoni were much smaller than I've ever had. The pepperoni quality was excellent. In addition to my delight, they had Coca-Cola. Some places only have Pepsi. Customer service was very good in this small pizzeria. All staff were masks. The two indoor tables were spaced more than 6 feet apart. We ordered an antipasto to go. The antipasto was just okay. We thought the meats were a little too salty. Anyway, if we're ever back in the area, we would definitely stop in for their wonderful pepperoni pizza. Gianni's has street and a private back parking lot.
