    Super Bowl  special

    Amazing quick and efficient service, food is always amazing and delicious, they never disappoint.

    Plain pie

    So this place on the outside looks like it hasn't been updated in a long long time. Which maybe true. But no matter what time you go inside, it is always bustling. I was craving their chicken and shrimp salad and was not disappointed. It is big enough for two. Comes with 6 seasoned shrimp and this chicken that is marinated so well on top of greens, onions (lots, and forgot to ask to hold back), olives, tomatoes and cucumbers. The marinade on the chicken is so good, you do not even need dressing on the salad. We also ordered a plain pie, which I don't think I have had their pizza before. It was a good solid pie. The cheese to sauce ratio on point. Good amount of sweetness to the sauce, and the crust was chewy yet crispy. Very satisfied.

    Salad bread was stale and hard. Have to my dog because it was so hard and not fresh

    Food has been horrible. Sal's bread was stale and hard. This place used to be my Friday night dinner when I was a student at TCNJ.

    If you are looking for a unique slice of pizza around Ewing area or just want to grab a slice of a plain this is the right place to be. I personally like to visit this place to enjoy their famous TACO pizza! Yes you heard that right, it is pizza that has taco ingredients on it. And if you are a spicy lover they will top it with some hot sauce for you. Pizza city staff is very friendly and always helpful! I also noticed they hired an extra worker that just walks around the floor to make sure you have your orders catered on time! The place is usually very busy so be prepared to wait for your order for a little bit. *Each pizza box comes with a coupon that you can cut out and I believe after collecting 10 of them you may get a free plain pizza pie! Great marketing tool. Thank you for reading this and I hope you find this helpful.

    Cold soggy chicken sandwich

    Ordered a crispy chicken sandwich for delivery today. Couldn't have been more disappointed. I got the delivery hour and 15 minutes later. Sandwich was soggy French fries were disgusting. And paid $20 for a sandwich and fries. What a waste of $20. Threw the food right to the trash everything was cold and just not edible . Will not recommend this place at all

    TWO SLICE LUNCH REVIEW Stopped in to Special Pizza City on Olden Avenue Extension in Ewing, NJ, today for a quick lunch on a beautiful day. Plenty of parking, but a surprisingly small footprint inside with tables crowded together requiring side sliding to reach those against the wall. I asked for a regular slice and one Brooklyn square, well done. Order taken with a smile. Seven dollars and change. Looked good on the paper plates. Bigger than average. The undercarriage of the plain slice was thick and held the topside firmly. First bite was a heavy crunch through a thick crust and formidable layer of cheese. Nice, but neither the crust, cheese, nor red sauce layer had much flavor. The balance of cheese and sauce was out of whack, with way too much yellow and too little red. Then, half way through the wedge, the molten cheese separated from the base and slid in a gooey mass on to the plate. End of that mess. The Brooklyn square was better, but not enough to save the overall experience​. It did not fall apart and had a somewhat better flavor profile, with fresher mozza and basil added on top. Still, the taste was weaker than available in better Italian tomato pie parlors. Trenton has some great pizza shops. This is not one of them.

    Chicken wings

    I was not disappointed, I went to get a slice of pizza and lost my mind, they had such a variety. I chose the Taco slice and it was delicious. It's one of their specialty pizzas, boy was it good and it was a healthy slice not skimpy. Check it out they also have steak sandwiches, salads, chicken, shrimp, tuna, Stromboli's and on and on. Don't go there on an empty stomach, you'll be buying everything.

    I ordered the $35 pizza special with tax it comes to $40.16.

    I'll never order from here again!!!!! $35 special comes to $40.16. They over charged me $8. I called my bank and there are no fees for using my card. So I called back and they said I must be crazy cause they only charged 40.16. Then a guy in the background says oh they must be drunk. I canceled my order and asked for my money back. But he said go ahead and dispute it. They are thieves. DONT ORDER FROM THIS PLACE AND IF YOU DO MAKE SURE TO CHECK WHAT THRY ARE CHARGING YOU!!!!!

    Since I'm a Pizza Connoisseur, I put this historic Trenton staple to the test. I'm so glad that I…read moregot to experience this place! The pizza selections were plentiful and the staff were as pleasant as can be. I even got to meet the famous owner, Giuseppe, who was very endearing and welcoming. One particular slice did catch my eye and it was the chunky sausage slice! One thing that grinds my gears is when I see sliced sausage on my pizza.. but this place gets IT! They had generous chunks of sausage on top of the pizza. The crust was just right, not burnt nor too soft. The cheese was just right and the sauce was not acidic and had a certain sweetness to it. The place is super clean and spacious and customers never stopped coming in for their fix! Definitely will make this my go to spot for any pizza cravings in the Trenton area!

    Not a fan of this pizza at all. I ordered two slices of the sausage, which tasted authentic but the…read moreslice was served lukewarm (even though it was placed in the oven) and the cheese didn't taste like real mozzarella cheese. I'm almost certain they bought that cheese from Temu. Real mozzarella cheese is bright white not off white. Definitely not a place I'd return. I'll be in Brooklyn tomorrow so I think I'll find a great pizza joint. I will say, the bottom of Covello's slice was crispy, which was great. Service was meh and definitely had better in other family owned restaurants. Anyway, I'm glad the locals love it cuz I don't.
