Customer Reviews

We did takeout pizza. We ordered a Large Italy's Best Special Pizza which had tomato sauce and Mozzarella cheese with Sausage, Mushrooms, Ham, Pepperoni, Black Olives, and Hot Peppers ($26.31 with tax). The car smelled heavenly. I forgot to take a picture of the full pizza but did have two slices left (reheated) to show you. The toppings were abundant and all the way to the crust which is hard to find lately in other restaurant pizzas. So the look and the smell of the pizza had us all the drive home. BUT the taste was so delicious and filling. Each bite was filled with all of the ingredients not just one or two of them. The hot peppers which are not abundant on each slice thankfully add a new dimension to that pizza. They add a burst of spice and hot to the pizza but not the entire slice which is good. I would have preferred the hot peppers without the stems and the seeds though. This is a delicious pizza because the ingredients are abundant and the flavor is outstanding. Highly recommend you try one!!!!

Just attended my son's engagement party. Everything there was delightful . The food was delicious... my family around me had different dishes and penne vodka seemed to be the favorite The room was a good size and so nicely decorated for the holidays. Service was great! When I return, the first thing on my list is your calamari. Thank you for making his and his fiancee's party a memorable one.

Love this place. Awesome food, terrific service. Any time we go it's busy, so it takes a little while to get each course. I like it that way. No rush, enjoy your meal.

We got take-out with delivery twice in one week from Italy's Best, for the first time. The dinners were delicious and with so much food! They arrived quickly, and piping hot. Their menu has so many choices, it's hard to decide. We were so impressed, the next night we ordered pizza. We were equally satisfied then too! It was delicious and also very hot, and arrived quickly too. I can't wait to go back and visit my mom to sample Italy's Best menu again!

I am lucky that I am able to travel out of our area every now and again. When I come home? I order out anything from Italy's Best. Sometimes pizza, sandwiches or full meals. (Weird, but when I am out of the area and ppl learn that I am from Jersey? They always suggest their local pizza place.) I have so many other suggestions besides the images I posted below... more images to come.
