Barstool Pizza Review - Ralph's Pizza (Nutley,NJ)

Ah,....my hometown. Ralphs is legendary. Pick up only. No delivery. They run that town.

[@YazzFlute]

Sigh... chains run my hometown.

[@ArrowheadPride4Ever]

Nah bro it's Nutley it's not even good enough for a small little pizza shop to "run that town" that town is as big as my car. Besides pretty sure that Indian deli owner who got the garbage tipped on him runs that town

[@anthonyj810]

@@YazzFlute Same but some chains are actually very good. Hungry howies, jets, cottage inn. But nothing will beat giordanos in chicago and detroit. Very expensive but still worth the price, $25 for a large cheese deep dish and $27 for 1 topping. It's worth the trip to detroit or chicago just to try it because you will never have deep dish that good anywhere else.

Glad to see that you confirmed what most Nutley folk always say, Ralph's is flat out good pizza. You gotta figure is a town as small as Nutley that has 10 pizza joints and 9 of them deliver and the one that does not deliver dominates the pizza trade it MUST be good.

[@nikkowood4476]

Scotto's was the best before it closed in 2016

[@philipb8892]

I have been going to Ralph's over 60 years and Pat the 3rd owner does an excellent job with the help of Gus. I remember the original owner Ralph with his marine haircut and the second owner Mike who was one of the nicest and most pleasant person I ever met in the restaurant business. We drive 20 plus miles for a Ralph"s pizza. Now I crave a ralphs pizza.

Just finished my pie from ralphs...pizzaland blows the TITS off Ralph's. Ate it twice, disappointed both times

[@jimduggan8962]

I haven't had Pizzaland since they went under new ownership and raised their prices. Used to be able to walk in and get $1 slice or $8 pie. New owners raised it to like $10 or $11. I'm gonna pick up a pie from there soon though. Star is more expensive and I personally don't think its worth it for me to go out of my way and overpay. I do like it though. There's a place I normally go to that I find better than all those places. I've only been to Ralph's once and it was good but didn't knock my socks off. I did think out of the 3 mentioned it was 1. Star 2. Ralphs 3. Pizzaland. I'm kinda surprised Dave never reviewed Pizzaland because it has the Sopranos fame and not a bad drive from the city either.

Ralph's is very good but it seems as if they really pump-in the MSG, which you can discern if you have a discriminating palate. I was there 2 weeks ago, it's very good but not as good as the STAR,in Orange, Santillo's in Elizabeth,, The Reservoir in Boonton, Maruca's in Seaside Heights or Benny Tudino's in Hoboken.

(I know Lexington doesn’t sound so exiting, but Its like nothing else, when I was pregnant it was all I thought about) and Harvard House of Pizza in Cambridge. Pinocchio's Pizza & Subs, in Harvard Sq. (has been around forever, my moms favorite pizza since the 90’s and my moms a pizza junkie) Pllleaaaase.

[@AKI111]

If you are from MA you should check out Pittsfield. South St. Pizza House/Tyler St. Pizza House... They are not the same, South St is a little more crispy and thin, which id say is more you. I don't know if you would like though as they do the party cut and it is a long drive out of your way. There are others too, there's Lanesboro Pizza house different but good and another on Tyler Street Pizza World (closer to Dalton) that I felt had great pie, I like the thicker crust though. Don't get me wrong I know a good slice of thin too, so if you get in the mood to check out Tangleood and the Berkshires on a nice Indian Summer day, consider this your heads up. :)...o
