I picked up a pie a couple years ago, it was awesome. First off, this is take out only, but you can bring your pie across the street to a bar and have a couple of beers while chowing down. The other thing is the oven; look at the arch that lets the heat go up and curl down the sides to the floor of the oven, the flow of the hot air helps to crisp the crust. I prefer a well done pizza with a crispy crust. The owner mentioned this oven was originally meant for coal, but as he explained, his father died at 57 and he attributed it to the coal dust and fumes. Many years ago, he converted the oven to gas. Anyone passing through on the NJ Turnpike, it's right off the Elizabeth exit (12??), it's well worth a detour. This guy is passionate about his craft, he deserves to be open 4 days a week and live life on his terms.

Had Santillo’s for first time yesterday. I ate a large pie. Two slices left for breakfast today. I’m a new regular.

Guy is literally a moron. He might make a great pizza But his amount of self centeredness is unrivaled. I literally would bet his personal life is shambles and he has zero friends. Everything this guy says is cringeworthy.

I love people who are passionate about what they do, this gentleman is the last of a dying breed🙏

[@robertprice6758]

And yet only an 8.3

[@CampariMM]

That pie was cooked to perfection based on Dave’s own preference. If you look up pizza in the Portnoy Pizza Dictionary, you’d see a picture of Al Santillo. How he gave that an 8.3 is beyond me. He was shorted 1.0 in my opinion. That probably should be a 9.3. Cmon Dave...Give Al a do-over.

[@SirCJ11]

8.7 is what I guessed

[@CampariMM]

@@VanquishedAgain Perhaps. But the key to any great pizza is the dough/crust. And just based on eye test, Santillos looks awesome 👏

[@freshdc]

The sauce is not really great in my opinion

[@diggergeensen860]

I heard the sauce is shitty and taking the overall pizza experience down a notch

[@freshdc]

@diggergeensen860 that's the truth I had a pie a month ago

[@tberman2386]

Al is amazing! I ventured in there one May Friday in 2018. There was so much to choose from, I asked Al to choose for me! I had the pleasure of waiting in the shop and talking with him and his lovely wife! He made me the most delicious Sicilian, well done with Pepperoni. It was amazing!! Al is an artist and has amazing pride in his craft. Santillo's is worth the trip!

If you find a hidden bandaid in your pizza you win an old pants mop.

[@tonys8613]

I remember when they just made bread. My brother-in-law and sister had an Italian market in Peters Town and got their bread delivery from them. Later they began making the best Sicilian pie ever. My mother would send me there to buy dough for her own baking. Legend

Wanted to come back to look at the inside of the store now that I've looked at the fire damage. Vey sad. Glad people are rallying to rebuild the building and oven.

[@pushallthebuttons9009]

This is mythical content. Thank you for sharing this for the world to see. Holy moly - this is probably the best informative video about pizza i have ever seen in my entire life. I wish i had more words to explain how much this means to me that I appreciate this content. Thank you from the bottom of my aching soul Mr. Portnoy. This is the top of top tier content KZbin needs to be pushing to the front line. Respect & thank you so much sir. Simply mind-blowing amazing showcase. I will rewatch this many times for the vibe, i can only imagine what it must of been like being in your shoes being there. Historic content for the ages. Bless.

[@gordonshumway7465]

I don't think you know what "mythical" means. Also what does "must of" mean? Sad.

[@hawkeyenelson8762]

What an absolute legend of a man! The people and the stories really are the best part of the pizza reviews.

[@dennisconstantine7469]

He is correct. The old Italians were perfectionists with ALL their food creations. Had to be a certain way or id didn't measure up. It is the Italian way.

[@reidhanson4755]

These die hard Italians are such a fucking inspiration. What a people. All so proud of their family and their business (their father and mother and their sons and daughters) and the products they put out. Not every Italian guy is out there making pizza but that doesn't matter. No matter what they're doing they bring their A game and I love it.

[@ricksundberg5659]

If I ever go to New Jersey you better believe I will eat at this place. The guy takes pride in his work, it's honorable.

Hoping for the best for santillos after the fire they just had. Hopefully they're he's able to rebuild and come back from it! 🙏

[@darrellbaum2615]

That oven is amazing, it puts flavor into the pizza that can't be reproduced. It's like a good old smoker, it puts a flavor in the meat that can never be reproduced.
