Pizza review: MANCINI PIZZA (East Brunswick, NJ)

[@Jamesnu]

That's high praise comparing it to L'Industrie, but it looked amazing!

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

It reminded me of the old school Brooklyn slices I had growing up there. They market themselves as Brooklyn style and it's aptly named. The staff was very tightly knit and they have a passion for the craft. Sometimes, that's all that matters.

The crust looks amazing

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

Fuhgettaboutit... better than Joe's.

[@genebigs1749]

Looks awesome. Thanks a lot. Now I'm starving. Another great review, Antonio!

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

I had 3 slices and I had to refrain from watching my video because I wanted more. Thanks Gene.

Now that looks like a very satisfying pizza. Sometimes the ‘more is more’ approach is just fine. I really like the look of that crust and I can tell just looking at the sauce and cheese that even with both of those ingredients being heavily applied ,they’re still well-balanced. If that place was in my neighborhood, I’d probably be putting on plenty of weight in a hurry.

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

Fasting is the key. Or eating light. I had nothing but bananas since my last meal yesterday, for about 24 hours, no food, and a few bananas and some almonds. I agree, this was one of those kitchen sink, making a statement pizzas. And it was quality, unlike many of those big cheesy, greasy pies you find on the Jersey shore boardwalks. Very tightly knit staff I should add. I recommend following them on Instagram.

@@pizzareviewsonthego also it was great to see you get out of town. Seems like it’s been a while since you’ve been down to Jersey.

Antonio, I am a long time viewer, but seldomly leave a message. I've always loved your content. Although I miss the opening drone (City) footage of some of your earlier videos from years ago; to nitpick a little bit. Looked like a couple great slices. I'm over in fly over country so I'm quite jealous lol. Keep up the good work, looking forward to your next video!

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

Nice to hear from you. I have been trying to keep the videos shorter and to the point and so I no longer focus on the cinematic aspect of the videos. A lot of my viewers kept asking me to just get to the point and focus on the pizza. I admit, I miss the cinematography. I loved making films along with the pizza reviews.

[@debraj8665]

OMG and I can see the steam I love a nice hot slice. I'll take two slices please. Antonio It is true when you eat a plain slice you can really tell how good it is. I remember this slice shop the slice was eatable but I had to drown it with oregano and garlic powder.

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

Ehh, that was the case here. Little to no oregano, just cheese, sauce and bread. And it delivered. They say the oregano was added to NY style pizza because the Italians didn't like the tomatoes here in the U.S. And so they had to dress it up with spices. Of course a lot has changed since then.

Thanks for the correction. I edited the title. Jersey is confusing lol

[@dwaynewladyka577]

Good looking pizzas. Love the cheese pull. Cheers, Antonio! 👍🏻👍🏻✌️

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

So good

[@garychaiken808]

Great job Antonio. Thank you 😊

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

Thanks as well !

[@normanwyatt8761]

You're getting closer to the pizza that I would call the HOLY GRAIL, Antonio. That pie isn't cheap and neither is the ingredients and knowledge it took to put that diamond in the rough together. We need 3-D Smell-o-vision for us unfortunate people who can only look and drool at that perfect crust and that volcanic oozing tomato red sauce and flowing melted cheese...OOOH WHEE ! Seeing where that beauty was created only proves what I've been seeing all along is the location where it was made. Yes, another New Jersey Pie gets the gold like in the Culinary Olympics. Man, I really love seeing you savoring a great looking and tasting medal winning pizza. Chow !

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

I had no idea this pizza won a medal... thanks Norman for the enthusiastic comments.

[@thomasbello221]

That regular looked delicious. There are times I do like a regular with that much cheese on it especially if the crust is well made. would have never known a place like that thanks for the review will definitely seek out if in New Jersey.

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

It was a nicely balanced pizza, despite the heavy toppings. It tasted great.

[@danielj3010]

Loving this pizza.

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

I'm still dreaming about it.

[@edis4ut287]

Was that a four cheese blend slice? Pepperoni marg looking slice was right up my ally! Both were heavy and solid.Take it the sauce was above par. Not too sweet?

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

Sauce was fantastic. Not sure if it's a cheese blend, but man, was it good. I'm still dreaming about this pizza. I'll be back for the Sicilians.

[@toddspiegel7704]

My hometown.. very very good !!

[@lousekoya1803]

Will you ever do the Wilwood boardwalk some day !

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

I did Asbury Park, and a few in Point Pleasant. Maybe one day I'll get down to Wildwood.

[@MrJohn33751]

I enjoyed the video!

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

John this is your type of pizza.

[@Kment011]

Good review, but you really should have gotten their Marco Polo pizza! I was planning on stopping by and the way back from the Jersey shore but ended up going somewhere else because it was less out of the way.

[@LchaimPutz]

🍕👍✌️

[@rbiv5]

I have to find out for myself...to me it looks way over-topped and over-cheesed. I trust you, though..especially with the crust. Congrats on 7k subscribers!

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

Thanks RBI. I somewhat agree, like I mentioned in the video, they could've scaled it back on the cheese a bit. But as long as nothing slides off and the crust can hold it, I don't mind. I think that ninja turtle cheese pull gives off a bad impression, but the taste was great.

[@NoahEats]

Only a pro can negotiate that cheese from getting mixed with the beard!

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

Yeah... not easy....should be an olympic sport...

[@CigarKingASMR]

Health all good now?

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

Yeah, doing a lot of 24 hour fasting, lost 20 lbs. I am maintaining the weight.

[@CigarKingASMR]

@@pizzareviewsonthego fasting so good!!! Once you’re used to it 24 hrs is a breeze! For me atleast. I’m actually doing a 60 hr fast as we speak lol Tuesday 8 am is when I eat next

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

@@CigarKingASMR I've done 48 hours. And I agree, when you get used to it, it's so much easier. It truly is the sole reason why I got healthy and am able to eat pizza again. Thanks for asking.

[@CigarKingASMR]

@@pizzareviewsonthego awesome!! So Glad you can enjoy pizza again!

[@victormalgieri7733]

Just had 2 slices it had no crisp at hill no air ration ,and the guys in there don't even know that u were there scoring their pi,za.

[@Funkylover-sl7ew]

idk how jersey could stick to old school pizza while ny pizza cant nyc needs to bring back good crispy pizza only brooklyn is on top in ny

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

Only Brooklyn? You must not get around the city much?

[@Funkylover-sl7ew]

@@pizzareviewsonthego i mean i had city pizza but bk is one of my favs the city dods have good food tho

[@pizzareviewsonthego]

@@Funkylover-sl7ew Manhattan has great spots but more sparse in between, there's a lot of bad pizza there too. Brooklyn is definitely the pizza mecca and it gets better as you move up to Queens, and also toward Staten Island and East Jersey.
