Osteria Procaccini, Kingston, NJ





Date: 10/12/2017
Location: Kingston, NJ
Pizza Ordered: Margherita
Website: www.osteriaprocaccini.com/

Osteria is a small, intimate Italian restaurant in Kingswood very close to the canal. There is a decent amount of parking both on the street and behind the restaurant. Now I actually haven't even been inside the restaurant because they have a beautiful and elegant outdoor seating area behind the restaurant where my girlfriend and I were seated and served. The service was excellent and the waitresses were very attentive. The restaurant is BYOB but also has a selection of Maine Root sodas that are delicious.

We decided to order an appetizer of bruschetta (the sundried tomato pesto) which is some of the best I've ever had. The tomato pesto spread was truly delicious. The Margherita pizza was also very tasty. The sauce is rich in flavor and I really liked the soft and tasty crust. There was quite a bit of basil used, but that was no problem in my opinion, as I thought it only added to the flavor. To top off the meal, we decided to try the cannolo rollatini. It fell apart easily but really satisfied my sweet tooth. I will definitely be taking my girlfriend out to this restaurant again in the coming months. Great food and a lovely atmosphere.

Italy's Restaurant & Pizzeria, Phillipsburg, NJ

Date: 6/21/2019 Location: Phillipsburg, NJ Pizza Ordered: Plain, White, and Sicilian Website: https://italysrestaurant.com/#home Italy's is a small local pizza joint that has the appearance of your typical neighborhood pizzeria. Lovely paintings of Italy adorn the walls and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. I was extra hungry, so I went with my usual plain slice and added a white slice and a Sicilian slice. The meal came with complimentary bread that was pleasantly fluffy and had a good mix of herbs and spices on it. The plain had pretty decent sauce and cheese and the charred crust was good, but a bit burnt in some places. The white was very fluffy with a good helping of cheese. The square slice had really great sauce and parmesan and a nice amount of fluff to the base. Overall, I would say Italy's puts out a good average slice of pizza.

Sitting between College Avenue Campus and a large population of off-campus housing, this pizzeria is one of the most popular in the Rutgers are. I've had many friends express their opinions to me that PJ's Grill is among the best pizza in New Brunswick. There is more room for seating than most pizzerias in the area and there is usually a large selection to choose from when deciding on a slice to eat. While the establishment lacks in parking, there is some available on Easton Avenue and the nearby streets, though most of the customers are within walking distance to their house. Despite the praises by many, the pizza is pretty average. The plain slice is fairly decent with fresh cheese and good quality sauce. The ...

The base of the pizza is c...
