The New Jersey Pizza Hunt

Parking is never usually an issue and there is plenty of interior seating available. The restaurant has a clean look and the decor is warm and inviting.

Date: 1/3/2018 Location: Skillman, NJ Slices ordered: Plain and Sausage ​Website: montgomerynjpizza.com/ Genteel's Brick Oven Pizza is located in a tiny storefront inside a busy strip mall. The parking lot has a decent amount of spaces, but can be nearly full during peak hours. Inside the restaurant, there are a few tables to sit and eat at, as well as a long wooden ledge you can sit at if you're getting slices. It's a small, but cozy restaurant. The pizza was pretty average. The base and crust were a bit dry and slightly overcooked. Sauce and cheese were okay, but nothing to brag about. The sausage slice was also generic and featured an uneven distribution of the topping. Overall, there are better places to go in the area for quality pizza, but if you're hungry and in need of a quick bite, this establishment will do.
