Stoke Coal Fire Pizza & Bar is one of my greatest finds to-date. My girlfriend and I stopped in after doing some work in the area. The restaurant had a cozy atmosphere with friendly servers and warm vibes.

The pizza is tremendous and the options are some of the most unique I've seen. I tried an obscure pie that mixed spicy ham with a sweet and spicy honey. This is the most interesting combination I've tried so far and I have to say that I was pleasantly impressed. The sweetness and spiciness melded together nicely offering a full-tastebud experience that I won't soon forget. I also managed to convince my girlfriend to allow me to try a bit of her Margherita pie. It was beautifully made with delicious sauce, super-fresh cheese and the some of the best crust.
Overall, if you are anywhere in the area, you must try this establishment!

PS: the cocktails are elegant and worth the expense if you appreciate a well-crafted masterpiece.

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.

AMA Pizza e Cucina, Flagtown, NJ

Date: 10/23/2017 Location: Flagtown, NJ Pizza Ordered: Margherita e Indiavoleta Website: www.amapizza.com/ AMA Pizza is new to the block and it brings a welcomed change from the New York style pizza we are so used to in this area. AMA's instant popularity is evident whenever you attempt to park near the restaurant or try to get a table. It can get a bit crowded, but it is worth the wait. Service can be a bit slow and it can take some time before you are waited on and served, so bring someone you can have good conversation with. Despite the waits, staff is incredibly kind and the managers are present and would come over to tables to ask if everything is alright. The menu is full of items created with extremely fresh ingredients. You can see chefs preparing the meals for yourself, as the kitchen is partially open. The oven is beautiful, though limited in capacity, which likely is partially the cause for some of the wait. My girlfriend and I decided to order the margherita and t...

Stelton Pizza, Piscataway, NJ

Date: 9/11/2017 Location: Piscataway, NJ Pizza Ordered: Plain and Pasta Website: www.steltonpizza.com/ Stelton Pizza in a strip mall along a fairly busy road. There is plenty of parking and, once inside, plenty of seating. I don't recall there being many options behind the glass at the counter as far as getting slices to-go was concerned, but there was enough to make a selection. The staff was friendly and Halloween decorations were impressive and helped add to the atmosphere. The plain slice was flavorful with a good amount of sauce and a good amount of toasting of the cheese. The crust and base were crispy, though the crust did have a bit of excess flour that can be seen in my picture. The pasta slice was pretty good. I appreciated having the cheese over the pasta and I found that it helped contain the slice better than some others. I would definitely eat here again given the opportunity.
