    Absolutely ridiculous Overpriced. Which is a shame because the pizza is not half bad. I ordered for delivery one large pizza with one topping and one 2 L bottle of soda. The total was $32. Yes $32 for one pizza and one bottle of soda. Then add the drivers tip. I wouldn’t be as mad if the food was hot and the driver didn’t forget my soda. I’ll never order here again.

    Pondrelli's Pizza and Kitchen is about as consistent as you can get. Everytime we get a pizza, sandwich, or entree it is always very good. We have never had a bad experience. It is nice to know that when we order food from here we know it is going to be good. That is the reason we keep going back. There are plenty of options for pizza out there and it says something that theirs is the best. Keep up the good work!

    Checking out a new place for Pizza Slices. Today, Kit had a Sicilian Slice with Onions and Peppers. My slices were the Grandma, Sausage and Pepperoni. Fantastic crust, sauce, cheese and toppings.

    I've eaten here since 2017 and have never had a bad experience. Pizza always tasted great. Wraps are delightfully filled. Appetizers are delicious. Staff is friendly and always great to talk to.

    We ordered the catering special and added a few extra trays. Everything was on time, hot and ready to eat. The food was excellent and more than enough. Cavetelli and Broccoli, Sausage and Peppers, chicken francheise and more. Excellent!!!!

    Pondrelli's catered my daughter's college graduation party. We ordered food for 100 people. The food was excellent. Everyone raved about it. It also arrived right on time and was hot enough to serve immediately -- which we did. I highly recommend Pondrelli's if you''re having a big party.

    I've driven by this place more times than I can count but for some reason I never went inside. I wasn't expecting much from the outside but I was very pleasantly surprised. Tables tablecloths lay back kind of relaxing atmosphere. All I had was a slice and a small soda to try the pizza place out but I'm definitely going back to try to chicken parmesan the meatball parmesan sandwich and maybe some night of lasagna for dinner. I like the place and I'm glad I stopped in.

    First time here. Pizza is good

    It's a shame that they did not only raise their prices properly to match today's inflation but yet they decided to essentially double or more some items you triple the price but offer the same standard size portions and intermediate ingredients. I paid $8.88!!! Yes, especially $9 for a pepperoni and a thin crust w/ vodka sauce ( which the dough was not fully cooked, was way over kneaded & definitely was no where near fresh enough to still be in display case as it should have been tossed) !! No where near justifiable nor understandable, not even a bit.. I'm actually flat out disgusted with that. Unfortunately, I will NEVER return here do to the greed.. I mean every other pizzeria within a 10-mile radius properly raised their prices to match the inflation which would come out to as high as $4 a special sauce that is with chicken parm or something not almost $5 per standard plane or pepperoni slice! I am upset but at the same time I feel bad because they are going to be the ones to close their own doors. Slowly but surely customers will drop off your consumer list and to go elsewhere. I understand they want to make more money but they have to understand that the public does not have more money to give them.

    Best place to go and an excellent slice of pizza, or salad, guys at the counter are amazing, Very cool. The second we stepped in they all welcomed us, we felt at home. Amazing service! 10 ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

  • 5/5 Diane M. 1 year ago on Google
    The best I have experienced in the area, everything I've ordered was great from soup, salad to pizza and burgers. Always friendly, quick delivery, is my always "to go" place

  • 1/5 Raffaele F. 1 year ago on Google
    Horrible pizza. Threw that right in the garbage. Don't waste your money nor time stopping!

  • 1/5 Sam H. 1 year ago on Google
    Really wanted to like this place as they’ve been around forever. Unfortunately, it was a let down. $33 for a Sicilian pie with sausage and pepperoni. Their menu and price online says $22.99, so I feel ripped off for the minimal toppings I have here for almost $10 more. Not sure if inflation has something to do with the price increase, but yikes. There was barely even any cheese or sausage on the pie. Disappointing. On a positive note, it was clean inside and staff was nice. Just can’t justify the price and taste.

    We just moved to the neighborhood and ordered a large order from them. They were super polite, quick and food was great! Gave us free cookies to welcome us! Thank you!

    The best ever pizza I tried in NJ!.

  • 4/5 Andy S. 6 months ago on Google
    Inside is small, but this is largely a pizza place. Service was friendly and there was a good selection of pre-made slices to choose from for my first time there. I had two meat slices and enjoyed both. Good enough to come back, but it wasn't that different from other places. Parking is sufficient along the side and back and there was no wait to order, but deliveries were going out pretty quickly.

  • 5/5 Gabriela L. 6 months ago on Google
    Absolutely amazing!!! Everything was great but the Grandpa pie was outstanding!! Great customer service as well, will be back:)

    Love this place, but the wait can be long. Best to go with a +1. Bigger tables wait much longer

  • 3/5 Jessie B. 3 years ago on Google
    Came to tom'ss river and seaside heights for a bike event. Ordered pizza for delivery to our hotel room. The female who took my order said she didn't need my name or room number, leaving me wondering how she intended for the driver to find me for delivery. Paid 50+ dollars for 1 medium and 1 large pizza. Pizza was hanging out of the box at delivery with the box cutting into the pizza and one pizza wasn't even cut. Not the best first impression.

  • 5/5 Rhiannon J. G. 3 years ago on Google
    Went to Pizza Mozza after booking one month in advance! Forget the haters...this still has the best pizza. Unfortunately we live in Australia so our visits have been years in between. We have been 4 times. It has always been as good. Service,food,cocktails,friendly staff despite the fact it is always full with hordes waiting. The mushroom and taleggio pizza is my favourite with the tricolore salad or the cobb ( both great). Mario and Lidia when are you coming to Australia? Please. Can't wait to go back!

  • 5/5 Nicole F. 3 years ago on Google
    Yum! They have such delicious food. My husband and I tried them for the first time on a whim because we drive past the location on our way home from my job. Everything we've had from here is awesome. The pizza garlic knots, the wings, the chicken marsala, the pizza... all fantastic! Definitely give this place a try.

  • 4/5 Cheryl C. M. 3 years ago on Google
    We made a special trip from our Santa Monica vacation location because we had heard rave reviews. We weren't disappointed. We visited on a weekday afternoon. We were seated right away and it wasn't too crowded. The pizza was excellent. But my favorite was the housemade ricotta appetizer with fresh peas and mint pesto - yum! Our service was very good, even with the servers having a shift change during our meal.

  • 5/5 Esmeralda Ezzy G. 3 years ago on Google

    The sauce was excellent and the pizza was amazing. We had a slice of buffalo, grandma, and chicken parm and all 3 were delicious. The staff was very friendly and absolute gentlemen. We will be back!

  • 1/5 David E. 4 years ago on Google
    I wouldn't give them a 1 star rating. When ordering full trays they are really half trays. So half our guests at our Cub Scout Blue and Gold Ceremony didnt eat since half the order was missing. We called the restraunt and they said that was there trays. It was suppose to feed 60 people and cost 566.40. How ridiculous!
