Reviews
Love the down the earth atmosphere of this Americana style eatery and Zac the bartender is really attentive and friendly, plus he makes really delicious cocktails.
I recommend checking out their happy hour during the week from 3-6pm so you can try a few different things, food and drinks wise.
This 10,000-square-foot, two-story establishment with a neon-lit sign on Glenwood Ave in Bloomfield asks, “Just another pizzeria?” They also house a 20-seat speakeasy that’s open Thursday through Saturday called the Rab.bit Hole that can be found upstairs behind a hidden entrance.
Opened in 2020, Blue Steel Pizza Company is the answer and should become obvious after looking at the menu. A reservation was easily made via Resy.
My partner and I were greeted at the host station and got a regular table in the 1st-floor dining room by the pizza oven in the middle. The vibe was modern and industrial. Patrons had to use their phone flashlights to read the menu as the lighting was pretty dim.
They are known for their Detroit-style pizza—a pie baked in a rectangular, traditionally blue-steel pan, the kind once used by autoworkers. It’s made with a blend of mozzarella cheese and traditional Wisconsin brick cheese that melts down the side of the pie, making for a burnt, gooey, cheesy crust. It’s cold-fermented for three days and is closer to sourdough. It has real flavor and an airier texture. It’s like a lighter version of a Sicilian with a buttery crust.
As a starter, we decided on the Chopped Salad. For our main entrée, we opted for the Jersey Tomato Pizza Pie. Portions run big enough for sharing, and we downed them with the 1911 Cider. The pizza crust was light, airy, and crispy with the right amount of fresh ingredients, making the ensemble tastefully delicious.
The staff was attentive, friendly, and accommodating, and our server was Adam. The price was comparable to the area.
We had a wonderful experience and would recommend this place.
Found this place for date night and the first tip is- if its date night, reserve the Rabbit Hole! Unpretentious but cozy and intimate with great service. It’s like a speakeasy but no secret codes needed. You get the full menu but diff cocktails.
We ordered the Wild Mushroom Dan Dan Noodles- ok shroomami goin on. Didnt expect this on the menu for a pizza place but do yourself a favor and get it! Hug portion for a small plate- zero gripes here!I always order fries if its on a menu- and extra crispy. Nothing unique here other than a big mac type sauce for dipping.
The mains: My wife ordered the house-made Spicy Rigatoni without the sausage. This was good, but not spicy at all (unless the spice came from the sausage)? It was like a great pasta you could make at home, comforting, but not sure it was worthy of the cost. But here is what was- the pizza. Our awesome server recommended the tomato pie because it had tastier cheeses. They were not wrong. Flavorful sauce, crispy and fluffy crust and of course that great wall of cheese protecting it from all attacks except mine! Just zoom in on the pic of the pizza and admire its greatness!
To finish we had the Sticky Ickey Toffee Cake. Tip: Order one per person, the concept of sharing is likely to cause disputes. This simply melted as we ate it. No eye contact was made during this part of date-night because neither of us could afford to lose ground on this plate if ooey gooey deliciousness!
TLDR: Load up on the detroit style pies, double order the dessert. Mushroom Dan Dan is a hit it you want to fill up your table guests early and save more of the rest for you!
We ordered the Saturn and the New Motto cocktails and they were sweet and delicious. Garlic Soy Chicken Wings to start and the chicken was moist and filled with flavor from the sauce. The green dipping sauce was very light in consistency and flavor but complimented the wings well.
We ordered the White Pizza and the Angry Vodka Pizza to split. The white was my favorite, but both divine. The Angry Vodka has a slightly spicy sauce topped with a drizzle of pesto but was overpowered by the vodka sauce. This is definitely a heavy slice. The White Pizza was lighter, with great flavors from the chorizo and sweet peppadew peppers combining perfectly with the cheeses, whole cooked garlic cloves, and slight spice from the slices of jalapeño. We kept the sauce from the wings to also dip some bites of pizza into and it was a great pairing as well since the sauce was so light!
We wish they had more white pie options. Too many vodka pie options, or maybe I just don’t like vodka sauce that much. It’s too heavy for the pizza, in my opinion. We tried the pepperoni, ranch, and banana pepper red sauce pie and the stuffed mushroom vodka pie at a later time. We LOVED the pepperoni ranch banana pepper one. The banana peppers were perfect match on this pie and the red sauce is excellent. Like I said before, the vodka pies are just too much for me. Can’t eat that much as it absolutely fills me. The stuffed mushroom one came out a bit burnt but didn’t taste that way. Didn’t have much flavor other than vodka sauce and bread crumbs. Wouldn’t order again but didn’t hate.
The sweet plantains were amazing. So different and unique but worked so well we were licking the plate clean!
Service was excellent. Our waitress was very sweet and always had a smile. Was consistent with filling our waters often as we kept chugging them due to all the salt.
We came another time and the service was VERY slow to take any of our orders including drinks and lacked personality from the male waiter.
Only issue was the manager (who I’m assuming the man was) kept dimming the lights lower and lower what seemed to be every half hour. Customers had to use their phone flashlights to read the menu, as most of them were over 40 and it was just way too dark. As someone who has a difficult time seeing in the dark, it was very tough on the eyes. Not a very practical way to dine. We like to see the menu, the dishes, and our accompaniments. Maybe keep the lights a little brighter? This was our only complaint.
Definitely recommend having a meal here. Pizza is deep dish/chicago style and definitely rare to see in New Jersey- being the home to a good slice! But oh so delicious that you need to try sometime.
crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I really wanted to try their chicken sandwich but they were sold out. To drink I had the new motto cocktail—really good, and my husband ordered the Mexican fire squad and he really liked it.
