Reviews
Im glad to say it was amazing!
I had given up on finding a decent sandwich place in central NJ. $20 for a mediocre sub has become the standard. For under $20 I got a Luigi special. Look at that picture. Nice amount of meat. Not stuffed with lettuce as a filler. Excellent bread. I could barely fit it into my mouth, but fit it i did.
This place was hopping too. As I waited for my sandwich, people just kept coming in for pick up or to dine in. The locals know this place is good. That tells you something.
Thank you, Mr. Luigi, for standing out as a master sub maker. Hats off to you. Next time I’m in the area, and its not 100 degrees out, I’m trying your pizza, my friend.
Getting there can be a little tricky depending on which direction you’re coming from — if you’re turning left, you’ll have to cross a double yellow with traffic waiting at the light, and the restaurant is tucked in the back of a small plaza, so it’s easy to miss the first time. Once you find it though, there’s parking right out front and around the building.
Inside, it’s cozy and casual — the pizza counter is up front, and there’s a small dining room to the left with maybe ten tables total. We had about a 15–20 minute wait at 6:45 p.m. on a Saturday, which wasn’t bad at all. It’s BYOB, and conveniently there’s a liquor store a short walk away near the Acme if you need a bottle of wine.
The staff was excellent — friendly, polite, and efficient. Our waitress opened our wine, brought glasses for the table, and kept everything running smoothly.
We started with the apple walnut cranberry salad, which was fresh, flavorful, and big enough to share. For dinner, we had a mix of dishes: veal parmesan with linguine, chicken parm, mussels, a burger, spaghetti, and a chicken sub. Everyone really enjoyed their meals — hearty portions, great flavor, and cooked perfectly. You’ll have leftovers unless you’ve got a big appetite!
We also tried their pizza since it’s what they’re known for. I had a Sicilian slice and my buddy tried a regular slice — both were delicious, with that classic New Jersey-style flavor that makes it easy to see why they call it “famous.”
For three couples, the total came to about $200 — roughly $66 per couple — which felt very fair for the quality and amount of food we got.
Overall, Luigi’s is a hidden gem in Lincroft. It’s a little tucked away, but definitely worth finding. Great food, friendly service, fair prices, and a comfortable, hometown feel. We’ll absolutely be back.
This place is off the beaten path, so you need to go to the back of the parking lot.
Danielle was our sever, she was on her game !
After that it’s all down hill.
I took 1 look at the pizza, all of it was burned. By the time they reheated it it would have been charcoal.
I asked for penese sauce on my pasta.
They didn’t know what it was !???
How is that possible ?!
So, I opted for a veal parm sandwich.
The veal was not fresh, it the frozen kind. Then, they had tge nerve to put it on a seeded roll. The cook is definitely not Italian. Oh and the forgot the cheese.
My friend played city safe. A cheese burger. It was fair to poor. How is that possible?
Go somewhere else.
