Had the pleasure of stopping in at the place for lunch.They had a lot of interesting and delicious looking pies. I tried a stuffed philly cheeseteak slice which I have never seen anywhere before and also had a chicken ceaser salad slice and both were awesome. The staff were really friendly and the owner Vinnie is great. He told me how his dad started it in the 70s. Over 50 years there and I can see why. The place got really busy just as I was leaving. Kids had a half day I heard, so tons came in along with some families, but the staff moved really quickly and so did the line. The extra outdoor seating helped. They were ready as I saw them prepping a lot of pies while I ate. Wish I tried the wings, those looked really good too. Highly recommend and the town is really coolas well. Very “Main Street” and nicely decorated for holidays.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 — Roman Gourmet in Maplewood is the Real Deal
If you haven’t been to Roman Gourmet in Maplewood, stop what you’re doing and get there today. This place isn’t just serving pizza — they’re serving memories, the kind you still think about days later.
From the moment you walk in, you can tell this is a place that takes pride in what they do. The aroma hits you first — that perfect blend of fresh dough, melted mozzarella, and real-deal sauce that’s clearly made with care. You know how most places claim to have “the best slice”? Roman Gourmet actually delivers.
The pizza is outstanding — full stop.
I’m talking perfectly crisp crust with just the right chew, sauce that’s flavorful and balanced (not too sweet, not too acidic), and cheese that stretches like it’s in a pizza commercial. You taste it and you know — this is someone’s craft, not just a product.
And speaking of that — the owner is exactly the kind of person who makes you want to come back again and again. Friendly, engaged, present. You can tell he cares — about the food, the neighborhood, the experience. There’s a passion behind this place that you can actually feel.
Maplewood has a lot of great spots, but Roman Gourmet is in its own lane. It’s the kind of place where you walk in once and suddenly it becomes your spot — the one you recommend whenever someone asks where to get the best pizza around.
Bottom line:
If you love pizza — real pizza — Roman Gourmet is a must. Not good. Not great.
Memorable. Special. Standout.
I’d give it 10 stars if I could.
A masterpiece slice every time.

Great food! The pizza is out of this world. They are kind and make you feel welcome. They are offering those affected by the govt shut down and without their SNAP benefits free pizza and a soft drink. Just show your SNAP card. God bless these amazing people. There’s a special place set aside in heaven for the owner and workers.

Amazing food, highly recommend the S’more’s cookies and the Sicilian pizza. Cookies are some of the best cookies I’ve ever had.

Visiting from Missouri and stumbled across this gem! Pizza and customer service was fantastic. Owner told me the family story of how his mom and dad opened in the 70’s. Thanks and we will be back…

Honestly never been here or New Jersey, but I was on TicTok and saw the owner offering up food for people with SNAP cards. 2 slices of pizza and a fountain drink for presenting the SNAP card. For that alone, 5 stars across the board, and when I do end up going to Be Jersey, I’ll swing in and get a pie.

Maybe one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. And it was totally random that I came across this place. But the cheese and sauce ratio, the perfect crust… on top(pings) of that, the staff was as friendly and warm as you could possibly imagine. Hopefully will be passing through again so I can have another slice. Mmmm!!

Was my first time here. It was extremely busy but the staff here is extremely efficient and precise. They handled everyone in a timely manner despite there being what seemed to be a line out the door.
The ordering process was painless, pick what you want, stand to the side and wait til yours is called.
The pizza: fantastic…excellent!
I would visit this place again if I had the chance to- you should to!
