This place is great, been coming here for over 20 years! I love their grandma and Sicilian slices on the reheat in their oven. Or order a fresh Margherita pie and eat it asap. Chicken parm is good too.

In town for an event and stopped by my all time FAVORITE pizzeria. Grabbed a cheese pie & a coupla fountain drinks. Great food, super friendly staff and made me feel right at home. Tony’s is THE BEST!

Took my grandkids here after the grand slam batting cages what a mistake place was freezing no heat no lights , and a shelf of old pizza from day before pies lined up like they just came out if the fridge
Well, maybe they just opened. It was 1:35 in the afternoon.

When I first went to Tony‘s I thought it was your run of the mill pizza spot; but I was very much wrong. I ordered my usual pizza spot dish, a chicken pen sub, and safe to say I’ve had a pseudo-religious experience after eating that sandwich. The light sweetness of the sauce along with the salty mozzarella cheese was heavenly. The chicken cutlet was light and bit oily. The bread was warm and crispy. Overall I’d say this place is the best pizza place I’ve ever went to and I ensure to come here at least 2-3 times a month.

2 plain slices. Very affordable at $2.50 a slice. On a one bite scale, 6.9 for me. Super floppy to where I needed both hands to do a fold and the other hand to hold up front for the first bite. Also plenty of drippings onto the plate when holding the pizza to take a bite. Definitely could use a little paper towel blotting. The pizza itself isn’t bland, but a little garlic powder doesn’t hurt. The guys behind the counter seem nice enough, but it was fairly busy and they were doing their thing taking orders and getting customers their food. No interaction outside of “what can I get for ya” and if it were slower I’m sure you could share a laugh. Would I go out of my way to come here; no. If I was at the ShopRite in the same parking lot and had a hankering for a slice; yes.

We ordered a large plain well done and a Brooklyn style well done. We got exactly what we asked for a crisp and tasty pizza. Drove 35 minutes to get there at a friend’s suggestion. It was worth it!

Stop #1: Tony’s Pizza & Restaurant — South Plainfield, NJ
Rating: Elite Slice
The Stop
Pulled up to Tony’s during a delivery run in South Plainfield. One of those classic Jersey spots you can tell has been doing this a long time. No flash, no nonsense—just pizza and people who know what they’re doing.
The Rule
If I deliver it, then I’ve gotta try it first.
The Order
Plain slice. Always. That’s the lie detector test.
The Breakdown
•Crust: Solid with a light crisp and still foldable. Holds its shape—no mid-slice collapse.
•Sauce: Balanced and flavorful, not overly sweet, not heavy-handed.
•Cheese: Even melt, perfectly portioned. No cheese slide, no grease puddle.
•Slice Integrity: Passed the fold test with flying colors. Clean bite all the way through.
The Verdict
This is straight-up Jersey pizza done right. Nothing fancy, nothing forced—just a slice that knows exactly what it’s supposed to be. The kind of pizza you grab once and immediately think, “Yeah, I’d come back here.”
After delivering food all over New Jersey and stopping at more mom-and-pop pizza spots than I can count, Tony’s earns Elite Slice status. I’d recommend it without hesitation—and I’ll definitely be back, probably mid-dash, probably saying “just one slice” and meaning at least two.

We really enjoyed our lunch here. Great plain pizza, nice and crispy! Chicken noodle soup was excellent and the tomato sandwich was like bruschetta on crispy bread yummy!
Been back several times when we are in the area. The food is always delicious. Fantastic meatball parm sandwiches!
