Absolutely, hands down the best old world pizza in the world. The quality ingredients, and getting the pie baked to your desired doneness make for an incredible pizza! Won best pizza from Inside NJ.- Hands down this is the best pizza in NJ. Very limited days and hours. $25 cash come back in 20 minutes.

Sean PitmanOctober 12, 2010The BEST pizza in New Jersey, hands-down. I consider myself a "pizza enthusiast" and this place has everyone beat by a mile. They still use the same brick oven they've used for a hundred plus years!
Tom WalshApril 12, 2019The pizza is great,the bread and sausage or pepperoni rolls are amazing there is nothing there that is not good.
You have to be an idiot to drive by this place and not get a pie! No slices, but they do have Pepperoni and Sausage Rolls to go. Real Italian Semolina and an aroma to linger.
Scott PDecember 14, 2014This is a unique pizzeria. I was lucky enough to meet Al during my visit and he was a great guy. I recommend a plain pie, light on the sauce. The crust is thin, crunchy and delicious. Ca$h ONLY!- Victoria CassibaAugust 10, 2011Best sicilian pie! Ask for it well done & light on the sauce - perfection!
Adam KubanAugust 30, 2013If you're standing at Santillo's counter, you may have noticed there is no dining room. No worries. Owner Al Santillo can point you to a nearby bar that will allow you to eat your pizza there.
Don't order on busy days or peak hours. They say half hour till deliver, expect more like two hours and the pie will be burnt. Don't expect any refunds or discounts.
Jonathan GarciaApril 30, 2014Great tasting pizza, but at a high cost $14 for Reg, and $4 each topping. I would get more simply for taste, but that guy Al has a nasty attitude, and is unprofessional; and they except cash only...
