101 Best Pizzas In Country ... And Not One From Point Pleasant

Pizza. Thin crust or Sicilian. Plain or pepperoni. There are few people who don’t love pizza, and most have a favorite, you-have-to-try-this place to get it.

The Daily Meal, a website about all things food, just released its list of the 101 top pizzas in the country ... but just four pizzas from New Jersey made the list. None of them were from the Jersey Shore.

“Some 700 pizza spots were considered by 78 panelists. Who were these fine folks? In addition to The Daily Meal’s in-house pizza experts and city editors, this was a geographically diverse panel of American chefs, restaurant critics, bloggers, writers, and pizza authorities,” according to the site.

De Lorenzo’s Tomato Pies in Robbinsville came in at 31, with Star Tavern of Orange at 37, Santillo’s Brick Oven Pizza in Elizabeth at 51 and Papa’s Tomato Pies of Robbinsville 75th.

NJ.com reports that none of the four that made The Daily Meal’s top 101 made its list of New Jersey’s best pizza places as rated by its Munchmobile crew.
