Since johnnies was closed we went to King of pizza ! This place has been around since my parents were young ! The owners are like famiga! The food was filling and good ! These negative reviews are a bunch of p/O air breathers ! If it was in a different location they would make more money but it's still good !

We were in the neighborhood meeting clients and just happened to stumble on this spot after finding it on Yelp. WHY it doesn't have a 5 star rating is beyond me. Staff was friendly, hospital and very sweet. Our server suggested we try the panzarotti, their signature. When we tried to order more food, she let us know that the portions are huge and to just try the panzarotti and if it isn't enough, she'll gladly add to our order. Who does that? Instead of trying to sell us on more stuff we probably can't eat--she recommends we order less! Philly Cheesesteak was fresh and tasted delicious but obviously, nowhere near the original. Panzarotti comes baked or deep fried. We threw caution to the wind and got our deep fried. Everything from the marinara, the extra crispy crust and the oozy cheese was amazing. We went here a few months ago and still have not stopped talking about it. We're planning another business trip around this restaurant!!

I've had pizza here a few times and met the owner. Very nice guy. It's good pizza. I was inspired to write this after trying the "Famous and Original King of Pizza". I have no connection to either location but my god that pizza was atrocious and a horrible representation of NJ pizza. If that place is the "Original King of Pizza" it makes this location the "New and improved God of Pizza". It's night and day. 100% worth the drive to this location to avoid the one on route 70. There sooo many great options for Pizza in the area. This is a winner and the other one should be knocked down.

King of Pizza has been around forever. Great place to eat in or take out. Pizza is made just right and so are the appetizers. Very friendly staff as well.

My boyfriend grew up near by and took me for a panzarotti as soon as this place opened on a Saturday. We were the first customers. The owner made our panzarotti personally while we waited. I liked the look of this place. Reminiscent of a 1970's pizza parlor with the menu's above the register, the old fountain soda machines, the tables and chairs. Very cozy. The panzarotti was delicious. Crispy and hot filled with gooey cheese and garlicy sauce. So easy to devour. Next time I 'd like to try one with some additional fillings, maybe sausage or mushrooms. This place also has a full menu of other items. Wished I lived closer!

The real thing! Two transplants from NY serving yup the best South Jersey style italian food ever! The Pizzarotti is a larger version of the panzarotti, with a little thicker crust. Awesome rhin crust pizza. Real italian hoagies. Now to become a must when visiting from MD. Makes me want to move back to Jersey!
