Date: 3/29/2017 Location: New Brunswick, NJ Pizza Ordered: Plain and Chicken Bacon Ranch Website: jimmysnewbrunswick.com/  Jimmy's is a small pizzeria tucked next to Hidden Grounds on Easton Avenue. Historically, Jimmy's was one of my favorite spots to grab a late night slice. The owner is a great guy and super polite. There is plenty of indoor seating and usually a decent selection of slices to try, as well as a full menu including fat sandwiches and wraps.
The plain slice was pretty decent and had a subtle garlic taste. The crust was fluffy and the cheese was fresh. The chicken bacon ranch slice was pretty good. There was a fine amount of ranch applied which combined well with the cheese to create good flavor. The chicken wasn't anything to brag about, nor was the bacon. It seemed pretty standard and didn't stand out to me. Overall the slices were average for the area but the staff is the real reason to enjoy a late night slice here. They are always good for some conversation.

Date: 03/17/2017 Location: Hillsborough, NJ Pizza Ordered: Plain and Pepperoni + Sausage Website: mypizzabrothers.com/  I've known about Pizza Brothers for quite some time but have never really been in the area to grab a slice from them. Apparently, I have been missing out for years. The plain slice was stellar, offering a great cheese to tomato sauce ratio. The base and crust were pleasantly fluffy and the overall flavor was delicious. This is perhaps one of the best plain slices in the Hillsborough area for me. Their sausage and pepperoni slice was what you would expect, and the sausage (the ground variety) was both crispy and tasty. The pizzeria itself has classic booth seating with appealing pizza paddle artwork on the wall. There's plenty of parking and the staff is very polite and helpful. The establishment is very clean and as I mentioned before, the plain slice is one of the better ones I've tasted in the area of my hometown. I will definitely be stopping in again in the future.  Date: 3/20/2017 Location: Hillsborough, NJ Pizza Ordered: Plain pan slice and meat lovers Website: http://www.alfonsos.net/   Alfonso's Pizzeria and Restaurant is tucked in a strip mall at a busy intersection off of 206. There is ample parking and the restaurant is separated into a dining in section and a takeout section. The dine-in section has a good atmosphere with tasteful decorations and a very comfortable feel to it. The staff was very polite and happy to do what they could to make my experience positive. The best part about dining in is the bread that gets brought to the table. The bread is delicious and fluffy, pairing well with butter.
Though I haven't tried a standard plain slice yet, the pizza I have sampled is very decent. The personal pie I had was half sausage and half plain and used the same base and crust as the bread that was delivered to the table. The sausage was of the chunky variety and tasted great. In the normal slices I ordered, the pan slice had fresh cheese and a crispy crust and base combo. The color was slightly more orange than I'm used to, but the taste was consistent with most pan-style slices I've ordered. I think perhaps that it was the cheese that gave it this color. Overall the sauce was decent and I would happily order the slice again. The meat lovers slice was very filling and featured ham, sausage, pepperoni, and bacon. The slice is about what you'd expect from any pizzeria and didn't stand out too much. It is a good choice if you're hungry. I will be sure to stop in and try the plain slice one of these days to get a gauge on their standard quality. |
