There are a few constants we can't escape in life; death, taxes, and, for me, two slices and a birch beer at this quintessential pizzeria in my hometown in New Jersey. No, it doesn't use fresh Buffalo Muzz, or tomatoes from some far out place in Italy, or carry some silly moniker D.O.C. And it doesn't have 45 minutes lines like that place out in Midwood, or have some special award from NYMag, but for the past two decades whenever I make my way back to EB, East Brunswick for those not versed in New Jersey lore, I always manage to hit up Taverna, for you guessed it, two plain slices and a Fanta birch beer. The pizza is straight up Jersey, thicker yet crunchy crust, slightly sweet sauce and regular ole Mozzarell. And yes, the same 3 cats still work the counter as if I still was in high school, driving my '90 black Celica GT. Only now its 5 bucks, a big jump from the 4 dollars it used to set me back……….
I really hate to give bad reviews of local businesses but it is as if they just stopped caring. There pizza is eatable but in an area packed with some really great pizza joints this one falls flat.
They never have a selection of slices. They have no pizza window at all. There will be a regular pie out and then maybe one other with grilled chicken on it. Just laying on the counter.
There are very few drinks in the cooler. Maybe five different drinks and some water.
My kids will eat almost any pizza and when we go here it's like awww! What kid says awww to pizza?
Had the slices here and enjoyed them. The service was great and the place was very laid back. Wanted to come back and try different things but we were too far away to make it work for our lunch breaks.
