| - Hubby and I have tried a lot of pizza joints in the Valley, and I am originally from NJ ~ mmm, I can still recall the Atlantic City boardwalk pizza from my youth ~ so I think we have a pretty decent base upon which to review a thin crust pizza. Over the years, we've been disappointed with NYPD, Rosati's, Oregano's, and Nello's. Ray's, Lorenzo's, Barro's, and Spinato's were better.
Classic Italian Pizza lives up to the Yelp-hype. CIP specializes in 12" thin crust pizzas. You get a high quality, slightly chewy yet crunchy thin crust pizza with a well-spiced sauce and top shelf Italian toppings (the sausage was delicious!). The brick oven bread appetizer recommended by previous Yelpers comes with a plate of olive oil and marinara that is great for dipping your pizza crusts into...In terms of portion size, my hubby, his friend, and I split two pizzas and a bread appetizer, and that was enough for fairly large appetites. And, finally, the service was awesome, as was the ambiance.
In sum, go now, go often... and probably go on a Thursday night, as it seems you'll be seated immediately!
