West Orange Pizza

This place is definitely a hidden gem worth a visit. The location is somewhat noticeable, in the rear corner of the parking lot, next to retro fitness. But the food is absolutely worth it. You're just cash, but I know many restaurants in the area that's just cash. This is a simple area to get cash when it has to be at the last moment. The food is amazing. Pizza, as it should be. I didn't have a great pizza so long as I remember. The staff is friendly and the service is fast. It'll be one of my pizzerias.

Franks Pizza is on the lower level of the West Orange Whole Foods shopping center. It only accepts cash payments. (There is an ATM on premises . I promise despite these factors you won't be disappointed if you seek out this wonderful place. Franks has been a consistent gem for many years. The family that owns and runs this restaurant/pizzeria have maintained a high standard from day 1. The food is delicious, every standard dish is excellent and freshly prepared. To me the exceptional standouts are the Chicken Francese, Chicken, Contadina, Eggplant Parm sandwich, white pizza with garlic and broccoli and their mouthwatering garlicky chicken with broccoli rabe wrap. My family loves the linguine with white clam sauce (it comes with 4 or 5 fresh baby clams in a fragrant garlic sauce , chicken marsala, baked ziti pizza, and an all around favorite is the square fresh tomato bruschetta pizza with of course garlic ; . Yes I and my family love garlic, but we also love restraint and good tasting food. A side note, this restaurant and its staff stayed open during the worst of the pandemic serving the community. They would put food in the trunk of your car, allowing those of us desiring a taste of pre-pandemic time to escape via food memories. They and their employees deserve so much by way of thanks and continued patronage. The ambiance is super clean pizzeria with many booths and several large tables. The takeout is well packaged. The food never disappoints! Whether you are a long time native or are newly discovering West Orange Franks.is one place worth a try. You will keep coming back. My family and I have celebrated birthdays and anniversaries with their food. There are better looking places with tablecloths and candles, but for taste, freshness and consistency this is the place.

Very seldom do I give a restaurant 5 stars. I don’t know what the other reviewers are talking about. We ate at a very well known fancy Italian restaurant yesterday in Times Square and it does not compare to this place at all. This place is truly a gem. Everything we had was delicious. It was 9 of us, 5 kids and 4 adults. Ordered pepperoni pizza for the kids. Then each of us got a different meal. They treated us like family. I’m glad we found it. I will always make sure to stop by here each and every-time we visit New Jersey. Oh yeah bring CASH they do not accept card payment at all. Forget all those complaining about having to get cash too. The stop at the ATM is worth it!!!!

Nice clean place for lunch, clean bathrooms, Friendly atmosphere. Lots of parking seating. I highly recommend this place.

The restaurant is clean, and the staff is very friendly. There are plenty of seats available, and they allow you to bring your own wine, though I'm not certain about their beer policy. The pizza was tasty, but the cheesesteak was somewhat mediocre, and the bread was slightly overcooked. However, the spaghetti was absolutely delicious.
