When it comes to pizza, the state of New Jersey has a ton of choices and everyone seem to have their favorite.

In my house, we have pizza Friday's, and like to change it up from time to time to try and find a favorite and get a variety of pizza choices in our area.

While we all have our favorites, Peter Candia, who is the is the Food + Drink Editor at New Jersey Digest and graduate of The Culinary Institute of America pick the Top 40 pizzas in the state of New Jersey.

So the man has some pretty solid credentials to make these choice, but only one local spot from our area made the list, but it was a good one.

Tony's Baltimore Grill.

Atlantic City has changed a lot in the last 100 years, but not Tony’s. The AC red sauce joint has an iconic facade with its old-school signage and plenty of neon. That timeless design spreads to the interior, too. Try a plain pizza or a clams casino pizza. Long night playing blackjack? Tony’s serves food until 3:00 a.m. on the weekends. Stay a while after your pie, Tony’s bar stays open 24/7.

Tony's Baltimore Grill is an Atlantic City institution, located at 2800 Atlantic Ave, is a place that virtually every local and tourist has tried when they are in the Atlantic City area.

They describe themselves as: Trendy, late-night pizzeria dishes up classic pies & Italian comfort eats in an old-school interior.

From their website: Known for its retro décor, throwback jukebox, late-night crowds and an endless stream of pizza pie, it is the go-to place for many residents in need of cheap eats or a late night meal.

 

So what should you try when you go?  Well the pizza of course!  However, on top of making a great cheese pie, I always like to get the sausage pie, well done.

Here is the full list of the Top 40 pizzas in the state of New Jersey.
