Pizza Knight

This pizza right here is no joke. Best pizza I’ve had in Jersey hands down. Only bummer is the limited hours and days, because I don’t eat pizza unless it’s from here. Real New York style pizza. Reminds me of the Italians back in New York when I was younger. Delivery guy is super cool and polite. The guy that picks up the phone also super cool.

The aroma hits you like a warm embrace, hinting at the magic happening in the oven. Each pie is a masterpiece, balancing tradition and bold creativity with an effortless cool that only a place this confident can pull off. The crust? Perfectly crisped, yet airy. The sauce?

It’s the kind of spot that reminds you why local pizza will always outshine the chains—because it’s made with soul.

Pizza was good. Had half plain, half with some toppings (meatball, pepperoni, peppers). Good taste, not oily at all. But for me the crust was not my favorite. I prefer a somewhat foldable slice where when held the tip flops slightly. That's the pizza I grew up with. If you like a crisper, thinner crust then this is the pizza for you. Friendly service, made the pizza to order and was done exactly on time. Street parking.

UPDATED REVIEW!! We tried the new unnamed pie Detroit style with mozz, Pepperoni cups, Ricotta and hot honey...absolutely amazing!! We also ordered the chicken tenders and they are so delicious!! So juicy and tender! If you haven't been you gotta go! First time customer and we absolutely loved the pizza! We tried the drunken pep and a plain cheese Detroit style pizza. Both were delicious we can't wait to try the others! Great customer service, good and delivery arrived earlier than we were told!

My response to questions like “what are your hobbies or interests” is invariably “Pizza”. I’ve sought out the best pizza from Philly to New Haven and can wholeheartedly say that Pizza Knight is my favorite pizza joint. They whip out an undeniably quintessential New York pie (thin n crunchy yet fluffy, not soggy nor greasy, and beautiful in its simplicity): skip the one bite lists and the influencers and get to the source of what’s real if you’re searchin for a NY pie! If I ever feel like deviating from the classic, the drunken pep Detroit-style is the end-stage of pizza evolution: the pie is gone before my brain can comprehend what it’s experiencing. Oh yeah, and if I happen to not want pizza, I’ll get the best chicken tenders and garlic knots I’ve ever had. When I gave the owner my praise for the tenders, he had Miguel from the back explain to me how they make em- like the pizza it’s no gimmicks just simple excellence!! I try not to write reviews like this but Pizza Knight is a true gem and I hope they are around for a long time. Thanks guys!

Me and my husband have been trying to find a go to pizza spot around us and we definitely found it! We got a personal pizza and it was the perfect size for two people. I love when pizza has a good crust and this one had that. The service was also great. I can’t wait to go back and try the other food that they offer. Edit: went back for the Buffalo chicken pizza and it was amazing!!! Best I’ve ever had

Pizza Knight in Hackensack serves up seriously delicious pizza at a great price. The Detroit-style and Sicilian pies are crispy, flavorful, and loaded with fresh toppings. You get top-tier taste without breaking the bank. What really sets this place apart is the owner, Mike he’s incredibly friendly, welcoming, and treats every customer like family. His passion for good food and great service shows in every detail.
