lion Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Possibly driving thru Trenton soon and been meaning to hit the place to try 'tomato pies'. Don't think I'll be able to swing both places on this trip. Anybody got suggestions on either choosing between De Lorenzo's or Papa's Tomato Pies?

Arcturus Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Can't recommend one over the other, but be sure to stop at Halo Farms when you're there. Everything they sell is amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDawgBBall9 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 My friend's mom makes one for the fourth of July BBQ and it is a great dish. I don't think you'll be disappointed, but then again I've never been to either of those places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1000yregg Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 There is a difference between the DeLorenzo's in Trenton. I blogged about it last year. I like the pie at the one on Hudson, but the one on Hamilton is more friendly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saf Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 De Lorenzo's or Papa's Tomato Pies? I have been to De Lorezo's, but not Papa's. The attachment says that De Lorenzo's is the classic, in his mind (He grew up in PA, just over from Trenton.) It was very good. Tasty crust, good toppings, NOT SOGGY! (I hate soggy.) I was surprised to find that it was a BYO alcoholic drinks place. Luckily, we had a case of wine in the car, so we had some with us. They also had birch beer - my favorite.

lion Posted September 29, 2010 Author Share Posted September 29, 2010 Thanks for the replies. Will keep Halo in mind, but it's doubtful since have to convince some friends the detour for the pizza is worth it. Yes, it's hard to choose between pizza and friends.

Joe H Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 Thanks for the replies. Will keep Halo in mind, but it's doubtful since have to convince some friends the detour for the pizza is worth it. Yes, it's hard to choose between pizza and friends. DeLorenzo's on Hudson's. That is the foundation of the reputation for Trenton pizza. We drove there from Reston-twice-and it was worth it. Having said this perhaps we should try Papa's on our next trip... 1912 predates Totonno's, Pepe's and a few others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lion Posted October 3, 2010 Author Share Posted October 3, 2010 It's a sweet pie. Enjoyed the sauce and thin crust. We drove by De Lorenzo's on Hudson on the way out of town and it was closed tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lion Posted October 7, 2010 Author Share Posted October 7, 2010 Forgot to mention from my research on Trenton pizza last week, I read some place and this may not be true, that De Lorenzo's on Hudson is on a month to month lease basis. Apparently, the main focus is on the De Lorenzo's in Robbinsville instead of the older joint. I'm certainly going to try and make it up there on my next trip to NYC, but just something to keep in mind if you're interested in the place. And if anyone knows that isn't true, please post here.
