Jangos Pizza

Soooo, I used to actually live above Jango’s pizza (lol, I know, right?) This was many years ago and my first grown up apartment when I lived in NY. That being said, you’d think I’d want nothing to do with this pizza that I smelled day in and day out. WRONG. Jango’s was honestly the best pizza in that whole Monroe, Central Valley, Harriman area-​by FAR!
It’s locally owned and Mr. Jango himself (not his real name) would be in there every day making the pizza fresh. He cooked, answered the phone and served up slices all on his own. I believe at one point he had a delivery guy, but not sure about that anymore.
Anyway, the sauce was hands down amazing-​fresh ingredients and just the right blend of sweet and spicy. My favorite was the broccoli pie, which he would always make for us on the weekends when we had friends over. They used to serve heroes and calzones as well and I was a big fan of the eggplant parmigiana.
I don’t go back to the area too often, but I’ve made it a point to stop here for lunch when I do.
It doesn’t look like much from the outside, but the locals know the deal and I hope he continues to stay open for many more years!

This place looks like a total dump from the outside. I lived within walking distance for several years before stumbling upon their pizza (I had some at a party.)
Well, I think it is delicious. Good sauce, tasty, well seasoned crust and it is cheap to boot.
I have heard that it is not the cleanest establishment but frankly, I don’t care. The guy who runs it looks like Super Mario. On Monday nights the pizza is like, six dollars.
