Esposito’s Pizza & Pasta

Fantastic pizza! Had the sesame crust pizza #1 with pepperoni and it was so good! Light and flavorful, eat much more than I usually do cause I couldn’t get enough. Sat next to the pizza prep station and Every pizza we saw them making looked delicious! We’ll definitely be back for more.

Been there many times over the last two years. Recently, we returned to find out that they got skimpy on the portions and the content was «just ok.» Sadly, like most places that have a reputation they start to settle in to a comfort zone and then cut costs and size and taste!
C’mon! What’s with these places? HUH?

I am so mad at myself for waiting so long to try Esposito’s! This is the best pizza I have ever had. The sesame seed crust is amazing. There are so many amazingly tempting choices you’ll be making this a regular spot!

Very good pasta, I had the dinner special (chicken penne alla vodka) that comes with salad and bread. amazing!

Went to Jersey and had pizza. Coming from NY didn’t think I would find it. The sesame pizza was different and out of this world. Clam pie to die for. Ordered a grilled chicken spinach mozzarella wrap. It came out piping hot and the spinach was fresh as if they picked it that day.

Espositos in Matawan is regular stop for my family and I. The pizza is great! I usually get just a plain cheese pie, button occasion I will try other types by the slice. Their sesame crust pizza is their «signature pie.» I can’t comment on the delivery service (I live so close that I never carryout). Another thing I get is the spaghetti bolognese, it is probably my favorite thing to get here. It is well portioned and has a great sauce.
The service is relatively quick and servers are friendly. The interior of the restaurant is very small but is very nice for an intimate dinner with that «special-​someone» and for a casual bite with friends. I wouldn’t go here with groups since the seating is so limited.
During the winter the restaurant is cold since they leave the front door open, one time I was shivering so I kindly asked the waitress to close the door and she did, which was nice, I appreciate that they care about their customers comfort. During the summer they open this glass garage door sort of thing so a gentle breeze can come in, which is lovely on a nice summer night. They also have outdoor seating during the late spring, summer, and early fall for a nice meal under the stars.
Since this is a small establishment the parking situation is a bit lacking, so if you are going here with family or friends I would try and use one car.
Overall, I think that this place is great and would definitely recommend a stop here.
Keep up the good work!

Fantastic pizza, and the prices are fantastic. The atmosphere was very nice for a family to grab a dinner, and we were able to sit down as soon as we walked in. I would definitely recommend eating here, and I know that I will be returning regularly.

A few friends and I went for lunch today because we had heard good things and they were right! When we arrived they had just finished a big party but made sure to clean up and move the tables around so we could sit right away. We ordered an Italian hot dog, a plain pie and a Tuscan chicken wrap which were very tasty. Typically I’m not a fan of thin crust pizza, however, it wasn’t too thin and I did enjoy it. Cute little place and now that I work in the area, I will definitely go back and try their sesame slice.

This is our go to pizza place in Aberdeen. The pizza is top notch and consistent. I would strongly recommend their Sicilian pies. The «Grandma» is one of our favorites. The crust is the perfect consistency and very flavorful.

The sesame pizza is hands down one of the best tasting pizzas I have had in a lot time l. And great great price to go along with it.

We’ve had takeout twice and its been quick and convenient. The sesame pizza is truly wonderful and special– get the «award winning» one that’s basically a Margherita topped with pesto. The non-​sesame ones are nothing special.

Finally got to try their famous sesame crust pizza. I got the specialty one without any toppings. It was good, almost even reminded me a little of breakfast (think sesame bagel). Next time I will get their sesame crust pizza with some toppings on top to make it a little more savory.

The sesame seed crust pizza is amazing. I usually get half of it with fresh mozzarella, tomato, and pesto drizzle for me and the other regular for my kids. They love the crust and they don’t like pizza crust. I also love the prosciutto, arugula, and spicy evoo pie on their amazing crust. The calamari and other Italian dishes have all been great using quality ingredients and most importantly: all have been super tasty. Love this spot for eat in and delivery!!!

We always get takeout– specialty sesame pizza is AMAZING! My favorite by far in the area by a long shot. I’m lactose and gluten intolerant but will suffer the consequences to eat this pizza!

Stopped by one day during lunch time to pick up a couple of slices of pizza. The sesame crust pizza with basil pesto was so yummy! The crust was thin, but not too thin and it tasted awesome! The sesame seeds in the crust were killer!
People in the restaurant were friendly. It was not crowded at all when I stopped by. They probably had only a table or so occupied when I picked up.
However, I did see something I wish I had not seen. The kitchen help was dragging tubs on the floor in order to store pizza dough to proof! So some dough goes in the tub and it gets covered by another tub and so on and so forth. I just hope I don’t get the pizza from the one underneath that was dragged on the floor. I sincerely hope they fix this, because I do want to go back for some yummy goodness!

Just finished sharing a pie with my husband for lunch. We ate there and the staff is great. The pizza is very good! It’s a great pizza place and defiantly will be ordering from them again. They also have outdoor seating and also a garage door that opens up the restaurant on cool days. Very nice feature.

Tried this place for the first time because we were looking for a new pizzeria in the area. I shared the apple Gorgonzola salad with my husband which was enough for the two of us and very tasty (even though they used blue cheese and not Gorgonzola). We had half margherita (a bit salty and didn’t seem fresh) and half pepperoni pie which was right out of the oven. Overall a decent meal worthy of a second trip but definitely not our favorite pizzeria in the area.

I don’t know how tonight was my 1^st time eating here, after living in the area for over 2 yrs. This is definitley our new go-​to for lunch/​dinner.
Delicious, fresh, pasta and pizza. To top it off, we had a great waitress, Gianna. The restaurant was obviously busy; however you would not know it through the ambience, and customer service. Each employee were neat, attentive, and welcoming. Big kudos to our waitress, Gianna who served us extremely well, as well as suggested excellent items, was honest, and friendly. A must-​try!!!

UPDATE: 7 months and many pizza parlors later. this is still our favorite place! If you’re a fan of the chicken or eggplant parm, get it on foccacia bread. You won’t be disappointed!

Last night, during a blizzard, my husband and I decided to risk our lives and venture out for some pizza. We were delighted to find that Esposito’s was close since we had always heard great things, and we were in the mood to try something new. We ordered their sesame crust pizza with fresh mozzarella, plum tomato sauce and pesto and it was out of this world! My husband is a chef so he usually has many complaints, but not last night! We both found that the ingredients tasted high quality and just plain delicious. Sesame seeds on a pizza is genius, by the way.
I’ve been trying a few local places for a while and I may have just found a new one.
Keep up the great work, Esposito’s!
(Thanks for making some bomb ass pizza)
