Grimaldi's is really good as well, by the way in NJ we have Brooklyn's Coal Oven Pizza which is awesome and since the owners are part of the Grimaldi family they are very similar in style and taste. Now DiFara was very savory but the wait is ridiculous, the owner needs to hire some help to keep the line moving. Watching him touch hot pizza pies with his bare hands is quaint and all but sitting around for 20 mins for a square isn't.
Are you doing any of the MTIR rides this weekend?
