Excellent pizza. Would have given 5 stars if pizza was baked a minute longer cause I like it crispy. I always get plain cheese pizza to taste the crust, sauce and cheese. All great here.

We have ordered pizza from here quite a few times. I would say it is above average, but definitely not my favorite. I prefer uncle oogie's and I usually only order here when oogie's has too crazy of a wait. The pizza here is boardwalk style, with the cheese and sauce swirled on it. I have never had any issues with my order. The price is reasonable, obviously going to be more money than somewhere off the island but it's in line with the other pizza places in Sea Isle. They have a variety of other menu items such as cheesesteaks, wings, pasta, hoagies but I have not tried any of them

I had a weeks vacation and was determined to try every pizza place in sea isle city. I got to say there was a lot of good pizza out there for sure. In the end I chose Phil's as the best I have tasted.
I read some of the reviews about how sweet the sauce is and I agree it is sweet but it was really good. The staff were great and I really enjoyed the pizza
I will definitely be back
I hope this review helps

Excellent! Family friendly place! Always a line, but worth the wait. I recommend the lasagna pizza- so good! Staff are polite and helpful. Cute outdoor covered eating area or perfect take out on the way back from the beach.

Best pizza I have ever had…if you know shore pizza you should go here. It is better than Manco & Manco. The staff is super friendly and they are open very late. The food comes out fast and hot and it is great to eat after the bars because it is so close! 10/10 recommend.

Extremely slow, they blamed being understaffed. Food was mediocre, I'd have given 3 stars just rating that but removed two more due to the massive wait times (45+ minutes) and the fact they bring out food separately, so some people get their food 15-20 minutes before others.

I do like the pizza 50% because it's nostalgic and have been going there since the 80's but the other 50% is the sauce. We ordered pizza on way home from the beach. Hand tossed pies with sandy bottom (cornmeal) the pizza is a bit on the greasy side but still good. I wish they would have cooked a tab bit longer and been crispy.
I did give 4 stars because of the service. The people that work here act like they hate their jobs which might be the case but it's sabotaging the business' reputation. Total rudeness in the staff here and not really sure why. Not

At best mediocre pizza sloppily made with flavorless, sugary sauce. You can expect large patches of crust to be missing sauce and cheese. They scrimp on pepperoni, too.

I'm a big fan of their pizza. Plain and pepperoni my favorite place to get pizza down the shore. Some friday nights you can't even get ahold of them it's that busy! My family is also a huge fan of the cheesesteak Stromboli. I probably eat it once a week when I am there

Phils is the best pizza on the island. Pizza 10/10. Great customer service. New owners really turned things around. No more grumpy old men yelling. My family and I were very satisfied with everything. My son had the chicken tenders and my husband had the meatball parm. Very satisfied.

Called to try Phil's Famous Pizza and their Upside Down specialty pie for the first time tonight. I had to call about a dozen times before finally getting through (busy signals, usually a good sign). When I finally did get through, someone greeted me and then hastily put me on hold by letting me sit on a live phone line, hearing all going on at the restaurant. While on hold for over four minutes, I heard at least three other phone orders come in and be taken, while I just sat......and sat......and sat. SAD!

I hung up, called Oogie's and after successfully ordering with them in 3

Best pizza ever no joke I literally refuse all other pizza because I can wait to eat Phil's every weekend in the summer it's excellent and they are so nice. I know bad pizza when I see it and this is truly good New York style pizza I can taste the sauce just writing this

Food is Great! Best pizza in Sea Isle and more! Real Italian cooking. Sauce is magnifico! Definitely recommend.
Front end staff friendly with a few exceptions. Not sure about 'order, sit down, and a waiter will bring your food' thing but it's a beach town. Food is the best.

The pizza and fries tasted good. I paid $3.00 extra for pepperoni on top, but I ended up receiving 8 pieces on the entire pie. The prices are high just as all places by the beach. The lady behind the counter was rude, but the server that lives above the restaurant was great. They require customers to pay upfront, and they don't accept tips on credit cards.

Below average pizza.

Now let's get to the review.

As you can see their "Famous Italian Hoagie" is a roll with lettuce and other toppings; that's it. The hoagie has virtually no meat on it. It had 1 slice of meat per side of the hoagie. 1 slice of ham 1 slice of salami 1 slice of capicola. Wawa is across the street if you actually want a hoagie with meat on it instead of bread with condiments like this place "famously" serves.

In the past couple of months I've been diving into pizzas and I can say that this place is in my top pizza places. My Boyfriend and I decided to stop here because of the swirl of the cheese and sauce and really, this sauce is on point, add some oregano or chilly flakes and you have the perfect pizza. A bonus is that slices are huge!

If you're ever on sea isle stop here, you won't be disappointed.

Really enjoyed their sausage and meatball pizza. The crust is crisp and the way they do their sauce on the cheese seems to make it taste even better. Would recommend trying it! (Sorry for the missing pieces in the photos lol it went fast)
