Eli’s Pizza Pasta: Authentic Italian Delights in Elizabeth, NJ

Had a a personal kitchen sink and a slice of cheese and pepperoni. Both were excellent, personal size is not too small and crust to toppings ratio was spot on unlike what you can find with some other's personal pan pizzas.

I stoped here to get a quick bite to eat. I ordered chicken soup and a slice of Sicilian pizza. Soup was great fresh and hot on a cold windy day and pizza was decent . They. have tables to sit and eat too inside .Outside there are tables to eat when it is warmer weather. Bathroom was clean too .

I have been a patron of Eli’s for 3 years now, and honestly I’ve only recently found some of their best kept secrets. #1 - the grandma slice. My advice is to go to the store and sit down for a few pizza-by-the-slice’s and you’ll be able to fully understand just how delicious their pizza is. A proper pizza experience can’t be had with a pie that is delivered 40 minutes after it comes out of the oven (good too! But missing some umph). The crisp on the bottom of the slice is really something else. #2 - their Eli’s Special wrap. I won’t give away all the details, but please take my word for it. I know food, plain and simple. You can trust me. You really really can. Go try it

I had the meat lasagna dish and sat outside out the picnic tables for a nice/affordable evening out. Staff was very polite and attentive. Great place!

Overall positive experience but I think food is hit or miss. Depends on what you get. Service is good. Staff are very friendly. There’s not a lot of seating but worked for us. I think this place is sort of a local favorite. The setting is very casual and fits the local favorite theme. The starter bread and marinara sauce was delicious. For meals, I had the aglio y olio but found it lacked flavor. But I did enjoy the chunks of cooked garlic. My wife had the pepperoni pizza, which had plenty of pepperoni but not a stand-out pizza. My daughter had the chicken parmigiana which was pretty good. My son the rigatoni which was decent. And oldest son the chicken Murphy, which was very good. So overall not bad. Sort of depends on what you get.

Found this place on tik tok and it did not disappoint! 10/10 the penne vodka with breaded chicken was delicious so creamy and the chicken was flavorful and crispy! The pizza was also delicious, very fresh! It was fluffy and crunchy at the same time which was fantastic! The atmosphere was very cozy, nice and calming! Drove 40 minutes to get here and will definitely do it again!

Eli's always feels like home! Been enjoying their pizza for over 15 plus years now and I can honestly say the quality just keeps getting better. Stepped out my comfort zone and tried the grandma pie and OMG amazing!!! Literally my new go to order. I hosted an adult pizza party and this pizza was literally the first to go so I recommend trying it!

I enjoyed the pizza here. Packed with meat and cheese. But I can’t lie I wish it was a bit more flavorful. But all in all, good slices.
