  Owner is rude. I will never go back there again. Our large group included a boys basketball team and their parents. We called ahead to reserve some tables. When we got there we found that the boys were sent to another room out of the dining area even though there were plenty of tables empty next to us. When we asked what was happening the owner/manager explained that he was keeping those tables open for other customers. We felt like second class citizens. The pizza is average at best. The dough is bland and the tap soda has a funny taste. Stay away.

  I love Chicken Francaise, and I believe Pennington Pizza has the best for miles around.  They have served it for the 23 years I've gone to the restaurant, and they remain consistent.  But the great thing is, that all their dishes are wonderful.

  I was on a road trip from Rhode Island to Virginia. I stopped in here for a late lunch/early dinner. The food was excellent and the service was great. They have an extensive menu and it was very clean. Wish I lived near the place.

  I am basing my 5-star review on one item only - the chicken with vodka sauce pizza.  I don't typically enjoy overly thick slices of pizza but it is quite necessary in this circumstance.  One slice of this should be a sufficient amount for lunch for most people.

  I've always had a great experience at Pennington Pizza. All the employees are friendly and your food comes out quickly, which is a plus if you're in a hurry. I've visited several times and have enjoyed all of the food.
  
  The pizza is decent, albeit a little greasy. If you're looking for comfort food, choose the Tortellini Deep Dish--covered with cheese sauce and perfectly cooked pasta.
  
  My favorite pasta dish has always been the rigatoni a la vodka--the perfect portion of pasta for lunch, with creamy sauce and pasta cooked al dente. It's also a great deal--only about $8 or $9 for a generous portion and delicious bread! Ordering a dish for dinner sets you back around $13 or so, depending on what you order, but it comes with salad or soup, and bread that comes brushed with olive oil.
  
  All in all, it's a decent pizza place and a good place to come if you want a casual Italian dinner.

  I went to high school in Pennington and have since moved out of state. On the rare occasion I pass through town I stop in for their tortellini deep dish Alfredo pizza that on my opinion is unbelievable. The first time I ordered it was 15 years ago, the last time was yesterday and it was still as amazing as it was then. I also love that the same people still work there as they did when I was in high school which speaks volumes for the family owned welcoming vibe they give off. If you're into constantly good pizza served by nice people, this place is a must.

  Pennington Pizza isn't anything to write home about. The sauce on the pie was bland. The crust was clearly pre-made frozen crust - not fresh at all. The cheese slid off the slice. I agree with Steve G on his assessment too.

  The food here is as good as any Italian restaurant that you will find in the area. Pizza is great and the menu is large. They offer many chicken and veal dishes and all are great. It can be very crowded on Friday night, but tables open up quickly. The staff and owners know their stuff and will try to make whatever you are in the mood for.

  (2.25 stars)  "Alright" pizza; the crust (thin, but not dry) and toppings (abundant and good quality) clearly trumped the sauce (thin and acidic) and cheese (off-flavors).  Their sandwiches are also pretty good.  Typical pizza house environment, with plenty of parking.
