What Did Dave Portnoy Think Of Pompeii Pizza In New Jersey?

As New Jerseyans, we know that our pizza is superior, but it’s still nice when an outsider confirms it.

Barstool Sports’ Dave Portnoy has made a career out of that with his One Bite Pizza reviews and he’s back in the Garden State trying out our various pizzerias.

In one of his most recent videos, Portnoy stopped in Union County to try Pompeii Pizza in Clark.

He described the pizza as “light,” which is to his liking. Even more important is that it had a “pretty good undercarriage.”

Thank goodness, because the man hates a floppy pizza.

“Good, light, thin pizza… 7.6? I think this is a solid 7.6.”

“I could house this in four seconds,” he says with a full mouth.

Pompeii Pizzeria is located at 72 Westfield Ave in Clark. They’re open during the following hours:

Monday: 11:30 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.
Tuesday: 11:30 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.
Wednesday: 11:30 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.
Thursday: 11:30 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.
Friday: 11:30 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.
Saturday: 11:30 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.
Sunday: 12:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.

It’s a shame that Portnoy only reviews plain pies because, according to Pompeii’s website, no trip to Clark is complete without trying the famous Chicken Bacon Ranch Pie.

El Presidente will have to go back for that because it sounds really good.

New and classic favorites: The best dive bars in New Jersey

The term "dive bar" used to be something derogatory. Nowadays it's more of a badge of honor to say to own one, go to one, or work at one.

We started in South Jersey, stopped A LOT in Central Jersey and ended in North Jersey. We left out the Jersey Shore bar because there are just too many to choose from. If your favorite isn't on the list, don't be offended, just tell us about it. Here we go...
