Giovanni's Pizza

Convenient location but alright pizza for the price.Would rather go to Benny's up the block

.

> Location (10/10): conveniently located at the intersection of Washington St. and Sixth St.

> Food variety (8/10): upon entrance, you are greeted with an array of 5+ types of pizza (i.e. plain cheese, pepperoni, broccoli, etc.). For the first couple occasions, the slices taste pretty good - but the breads are bit on the dry side. They also sell breadsticks and pasta, but a full customization of your pizza slices is probably not possible (i.e. Dominos).

> Best time?: probably around lunch (11~1) where the pizza "pies" are freshly baked and placed on the platter.

> Free wifi (10/10): I'll update this later with the actual speed of ping hops, but it's fast enough. Also, they give out the wifi password if you ask them over the counter. Nice!

> Can I do my homework? (8/10): although the environment isn't as comfortable as Starbucks or B&N, it's pretty quiet most of the time. So maybe?

For a true New Jersey slice of pizza come here. They have a good variety, their delivery is fast and the pizza is fresh. I definitely recommend Giovanni's!!

When ever I come into Hoboken with my mom, this is where we always come in. I'm only giving it four stars though due to not trying half of everything on the menu, but the food is quite good for a good price. The waitress I had was very friendly, and where the restaurants sits, I suggest sitting outside to eat on a beautiful sunny warm day. The food is very good if your coming into Hoboken for lunch.

There is definitely a dearth of great pizza in Hoboken, but not necessarily good pizza. This was always how Giovanni's was described to me when I came around and asked someone about it. While it doesn't rank in any "best of" lists, this is decent, serviceable pizza. I got an order of around 6 pizzas which only took around 20 minutes, and was on my way. I was just around the blocks, so the pies were still piping hot when I got to them. This was decent, NY-style pizza, nothing more. Somewhat fluffy end crust with a crisp but thick-ish underside, good cheese, decent sauce that was somewhat overwhelmed by the cheese. This was an above the average street slice, but not by much. I'd probably be here regularly if I went to Stevens Tech, but instead I'd rather stick to my Italian delis when I do come to Hoboken.
