I did a big catering order with this pizzeria and the food came out absolutely amazing! We ordered 100 wings and 5 XL pizzas, wings were delicious! pizza was also amazing as always. Their XL pizzas are so big, perfect for large parties. The food was delivered and arrived on time. The pizzeria called before to confirm they are making my food and called after to ask how everything was which I really appreciated! I have always loved their pizza but after today am now a forever customer! Definitely recommend going here if you need a catering order!

The best pizza I have ever had! Warm cozy atmosphere and such wonderful owners and staff! Brought friends from Colorado and California, who said when they go back home they will never find pizza this good anywhere! This is a very special place!

Great personality and service with our waitress. The portions were enough for left overs the next day. We had the chicken piccata, chicken Marsala and Stromboli. Will come back if we come thru this area again. Highly recommend it.

I was part of an 8-person group. We got seated in the back of the small dining area. We had the best service and great food. An outstanding experience with an authentic family restaurant feel.

Updating since we've become weekly customer of Calabria's in Absecon. Walk in and you are welcomed by the excellent folks, Arturo, owner & chef, and favorite server, Theresa. Dining in favorites include: Insalata Capricciosa, the largest and best salad with bruschetta; Tuscany Salad; brimming with the freshest goodness of perfectly grilled shrimp & chicken over mixed salad with cranberries, cheese-try the Feta, and other salad goodies; Steamed Clams-so deliciousness in white wine sauce that we ate them before photo-oops-that's how great; Pepperoni Pizza-Momma Mia what a crust, perfection! Terrific Salmom with veggies! Chicken, Mushroom & herbs in white wine sauce over Pasta, Rename it, "I'm in heaven with pasta." YrCappuccino, by Theresa as if made by an angel. Arturo is a master with his dough especially his bread & focaccia. Mangia! Very clean restaurant. Credit cards accepted. Gift Certificate available. Calabria received a well deserved Bravo in 2023 from the "Jersey Pizza War" Chef Umberto.
