Ponzetti’s Pizza

After a afternoon and into the evening of drinking, food was needed. The choice was made for pizza, so here is where we went. Started out with beer, we them moved on to a very tasty pizza. Our server was great and gave us a good laugh when she made a joke about Miss Cleo.

The pizza was amazing, antipasto was amazing as well. I try pizza every where I go and I’m from Chicago. 5 of 5 on the haywain pizza.

To start we had the breadsticks, very good. It was flat, with good garlic/​cheese seasoning and marinara sauce (asked for extra sauce). The marinara was on the sweeter side (see pizza sauce, below), however nonetheless delicious!
Great, thin-​crust, flame-​baked pizza. The pizza sauce was sweeter than typical, however I appreciate their interpretation of a great-​tasting pizza! Not too much cheese. I would recommend the pepperoni as a topping. The crust had a yummy char on it. I dipped my pizza crust in the extra marinara sauce we ordered earlier. The service was excellent; the waitresses were very friendly and personable. I’ll be coming back, might try the sausage next time!

We are here twice on our trip to Ocean City. The pizza was good — not great but good and the wings were also good– but again, not great. We sat at the bar the first night and the service was friendly. The second time we brought two others with us and sat at a table. The waitress had the personality of a grapefruit but her promptness wasn’t too hateful. This place was just a half block from where we were staying so we are here twice out of convenience.

Awesome pizza and service. I liked how quick they were with our food. The pizza was really flavorful and the right thickness! They have a 2 piece special and the slices are massive! Their steak and cheese subs are really good too! Fresh ingredients, clean shop, fast service, and nice workers.

I don’t like pizza, I know I’m crazy. But I really like the pizza here. I actually jones for it every now and then. It’s clear Pomzetti’s used fresh ingredients. The crust is prefect and interacts very well with the cheese Ana sauce. Do it! Forgot Grotto’s or anything on the boards, go to Ponzetti’s.

Best pizza in OC! My family and I have to have it at least once during our annual summer vacation.

The best pizza in Ocean City. If you are a sausage lover, getting sausage crumbles on the pizza is soooo good! We always sit at the bar to watch Os games and get a few drinks too. The orange crushes are perfect too! The best is the late night happy hour when 11p-​2a you can get cheap beer, rails and $ 2 slices. We go here pretty much every weekend and they never disappoint!

Best pizza we’ve had in OC, hands down. The sauce is delicious, and the pepperoni is awesome!

We stopped in on a whim and a serious pizza craving. So glad we found this place. The service was good, with one server able to take care of everyone in the dining room (it was 2:30 in the afternoon). The pizza was fresh and homemade.
Try the eggplant fries, they are amazing!

This is the best pizza on the beach. I grew up in Bethany so know it’s sacrilege to speak against Grotto’s, but Ponzetti’s pizza is better. Better crust, better sauce, comparable cheese. Just better. Highly recommend the Barbeque chicken pie… one of the best I’ve had.

The sauce is really sweet, but I like it. The crust is thin and the pizzas are fresh. I get one every time I am in the area.

The pizza was great. We ordered take-​out and had the pizza with 4 toppings. The crust was crispy and the tomato sauce tasty. The tossed salad was just average but the house dressing delicious. Would definitely go back for more!

GREAT pizza. The guy who said the pizza was dessert-​like was either on crack or sprinkled sugar on his pie. The sauce and crust are perfect.
We had the Red Hot Chili Poppers (just a classic jalapeño popper, but well done), the Tomato Pie, the Vegetable Pizza, and the classic Cheese & Tomato. Make sure to ask whether the specialty pizzas have sauce — not all do. The spice blend is rockin’.
Don’t even bitter with Grotto or Dough Rollers. Great value, classic pizza.

I am back! Family favorite for many years. Decent food and prices in non pretentious atmosphere. Would suggest using fresh rather than dried basil to step up their game in a pizza– loving town. Btw who eats pizza with their hands? Use a fork and knife and get some manners.

Pizza was average drinks were weak and our server confused. It filled a need, we were really hungry after a long day and the pizza took care of the void. I really should just lower my expectations when in OC and accept ‘unoffensive’ as a win for a drinking and dining experience.
Returned in 2015. Yep, Ponzettis is a model of consistency.

Absolutely love the pizza here! We live in SC and a highlight of going to the OC is the fantastic pizza. We only get it with Pepperoni because that’s all you need. The crust is light and crispy. I really wish we had Ponzetti’s in SC. With that being said, time to plan a trip up north!

I been whating to go here for a long time. I came down in the month of November on a off season. After watching movie. I stop by to have an Italian resturant. Eggplant parmean with pasta.
I got my meal the Eggplant was cut thin and over cooked. Pasta was cook and iris the posta with cold water. make the posta don’t hold the spaghetti sauce. My brother posta was cooked meat and thron in with the sauce.
Doctor Peper was off and I asked for a coffee and charge for both of them.
I gone to the restroom and found that the door was off center. One of the Stall in the restroom door missing. Toilet was diry and it was little dark in the restroom. They was big on big screen TV.
Also there was no ramp for wheel chair in front of the restront. I hear it was big on pizza and chicken wing. No I will don’t come back again. What is was is no more.

Bad service
bad pizza
bad wings
open late
It’s been there a long time & have always meant to go back. I finally did in the summer of 2013. Some things are best left in the past (25 years ago). My memories of Ponzetti’s were good. The experience and food of today = not good.

Pleasantly surprised! We were headed to the movie theatre across the street from Ponzetti’s…we tried Bull on the Beach and Nick’s Ribs, but they were both packed so Ponzetti’s was our last resort.
We weren’t expecting much… just another average pizza joint at the beach. The décor was dated, but fine for us & there are some arcade games for the kids. Our server took forever to show up and we were starting to regret our decision. However, when the pizzas came out they were fantastic!
We had a 12″ cheese — great sweet tomato sauce and dotted with cheese, not thick and congealed like so many others. We also had a 12″ with sausage, peppers & onions, which was delicious too. Loved the sausage & there was a perfect amount of toppings. Both pizzas were thin with just the right amount of char.
I had a garden salad, which was ok. Typical iceberg lettuce, but it was a decent size for $ 4. I felt my husband’s Caesar salad was a rip off though — smaller than mine & $ 5. Overall, for $ 40 we had 2 sodas, 2 salads & 2 12″ pizzas and we took home a whole pizza leftover.
The service was lacking. It didn’t seem like the servers had their own designated sections, which made it hard to find our server when she was helping tables on the other side of the restaurant. But the pizza was great & this will be our new pizza spot in OC. Great location for before or after a movie too!
