QUA Pizza: Reviews & Ratings
Hands down the best pizza I’ve had in New Jersey and New York! The dough is light and airy, not heavy at all, and you can really tell they use high-quality flour. The cheese is fresh and flavorful, and the olive oil is excellent. Truly amazing pizza, highly recommend!
This place is phenomenal. We ate here once last summer and their pizza was pretty great — super-fresh ingredients, great toppings, and delicious crust. I cannot emphasize those three components enough, but their dough is next level. I’ll be honest, for eating there just once a year ago, I continued to think about Qua pizza more than I probably should admit. Fast forward a year and I’m back in the Squan and, of course, back at Qua. New pizzas and still delicious…perhaps even better than last summer. Just look at those pictures. Every. Single. Pie. Was. Amazing. The roasted eggplant though…wow. Makes me want to try some of their other dishes so bad. Anyway, if you’re anywhere near Manasquan, do yourself a favor and grab as many pizzas as you can from Qua. So darn good.
Chef Matteo is an artist. If you're local, this should be in your regular rotation. If you're visiting, treat yourself to one of the best Italian restaurants around. Our family loves the chicken Milanese w/ vodka sauce, the chicken parm pizza, and the pistachio chicken hero.
Had a great experience everything was freshly prepared with the Americana Pizza, and side order of meatballs with their Red Sauce which is fabulous without the garlic. We'll be BACK.
Christina was my server, she was patient and friendly making me feel welcome. I love this style of pizza, crispy and fluffy. I got the Tomasso slice, really nice sauce to cheese ratio with no overpowering elements. The place has a nice vibe, making it excellent for dining in. Overall, I would definitely come back here
I work in Manasquan & now that we found Qua we are ordering regularly. The Roman style pizza is just amazing! Crusty on the outside & light and airy layers inside. The Ceasar salad is always fresh & delicious. I highly recommend you try the Americana pizza.
I’ve been meaning to stop in to grab a slice for years. I wish I stopped in sooner. My mouth is watering as I think about describing this perfectly crafted pizza. The light airy crust was the perfect thickness and had a soft yet toasty crunch. The quality of sauce, cheese and spices are way above average. A lot of the ingredients are sourced from Italy - non-GMO tomatoes, the flour used is quality wheat that contains no additives or added enzymes. The toppings are sourced locally or from Italy. I typically have a reaction from dairy and gluten but I had no issue with this pizza. This is probably because most of it is sourced from good quality ingredients from Italy. It’s also kid approved! My daughter absolutely loved it. This is the best pizza in this area and maybe even the best in Jersey. I can’t wait to go back for more. Update: We have been back for more multiple times. Along with the pizza, we ordered Penne Vodka and chicken cutlets with prosciutto. The spicy gnocchi special was so unique and delicious! We should’ve ordered more because everyone wanted to eat my dinner. The meal are consistently great! Everyone that we introduce this place to raves about it and wants to go back another meal.
Nice red and white themed pizzeria where the old Manasquan Pizzeria used to be Great roman style pizza, awesome service and diverse menu for non-pizza types. Nice upgrade to downtown Manasquan. Worth it to try with the entire familia.
