New Jersey: Pizza Den

In Princeton, Pizza Den is a low-key local favorite that focuses on doing a few styles of pizza exceptionally well. The core menu features four signature pies: a Classic Pie (with your choice of toppings, from baby kale and ricotta to sausage or chicken), a Brooklyn Pie with fresh mozzarella, tomato sauce, olive oil and basil, a Sauceless Pie that swaps tomato sauce for a trio of cheeses plus garlic and herbs, and a traditional Tomato Pie highlighting tangy sauce and fresh basil. Beyond those, Pizza Den keeps things interesting with a rotating selection of “trending” specialty pizzas; one standout is the Buffalo Soldier, which comes topped with grilled chicken, Buffalo hot sauce, and house-made blue cheese dressing. By emphasizing quality over quantity, this unassuming spot has earned rave reviews as one of New Jersey’s best-kept pizza secrets.
