Pizza Knight

Decided to order our annual NYE pizza pie from Pizza Knight this year since I've had it bookmarked for a while, and I've been wanting to try their Detroit-Style pizza. We went with the Drunken Peps (mozzarella cheese, two types of pepperoni (original sliced/cup & char), homemade vodka sauce, and freshly grated pecorino Romano cheese). It was a bit too much sauce for me, especially since the sauce was meh. The actual pizza itself was also more like a focaccia rather than Detroit-Style. The edges were also too crispy for me - almost burnt. Not sure I'd try another pie but glad I got to cross this one off my list. I just hope this pie is not indicative of what my 2026 is going to look like.

My response to questions like “what are your hobbies or interests” is invariably “Pizza”. I’ve sought out the best pizza from Philly to New Haven and can wholeheartedly say that Pizza Knight is my favorite pizza joint. They whip out an undeniably quintessential New York pie (thin n crunchy yet fluffy, not soggy nor greasy, and beautiful in its simplicity): skip the one bite lists and the influencers and get to the source of what’s real if you’re searchin for a NY pie! If I ever feel like deviating from the classic, the drunken pep Detroit-style is the end-stage of pizza evolution: the pie is gone before my brain can comprehend what it’s experiencing. Oh yeah, and if I happen to not want pizza, I’ll get the best chicken tenders and garlic knots I’ve ever had. When I gave the owner my pra

Pizza Knight in Hackensack serves up seriously delicious pizza at a great price. The Detroit-style and Sicilian pies are crispy, flavorful, and loaded with fresh toppings. You get top-tier taste without breaking the bank. What really sets this place apart is the owner, Mike he’s incredibly friendly, welcoming, and treats every customer like family. His passion for good food and great service shows in every detail.

Pizza was good. Had half plain, half with some toppings (meatball, pepperoni, peppers). Good taste, not oily at all. But for me the crust was not my favorite. I prefer a somewhat foldable slice where when held the tip flops slightly. That's the pizza I grew up with. If you like a crisper, thinner crust then this is the pizza for you. Friendly service, made the pizza to order and was done exactly on time. Street parking.

I ordered from here on Sunday for Super Bowl. I do recommend to preorder as they get so busy. The pizza came hot, crispy and the right amount of everything! It was so delicious that even my 4 year old that is a picky eater ate a slice! It sure didn’t disappoint my guests at all.
