Mario’s Pizzeria

For many locals, it’s always a toss-up, but Mario’s always ends up as a finalist for the title of best pizza on the island. Mario’s has been serving excellent pizza since 1977, and has maintained the same high quality through ownership changes.

As well as pizza, Mario’s offers one of the most delicious, diverse menus on the island, specifically serving up Italian dishes near the bay.

Manco & Manco

No Ocean City Pizza Guide would be complete without Manco & Manco , the name that’s synonymous with boardwalk pizza since 1956. This family-owned operation isn’t just about the pizza, it’s about the show. Watch skilled “piemen” spin and toss fresh dough before your eyes, creating their signature thin pies.


Whether it’s your personal favorite or not, there’s no denying the reach, reputation, and unmatched popularity of Manco & Manco Pizza in OCNJ. It’s really a right of passage.
