Really good pizza and appetizer the stomboli was delicious. It was busy and only one waiter un the section we were in. So she couldn't guve everyone the attention because she was so busy.

Stubborn Brother knows what they’re doing. I had a sausage and ricotta slice of pizza, and both were on point — thin, crusty dough with that perfect soft interior. They use a beautiful oven and even a specialized water-treatment system to mimic New York’s mineral profile, and you can taste the difference. From pizzas to salads, subs, and draft beer, this spot gets it right. Great atmosphere, fair prices, and attentive staff. If you’re trying to figure out your next meal, just come through and enjoy.

⭐️ 3.5 Rating Looked around for pizza place near our hotel. This one was about 11 minutes away. There was an entrance at the front but it looked like the locals were going through the back door so we followed suit. When we got in there definitely smelled like deliciousness and client service was pleasant. We ordered the twice baked garlic rolls, as well as a customizable pizza where we added bacon, mushroom, and pepperoni. We ordered a Coke and a Toledo sunrise for drinks. The twice baked garlic rolls were left to be desired. The ends were crispy but the middle just felt soggy. I wish it was actually twice baked. However, the pizza came out with really nice flavour as well as nice bottom crust. Beverages were beverages. Overall sports bar vibes..

Just moved here from the New Jersey shore area and heard this was an east coast pizza joint. It was close but not quite there. The meat balls were good but no where worth $13 for 4 little balls. The pizza was ok but to have a good east coast pizza you need to use the r right oven that is brick lined, a chewy inner an crispy outer crush, then lots of top quality cheese and a simple sauce. Their sauce was good light on cheese and crust was off, no flavor and too much flour. No sure when they opened or if they will survive but $6 for miller lite 16 oz. CAN, this isn't downtown. High priced for sure. I'll keep looking for a good pizza joint that has better food and prices or I'll just open my own Jersey Shore pizza parlor so I can get great pizza.

I had an amazing experience at The Stubborn Brother Pizza Bar! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, with a fun, laid-back vibe. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. Now, let's talk about the pizza-absolutely incredible! The crust was perfectly crisp on the outside yet soft and chewy inside, with just the right amount of char. The toppings were fresh, flavorful, and well-balanced. I tried their signature pizza, and it was one of the best l've had. The garlic knots were also a must-try— light, buttery, and packed with flavor. Pairing it all with a great selection of craft beers made the experience even better. Whether you're stopping in for a casual dinner or hanging out with friends, this place is a gem. I'll definitely be coming back!
