Enjay's Pizza

What a shame. I used to go here years ago and absolutely loved it. Back then it was ran by the incredible folks at Pitrucos. Something has clearly changed. Despite being on the menu outside , our waitress had no idea about the cauliflower sandwich- in fact she looked at us like we were insane and said we have never had that. pizza quality had gone from amazing to poor. I don't know what happened but I can't imagine Pitrucos is still involved . They have gone back to being a great college bar with bad food.

We had no idea this was located inside Smokey Joe's, the infamous Penn bar! The walls are filled with photos of Penn athletes and there are stained glass lights with the Penn logo. My husband is an alum and my daughter attends so I've been hearing about this bar for years - it lived up to the hype. The pizza was good (had a supreme) as was the pretzel appetizer. At 10 pm anyone under 21 is kicked out and it turns into a classic college bar. For a short time I felt like a college kid again. Our waiter was named Halo and he was awesome - friendly and so funny. Will definitely go back

Enjays is always a good choice. Always.I always get the half mushroom and onion, and half supreme and it's BOMB! Easily one of my top 3 favorite pizza spots in Philly!The wings are bomb too.

If you're looking for New York style pizza, this place has it, grease and floppiness and all (those are good things, by the way). If you get a large and have trouble eating the giant slices, try folding them over! They take custom orders (e.g. half and half) and season the pizzas well such that even the plain hits the spot, though I would love to have even more basil. The pizza's not cheap so it may not be an efficient way of feeding a crowd, but they would work great for feeding a pair or small group. As someone who grew up in New Jersey (perhaps the origin of the name Enjay's??), it's great to have this place close by for when I crave the stuff from local pizzerias back home. Support the business by calling directly to pick up rather than using Grubhub, but note that it'll be cash-only.

Finally. After over two years in Philadelphia, I finally found a pizza that stacks up to NYC pizza. I had pretty much given up - don't get me wrong, there's decent pizza to be found in Philly, and I still love Taconneli's, but finding a New York-style pie done right seemed to be a lost cause. Until last night.The reviews and photos of pizzas from Enjay's were intriguing enough to make it our pick for this week's takeout. The prices are a bit higher than the norm, but what would you expect from a pizza place off the Penn campus? But also, IMHO, totally worth it.After picking up our pie we had a 15 minute walk home, but I had to open the box to get a whiff of the fresh out of the oven pizza, and that was the first good sign - total nostalgia hit to the beloved Brooklyn pizza of my childhood. For the best experience, you really need to eat the pizza on the spot, but I treasure my routine too much to sacrifice it to a slight improvement in taste, so I didn't get to try it until we got home. Reheated, it was still pretty awesome- the crust is VERY thin, and the cheese is VERY ample. Two of the smallest slices from the large pie and I was definitely done for the night.The cheese is what most reminds me of New York - the mozzarella and seasoning blend were perfect. The tomato sauce was pretty great too, and while the crust was a little thinner than I'd prefer, just be sure to reheat it in the oven to get it crispy, or if you're doing things the right way (which I wasn't) it should work pretty great if eaten on the spot.The one aspect of the experience that wasn't worth it was the garlic knots. They were mediocre, but really, just dont bother. $18 for a large plain pie? Worth it? $4 for three garlic knots? Please, the good places in Brooklyn will give you a half dozen for that price and they'll be a lot better, too. But they weren't disappointing enough to detract from a 5-star review. My mission to find good NYC-style pizza in Philadelphia has finally been achieved!

The place itself is a pretty cool place in a pretty cool setting. The inside of the building is pretty cool too with pictures all over. I asked what is better burger or pizza? She said both. Typical answer. However when pushed came to shove she said pizza and I am glad she did.I had a supreme small pizza for myself. I was hungry and it filled me right up. It was great. I would definitely come back again. Price was little over 20 dollars with the tip.

Seriously brilliant food! Look, if you want pizza that's mediocre, just to soak up your booze; this may not be for you. If you want fabulous pizza, that has all the hallmarks of a homemade pizza; this is it!I am 55 years old, and have been living in Philly for 35 of them. Obviously I have ordered some pizza, in that time. As of now, this is the only place I'll order from again, ever.Where have you been all my life?! Muwah!Oh, I'd say more and add pics, but I''m about to order. Cheers.

Enjay's Pizza you are absolutely incredible, I had an incredible experience here today. The menu is impressive, I was overwhelmed with the choices. Everything we bought was excellent and the menu itself was to die for. Awesome. Great service and staff. Bottom line: Enjay's Pizza = awesome.

I think that my pizza was missing a small sliver. Taste test? Pizza tasted good. A little stingy on the pepperoni. Oil tasted like vegetable oil. Should use extra virgin olive oil. Makes me question the quality of ingredients.
