Deep River Pizza

This is an excellent restaurant. The food is amazing and there is a great selection. One of my favorite places to get pizza.

Was sorry when the original owner passed and they closed down for awhile, but the team came back and did him proud. Even better than I remember.

This place is so nice it wasn’t busy when we came but the person who took our order was sweet. I got the fried chicken BLT and man is it so good. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for something quick.

? GET A BURRITO ?Alright, here’s the deal. I’m a gigantic shill for DRP, all my friends know it. Something about their pizza does it for me, favorite style, super well done for that particular style, and it’s relatively affordable.I also love their subs, all of them. Shout out to the steak bomb and the TKO (chicken bacon ranch, honey mustard, mozzarella .They’re quick, the people are always SUPER SUPER SUPER friendly, and food comes out hot.But here’s the deal… they need a rebrand.I’ve seen burritos on the menu there for years and never thought to get one. With that said, nothing about this place screams “Greek” to me besides the font on the menu and the Ακρόπολις on the logo (alright maybe a few of the specialty pizzas moussaka and town hall, I see you. Gyros, ολα εν ταξη, relax. Tonight I finally did it, I got the carne asada burrito that they had on special and it blew my socks off. For $12 (market rate for the area IMO you get a huge burrito, wrapped and easy to eat, no dripping, they grilled it, tons of steak and avocado. Man oh man, it hit the spot and I’m just so happy I could cry.Deep River Pizza Mexican. I don’t know if anyone that works there is Mexican, I don’t know if burritos are inherently Mexican, I don’t know what I don’t know and I want to be better.What I do know is that people need to know about this.Chester, Deep River, Essex is grossly devoid of a Mexican spot that’s open late BUT this is at least maybe Mexican adjacent and open late enough for me (9 pm weekdays, 10pm weekends .Get down to Deep River Pizza (Mexican? and get yourself a burrito. You’re going to be mad that nobody told you to do it before.I am thrilled.? Parking: Learn to parallel park in beautiful Deep River! Kid friendliness: Bring your kids, it’s a casual pizza place. Wheelchair accessibility: Once you get on the sidewalk, which is accessible, the door is flush.

When I came to pick up my pizza, the gentleman who was in the kitchen said he accidentally burned my pizza and was in the middle of making me a fresher one. I've never had an experience like that, 10/10
