Maruca’s Tomato Pies’ story began back in 1950 in Trenton, NJ before making its way to the Jersey Shore earning it’s spot on ‘The Best On the Boards’ status as well as becoming a true boardwalk legend and must go destination. One glance at the giant tomato pies and it’s signature swirl is enough to draw you in, it’s unique blend of flavor, from a buttery taste from Maruca’s special cheese blend to the sweetness of a fresh jersey tomato sauce with their signature swirl on top.

**Edit – I feel the need to make an edit on my review. I still think the pizza overall is good but I’m tired of waiting in a huge line for 15-20 min and then another 15-20 min to get a slice or two of pizza. Absolutely ridiculous. You wait all that time after ordering and you get basically cold slices. Why the wait then? I always see pies right there on the counter that slices can be grabbed from very quickly and easily. But for some reason there’s always a long line and a long wait. It doesn’t seem they have any type of management ever or anybody who’s in charge just a bunch of teens high School / college kids who obviously have no idea had to do things efficiently. Yet after waiting in a long line to order to in turn wait another fifteen or more minutes for a slice they sure do push the tip. I agree with others the seaside heights location does a much better job. This place really needs to do something with having somebody there who is in charge and keeps things moving. People coming there want to grab a quick slice for themselves or their hungry kids. They don’t want to wait 20 to 30 minutes for a slice or two. **

Overall, this place was a good experience. The pizza was really good, and the slice was big. At $6.50 for a slice in a shore town, that’s pretty reasonable in my book. They have a few tables to share but the line does get long. I would definitely suggest you try at least a slice on your next visit to Asbury Park beach.

The place has declined this year. In the past, the pizza was excellent and service prompt. Been there 3 times this year and, each time, the same poor experience. The pizza was soggy and cold. Service was inattentive. They now only accept credit cards, no cash. They even have the audacity to charge a fee for using a credit card when CC is the only form of payment they accept. They went out of their way to remind me how to add a tip to the credit card. Perhaps the management has changed this year. Too bad, it WAS one of my favs.

I’ve been enjoying Maruca’s Tomato Pies (on the boardwalk @ Seaside) for decades. Whatever they are serving in Asbury is an imposter. At $6.50 per slice it should have been life changing, but alas it was like having over cooked (burnt crust) frozen pizza.

Great pizza! Especially the sauce Please heat the pizzas a little more before serving so the cheese can melt.

Food was amazing but was only lukewarm. Almost as good as New York City pizza and definitely a great substitute

I think it was absolutely delicious, but small and overpriced. Beach food! The crust was perfect, however I would have liked more sauce. Overall a tasty, expensive slice, therefore I cannot give it 5 stars.

Definitely one of the best pizza I ever had. Right on the boardwalk. Great spot for a bite after a nice walk on the boardwalk/beach ⛱. I always try to stop by when I’m in the area.

New Jersey style crispy crust pizza at its finest! These pies are enormous and the sauce is delicious. Just what I wanted from my boardwalk experience!
