Rome wasn’t built in a day, and neither was Renato’s Pizza Masters. Our pizzas and dishes have been perfected over 60 years of doing what we do best: consistently challenging ourselves to work harder and reinventing our recipes for the modern and contemporary palate.
We are a pizzeria, fine dining restaurant, and catering service but not necessarily in that order. We are pizza masters who respect the power of authentic Italian cuisine. Our team moves fast, eager to feed the hungry diners of Jersey City. Our pizzas are perfectly crafted — cheesy goodness, warm crust, perfect thickness, distinct sauces. Our tomatoes are sourced from Stanislaus, California, from a family-owned company with traditional farming practices and the finest tomatoes. Our spaces were designed to bring people together.
Owned and operated by the DeMarchi family — Richie and his two sons, Mark and Lorenzo, Renato’s Pizza Masters ultimately believes in celebrating authentic Italian cuisine with friends and family, delivering great service to all, and supporting the Jersey City community every single day.
Over the years, we have sponsored numerous little league teams including the Washington Park Little League, donated to local hospitals, and supported local church functions at St. Joseph’s, St. Anne’s, and St. Nicholas. We are also benefactors of the parks and recreations of Jersey City and have supported other organizations like The Dante Alighieri Society and Police Benevolent Association.
