Nello’s Pizza Wilkes-Barre is located in the same plaza as Walmart. This local family-owned restaurant serves their signature thin crust pizza and much more. They have a stocked display case full of gourmet pizza slices daily, and I have stopped by multiple times over the years to grab a quick cut of pizza on the run!
Among the slices I’ve tried are the classic New York style pizza, their hot wing pizza, and the white tomato garlic pizza. I’m a plain cheese pizza guy, so the classic NY slice is my go-to. Most readers mention the hot wing pizza as their overall favorite by a wide margin. This buffalo chicken pizza is unique because it’s made with shredded chicken. The shredded chicken is coated in their hot and sweet buffalo sauce, and is placed atop their thin crust slice.
Overall, Nello’s is super consistent and churns out a reliably delicious and thoughtfully prepared pizza every time. They serve among the best thin crust New York Style pizzas in Wilkes-Barre to boot. Make sure to share your thoughts on Nello’s Pizza in the comments below!
