Respectful Teens Steal The Show During Portnoy Pizza Review At Montclair Deli
Dave Portnoy walked into Belgiovine’s in Montclair expecting to review the pizza—but it was the kids inside who ended up making an impression. During his One Bite review, the Barstool Sports founder couldn’t help but notice how unfazed the young customers were by his presence. Unlike the usual chaos that follows a Portnoy visit, these kids didn’t jump out of their seats or beg for a selfie. They sat at their table, kept their cool, and let him do his thing. “There were some kids that back in my heyday would’ve been ejaculating if they saw me,” Portnoy joked. “But they were pretty calm and …

Barstool’s Portnoy Walked Away Still Eating—And That’s All This NJ Pizza Owner Needed To See
Rob Corujo hasn't gotten much sleep since Thursday, Feb. 13. The Wayne Ale House & Pizza owner missed Dave Portnoy’s visit that afternoon and had no idea what the Barstool CEO thought of his pie. “I didn’t know what happened or what was said, so I was nervous,” Corujo admitted. “I didn’t sleep.” The verdict finally came on Wednesday, Feb. 19: 7.6 (click here to watch the One Bite review). “It’s a good score,” Corujo said. “But I checked on the video—it was in the box for more than eight minutes. And that’s not good for a pizza.” Rob Corujo opened Wayne Ale House in 2023.…

NJ Sisters Built Their Pizzeria Around Grandmother's Spinach Pies — Then Dave Portnoy Walked In
Call it fate, call it pizza magic, call it whatever you want—but when Dave Portnoy walked into Spinachio Pizza in North Haledon last week, co-owner Zana Kaloshi couldn’t believe it. For years, she had been trying to get the Barstool Sports CEO to come in. Then, last Thursday, Feb. 13, she was literally talking about it when it happened. "I was like, ‘How do I get Dave in here? It’s impossible!’” Kaloshi said. “Fifteen minutes later, he walked in. It was like we manifested him." Portnoy, whose One Bite pizza reviews can make or break a business, got his hands on Spinachio’s skinny pizza—a r…

ESPN Legend Goes Head-To-Head With Dave Portnoy Over Hairline Roast
ESPN legend Scott Van Pelt wasn’t about to let Barstool Sports CEO Dave Portnoy get a head start on mocking a college athlete’s hairline. During the Pittsburgh Panthers’ Thursday, Dec. 26 game against the Toledo Rockets, Portnoy zeroed in on offensive lineman Ryan Baer’s thinning locks after a grueling six-overtime showdown. “This 6OT game just blessed us with this hairline,” Portnoy said of the 22-year-old athlete. “How old are college kids again?” The viral tweet racked up 9.6 million views, but Brookeville, MD's Van Pelt—who has embraced his own baldness with pride—wasn’t here for…

Portnoy Gifts Fan Buffalo Chicken Slice During Review Of Jersey Shore Pizzeria
Buffalo chicken pizza isn't Dave Portnoy's taste. And neither is a floppy crust. The Barstool CEO, continuing his "One Bite" review stint along the Jersey Shore stopped by Salerno's in Hazlet. The Bethany Road pizzeria threw in a free slice of buffalo chicken, but Portnoy made it abundantly clear, it's not his thing. So much so that he gave it to a nearby fan. Portnoy ultimately gave the pizza 7.3, deducting points for a floppy crust, but the fan reviewed his free slice of buffalo chicken: 8.3.

Pizza? At A Brewery? Here's How Portnoy Scored Pies At This NJ Beer Spot
The Jersey Shore pizza tour continues. At a brewery. Barstool Sports CEO Dave Portnoy stopped by Alternate Ending Beer Co. in Aberdeen to try its pies. To be clear, the kitchen is run by Talula's, an Asbury Park-based restaurant whose website touts sourdough pizza. Portnoy, on the second stop of his "One Bite" review tour, said the pie was Detroit-style, and more of a winter pizza. "It looks heavy, it is heavy," he said. "It's good stuff — it's heavy." His final score? 7.2.

Pizza From Brothers' NJ Shop Leaves Crunch To Be Desired, Portnoy Says
Dave Portnoy is kicking off another "One Bite" New Jersey pizza review tour in Old Bridge. Barstool Sports' CEO stopped by Via Sposito in Old Bridge, where he said he had one day to load up on pies before his colonoscopy. That's besides the point. On to the pizza. Portnoy ultimately gave the pizza a 7.4, telling owner Anthony Esposito his pies could use a little bit more crunch — but putting it in a cardboard box definitely wasn't helping. Via Sposito is owned by Anthony and his brother, Vincent Esposito Jr., both fourth generation Italians whose family previously lived in Brooklyn,…
