Best in the county! I moved to Newton a year and half ago and I have been trying all the local pizza shops since then. I dont do franchises. This location is by far the best. Real authentic flavors, everything is made from scratch and is fresh. Try it. Ignore the homeless. They have no impact. Great food.

We were the only ones eating inside, but owner was very friendly. Pizza was great! It's not papa johns or pizza, but freshly made pizza. Tasted fresh and simple. We enjoyed it. Owner will talk to you. I would recommend.

We just moved to the Hickory area from Texas and I wanted a NY-style pizza. We placed the order and I picked it up and had the opportunity to meet the owner. Really great guy who has a passion for making the Best Pizza I've ever had. Mr. bambino you have a new customer, my family really loved the pizza. I would highly recommend IL BAMBINI'S PIZZA.

I normally get a pizza at both Tony's and Amalfi's when I'm in town but this time I came across this spot online and noticed it had a higher rating than both of my favorite spots so I wanted to check it out. I was very glad I did. This is a top tier NY style pizza. I highly recommend you give it a try! I will definitely be back

A hidden gem of Newton for sure! Don't let this place fool you... it's tucked away in a little business strip by a mattress store and a vape store, and it looks like it maybe used to be a Chinese restaurant judging by the remaining decor, but this is hands-down the BEST pizza around. I got a slice of the sausage, mushroom, and black olive, and it was just phenomenal. Really large slice packed with toppings for 5. Well worth it. The owner is friendly and funny and will make you feel welcome. The atmosphere is kind of weird, but I think that's part of the charm. There's plenty of seating if you want to bring family or friends to dine in, but I've only been in during non-busy times when there was no one else in there, so it was kind of like stepping into a David Lynch film, which made the experience more fun for me. If you're looking for really good true NY style pizza by the slice, this is definitely the spot!
