Manco & Manco Pizza

Liked the broccoli pizza. Must admit a bias toward NY style pizza. The pepperoni was somewhat greasy, and dabbing with a napkin helped. Not so much luck with the spinach pie, which lacked flavor. Avoid other soft drinks; GET the Birch beer soda! Great location on the boardwalk.

Great pizza, amazing even! Unfortunately after many MANY visits with God awful service we will never pay 30+ $$ for a pizza again. We will miss the food but not being disrespected by the undereducated meat heads they insist on employing.

We got four different slices, all excellent with the signature crispy crust. The broccoli white pizza is a great option for those wanting a veggy option. The pepperoni is pretty standard. The sausage was very good, loaded with sausage bits. Finally the white pizza was a great choice for those wanting a light bite. We ate at the one near the food court but it seems like every manco’s was packed.

This is the best pizza. I’ve lived all across the country (military, and life I suppose). I eat pizza everywhere. Because it’s pizza and you should.
Growing up in SE PA, family vacations were always to OCNJ.
We always ate at M&M (though they had a different/​another name then …)
I just thought it was tradition, always getting pizza here.
After being away for over a decade, I brought my own family to enjoy OCNJ and we went to Manco & Manco. And we ate. And I don’t even feel bad for saying it: I could eat a whole pizza from here. Daily. By myself.
12 years away, and the pizza is still the most delicious pizza I’ve had the pleasure to devour.

First time there, was with a group of 8 friends and we got two pizzas, with various toppings on each quarter. There was about 10 – 15 minute wait to get seated, but we got in pretty quickly for a large group and was nice to sit in off the board walk and in the shade. The service was okay, got our table’s order and pizza delivered before the other table got their order placed despite sitting at same time. The menu was only posted on some flashing screens with various ads, so was a bit tricky ordering for people that did not see the screens or didn’t know the topping options. The crust was good, and the pizza was brought out quickly, but the spinach topping I ordered was still cold on the pizza, wasn’t in the oven long enough to heat up the added items. Would say don’t get toppings, or go somewhere else.

Pizza at a price.
Ocean City NJ is clearly a family dumping ground for the less recluse types. No booze and a pizza shop every 10 yards, so it seems. Of course the quality varies as the changes in the ocean just off the boardwalk.
This joint has a quality pie that stands out a bit above most of the rest. Slightly crispy crust with ample cheese and perfect amount of tasty sauce, I also liked the white options. Not many speciality choices. Kinda straight forward pizza with all your usual toppings.
So why only 3 stars. Simple. $ 4 for a slice of plain white pizza with 3 thinly sliced tomatoes is robbery in my book. This ain’t NYC. Actually most of the walk and talk slices in NYC are less than $ 2. They have you trapped between the beach and the long walk to free parking.
Cash only always urks me.
Let’s face it on any boardwalk they take advantage of the tourists. For the price and limited options, there are similar pizza spots both north and south of here.

Great pizza and worth the wait. Friendly fast staff and you cannot go wrong with the birch beer. I love that there is garlic, oregano and red peppers on each table.

Pizza is good. Come with cash because they gauge you at their ATM. If you don’t want to take cards fine but don’t take people at the ATM it’s super tacky…

Trust me when I say I know and love pizza. I could eat it morning noon and night. It’s just ok. Definitely not worthy of a $ 4 price per slice for pepperoni. I will say though the damn seagulls confiscated my first price and they did give me the second one for free. That was very nice of them. Would I go back probably not but not bad. Good customer service however.

My favorite spot for greasy pizza! I absolutely love Manco and Manco, and often drive down in the winter just to have pizza. This location does not have a restroom, but the one 2 blocks down does.

This place has had a line out the door for over 50 years. What’s the point of a Unilocal review? Pizza was a little overpriced, but why not when there’s always a line?

This is as much a review of my childhood as it of the pizza. How can you not give this legend a great review? Yes there is better pizza out there but that’s not what this is abut. This is reliving every summer from that very first bite. The slice with your parents when they introduced you to it. The slice with your buddies. The slices you bought for the girl you took there. The first slice you introduce your kids to. Thanks for being consistent.

I’m giving it 3 stars because it is better than a few other boardwalk spots. It is overpriced at around $ 4 for a small piece of pepperoni. The pizza tastes OK nothing great but at least it has a little bit of cheese and an acceptable crust.
The seating is not the most comfortable but what do you expect on the boardwalk. Drink prices are average with no free refills. Service was OK.

Mack and Manco’s used to be pretty good stuff. Seems in the past few years it has been tasting more and more like holy communion/​cardboard/​waferish. There are so many other choices, that are better tasting. $ 20 for a pie is nuts, yeah I understand it is the beach, but it seems like greed to me. Is there any reason to have so many places on the boardwalk. Pizza is probably the cheapest foods to make, on their scale, I would say $ 2.00 a pie. Do you really need that many people working there. If it is that good, people will wait for it…

This is the place to get pizza. They have great plain pizza and soda to go with it. There are no bars in ocean city, being a dry town, so this is a pretty good spot to hangout on the boardwalk for food. They make the pizza right in front of you, if you sit at the bar counter, which is pretty cool to see. Service is fast. They have a good amount of table seating as well as a counter for takeout ordering. There are 3 locations on the boardwalk.

If Pizza achieved perfection… it would be given the name «Manco & Manco».
My favorite since my youth, albeit, it was in Wildwood at Mack’s Pizza. (Mack’s was a breakaway faction of the family. Compare the Wildwood slices and the Ocean City slices and you will find them identical with no variation)
I brought a friend in from Kansas to try Manco once… and she was very impressed with the flavor/​taste. The crust is the perfect consistency with just a the right amount of «flop». The cheese and tomato sauce combine like no other pizza tandem I’ve tasted. It is divine. I could eat this pizza EVERY night of vacation, but… my doctor might not agree with that effort… lol.
You would be a fool not to try this pizza in OC before you leave. Make the effort… you will thank yourself.

I’d like to start off by saying that Manco & Manco (or whatever it used to be) was never a staple of my childhood, so I honestly have no desire to go there when I visit Ocean City. My boyfriend, however, is in love with this pizza, so when he wants to go, I must follow.
My most recent experience was pretty typical — we sat at the counter, placed our order within 5 minutes (it’s ALWAYS packed), pizza came out a few minutes later, we ate, we paid, we left.
While everyone raves about a regular slice of pizza, I’m sitting back and enjoying the white pizza, which is 10x better than a slice of plain (and like double the price — really? come on!) The cheese is plentiful, the crust is thin, the flavor is there. It’s everything I ever wanted in a slice of white.
Next time you’re there — take a break from the norm and try the white slices. (White with broccoli — mmmmmm)

This location is not the best. Service was crap. Pizza was meh. The thing is, the place wasn’t even that busy.
My friend asked if they had ketchup (yes, I know, it is disgusting & an abomination to pizza) but our server seriously looked at her and said «No, we don’t have that weird stuff.» Not even in a joking manner, he straight up insulted her.

This used to be Mack and Manco’s But whatever you want to call it, it’s still the best pizza on the boards. This crust is amazing, not thick like a Pittsburgh style pizza and not thin like a NY pizza. Perfectly crispy and chewy. The sauce can only be described as perfect, not too sweet, not too savory, somewhere in between, and the cheese is a creamy, perfect, bubbly, topping for this pie. I don’t know if it’s the salt air, the atmosphere, but pizza always tastes better on the boardwalk..

Anyone who thinks this is less than five star pizza doesn’t deserve to eat here. It’s Mack… I mean, Manco & Frickin’ Manco!
They top their pies with a pizza sauce hose and you consume your slice with a birch beer. They don’t use ricotta on the white pie, so there’s no point in ordering it unless you just want cheese overload. No toppings needed, just cheese, sauce, and that unique, crispy crust.
The new name is redundant, but it is still the only boardwalk pizza I ever want to eat.
