CJ & D’s Trenton Pies

South PhiladelphiaPizza$-$$

Don't be fooled by the name. CJ&D’s Trenton Tomato Pies is found not in New Jersey, but inside Cartesian Brewing in South Philadelphia. If it's Trenton style tomato pie you're looking for, no need to cross state lines. Expect crispy crusts with cheese on the bottom and sauce on top. Their menu has included the classic tomato pie, the Nonna, with crushed tomatoes and garlic, and a white pie featuring mozzarella and ricotta with spinach.
