Nomad Pizza is a little outpost in Hopewell, New Jersey. Tucked away a bit from the road, it can be easily missed if you are not on the lookout for it. We arrived for dinner around five in the afternoon and were the first to arrive. The staff was still preparing for dinner, but we were promptly seated and our orders swiftly taken.
I ordered the Margherita di Bufala pizza with a caesar salad to begin the meal. The salad was closer to a wedge style than the traditional pre-chopped salad. Though I prefer the pre-chopped variety, cutting it was not too much trouble. I found the salad to require more dressing than was originally on it, but the waitress was glad to bring extra.
The neapolitan style pizzas were prepared using the brick oven. The individual sized pizzas do not come sliced so it is your choice how you want to cut the pizza. The pizza was quite tasty with a very fresh tomato taste. The cheese was very soft and almost melted in your mouth, although there could have been more on the pizza. However, one flaw I found with the pizza was the fact that certain pieces were hard to pick up due to the tomato sauce soaking through the thin bread.
Overall, I would recommend this small pizza joint. The ingredients are very fresh and the pizza satisfying. However, the prices are a bit high for individual pizzas.
