Forest Hills Pizzeria is much more than a standard pizzeria. Located in the historic Station Square, Forest Hills Pizzeria delivers fabulous pizza, impressive salads, pasta dishes, and hand crafted sandwiches seven days a week. I witnessed dozens of diners grabbing dinner to go to a concert at the nearby Forest Hills Stadium. Make your way to Forest Hills Pizzeria for a slice of heaven.
Everything is made fresh on the spot here, right in front of your eyes in the open kitchen. It’s too hot to cook so let the chefs do their magic while you stay cool. This casual, family-friendly eatery has a comfortable dining area with banquettes and tidy wooden tables. Soft drinks and beer and wine are available, making this a great option for a casual delicious meal.
Forest Hills Pizzeria bakes up hundreds of pies for delivery and dine-in with so many varieties such as truffle mushroom pizza with its woodsy aroma, spicy BBQ chicken pizza, and meatlovers topped with beef sausage, beef pepperoni, turkey bacon, fresh basil, and fluffy ricotta. I tried the buratta slice of pizza with creamy buratta mozzarella and ripe, sweet cherry tomatoes which was perfect for summer. Vegan pizza is topped with sun-dried tomatoes, black olives, red onion, parsley, and extra virgin olive oil. The classic square Grandma pie is a Sicilian recipe with marinara sauce, spicy vodka sauce, fresh mozzarella, basil, and Reggiano Parmigiano. The rolls and calzones make a great lunch or snack.
Pasta dishes at Forest Hills Pizzeria are custom made for you right before your eyes. Simply choose the type of pasta you want, the sauce you’d like, and the toppings. I chose linguine with lemony scampi sauce, topped with four plump, juicy shrimp and slices of fresh lemon. This light and tasty dish was perfectly prepared and served hot. Choose from Alfredo sauce, carbonara, marinara, pesto, oil and garlic, or pesto for your rigatoni, fettuccine, penne, spaghetti, and linguine and have it your way, without lifting a finger.
Cool off with a freshly tossed salad with all the ingredients laid out in the refrigerated case. The chef will create your customized salad with leafy greens, tomatoes, artichokes, olives, grains, carrots, peppers and more. Add a protein, such as grilled chicken, diced turkey, Cajun chicken, boiled egg, or avocado for a small charge and you’ve got a meal with your favorite dressing.
For lunch, enjoy cold sandwiches such as turkey bacon, avocado and cheese on crusty bread, or roasted pepper and mozzarella for an Italian treat. Hot sandwiches really satisfy like the meatball marinara with melted mozzarella, and the classic chicken parmigiana, warm and toasty.
There’s a gelato case when you walk in which will certainly tempt you, especially in this heat. A full coffee and espresso bar steams with your favorite brews, both hot and cold. Forest Hills Pizzeria is open for breakfast, so convenient before jumping on the train. Bagels, muffins, croissants, and savory egg sandwiches like the Forest Hills Hungry Man can be wrapped up swiftly with your favorite coffee to get on your way, or relax and eat inside.
