There are few pies that equal those at Matthew's. Some pizza joints excel through quality, others through creativity. This is where you take your friends from New York or Chicago. Start with the thick, crunchy/chewy crust. Add the chunky, lightly spiced sauce. Both are made fresh everyday. After that, it matters little what combination of cheese or other ingredients you put on top. In fact, the Original and one of the most popular pizzas at Matthew's eschews cheese and toppings entirely and lets you revel in the unadulterated joy of sauce and crust. If you want other toppings, you can get them, but you can easily start here, then work your way through the other menu selections first, which include the Popular (tomatoes and mozzarella), the Great White (cheese, sweet onions, no tomatoes) and Anna's Stuffed (just ask).
There are two sizes of pizza, small and large. Eat-in or get it to go. But if you grab it on the run, treat it carefully, because there are no boxes at Matthew's. Your pie will come clamshelled between two paper plates and wrapped in butcher paper. If you have the time, grab a table. The atmosphere is noteworthy because it is neither "gourmet" or dive. It's just a nice place that has been doing one thing uniquely well since the original Matthew, whose picture hangs on the back wall, opened the pizzeria in 1943. -- Tod Harrick

Best Pizza
MDellapenn - 07/02/2008I have been eating pizza from there since I was a small child. Now that I live on the shore in Salisbury MD I do not get to eat there as much as I would like.

Best Pizza and Service
cellitto31 - 06/26/2008My name is Wayne Gioioso, my father was born in Italy and my family visits' Italy each year. Mathew's Pizza is better then any pizza eaten in Italy or the USA. Thank you for the high quilty ingredients used in your product and giving the citizens of the USA a taste of real italian food a great service.
Excellent pizza and service!
mrsflea87 - 06/25/2008Matthew's Pizza is second to none! They have such a variety to choose from - both unique and traditional (each pie is as good or better than the next)! Their crab pizza is heavenly and all true pizza lovers must try their Three Cheese pizza! You can't just have one slice!! Customer service is among the best you'll find in Baltimore. Matthew's Pizza has the total package - excellent food AND oustanding service - all at a reasonable price. :)
Tops in my book
Renv105 - 06/17/2008I've been a very satisfied customer of Matthew's Pizza for the past 15 years. I've taken newcomers there and they can see for themselves why I rave about their pizza pie. Not only is Matthew's Pizza the best in Baltimore--it's hands down the best I've ever had--nobody can come close. They also have a very friendly staff.
