106 West South Orange Avenue South Orange, NJ

The Reservoir Restaurant was founded by Vincenza Agnellino in 1935.

Its original location was on the corner of 14th and 9th Avenue in the heart of the 14th ward in Newark, NJ. The 14th ward was one of three Italian enclaves in Newark with numerous amounts of bakeries, markets, special Italian stores, and shops. The Reservoir was known as one of the first places to make “tomato pie”, which is now known as pizza. Their delicious tomato pie helped them earn the name “Home of the Original Pizza Pie.” Their small menu, along with pizza, included homemade ravioli, veal cutlets, and daily specials.
