A hugely popular pizza chain is coming to this pizza-obsessed N.J. town - NJ.com

The city that is quickly becoming New Jersey’s pizza capital is about to get even cheesier.

Artichoke Basille, the New York-based pizzeria known for its decadent artichoke pizza among its other speciality pies, is opening a shop in Jersey City — the chain’s third Garden State location — in spring 2021.

The Jersey City restaurant comes a little more than a year after Artichoke arrived in Hoboken, the chain’s first New Jersey eatery. A Red Bank pizzeria is on the way as well, part of a plan for five locations in New Jersey that was signed in 2018.

Artichoke’s eponymous pie, which essentially swaps creamy artichoke dip for tomato sauce, is the main draw at the pizzeria. But the crab pie, vodka pie and pepperoni pie with signature cups of pepperoni are popular as well and have made the chain one of the more popular spots in New York City — popular enough that it now has locations in California, Connecticut, Arizona and now even more in New Jersey.

“We love the diversity Jersey City has to offer,” said franchisee Premal Shanghvi. “The new location is just off the Newark Avenue Pedestrian Plaza and a few short steps away from the Grove Street PATH train station that shuttles over 7 million commuters a year to and from Manhattan, so we jumped at the opportunity to bring an Artichoke Basille’s Pizza outpost to this highly trafficked area.”

The Jersey City outpost of Artichoke, set to open at 246 Bay St., isn’t just close to the PATH — it’s blocks from revered Neapolitan pizza restaurant Razza, which NJ.com named the best restaurant in Jersey City and The New York Times claimed was the best pizza in New York. It will essentially be on the same block as Porta, another highly popular Neapolitan spot. Bread and Salt, a Roman-style pizza restaurant also praised by The New York Times, isn’t far away in the Jersey City Heights.
