Nomad Pizza. 4.0

4 (But I think we all just really like Neapolitan pizza)

Nomad Pizza began in 2006–2007 as a mobile, wood-fired pizza business founded by Tom Grim and Stalin Bedon, featuring a 1949 REO Speedwagon truck, which they purchased on eBay. Due to high demand, they expanded to brick-and-mortar locations in Hopewell, N.J. (2009), South Philadelphia, and Princeton, specializing in artisan Neapolitan-style pizza.  They now have a store in Lambertville, NJ which we visited March 15, 2026 and this is our first pizza shop review.

We were joined by our friends John D and Diane. We went on a Saturday which is typically not a good idea, especially at a river town in decent weather.  But we went early (4:00pm) and missed the crowd. Though there wasn’t a lot of parking, they have their own lot which helps a lot.

Nomad is a BYOB, but they do conveniently sell wine by the bottle. We started with a salad.  John and I had the arugula salad with a tomato, pecans, blue cheese and a lemon dressing It was very good.  John D and Diane shared a salad with pecans and blue cheese. They enjoyed it but thought the pecans were too stuck together.

Our first pizza was the special - prosciutto and artichoke.  The crust is amazing. Nice and crisp with air bubbles.  So easy to eat this type of crust.  They actually could put anything on the pizza and I would like it because of this crust.  That said, our seond pie was the Marinara.  I have had better Marinara pizzas.  There were only about 3 pieces of basil on it and the cheese got gummy kind of fast.  The sauce was good, but as I said I have had better. The two Johns shared a mushroom pizza. Heard no complaints so I am sure they enjoyed it.

John, John D and Diane, I think, would disagree with me.  They all love the pizza and were giving it a 4.5.  But I think they were just hungry for pizza. 😊

We did all agree that it was a nice place and great service.  Roomy and had an outside eating area for when the weather is better.  Will definitely go back.
