A popular New Jersey pizza shop is rolling out the dough on a new location set to open this spring.

Pies on Main, owned by Ricky and Brandi DiGiovanna, is set to open at 580 N. Main St. in Barnegat, just behind the McDonald’s, according to an Instagram post.

“We’re so excited for this new journey,” Brandi said in the video shared.

The husband-and-wife duo currently operate Pies on Nine South in Forked River. The new shop will be a “copy and paste” of that location in a larger space. They previously ran Pies on Nine in Beachwood and Pies on 37 in Toms River.

“You will see all of the fan favorites. All of our recipes are going to be the same,” Brandi added. “I hope to expand the pizza counter a little bit more and the glass itself to have more of a variety. That’ll be exciting because we’ll have more pizzas in the display and more room for people to sit.”

The menu spotlights the star of the show: the pies. Options range from classics like plain, white and Sicilian to gourmet offerings, including the Special with pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, onions and peppers, as well as hot honey margarita, chicken wing, shrimp scampi and chicken vodka sauce pies.

Beyond the pies, the menu includes Italian entrees such as chicken piccata and veal parmesan, as well as seafood dishes and specialty pastas, along with paninis, cheesesteaks, wraps and salads.

Pies on Main will offer dine-in, takeout and delivery service to Barnegat, Waretown and Manahawkin.

The DiGiovannas plan to open Pies on Main in “four to five months,” though an official date has not yet been announced. Follow along on Instagram for updates.
