Does anyone else find the name of this place extremely annoying or is it just me?

Oh, it's beyond annoying and their name is exactly what we'd like to do with the place.

But you did have to put up with a horrible name your entire visit. I'll forget about ever going there.

Ah, well you'll be missing out then. I had to hold my nose at the name too, the first time I went in there. But it was worth it!

Not sure that the Jersey Shore is considered the standard bearer for pizza, at least not in the New York region.

It's a distinctive name meant to convey a commonly used New Yawk euphemism, I thought it did its job.

Unfortunately I'd have to agree with the assessment that the name is also a self-fulfilling prophecy of sorts. We had dinner there one night back in the Fall and it took them, no joke, forty-five minutes to get our large cheese pie and single specialty slice onto our table (and they'd forgotten the specialty slice as well). The pizza was nothing remarkable, good enough but not great and clearly not enough to offset unforgivable service.

And even if it was just an isolated "bad night" it doesn't really matter as there are plenty of decent places to get my pizza fix.

I can't stand it. Gives me flashbacks of marketing class and "what not to do" when naming your establishment....
