Man v. Food's Casey Webb visited Tony Boloney's in Hoboken, New Jersey, a pizzeria and sandwich shop known for its stuffed pizzas and oversized specialty sandwiches, several named after regulars and local characters. The Hoboken shop was the original location of a small chain that later added outposts in Jersey City, Atlantic City, and Arlington, Virginia. Since the episode aired, Hoboken Girl reported the closure on July 31, 2025, after a kitchen fire at the Hoboken store, and reported in October 2025 that the property owner was still working through insurance and fire-remediation issues. A Yelp listing updated August 2026 still marks the location permanently closed. Hoboken Girl also reported that the separate Jersey City location closed for good, while the Atlantic City and Arlington, Virginia locations were reported by the same outlet as still operating. As of the most recent reporting, no reopening date for the Hoboken store had been announced.
