We visited on the Sunday after thanksgiving and they only had pizza, salads and cold sandwiches. They were very good about giving this information as soon as you walked in the door. We ordered pizza and a Caesar salad. The pizza was very good - would definitely try it again. The salad was good but they only had the powder Parmesan cheese Service - the staff is very friendly read more

This is the most wonderful Italian restaurant that I have tried around the sylva/cullowhee area. The food is really delicious, the drinks were really crisp and good, and the servers and cooks were very quick and friendly. The inside is very cute and nicely decorated with an earlier 2000s tuscan look. There is awesome popular music playing as you eat. the price for the portion size is also not bad at all!! read more

Service was so late as we ordered and were quoted a pickup time of 7:23-7:27, stood inside the store over 20 minutes after our quoted time waiting for our food. It gets better! At 7:48 they told us they forgot one of our dishes LOL absolute worst experience I've ever had They also don't have any take out silverware so bring your own lol! Ambiance is not all that you're eating in a sav-mor plaza. Food was decent but nothing worth waiting an hour for, really. I'd cook this same dish at home in half the time it took them to make it. read more

Excellent pizza, you could tell the sauce and crust are made on site. Wonderful flavor, perfect crust and excellent, excellent service.

Bland pizza.... definitely not a in house made dough. We got a large Hawaiian Pizza and it was about 2 bites of sauce and toppings and the rest was crust. The cheesecake was tasteless as well. read more

Cute little NY style Italian place! Food was great and our server was the best we loved her! Food was authentic NY Italian and we loved the garlic rolls they were everyone's favorite! We will definitely be back! read more

Ferrara Pizza and Pasta - Gluten free pizza - Pizza Near Me - Sylva, North Carolina

Terrible service, inattentive front server staff, incompetent kitchen, would absolutely never recommend this location. Food was so underwhelming wouldn't pay for it if it was the only place open. Ambiance? Scary, out of a shopping plaza read more

October 16th. Food was all we hoped it would be. I ordered Stromboli--absolutely delicious. My wife ordered chicken parm--she said it was excellent. I ate some of the spaghetti and it was very tasty. Not watery like our last visit. This was a tremendous improvement from our previous visit a few months ago. Glad to know the quality has returned. I give it a high recommendation. read more

I had the veggie Gluten Free pizza and it was delicious, fresh veggies and cooked just right. My husband had a calzone and he loved it. The marinara sauce was so good! Awesome service and the place is very clean. read more

The pizza is flavorful with perfectly cooked dough - crisp without being too crispy, but soft enough! The alfredo spinach and mushroom pizza slices I had were gigantic, and delicious! We had the 2-slices and a soda deal which was a great buy for lunch. My oldest daughter had a calzone, and spent the entire day we were vacationing talking about her leftovers. Fabulous flavors and delicious food. For some reason, Yelp places this restaurant behind the "East Sylva" plaza, but it is not there. It is actually in the plaza by Dollar General. If you're nearby, treat yourself! read more

Hopefully tonight was an off night. Service and kitchen was very slow. My husbands dinner came and he ate while it was hot but mine never came. Turns out my meal went to another table that ordered well after me. I understand, mistakes happen. I ended up just canceling my meal and finishing my husband's calzone. We were given a couple of cannolis. Waitress must have been having a n off night as she had attitude. read more

Ordered Ferrara's for our first night back in Sylva and we were very impressed. We called in a large 16' Meat Pizza around 8PM on Friday night and were able to pick pretty quickly after placing the order. Once the pizza got here we dug in and wow it was so good. It was loaded with all the best meats and really lived up to it's name as a Meat Pizza. Now I am giving Ferrara 5 stars because it tasted great to me but you might have to take this review with a grain of salt. By the time this pizza got here I was a few drinks in and starving from being on the road all day. So I might not have been the best judgement that night but again like I said the pizza tasted great to me and will for sure be back. read more

Ferrara Pizza and Pasta - a pizza in a box - Pizza Near Me - Sylva, North Carolina

This used to be a decent place to eat. Ever since they opened the cherokee location this location has suffered. The last two times I have eaten here it was poor quality food, messed up orders, and out of food. What Italian restaurant is out of Marinara at 6pm on Friday. Management take notice!!! read more

Service was unfriendly to the point of almost being rude. They were out of about 10 things at 2:40 in the afternoon. The food was lukewarm and the meatballs were horrible. They were soggy and weren't beef at all. My sister said her turkey sub was good. The tables are old and work not much ambiance to speak of. I don't know how this place has a 4 star review. read more

My husband and I have ordered from Ferrara's many times, considering it is right around the corner from our home. After my experience tonight, I will never be ordering from there again! The food was fine, however, when I went to pick up my order, I was greeted with attitude, aggravation, and argued with about a cup of sauce that I ordered but was told it did not come with the $30 pizza, wings, and knots I ordered! I offered to pay for it, I really did not see why one cup of marinara sauce was such a big deal, but instead I was just told over and over again that she did not see it on the ticket. Finally, the younger lady at the counter asked me with contempt "well, do you want one?" I Said "yes, please." And on my way out, the older lady gave me a dirty look. I was in the service industry for years and I do not understand how arguing over a cup of sauce helps your business?! You've lost ours. But I pray that whoever she is, she finds a job that makes her a little less miserable, soon. read more

So good! And great service! I ordered it on DoorDash and it was amazing, you can tell they have quality ingredients and you can taste the freshness!! Everything tasted like it was homemade! Best Italian food in Sylva!! read more

Great traditional Italian food in Sylva...yes please! Love the pizza here, but the pasta is great as well. Portions are huge.

Garlic knots were ELITE! All their pastas were fantastic, their catering was top notch and I looking forward to ordering from them again in the future! read more

This place is amazing! You can taste the quality of the ingredients used in every dish! The stuffed shells are absolutely amazing, you can't go wrong with their pizza and the chocolate cake was so well balanced! Highly recommend! read more

Disastrous customer service! They fouled up the online order. So in order to rectify it, the customer has to call the online company that takes the order to correct it. Seems like they should do that. No? They still didn't get the order right and only delivered half the order. We called to complain - she just hung up the phone. Nice folks. jk Do you really want to give these people your money? read more

For a Chicagoan it's difficult to find decent pizza/calzones anywhere. Who would have thought in Dillsboro NC there would be a good one. We shared a calzone and added pepperoni and sausage. Standard it comes with mozzarella and ricotta. The ricotta was not bland and was seasoned well. Although the meats we added weren't plentiful they were a good compliment. It does come with marinara for dipping. This is about as solid as you can get. My son had some meatballs which were excellent as well. The broccoli chicken pasta needs more sauce. You should be able to get a decent meal here for almost anyone. read more

Decent pizza. Unbelievable lunch specials. Very impressed with the eggplant parm and the chicken sautéed with spinach, capers and a light wine sauce. Super generous portions. The owner takes pride in his food and everyone seemed happy to be working there. read more

Pizza is fine but the lack of communication shows. Someone needs to take some charge in there.

If I could I would give 0 stars. The place was busy granted, however after ordering we waited while people who ordered after us got their food. We ordered spaghetti & meatballs & ravioli. The people after us ordered a trio and were half way done eating when I went to go ask how much longer on our order the girl rudely said they were 35 minutes backed up & the other girl said it will come out when it comes out. My husband heard this and yelled at the waitresses. We canceled our order and left. Do not go here. read more

I was in the mood for a meatball sub . Came here to order one what should I do once in a while on different types of food but the meatball sub was excellent. Nice hot melted cheese on top. . Good job read more

Horrible horrible place ... we waited 2:30 hours for food we had to leave they served a party that came after us and served them before us this was our first time (also I have to add that my family is Hispanic and we're treated very poorly) Don't recommend at all sure i bet it's good pizza but it's not worth a wait of 3 hours '!!! Not just that but it was very frustrating when other people were getting there food when we had been there for a while and they had just gotten there. (Not the servers fault) read more

In my opinion, it's the best pizzeria in the Smokies, at least here in Sylva. Been here twice now and the second time was as good as the first. Service was quick and attentive, food came out fresh and hot. Bottled beer and wine with chilled glasses. Dough and bread for grinders made in house and reminiscent of where I grew up in NH. If you want a good hearty sub, come here. If you want quick and generic, go to subway. read more

Ferrara Pizza and Pasta - Pizza Near Me - Sylva, North Carolina

Was in town visiting my daughter at Western Carolina and looking for a good Italian meal (pasta, not pizza), so decided to give this place a try, based on the reviews. The spaghetti was ok, but the lasagna not so much, especially for the price. I think the sauce on it actually ruined it. To tell you the truth, I've had better tasting lasagna from the store (ie. frozen). If that was all, I'd give it a 3, but when I picked it up, they forgot to give us our side salads and had no utensils for us to eat with. Had to drive back to get the salads, which were skimpy, and find our own utensils. Definitely not as good as the reviews imply. Very disappointing. read more

Oh my goodness they have the best everything. Pizza, Stromboli , that's all I've had. Now it is pricey, they need to rethink prices. read more

Great pizza! Takeout only right now because of Covid but I'm happy they are taking it very seriously! Nice counter help. This is our new go to place for pizza and Stromboli! read more

The food is delicious but the owner does nothing but yell and berate his employees, especially the wait staff. The restaurant has an opened kitchen so you can see and hear everything that's going on while dining in. I had dinner there a few weeks ago and that will be the last. I felt terrible and embarrassed for the employees. Learn how to treat your employees and you will be rewarded. Otherwise you're slowly losing customers. read more

I was extremely disappointed! I was the only in house customer. The service was slow, and there were plenty of wait staff. I waited forever for my pizza, and when it arrived, the pizza was COLD, my drink was not correct. The pizza was just ok. The owner was aloof and a bit rude, and the staff was on their phones the entire time. Never again! read more

I am going to give it another try after this. The pizza's flavor was ok, but it was undercooked. It should be better if they cook it and brown the cheese. read more

Went to Ferrara's tonight. Waited an hour an a half for a so so pizza at best. The place is overwhelmed with take out orders. So dine in customers suffer. Wait staff is always someone new. You can hear the owner screaming at his employees in the kitchen. What a zoo. I have had nice meals there in the past. But not lately. Maybe management will get there shit together? At this point who cares. Just poor excuses for poor service and product. read more

This place is so yummy! Fresh crispy crust, delicious toppings, and the fried calamari is amazing. The place is clean and the staff is very friendly. The prices are very reasonable too. One of our favorite spots! read more

Service is great, food is delicious and filling, and the price is great! Western students also get a discount which is always worth the try! Love love love this place!! read more

DO NOT EAT HERE. I guess in these time if you can open and serve food it doesn't matter the quality or the price. Have eaten here several hundred times in the past. Will never be back. New management or owner I'm guessing. Over priced and got terrible food/ I was so disappointed. Lived here all my life. I'm definitely telling everyone I know in Sylva/ Cullowhee. read more

This place is great. Idk what other reviewers are talking abt. Sometimes they're slow. However, they're always nice. The pizza is great and the prices are great. They do large pizzas for $10 Monday and Tuesday. That's a great deal for something that doesn't come from a chain. read more

Honestly this is the best pizza that my boyfriend and I have had in Sylva area. We have had pastas and pizzas there and are going to try the wings next. Very good, not long wait times and very nice people. read more
