This spot delivers a top-notch pizza experience from start to finish. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The centerpiece is the massive wood-fired oven, where you can watch the pizzas being crafted and cooked right in front of you. It adds an interactive element that makes the meal feel like more than just dining--it is an experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service is fantastic, with a team that is attentive, friendly, and clearly takes pride in what they do. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is equally impressive--clean, lively, and welcoming, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a meal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food across the board is excellent.

Wednesday night, party of 6. Here is what we liked: *Immediate seating- it is a small area. Others had reservations * They serve the local brewery Salted Turtle, couple good choices. * The Caesar salad was a good size, we shared it. * 3 of us got the To NY pizza, a good crisp crust, tasty sauce and crisp pepperonis-a solid good pizza *The margherita pizza had a good balance of mozzarella and basil. And again the crust was crisp by had a little chew. * The garlic bread was good with a ample Amount of garlic. *service was attentive and friendly What could of been better: * A deluxe pizza option would be great. Overall we had a fun night with friends with some really good pizza. Definitely would visit again read more

Came here on a Saturday evening before the busy season around 6:30 pm. We were able to get a seat inside for 3 immediately. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The inside is very cute. It is small but a couple tables and bar seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The inside is fun with a pizza oven and coastal pizza.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The menu has a lot of fun different types of pizzas. We ordered three different personal pizzas and split them all. They were all very delicious! They were very filling and we had some leftovers to take home. Some good pizza for the area! read more

Can't really speak to the food, as we didn't make it into the restaurant... Tonight my son's family and I arrived in the parking lot at 8:30. Advertised closing is 9pm. A couple walked in as we were arriving. We got out of the car and got 2 babies out of car seats and walked to the door- that we parked directly in front of. The door was locked. The hostess was standing there, looked at us and just smiled, turned and walked away. I checked my phone, it was 8:38. Now I understand closing, but it wasn't closing time. The least this young girl could have done, as she saw us unloading children from the car, would have been to politely tell us that they were closing, early. Very rude and unprofessional. As well as torture to a family with 2 small children that were hungry! read more

I've been to this place maybe 10 times over the years always ordering the same thing, but no more. Unfortunely, I got take out. If I had seen the pizza prior to getting home (8 miles away), I would have sent it back. It was almost tasteless with little or no toppings. A picture is worth a 1000 words. First picture below is what I ordered from menu, and second is what I found when I opened the box at home. There was no resemblance. I won't be back. It was a small pricey pizza to begin with. Maybe my order got mixed up with somebody else's??? Are did they change how pizza was made? read more

I love this place! Everyone here is so kind and the food is incredible! The Allora, I add garlic to it, is amazing! I'm addicted to it. You can't go wrong here with any of the pizzas. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's also a fun time watching them make it all.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Thanks guys for always having excellent service and food. Oh and for being across the street from where I live haha major plus read more

100/10! Cute little shop in a local strip mall. Not much seating but they do have bar seating, and several tables. You could watch the chef's making all the pizzas by hand which was cool. The sangria was outstanding! Also tried the antipasto plate- yum with gluten free bread and a gluten free pizza. Hands down, best gluten free crust ever. I can see where people are saying the toppings are light but it is a wood fired hand crafted place and if you want messy sloppy pizza, this is not your place! Very well done, drinks and all. Will definitely be back! read more

We had takeout from Margherita Pizza. Our first time. We weren't able to place an order by phone so had to drive to the location. Our order was Lorenzo's famous garlic bread, San Gennaro pizza, plain cheese pizza (NY Style), Pure Leaf sweet tea and cannoli. While waiting, I realized it was a good thing we showed up to place the order. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant was so noisy that the server wouldn't have been able to hear me.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The garlic bread was good. The plain cheese pizza could be a little lower in price since it had no toppings. The San Gennaro didn't have any onions or peppers. I could taste the sausages but didn't see any. Don't get me wrong. It was spicy and had flavor, but lacking in ingredients. Overall, the order was tasty but overpriced. Since they have a website, they could set up an online ordering system. I do not recommend placing any order by phone. read more

$18 for a 12 inch two topping pizza?? It tasted ok, but not great. Crust was super chewy. Wouldn't come back ever. I was being kind with three stars read more

Great food, friendly staff, a little wait but that's because it's a popular spot. Added bonus that it is in a very nice center with cute shops, a brewery and other local service spots (salon, barber, Pilates, etc.). read more

Came here with my two children (14yo and 11yo) and it was pretty good. We ordered : Chicken Meatballs- these were good, but needed some salt. Easily added to it. Wood Fire Pizza- NY cheese and Gabagool- the pizza was good. My kids liked the pizza. Calzone- loved this and so did my son! Garlic bread- also tasty. All of the food was good enough for me to return, however the prices are INSANE so I will only return on a date night with just my husband and myself. The service was quick, with no wait for us even though almost every table was full. The waitress effectively communicated timing and checked back often. The restaurant is very trendy and it is quite loud, so prepare for that. read more

Service at the bar was the best, everyone was looking to please and help with our wine and food choices. Unfortunately, that's where the five-star anticipation ended. NY Pizza? I don't think it is even close to a good, nor even an average NY pizza. It must be the water. :P Dinner began splitting a caesar salad. This was nice sized, fresh, ok dressing, no anchovies nor were they offered, and uneventful, flavorless croutons spread throughout. 3 stars, I've had better. We split two pizzas, a margherita with sausage added and a Bianca (four cheese white pizza). Look at the pictures of the pies on their website, then forget it, you will not see anything resembling those photos. The toppings were scarce. The sausage added for $4 was only 4, counted 'em myself, 4 crumbles of sausage on the whole 12-inch pie. It was disgraceful. Sauce was flavorless and the crust, although crispy, was also flavorless. The white pizza was as boring, a couple of tablespoons of ricotta which didn't even cover at least each of the 6 slices on the pie, and tasted less than average at best. Where is the mob's vendor for good cheese when you need them? The Meiomi Pinto Noir, which is usually a good "go to". tasted like the bottle was sitting opened for days. I should have sent it back, my bad. Not going back there. Sorry. read more

Absolutely delicious and thank you Meghan for excellent service. Eat here today, and you'll be returning soon! Ciao Diane read more

Super delicious! We really enjoyed the space, service and of course the pizza! We had the calzone which was over stuffed with yummy deliciousness of ricotta and mozzarella cheeses, the Stromboli, which was one of my favorites, super crisp and fresh Caesar salad, antipasto and three pizzas fed nine adults. unfortunately, they were out of the meatballs which my friends have had before and couldn't stop saying how amazing they were - next time! For pizza we had the regular cheese, Bianca, gabagool, and Consigliere. We were stuffed to the max and had almost a full leftover pizza! read more

Great place for pizza. Brick oven in sight and a nice atmosphere. We were told it would be an hour wait. So we decided to have a glass of wine while we waited, next door at The Locals Gallery and Wine Bar. (Perfect combination) Once we were seated the service was fast. read more

I had them cook a calzone. They told me 10 minutes and texted me in five minutes. I believe they have an oven an amazing oven! very high temperature slightly charged crust with a great taste!

We had the chicken meatballs, puttanesca pizza, and San gennaro pizza. The meatballs were not great, lacked flavor but the sauce somewhat made up for it. The pizzas were delicious, particularly the puttanesca flavor was great. The San gennaro was good too but we wished it had a lot more sausage. read more

Meh Trendy - pretentious - without reason. Loud. Cheap metal uncomfortable chairs. Expensive. In my opinion it's double what everything is really worth. Garlic bread: $15 Hahahahaha Now... onto the pizza. Flavorless. Crust is flat. Not light and airy the way an authentic Italian margherita pizza is like. I make better at home without a wood fired oven. One and done. read more

The service was great, and my bianca pizza was excellent. If in the mood for an outstanding individual pizza, I recommend Margherita Pizza TO GO. [[HIGHLIGHT]]While the interior decor is lovely, it is a very small restaurant and echoes, and if there are screaming children or large groups (which there were this visit), it is difficult to chat at your own table.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I can honestly say that I will never dine in this restaurant again because it's just too loud.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Sadly, there isn't suitable outdoor seating. There are tables outside, but on a sidewalk very close to parked cars, and the shopping center it is in does not have a park type area to take pizza to.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The menu is limited but quality, and unfortunately my husband was disappointed that there wasn't a full size stromboli option, but the place is called PIZZA, and that's literally what it offers. I was disappointed that it doesn't open until 5 pm. I stopped by one day on my way home from work hoping to order food to go and have a glass of wine while waiting, but it was 4:30 and closed, and I didn't want to wait a half an hour. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I didn't take any photos because the space is small and there were so many children and babies in the place, and it didn't seem appropriate but rather invasive to take pictures here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

New pizzeria in Triton Village in Surf City. Serves some appetizers, salads, Stromboli, calzones and wood fired pizza. We got a Caesar salad and pizza. It was delicious authentic Italian style pizza.

Delicious food and a nice coastal ambiance, with a vibrant energy. We arrived on a Friday night, party of 5, and had a quick wait. We shared the garlic bread and had a drink at the bar. The waitstaff was friendly and kind. Once seated and ordered dinner, the food pacing with our first course of caprese salad was good and then the pizzas and calzone. Everyone loved the food. The crusts on the pizzas were delicious. We finished with a cannoli for dessert, but if we weren't so full there were a few more options we might have ordered. We'll definitely be back on our next visit! read more

They know they're great. They know they are.Yumilisious! Be sure to check their hours and believe they open at 5 o'clock!! GFS!! You gotta try it I bet you'll love it !! read more

We ate here on a Saturday night. Not sure what more someone could ask for in a small town. Nice on the inside, great service and good pizza. I travel to NYC often for my job and eat at Joe's / Prince St etc... the only difference is here you don't have to wait an hour + in the cold for a good pizza read more

Closest thing to good pizza I've found in NC. 7/10 back in NJ, 10/10 in NC. Calzones are 10/10. Hands down best pizza in the area. read more

Ordered take out of two pizzas and an order of chicken meat balls. Pizzas were fair but very small, almost personal size. Most disappointing were the chicken meatballs. Picture on their website shows 13 meatballs for $15.00. Imagine our surprise when we opened our carry out and it only had 2 meatballs, sauce and one small slice of mozzarella cheese. Quite expensive for 2 small meatballs. Very underwhelming to say the least. Nice place but at those prices and quantities of food probably our last visit. Disappointed. read more

The food was good and the pizza was Italian with the traditional thin crust. I had a Stromboli and it was also good snd tasty with the sauce which is used in other dishes - was yummy.

We've been there twice and decided the pizza is delicious but everything else is not. The antipasta was nothing special and the Caesar salad was lousy because they do not make their own dressing. It tasted like it was straight out of a bottle. So just stick to the pizza. read more
