I ordered takeout from Rapone's over the weekend, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. The service at the restaurant was great. I was greeted promptly and warmly, and the bartender quickly gathered my order, including a slice of cheesecake that looked too good in the front display to pass up. Even though my order was to-go, the atmosphere inside the restaurant stood out. The space felt relaxed and comfortable, not overly loud even though it was more than half full. A gentleman was playing soft jazz on the piano in the corner at just the right volume, which added a really nice touch to the overall vibe. But the food is the star. I ordered the Vegetariana and the Margherita, and both were excellent. The brick-oven crust had the perfect texture: crisp and lightly charred on the outside with a soft, chewy interior that held up beautifully under the toppings. The Vegetariana was loaded with mushrooms, olives, roasted red peppers, and fresh greens over a bright tomato sauce and melted cheese. The toppings were generous but balanced, and everything tasted fresh. The Margherita was simple and classic, with fresh mozzarella, tomato, and basil. The ingredients really shine in a pizza like this, and it was outstanding. And the cheesecake absolutely lived up to the promise from the display case: rich, smooth, and dense with a buttery graham crust. A perfect finish to the meal. Great service, a welcoming atmosphere, and excellent brick-oven pizza. I'll definitely be back. read more

When you think it can't get any better, it does! Loved this pizza special (sausage, broccoli rabe, sun dried tomatoes) so much that I'm going to back to get another one to freeze. The food is always fresh & reasonably priced. Atmosphere is very chill & staff is friendly. There are soooo many Italian choices in NMB & I've tried almost all of them. Rapone is our go-to regularly. Mangia!! read more

Rapone Brick Oven - Pizza special- sausage, broccoli rabe, & sun dried tomatoes - Pizza Near Me - North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

I've been several times and really enjoy the food. The staff is so nice and welcoming. I'm giving this review three stars because I'm disappointed in what passes as a chicken add-on up charge. The chicken was thinly sliced and not very much of it given the pice point. I don't mind paying $25 for a pasta dish but I expected heartier pieces of chicken. It almost was like it was shaved v cut. I'll be back but I'll be ordering a different dish. Their pizzas are fantastic and the lasagna reminds me of a hometown favorite. read more

After a long day, we were a bit too tired to eat at a restaurants so we decided to get a pizza to go. After reviewing the options online, Rappone, Brick Oven seemed the logical choice. You can smell the smoke from the pizza crust as soon as you get out of the car, which is even more pronounced when you walk into the restaurant. My pizza was waiting when I arrived, but the dessert display looked so good, I had to add a large piece of chocolate Cake, and a servicing of Tiramisu. The Margherita pizza was cooked perfectly and tasted even better. The crust was dark like we like it, and the fresh tomato based sauce and fresh Mozzarella were amazing. The chocolate Cake was fresh, moist, with Creamy icing and delicious. The wife typically does not like Chocolate cake, but she loved this one. The Tiramisu didn't disappoint either. Service was great so 5 stars all the way around. read more

The food and service were great! We enjoyed the pizzas and calzone. Everyone was very welcoming and friendly.

The food was delicious!! The service was attentive, personal and efficient. The ambience gave small Italian cafe vibes and we were there for it!! We couldn't resist getting two appetizers- the flatbread special sounded too good to pass up- and it was. Rigatoni is this pasta of the house and it tastes handmade. Highly recommend the little hidden gem! read more

Small venue with wonderful staff. The pizza was great. Would I return? Heck yes! Beer was cold and wine was "okay" for my wine friend. We even got some piano music to accompany the meal. Oh! Get there early. We got there at 4:30 and felt lucky to get a table! read more

Locals - you're incredibly lucky to have a place like this in your backyard. Visitors - make this a MUST STOP for a night during your trip. Every single thing our family ordered was delicious. We got the pizza for an appetizer, a special of ravioli with pink sauce, homemade lasagna, and chicken parm. The ravioli was by far the best tasting thing we got, but all the food was so good. Everything was fresh - sauces, pastas, pizza, it really tasted like home cooked food and not a premade takeout! Our server was so attentive and thoughtful and it's just a really nice little place to eat! read more

I think I have told y'all before that I'm a pizza authority! Got the certificate, badge and all! I know pizza! A authentic pizza expert! Ok, now that I have proven my expertise. I had some great pizza today. Truly good brick oven pizza. My wife actually picked out this spot in North Myrtle Beach and she had me at brick oven! As far as I am concerned if pizza is not cooked in a traditional Woodfired brick oven then it's just microwave pizza! Ha! Someone is gonna kill me for saying that! But this pizza spot was nice. Small, quant, had a guy playing the piano and a real Italian Bisto kinda vibe. We went with the margarita pizza which always a good test for pizza. Avoid all the extra topping because they often mask the true landmarks of pizza, the crust, the sauce, and the cheese. Rapone hit all marks. Thin crispy crust, zesty sauce and real buffalo mozzarella cheese. The service was awesome and we topped it off with some made to order cannolis! Winning! read more

Small location with good food. Staff is friendly. Mixed drinks are made well. The bread served before the meal was very good and I can't decide which I liked more. We ordered 3 pizzas for our group, including a pepperoni, margherita and a white pizza with prosciutto and mushrooms. All were enjoyed. One of our family members ordered the tortellini and it looked really yummy. read more

This restaurant really made me feel back home in Europe. The ingredients used are great quality, the ambiance is casual and very welcoming. That's the key! I went with my family twice in 3 days! I had the Ribeye twice (cooked on wood !) and we also had the Grouper special with lemon pasta (delicious) and we tried some pizzas and mussels. Everything was perfect! The owner is very friendly and really cares about his customers. I'm lactose intolerant so he told me no worries, we cook on demand! You can also talk to him and have a conversation which is very valuable! We need more small restaurants like this in USA! Also, their house wine is very decent and their wine list is very good price! You can get a wine (big) carafe for 20$. I would definitely come have a nice, casual dinner like at home. If you appreciate real food and like eating without rushing (the way it should be), this is your place! Also, service was great both days. Young servers, very attentive and helpful, cool people! Btw, they do espressos! Hopefully we go back to Myrtle again! I currently live in Raleigh. read more

The inside of this restaurant is so charming and welcoming, and when we went they even had a live pianist! The food was pretty good, and well portioned- we each managed to bring half of our meals home. However, the prices weren't great. My fettuccine alfredo with chicken was nearly 25$. However, it's a good place to split a meal :) read more

The beginning of this experience was subpar. We were sat down and no one came to our table for 25 mins. We had to flag someone down. I don't know where the error occurred, but it was irritating. The rest of the meal was great. Our server, Jacob, once we got him was very good. He took our whole order at once and the food came out quickly. The pizzas were all delicious. The quality and ingredients were amazing. The Raponese is closest to a meat lovers. The Sweet and Spicy leaned toward a sweeter pizza with the honey. All the food was great. They did forget a salad and bread with the pasta though. There was nice Italian theming throughout the restaurant. It's pretty small inside, so I definitely recommend reservations. Overall, this restaurant was great, but the beginning did hamper the experience. read more

Our fave pizza place at the beach was closed when we visited in August, so we took the opportunity to try someplace totally new to us. The reviews looked good and it was really close to our building. Our server was very funny and helpful with menu choices. There was also live music for a little bit when we first arrived. We each got our own pizza with the intention of taking some home for the next day. One of my sons did not accomplish that mission because he wanted to finish it while we were there (he's 15 and his metabolism is stellar right now). I really enjoyed the spicy oil drizzled on top - a suggestion by our server, and it was a VERY good meal and experience. Having gone to the same place repeatedly for over 10 years, I don't think the kids were upset with our unexpected change up. Looking forward to going again when they have their winter break in a couple of months! read more

Rapone Brick Oven - "Brooklyn Style" pizza (after scarfing down first two slices) - Pizza Near Me - North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

After debating which of the several Italian restaurants we would choose for dinner, Rapone won out based on menu variety and reviews. I'm glad we did the research because the food was excellent. My mom had a pizza which had a delightfully thin crispy crust and plenty of sauce and cheese. I chose the Chicken and shrimp Marsala that was a special and it's was also very tasty. My sister and Dad chose lasagna which they said was delicious and my daughter chose the other special which was tortellini and shrimp with sun-dried tomatoes in a buttery lemon broth. I tasted hers and it was my favorite. Our waitress was great and the atmosphere was pleasant. Fresh bread was brought to the table as we needed it. One concern I had before choosing was the fact they had a live piano player which worried me that it would be too loud. We were seated within 10 feet of the piano and surprisingly it was a soft sound that added nicely to the ambiance without preventing us from hearing each other in conversation. There was plenty of food, it was delicious, and it was an enjoyable atmosphere, what more could you ask for? read more

I enjoyed the brick oven pizza. Service was a bit slow but we are from up North so take that into consideration. Beer was nice and cold !

Amazing, delicious, outstanding and a must try! This spot drew us because it has brick oven pizza, but when we ordered we also go their pesto pasta which I have to say is probably the best I've ever tried...even compared to some I had in Italy! So creamy and rich yet not overly so worth the perfect blend of sauce to pasta. And the pesto was supposedly vegan with no cheese added. Either way it was worth it Unforgettable! The pizzas were also amazing and they have lots of variety for putting on your own toppings or getting one of the house specialties. They have happy hour specials as well so if you go early you can sit at the bar and get some deals. But either way this is a definite must try when I'm the area! read more

My husband and I were looking for a place with brick oven pizza and we accidentally found Rapone Brick Oven. The waiter was prompt and incredibly friendly. The atmosphere was family oriented and seemed to be a place the locals must frequent given the warm greetings and recognition. The owner also took the time to stop by and see how we liked the food. We tried the Sweet and Spicy pizza. If you don't care for spice, ask to leave the cherry peppers off. The pizza has a wonderful crisp and chewy dough topped with pepperoni, sausage, soppressata, fresh mozzarella, shredded mozzarella, San marzano tomatoes, and a wonderful drizzle of honey to balance out the pizza. The pizza was flavorful and hands down one of the best I've had in the area. We also had the Rigatoni Alla Vodka with prosciutto, roasted red peppers and onion. The pasta was creamy and absolutely fantastic, incredibly flavorful. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and we will definitely be back. read more

This might be my go to Pizza place when I visit Myrtle Beach. We read how great the reviews on Yelp and decided to give them a try. They only open from 4 to 9, so we got there when they opened, we were the first ones there and their dining room filled up quick, it's not a large place. They also have a Baby Grand Piano where someone was playing. Our Server Lauren came over and warmly greeted us. We ordered several dishes besides Pizza (See Pics) everything was fresh and homemade, it came out hot too. We got their Signature Pizza called the Raponese Pizza and it was Superb, fresh Mozzarella and toppings, thin crust. All the Staff was friendly. I can't wait to come back. read more
