Person who answered the phone did not understand the order I initially asked for was a white pizza, which they had but it's not called 'white pizza.' It's the Palermo.... First thing listed on the menu. Oh well. Sooooo I got a mushroom and pepperoni. Hot and tasty. The pizza was yummy! First time ordering will eat there again for sure. Next time I'll order my Palermo. read more

My parents drove to Charlotte from Florida and arrived late in the evening and were starving. They asked me to pick up a pizza to go and bring it to their hotel room upon their arrival, and The Crust was suggested. One thing I enjoyed was that you can call in your order to one of the restaurant staff, and this made it feel like an "authentic" pizza joint, as opposed to a simple online order. They were cool with making a few substitutions to their house specialties; I ordered their vegetable lovers pizza and added Italian sausage. The pizza was ready within 15 minutes, and the counter was very quick and the staff was very pleasant and accommodating. My parents said it was easily the best pizza they've ever had! Highly recommended for take-out! Hope to dine inside at some point, as the ambience looks fun and friendly! read more

Was in the mood for a pizza and stumbled upon this place. I hadn't heard of them before so was excited to try. Place was clean and staff friendly. I got the 10in bacon pesto, it didn't take long to come out but was fresh and piping hot with toppings all the way to the edge. It was absolutely delish. The flavors worked so well together. read more

This was one of my Favorite pizza places in Charlotte. You couldn't beat the price and the quality of food. The prices have soared in the last year. Going to $22 for a 14" pizza from 15 is insane. Don't get me wrong the pizza is still good. To top it off, we got moldy cheese on our salad. The waitress was nice enough to remove the salad from our bill, but you would have thought a manager would have come by to apologize. The friendly staff is the only reason Crust got 2 stars on this trip. Will definitely be rethinking where we go for pizza going forward. read more

The Crust Pizza - Moldy cheese served on Caesar salad - Pizza Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Don't get me wrong. This is our favorite pizza in Charlotte but $22 for a 14in cheese pizza is insane. A year ago that same pizza was $15. A $7 increase in one year is ridiculous. Then you get popped for $2.50 a topping. Our bill tonight with tip was $70 for a family of three. A 14in 3 topping pizza, a small cheese pizza, side of creamy parm dressing, and 3 fountain drinks. That is crazy money for what you're actually getting. Normally I don't care about price when it comes to great food which is exactly what they have here but $22 for a 14in plain pizza is just diabolical. Won't do it anymore. read more

To be fair I haven't eaten here. I tried. I walked in to sign saying seat yourself but there was not a clean table in the place and nobody working on them. In fact the only employee I saw was some guy slowly sweeping the floor. I left because it was such a gross mess read more

This was a great pizza place. The crust was thin crust and was awesome. The service was wonderful. We were a party of 7 with 2 kids and 3 pizzas. I ordered mine lightly done and it was perfect. The prices were reasonable. Couldn't have been happier with our dining experience. read more

This is the only encounter I have had to what is close to what I know to be a tavern style pizza. I am from Chicago and this is our pizza style (not deep dish). Situated next to the PGA Superstore in Ballyntine. A visit to the store to repair an unfortunately broken 3 metal, I had to check out the place. The staff greeted me warmly and I ordered up a pie, waiting at the bar with a cold brew. Out came the pie with pepperoni cupped and plentiful. What struck me first was the crust. I guess this is why it's in the name. The rest of the elements, sauce and cheese, totally worked together. This is their pie, which they call Midwestern or Ohio style. Alls I know is I won't use broken golf clubs as an excuse to drive 30 miles from Rock Hill (not know for great pizza joints or any type of food, for that matter, except maybe Garden Cafe in York) to get pizza from The Crust Pizza. It's really good. So good that I will be lobbying for a location to be established in Rock Hill or Fort Mill or someplace damn closer! SPECIAL NOTE: A lot of the local pizza places around these parts use cut up sausage links for their sausage (puke emoji). I would strongly encourage y'all to switch to blended pork sausage in bulk (heck, Publix makes a respectable Italian sausage). After all, pizza is an Italian thing. You want it greasy and you want to taste the fennel. read more

I really great casual pizza place. I went for lunch and ordered a pizza and salad. The portion sizes are really great. If you are thinking about ordering double toppings. don't do it, you don't need to LOL. I normally order double pepperoni but when we got our pizza my husband and I looked at each other and was like maybe we didn't need double. They are really kind and generous the service was amazing and the manager or owner gave us free Parmesan sauce to try which was delicious. read more

We ordered the 14-inch Pepperoni Pizza. The pizza was not very good. It reminded us of a frozen pizza that was very greasy. We also ordered the Caesar salad. The dressing is heavy on the garlic. read more

The Crust Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

The crust does it again, every time I visit regardless of which location it's always fire! This visit once again did not disappoint, the service was on point as well as the pizza. The restaurant was clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful. They were not busy during my visit, but I'm sure even in busier times they would do just the same. The pizza is fantastic, it's not your run of the mill chain pizza, it's more tavern style with better flavor and heavier toppings. Do yourself a favor and head over if pizza is your jam, it won't disappoint. read more

The pizza was decent, but the experience was kinda all over the place. Looked like they only had one cook on a Saturday night, and you could tell they were struggling to keep up. Service was just okay -- there were a bunch of servers around, but no one really seemed to be paying attention to their tables. It would've been nice if someone checked in or gave an update since the food was taking a while. Might give them another shot, but not sure yet. read more

where did this idiotic trend start where the place refuses to do half-and-half pizza? I've been ordering pizzas for over a half century and half the country and only ran int this problem lately at Inizio and this place. Yes the plain cheese pizza was good, and the wait staff courteous, but seriously folks .... why can a customer not get something entirely reasonable? Won't be back. read more

A unique pizza. Probably not for everyone, but I enjoyed it as did my wife. Spoke with the owner who was running food. The restaurant was clean and well put together. It looked like a chain restaurant in a good way, professional not cheesy. It smelled like a pizzeria as soon as I walked it, which is different than a lot of places. read more

The Crust Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I recently stopped by The Crust for a solo lunch. There is plenty of parking in the Promenade and dedicated spaces for takeout. There is a large bar with TVs, along with booth and table seating in the remainder of the restaurant. The bar predominantly has local beer from Sycamore, NODA, OMB, and Legion. They also have wine in the bottle and on tap. The staff was pleasant and attentive. The bartenders Rico and Acey were chatty and regularly checked in to see if everything was good. The bar also has purse/coat hooks and electrical plugs underneath the counter which will be a big plus during football season when people spend hours in a restaurant. They have pizza, subs, salads and dessert. Everything is moderately priced ranging from $10 to $20. They have off the menu pizzas which are similar to pizzas of the day. My bartender didn't know what they were when I asked, but quickly came back to let me know that there were 2: a BLT and a Spicy pizza that featured the hot honey sauce. But I stuck to my old faithfuls. I ordered: - House Salad: It was fresh and large. Definitely shareable. I substituted the vinaigrette for the creamy Parmesan dressing. The salad came out with fully dressed and a side of Parmesan dressing. They quickly remade it, but I was charged $0.50 for the dressing even though it replaced the vinaigrette. That would have been nice to know in advance. - Pizza: Pepperoni with basil is my favorite. So that's what I ordered with a side of red sauce. The side of marinara was ice cold. I'm still not sure if you need to ordered it heated, but it may be worth the extra detail to avoid having to send it back if you want it hot. This location of the Crust is new and it is obvious that they are still working out small kinks, but overall I had good food and service during my first visit. I enjoyed the music, comfortable seating, and the temperature was ambient. I am sure the few minor missteps are due to their newness. Whenever I had a concern, it was quickly rectified. I'll be coming back to try the hot honey drizzled on my pizza. Come on out and try this neighborhood pizza joint for yourself. read more

No half / half selection available! That sucks. Would have been nice because my wife doesn't eat meat. read more

I love this place!!! The best pizza ever! My daughter is gluten free and they have the best gluten free pizza dough!!

Was meeting a friend for dinner and arrived a little early. I decided to order a single meatball to start while I looked over the menu. The meatball was delicious and the sauce perfectly tart. When my friend arrived, we decided to share a chopped wedge salad and a BBQ pizza. Everything was cooked to perfection and tasted delicious. Our server was beyond attentive and did everything to be sure we had what we needed throughout our meal. read more

Good pizza but some quirks make it so/so. They do not do partial orders (I.e., half and half). In my blended taste family that is problematic. Had to hunt down the servers a few times. read more

Best pizza and salads. Absolutely love this place. And it is always SO clean. Servers are so so sweet and kind

Being from Chicago, I am very picky about my pizza and on the hunt for the perfect slice. Unfortunately, The Crust is not the spot for me. Overall I liked their crust and how crispy it is. Toppings were generous but the girl was DRY. Hardly any sauce and the sauce that was on there, was lacking flavor. This wasn't the worst pizza I've had out here but certainly not the best. My search shall continue! read more

The mixed green salad reads delicious, but only had trace amounts of Gorgonzola cheese, the dressing was good. I enjoyed it later with added. Cheese. The pizza was more like cheese bread. It had a good amount of cheese and lots of pepperonis, but it was dry to me, the crust was a tasty cracker crust. The single meatball was good but served in cold plain sauce. The service was all over the place. read more

Phone didn't eat first, but I just had to leave a review after Samantha (manager?) visited our table with the box pictured in this post. We were halfway through dinner (chopped wedge salad & Palermo pizza) when Samantha came by and asked how our meal was - my husband & I said "amazing" at the same time, because it truly was! Then she said she wasn't totally pleased with how our initial pie came out, so she brought us a whole other Palermo pizza for us to take home. We were absolutely blown away by this gesture! That is A+ customer service. And Andrew, our waiter, was attentive and exceptional as well. We will most definitely be coming back. Thank you, Samantha & Andrew, for making our Tuesday night dinner really great! read more

I've been here a couple of times. Let's just say the service is amazing and the food is amazing as well.

I am so happy that The Crust decided to open a location in south Charlotte. My wife and I had been anticipating the opening of The Crust for MONTHS since we live near the new location. We had planned to go for literal months but they took a while to open. Thankfully, we finally got to go for the first time after they opened in May! This location has a ton of seating, both inside and two different spots outside. We sat outside under an umbrella and enjoyed the evening. There are the pizzas they have on the menu and there are rotating specialties they have. We ordered one pepperoni and one custom pizza with sausage, onions, banana peppers, and spinach. Both were DELICIOUS. Also, their hot honey you can get for $.50? ALSO DELICIOUS. The beer and wine they had on the drink menu were very reasonable prices and I think we got out of there for $50 including tip with two drinks, two 10" pizzas, one shared meatball, and a couple sides of hot honey. We were worried we built this place up in our heads too much for it to live up to expectations but it crushed them and we can't wait to become regular customers! read more

It was our first time eating here. We just moved here from CA and were looking for some good pizza that wasn't NY or Chicago style. We were not disappointed! We were greeted by Hannah who was so very kind, sweet and full of helpful information! She checked on us often to make sure we were doing okay and had plenty of soda! She was great! We loved how the pizza was thin crusted, sauce to the edge and loaded with toppings- no skimpy here! Delicious pizza! We definitely will be back! read more
