Da Vinci’s Pizza

Favorite pizza joint in the University area. Huge slices and very very savory new York style pizza.

This place has the best cheese steak, I have had yet you need to check them out !!!

I’m torn between giving this place 2 stars or 5, so I’ll split the difference with 3. The pizza here is my favorite in Charlotte– definitely 5 stars. Their customer service is rather lacking, more like 2 stars. I called to place a to go order after a very long Saturday running errands, I hadn’t eaten all day and was looking forward to a DaVinci’s pizza. I called to place my order at 9:35pm (the website states that they are open until 10pm.) I know 9:35pm seems very specific, but I was so floored after making the call I checked my cell phone to see what time I placed the call. When I called, they refused my order stating they were only doing «fast food» at that time. If they are going to be open until 10pm, they need to work/​take orders until closing time. I have worked in the service industry and we all hate when customers show up 5 – 10 min. before closing, but we dig in, smile and serve them because they are the customer. I can understand if I was calling with a large multi-​pizza order 5 minutes before closing, but placing an order 25 minutes before closing does not seem unreasonable to me, This is not the first time I have called «late» around 9:30pm to order. Another time I called they took my order but not until after they made sure I was aware they closed at 10pm and they asked me if I was sure I could make it by 9:55pm. Again, I understand after working a long day that leaving on time is great, but never in the service industry have I been able to leave the minute the doors close.

Certainly NOT a NY/​NJ style pizza regardless of what some reviews are saying. There was barely enough sauce on the pie and the cheese wasn’t too great. The crust itself was what’s expected down here in the south.

My wife and I eat here on a somewhat regular basis for lunch on weekdays. The pizza is amazing and they give you huge slices. Although the pizza is definitely the best around I have found their hot subs are killer, the Buffalo Chicken sub is amazing. The same goes for their wings they are battered and oh so awesome. The salads are better than average in my opinion. If you order carryout pizza you won’t be disappointed the large pizza just barely can be crammed in the box, and the drive home will seriously challenge your temptations with the smell. The place is clean and service is good. Last but not least you cannot beat the value, a carry out large cheese is $ 15, and as I said earlier it barely fits into the box. Best New York style pizza in the University area.

Good pizza and cheap prices. They deliver, but be careful and make sure you order from the right location. Large slices also. You could really just eat one slice and two if you’re really hungry.

Just had a HUGE, delicious, medium pizza delivered to our hotel room door. We got the Pepperoni Lovers and garlic bread. Everything treated great, especially the marinara dipping sauce that came with the bread, tastes fresh!

Ordered a pizza for the first time from this place last night. Once the pizza arrived, two men instead of one were at the door because there have been robberies happening to the delivery drivers? Then, I smelled alcohol on the delivery driver which led me to believe he was under the influence… When I opened the box, the toppings were not on the pizza as if he had the box on its side so I had to scrape the toppings back on the pizza. Needless to say I will not be eating here again!

If you are looking for an authentic restaurant that serves NY/​NJ style pizza in Charlotte, you do not need to look any further than this place. This place charges 2.50 for a huge slice of cheese or pepperoni pizza (35 cents for other toppings) and just cannot be beat for the price. In addition to that, I ordered a side of their meatballs as well. The meatballs and the sauce were excellent, and the best I have had at a restaurant in quite a while.
The slices came out piping hot, and although they were a little greasy for my taste (another sign of authenticity), that did not matter since I was able to blot it out, and enjoy both slices anyway.
The customer service here was great, and the décor was fine with some very comfortable furniture. I came here just after a blackout hit the area, and they were still open and accepting customers (although you had to pay cash to order something).
All that being said, while the pizza wasn’t entirely my favorite, this place more than makes up for it with its great prices, great service, and best of all, great meatballs! I would definitely come here again if I was in the mood for a cheap and quick bite to eat.

When we moved to Charlotte we was looking for pizza when we found this place. It has now become a once a week outing for me and the kids, and their favorite. They ask every week when we’re going.

Their pizzas are HUGE! But it’s thin… Still taste great and a little above average pricing yet still unique because you don’t really see huge pizzas around here. Their spaghetti taste quite traditional with nice big meatballs along with it. Good amount of choices. I don’t go here often since there are other places that serves pizzas for a cheaper price.

I should have gotten the pizza. The lasagna was ok. Price is good and portions are big

This place is the real deal-​amazing new york style pizza, salads and philly cheese steak. We were just in town for 24 hours but were so impressed that we ate there twice. We wish they would open in Cary, NC.

These guys know how to make pizza, if your looking for an authentic NY pizza this is the spot you guys should try out their wings also great spot and cheap also.

Yummy! Huge NY style slices of pizza! It’s not my favorite pizza parlor but it definitely gets the job done for a quick lunch break and the prices are great for the amount of food you receive! I’ve tasted better, but I’ll definitely go back!

Got a slice of pepperoni pizza and a salad combo – quick, tasty, well-​priced. I recommend it!

BEST NEW YORK PIZZA IN THE SOUTH.
My qualification: South Bronx born and raised
Thank you for bringing my mouth happiness.
Prices are amazing!!!

Da Vincis is a great choice for pizza in the university area. I got a white pizza for lunch delivery the other day. It took longer than expected but it was worth the wait! It was loaded with cheese and lots of ricotta. The crust was good. The medium is huge even for two people. The only problem was so much cheese was hard on both of our stomachs and we couldn’t finish much of it. Good stuff though and I will definitely try again. I want to try the red sauce!

I was so excited to learn that Da Vinci’s opened this new location closer to the University. I frequent their other location in Davis Lake. This restaurant is in a newly built strip so everything is nice and new. It is your average pizza parlor — casual, booths and tables, order at the counter.
This location has the same great combos available. The combos are in the $ 7 – 10 range, so very reasonable for lunch OR dinner (you can get the combo all day long). I usually go for the slice and salad combo. The salads are pretty good, and they give you enough ranch for the ever important dipping of your crust at the end!
They have free wi-​fi which is nice if you need that!
If you want good New York style pizza check out Da Vinci’s!

I haven’t found better pizza in Charlotte than DaVinci’s. Their pizza has a perfectly thin and crispy bottom with some chew after the initial crispness. One slice of plain cheese is enough to fill me up as the slices are enormous. The girl working the cash register at both locations is so friendly. She always checks to be sure our pizza is to our liking (we generally order extra crispy) and fixes it if not. This is the type of employee every business should have.
The garlic knots are also delicious. VERY garlicky with chunks of fresh garlic caked all over the them. The outside is crispy and the inside is soft and doughy.
After complaining about the lack of good NY style pizza in Charlotte for years, I have finally found my go-​to place.
