Tony’s Pizza

Best pizza i have had in a long time. I had never tried NY style za before, but I am a big fan now. Can’t wait to try it again sometime soon!

Excellent customer service and amazingly fresh toppings. I always get the 10″ veggie pizza (I sound greedy, right? I might be lol). I have never had a bad experience here, even on their busiest days! I’ve had instances where several employees have gone above and beyond for me. I has also see them do it for other customers. And did I mention how AMAZING the pizza is? You will taste the difference here… from the manager/​owner on down to the cooks and cashiers, the entire staff is very personable. I was impressed from the very first time I visited this location, and it was my first experience with Tony’s Pizza; it has been almost a year now. There are two other restaurants within walking distance and this is the ONLY one that infrequent regularly… hence the reason they know my order LOL… two thumbs up and a full belly

Great lunch place, Authentic NY style pizza. Slices are huge, great garlic knots. Lots of seating. Staff very friendly. A great find.

This is my go-​to pizza place. My boyfriend is from Brooklyn and loves it. Prices are reasonable. The crust is a perfect combination of crunchy and soft. The toppings are very fresh. The service is always great and the employees are very friendly. The restaurant is clean and reminds me of a little pizzeria in NY. We usually order a large pizza and wings and have more than enough left over. The slices are HUGE and very filling. If you are looking for great NY-​style pizza in the University area, this is your place!

Biggest pizza I’ve ever had. We ordered 3 XL pizzas for 10 people and we had way to much. Good flavor, no complaints. Pretty cool wow factor when you walk in with these huge pizzas!

Ordered a 19″ pepperoni, extra cheese, and extra sauce. The pizza tasted great, this is our current favorite place to get pizza from.
The cheese tastes great and the crust is thin and light. For me pizza is basically a piece of bread with a bunch of cheese on it, and the cheese is the most important part otherwise you are just eating a big hunk of bread. This place has the cheese down.
My constructive criticism is that on the pictures of the different pizza sizes, from a personal all the way up to a 24″ pizza, they show them covered in pepperoni without any bald spots of cheese, but the actual pizza has about ½ the pepperoni you see in those pictures. My pizza partner doesn’t like pepperoni so she was happy about the lack of it, but I am the pepperoni craving partner and I wasn’t happy that they depict a much more densely covered pizza than what you end up getting.
I would like them to update and change the picture or put as much pepperoni as pictured on the actual pie.

Pizza’s good. Wings, great. Friendly customer service, but when’s my lasagna gonna be ready?! Ordered it almost 25 minutes ago… Ok… Got my lasagna. So. Much. Sauce. Yas.

Order to go. Got a pepperoni slice and a side salad and it was great. The side salad is large for a side.

These guys are not my favorite pizza place in Charlotte but I will say that Tony’s pizza is really good. Along with their great customer service you will be please with what you get.

I’d tried their mediocre ny pizza before, but this time I tried the Sicilian. I wanted to support a small pizzeria instead of a chain. However, in the future I will go to a chain. The crust was awful, overcooked and tasteless. The pizza was huge but that just meant I have more to toss in the trash. I will not return to this pizzeria and would not recommend to anyone looking for good pizza.

Took pizza back because crust was over cooked and had a bitter taste. Management had such an unprofessional attitude … it was incredulous!
The manager loudly shouted at me … «other customers like the pizza the way it is…» Those other customers stood by smiling. I said … «then let them eat your pizza.» After going on and on about how the pizza was good etc. I said that was his opinion and mine differed. I also said that I would not be back … and the manager said «Don’t come back.» On that we did agree.
Poor food… and even worse customer service.

I rarely do the review thing but I had to this time. Super friendly staff and ohhh the food. The garlic knots may be the best I’ve had in Charlotte… No joke they are baked perfectly. The pizza is legit and on par or better than anything I’ve had in Charlotte. Definitely coming back for sure!

Fantastic place. Great, friendly staff and delicious pizza. The slices are huge, but thin enough for you to enjoy what’s on top.

We drove past this place a million times, but actually seen it when we went to the ATM and I am so glad we did. Located right off of W.T. Harris blvd in worthington Shoppes. Friendly staff, authentic pizza and a nice dinning area.
They really put thought into the pizza. From the first bite to the last the standard of quality is there. Delicious sauce to cheese ratio. Crust was nice and crunchy. Definitely a 5 star for experience and taste.

Love this place… Pizza is always fresh, and hot, I know cause I burnt my mouth a few times lol… The garlic knots are amazing, sometimes I come in just for them (big garlic fan), I have also had the chicken parm sandwich and it is also good, best NY Style pizza I have found in NC! A regular customer.

You like pizza… Tony’s is the place in Charlotte! The XL slices are enormous and can feed 5 to 6 people. Their cheese is very flavorful as with pizza it should be. I was very happy with the sauce cheese combination as well as the crust not being super thick and overpowering the pie. The salad was also great! The portion was humongous and full of the trimmings that come along with the salad. It was enough the share as well. When choosing a pie now, Tony’s has set the standards. Everything was fresh and prepared upon order, so nothing sits under heat lamps or pre made in the fridge. If pizza is what you want… Tony’s is where to go.

Just a quick update — I have been to Tony’s several several several more times since I discovered it and I am never disappointed. Tried the garlic knots which are very garlicky and yummy. Mozzarella sticks are good too. I still stick to pizza for my ‘main’ dish. And if you ask for a small cup of marinara sauce to dip the crust in they will oblige. I’ve brought family from Philadelphia here for lunch when they’ve visited and they raved about it.

Recently came back here and yes, the pizza and concept is still good, just not the execution. Yes, I did go during the lunch rush, but it just seemed like I had to wait forever for two slices of cheese (reheated at that).
The slices are still huge (NY Style) and definitely filling, but something is left to be desired. Can’t really put my finger on it, but it may just have been a «perfect storm» that day when I came in. It is probably because someone else that came in behind me got served before I did — or they stole my order but it does leave a bad taste in your mouth. Yes– it is the customer’s fault, but I think they should have a better system instead of calling out orders that may or may not have been duplicated by different customers.

For some reason Charlotte, which is filled with amazing food, has a tough time figuring out pizza and wings. After some recommendations, we decided to try a pizza from Tony’s. Unfortunately, they don’t deliver, but the location wasn’t too far from our house.
Overall, the pizza was great. In terms of NY style pizza, this is the best we have had so far in Charlotte. The pizza is thin and flavorful, and the crust is chewy and crispy.
The slices are MASSIVE, too. We ordered and XL pizza and it could barely fit in the backseat of our car.
If you are looking for good NY style pizza, I would definitely recommend Tony’s.

Yes! Yes! Yes! This is the best pizza I’ve had in charlotte since Hawthorne’s pizza. This is leaps and bounds above every other pizza place in university.
When you walk in it reminds you of an early 90’s fast food place but man does the food speak for its self. They sale pizza by the slice all day or you can get a whole pizza made fresh in front of you.
The portion size is beyond copious and there are really good lunch specials. You can tell that everything is made by hand because every time you order an item its liable to come out looking slightly different than the last. The salads are large and the pizza slice truly has to be folded over in order to eat it! I you get two slices you won’t eat for a week.
Some items like the garlic knots are a little inconsistent but, I can easily over look this because the pizza is so good.
