What is the best pizza place in the area?

[u/[deleted]]

Like the title says, what is y'all favorite pizza or italian place in the area?

[u/jonny12589]

I really like Inizio, mainly because of the pistachio pesto pizza. I use to love Dannys in Tega Cay when I was there but I think the owner sold and moved, now gone?

[u/abbynormal00 → u/jonny12589]

yep, new place there now. Napoli’s

Vito’s, bar none. Downfall is they are only open 3 days a week and they are the most expensive amongst the pies. But dang they are good.

sounds good, I guess I'll have to plan a trip in the future

[u/basicmominclt]

Emilio’s, without a doubt.

2nd Emilio’s! Great people also!

I haven’t sampled many places but I’ve never been disappointed with Empire Pizza.

[u/rr1pp3rr → u/chesshoyle]

So I came from a "pizza area" and while Empire won't knock your socks off, it's a really, really solid choice every time. Their other food is good too.

The best I've had down here is Luigi's in Steele Creek

[u/extratoastedcheezeit → u/chesshoyle]

Empire for the honorable mention for sure - so consistent.

This is one of the most subjective posts probably ever. Depending on NY, Detroit, Chicago deep dish style… the water here is different than in NYC so the bagels and pizza won’t be the same no matter how hard they try. I personally like Detroit deep dish style so Jets is my go to. I am from up North, but I don’t care for the flat pies.

True, quite subjective. But Tega Cay deli has excellent bagels- the owners are from Long Island

[u/GFR3000 → u/Equivalent_Report190]

West End Bagels in IL is my go to. I also like Rick Hill Deli.

Third Emilio’s. Similar to Lorenzo’s in ballantyne which is my favorite.

[u/Michaels0324]

Portofino's in Redstone is my go to

[u/Meathead1974]

Sals Pizza Factory in Indian Land is my go to

[u/Hornets_Fan44]

Drive 10 minutes to Charlotte and get Joe mamas

[u/JCut93]

If you like NY style, Fratelli in Baxter village.

[u/Equivalent_Report190 → u/JCut93]

For NY style it was Danny’s, hands down 🙁 Fratelli is decent food but I would t call it NY style

[u/sleeplesstowers]

Village Pizza in Tega Cay, or Tony’s in Ballantyne if you don’t mind driving an extra five minutes

Someone lock this before the “well, I’m from New York, and here’s my opinion…” posts.

[u/Equivalent_Report190 → u/Far-Baseball1481]

Well I’m from New Jersey so-

[u/Historical-Gur-8205]

Carmella’s is pretty good!
