In the Triad area? Visit our sister restaurant, Mario's Pizza!
Feeling famished and looking for the closest pizza parlor in town? Luckily, you’ve likely found it. With six locations in the Charlotte area, there is a good chance that pizza is practically right down the street.
Before you decide on where to go for tasty pizza (we’re not going to lie, we hope it’s Tony’s!), consider the qualities the best pizza place near you should have.
First, make sure the pizzeria you choose makes their pizza by hand. Frozen pizza tastes like, well, frozen pizza. At Tony’s, we hand mix and hand toss our crust to give it that airy yet chewy texture. If any other pizza spots in town aren’t doing that, they’re likely not the best around.
Second, just as important as a homemade pizza is a pizza with fresh ingredients. Whenever possible, we source ingredients made nearby and incorporate them into all of our dishes. Not only does this make the food taste better, it supports our local community.
Third, big box chains rarely use recipes handed down through generations. If you’re looking for the best food in town, find a spot with authentic recipes created right there in the kitchen. Our team makes our food from authentic Italian recipes passed down through the generations from Calabria, Italy. Similarly, our NY-style pizza hails directly from Brooklyn where our owners used to live and serve their community.
Fourth, find a pizza restaurant that gives you options on toppings. Yeah, pepperoni and the like are great but having a variety means you get a different flavor experience every time you visit. At Tony’s, we have over 30 different pizza toppings to try.
Fifth, find a pizza place that offers some special flavor combinations of their own. After all, it’s great to have lots of toppings but it’s also fun to have someone else figure out some tasty ways to combine them.
Based on customer input, our team developed 5 specialty pizzas that combine some of our favorite flavors:
Similarly, not everyone is able to eat traditional pizza ingredients. Thus, we offer vegan cheese and gluten-free crusts. Keep in mind, since our crust is served from a kitchen full of flying flour, cross contamination is possible.
When you’re hungry, you want something to actually sate your appetite not just tease it. Luckily, our huge NY-style slices do exactly that. Plus, we have a massive 24-inch pie that feeds you and your friends or family some huge servings. Or, opt for pizza by the slice which is exactly how the New Yorkers do it!
Likely, if you’re eating with more than one person, you need options. Therefore, find a restaurant that offers a variety of food on their menu for lunch and dinner. In addition to serving delicious pizza, our local restaurant offers:
Notably, the most popular type of pizza is NY style. With a hand-tossed crust, it is thin and crispy with just a bit of chewiness. It’s topped with tomato sauce thick enough that it doesn’t cause soggy crust, but also thin enough to easily spread. Then, it’s topped with low-moisture mozzarella because a high-moisture cheese will also cause the crust to be soggy (and that’s never a good thing). Finally, specialty ovens bake it to the perfect crispness on the bottom.
Fun NY-style pizza tip from the experts: If you like your crust to be a little crispier, ask for your pizza well-done. Our chefs will know what that means!

We brought our family favorites to North Carolina in the 1980s and have been serving up top-quality dishes ever since. However, what if you’re just not in the mood for Italian food. Hey, it happens! Let’s take a look at our top restaurant picks for the best food in Charlotte, Mooresville, Huntersville and Lake Norman. We know food, and these are places our family personally enjoys.

Here at Tony’s Pizza, we take pride in being a restaurant that the entire family can enjoy. We have a large selection for kids, daily deals on pizza and other menu items, and a selection of delicious dishes for people who have special diets, such as our gluten-free crust for pizza and entrée sized salads. Not every restaurant in Charlotte caters to a family environment, though. Few things are worse that going out to eat and finding a menu that doesn’t meet your expectations. If you’re dining out with the whole family, here are some of our favorite places to eat:
If you’re looking for even more family-friendly options, some others we like include Paco’s Tacos, Pike’s Old-Fashioned Soda Shop, King’s Kitchen, and Mert’s Heart & Soul.
While it’s always nice to have a list of the best restaurants to take the family, sometimes you just want to leave the kids at home with a sitter and enjoy date night with your partner or even a double date with some friends. Here at Tony’s Pizza, we’re the perfect option for a romantic Italian evening. While we have several sinfully delicious pizza options, we also have sophisticated pasta entrees such as baked ricotta cheese ravioli, chicken or eggplant parmigiana, spaghetti with fresh tomato sauce, lasagna, and baked ziti. That said, if you’re looking for good food that’s not pizza and Italian food in Charlotte, here are a few restaurants we can recommend for an adults-only date night:
This article has even more romantic restaurant recommendations in Charlotte. Although some people might not realize it, Charlotte really is a city for foodies!

No matter what you call it, a Philly, a Cheesesteak, a steak and cheese…when you’re on the search for a steak and cheese sub near me, you want it fast and you want it good. Luckily, we know exactly where you can find one of the best steak and cheese subs around. Located practically down the street nearly anywhere in Charlotte, Tony’s Pizza is famous for their Cheesesteak sandwiches.
If you’re in Hickory or Charlotte, you have plenty of choices in restaurants serving cold or hot subs. For instance, there are many chains such as: Firehouse Subs, Subway, Jimmy Johns, Jersey Mikes and Quiznos. Of course, some of these chains truly do serve tasty sandwiches. However, they don’t do it quite like Tony’s Pizza. Not only do we have delicious subs, we also have lots of appetizers, sides and desserts.
But, first, let’s get back to that steak and cheese sub near you that you were looking for…
We load our famous steak and cheese with shaved beef and top it with melted cheese which we snuggle into a toasty sub roll. Opt for a small sub or large depending on how much your stomach is growling. If you’re not feeling steak, opt for our Chik-o-philly which is a delicious version of this classic sandwich.
Moreover, as with any of our subs, you can have it Tony’s Way or Philly Style. Tony’s Way comes with cheese, onions, lettuce, tomato, banana peppers, mayonnaise, oil, and vinegar. Conversely, Philly style includes cheese, mushrooms, onions, and bell peppers.
Likewise, we have other delicious subs to try:
The irresistible Philly cheesesteak has a pretty tasty and somewhat debated history.
For the most part, most folks agree that Pat and Harry Olivieri began the Philly’s journey. Operating a hot dog cart in Philadelphia in the 1930s, the brothers cooked up some beef with onions and served it in a roll. Patrons really liked it. Later, folks covered the beef and onions with cheese and this masterpiece fell into the mouths and hearts of folks across the country.
Nowadays, if you’re searching for the best steak and cheese sub near me, you’ll likely find different versions. For instance, some sub restaurants serve these sandwiches with American cheese or Cheese Whiz. Other diners add mushrooms and bell peppers.
As we mentioned, one thing that sets our menu apart from other local sandwich chains is our wide variety of food. Thus, you can get much more than just a sub at Tony’s.
Choose from a variety of appetizers such as:
In addition to appetizers, we have salads, calzone, stromboli, Italian entrees, kids’ meals and desserts. Moreover, as you probably gathered from our name, we serve pizza too. NY style to be exact. We top our thin, crispy, yet chewy crust with our secret tomato sauce and low-moisture mozzarella for the perfect slice. Better yet, we offer over 2 dozen toppings and several sizes to fully customize your meal.
Stomach growling yet? If you’re ready to order a great-tasting steak and cheese sub near me, stop by Tony’s Pizza. If you have more questions, check out some frequent queries below.
Ah, the great debate. Typically, a sandwich is 2 slices of bread or an opened roll with some kind of filling. Although, a sub uses a long roll. Therefore, we conclude that a sub is a type of sandwich.
That said, if you want to know if a hot dog is a sandwich or a sub or something else altogether, we got nothin. That’s a hard a one and we’re staying out of it!
Well, we think it’s best to leave that question to our customers. Here’s what they have to say about our steak subs:
We ordered a large pizza, Philly cheesesteak and fries. Everything was delicious! Will be visiting again soon.
A hidden spot that we would have never found had I not Googled for good pizza restaurants. – Deirdre C
I just made my second trip to Charlotte in a month and I just made my third trip to Tony’s pizza in a month. I am absolutely hooked on their cheesesteaks. They are huge – the hubby and I can barely finish one. Juicy, tender chopped steak, gooey provolone and lots of grilled peppers, onions and mushrooms stuffed into a super fresh sub roll. It is as good as some that I’ve had in Philly. Really.
Our third visit was for pizza. The XL authentic NY pie was too big to fit on our kitchen table. Once again – really. I thought the sauce had a little too much oregano but I’m the only one who didn’t love it. Four famished family members couldn’t finish this filling food (felt a little like Dr Seuss there for a sec!).
My son is moving from Charlotte next month. There are a lot of things that I’m going to miss – Tony’s Pizza will definitely be one of them. – Sue F.
This is another well debated question. Ultimately, we find it comes down to preference. However, a Philly cheesesteak comes with one of 3 kinds of cheeses: American, provolone, or Cheese Whiz.
Absolutely! As a family-owned and local restaurant, we want to save our customers money whenever we can. Consequently, we offer a deal for every day of the week! For the most updated deals for the restaurant nearest you, be sure to select that location from the dropdown menu above.
Similarly, all of our kids’ meals are currently priced at $5 or under to help our families enjoy an affordable dinner together.

Whether you’re looking to grab a bite between classes or enjoy a late night snack with friends, Tony’s Pizza is one of the best restaurants near UNCC for college students. We offer a huge variety of specialty pies, as well as Italian entrees, subs, and even salads. There’s something for everyone at Tony’s Pizza, and you don’t have to worry about breaking the bank to eat here.
Here at Tony’s, we aren’t your normal fast food pizzeria. Sure, there might be chains like Pizza Hut, Domino’s, and Papa John’s on every corner, but their offerings don’t compare to the Italian food you’ll get at Tony’s. For around the same price, Tony’s serves up authentic New York style pizza, which has a delicious chewy yet crispy crust, a crowd-pleasing sauce made with our family’s secret recipe, and fresh toppings that go all the way to the edge of the pie. It’s no wonder why so many students and faculty members consider us one of the best restaurants near Charlotte’s campus.
It isn’t just our tasty food that makes us the best though. At Tony’s, you also have options that you don’t get with traditional chain pizza restaurants. Let’s face it: not everyone is in the mood for pizza every single day. If you’re looking for Italian restaurants near UNCC, we’ve got you covered! In addition to pizza, we serve up Italian pasta entrees such as lasagna, baked ziti, and ravioli. We also have entrée-sized salads, both hot and cold subs, a variety of appetizers like wings, and even desserts.
Keep in mind that we sell pizza by the slice, not just full pies. So, you and your roommates, friends, or coworkers can all pick something different from the menu. We can also do half and half when it comes to toppings. You don’t have to all agree on the same pizza.
Keeping up with your studying and homework is super important. However, there does become a point when it is difficult to concentrate or retain new information. UNCC has tips on managing your time, as it can make you more productive overall. It’s important that you take the right kind of breaks, though. It doesn’t really help to scroll social media mindlessly. Instead, turn off your screens and get away from your desk for a bit. One option is of course to get together with your friends at one of the nearby restaurants you love, such as Tony’s Pizza. Here are a few other great study break options:
Some studies also suggest that changing your environment can help if you really need to crack down and get studying done. Instead of sitting in your room, bring your books to Tony’s Pizza. Order a few slices to enjoy while you hit the books. The change of scenery can help you feel more motivated to learn.

Feeling hungry and searching for tasty dinner options around town? Then, we invite you to check out Tony’s Pizza. Our customers claim we have some of the best Italian food in Hickory and the Charlotte area. We don’t take that compliment lightly. Moreover, we work diligently daily to make it so.
So, if you’re craving some of the best authentic Italian food near you – or any food for that matter since we have lots of other options – drop by Tony’s Pizza today. In the meantime, check out our menu and some of the reasons we feel that we have the best dinner and lunch nearby.
First, check out our list of Italian favorites and some of the most popular Italian food that Americans eat.
This tender and wavy pasta has a tasty Italian history along with a warm spot in American’s hearts. First found in the Naples area, different versions spread throughout Italy. Typically, since it took so long to make (and the expense of meat), cooks reserved it for special occasions. Luckily, once this Italian delight hit America, the dish was easier and less expensive to create.
Nowadays, our team at Tony’s uses Italian family recipes handed down through generations to make our hearty lasagna and bake it to cheesy goodness.
Surprisingly, this Italian dinner did not originally contain tomatoes. Traditionally, broth was the base because tomatoes weren’t around in the 1500s. From there, the recipes evolved into the delightful ravioli that we serve to our fellow Hickory and Charlotte residents. In fact, we took it a step further. In addition to serving an Italian ravioli baked with a zesty tomato sauce and cheese, we also serve it fried as an appetizer.
Likewise, another small surprise about Italian food. Parmigiana didn’t originally come from Italy! Who knew? Actually, it derives from Asia and was a dish of layered veggies (often eggplant). Now, we serve the version that it evolved to today which includes tomatoes, cheeses and decadent happiness.
Choose from eggplant and chicken parmigiana as Italian entrees. Or, try one of our meatball, chicken or sausage parmigiana subs.
Speaking of subs, our list of favorite Italian food would be lacking without adding an American lunch and dinner favorite – the Italian sub. While many diners are very particular on what they consider a true Italian sub, we’ll stay out of that debate.
Fortuitously, we DO know how to make one of the best subs around and it starts with finding a bread that won’t get soggy. From there, we consider the fillings. Typically, cured meats, cheeses and a few veggies topped with oil and vinegar are the fillings in this masterpiece. At Tony’s, we start our Italian sub sandwiches with a comforting loaf of Italian bread (8 or 12 inches). Next, we layer ham, salami, provolone, lettuce, tomato, and banana peppers inside our loaves. Finally, we spread on mayonnaise and drizzle oil and vinegar atop this tasty sandwich.
Okay, at this point, you may not feel surprise to find out…baked ziti isn’t the same as it used to be! Notably, some versions contained scrambled eggs. You read that right, scrambled eggs! Now, if you’re looking for that variation, you won’t find it at Tony’s. However, we’re sure it’s likely delicious too. Fortunately, you can find the now Italian-American version with layers of fresh pasta, sauce and loads of cheese!
We know, NY-style pizza isn’t completely and authentically Italian either. Although, it definitely originates from Italy in a round about way. Italian immigrants opened the first pizzeria in Manhattan in the early 1900s and NY-style pizza as we know it came to be. Our owners actually lived in Brooklyn and brought their tasty pizza down to North Carolina in the 80s. If you haven’t tried it yet, drop by and grab a slice.
Still wondering about some of the best Italian food in Hickory or Charlotte? Below, we have some frequent queries from our customers. (With answers, of course!)
As mentioned above, we have multiple traditional Italian dishes. We also have entrees including spaghetti and meatballs. Moreover, we have mouth-watering appetizers from garlic knots, cheese sticks and toasted ravioli to more American fare such as wings and fries.

As we mentioned, our customers say it best when determining who serves the best Italian food in Hickory. Check out a couple of our kind 5-star reviews below. Then, drop by Tony’s to see for yourself!
I normally don’t give 5 stars because there is always room for improvement but this place has done its job. I’m happiest because when I ask for onions, peppers and mushrooms on my pizza they’re not precooked. Most places out here give you grilled veggies on your pizza. So thank you for standing out. Also, it’s really nice to have someone come out and ask “How’s everything?” Even in NY you don’t get this courtesy. It takes me 25 Minutes to get here. There is a pizza joint 8 minutes from my home , thank you but I’d rather take the 25 minutes drive. See you next week. 😊 – Evelyn B.
Being from New England, finding comparable pizza in NC can be difficult. Tony’s pizza was very good. Their calzone was also excellent. Can’t wait to try more of their menu items. This will be my go to place for food that tastes like home. – Michelle P.

I just made my second trip to Charlotte in a month and I just made my third trip to Tony’s pizza in a month. I am absolutely hooked on their cheesesteaks.
They are huge – the hubby and I can barely finish one. Juicy, tender chopped steak, gooey provolone and lots of grilled peppers, onions and mushrooms stuffed into a super fresh sub roll. It is as good as some that I’ve had in Philly. Really.
Our third visit was for pizza. The XL authentic NY pie was too big to fit on our kitchen table. Once again – really. I thought the sauce had a little too much oregano but I’m the only one who didn’t love it. Four famished family members couldn’t finish this filling food (felt a little like Dr Seuss there for a sec!).
My son is moving from Charlotte next month. There are a lot of things that I’m going to miss – Tony’s Pizza will definitely be one of them. –
We just moved to this area and had been wanting to try Tony’s for several days. I must say we were very pleasantly surprised! We ordered online for pickup and the food was ready on-time and was very hot and fresh even after we got it back to our apartment. We got the Cheesy Garlic bread, which was not smothered in cheese but very sufficient. It was, however, very buttery with a strong garlic flavor. The marinara dipping sauce was some of the best I’ve had. Delicious. We also tried the fried mushrooms which were excellent as well. Our main entree was a 15″ Pizza with pepperoni, mushrooms, and black olives. I have to say it was up with the top best 2 or 3 pizzas I’ve ever had. Perfect crust, great sauce, and the mushrooms were fresh! So many places use canned mushrooms and it’s just not the same. –

It can sometimes be difficult to find Hickory restaurants the entire family will love. Here at Tony’s Pizza, we love serving families in the Charlotte area. We got our start in Brooklyn making delicious New York style pies before our entire family moved south to bring our traditional Italian recipes to North Carolina.

Amazing! Enjoyed everything about this place. Plenty of seating as you walk in. Order at the counter just like New York Style 😉… we ordered our usual half cheese half pepperoni 🍕 and it’s every bit New York style. The sauce is yummy! The crust is perfect. We are totally going back! – Marcio G.
Have ordered from here a couple of times when in town visiting. This place has pretty good food, especially the pizza – I don’t usually feel like I have good pizza outside of the northeast (especially compared to NY/Jersey), but this one was pretty good. We got a veggie pie this time, which has great fresh vegetables, nice size and a really good crust. Recommend them & would order from there again when visiting the area. – Nia D.
Best pizza! Taste just like home since I’m originally from Brooklyn NY). – Valerie S.
