Cheesesteaks and Subs Nearby

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.

The History of the Steak Sandwich

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.

Tony’s Pizza is More than A Local Cheesesteak Restaurant

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.

  • Fried Mushrooms
  • Mozzarella Sticks

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.

Who has the Best Philly Cheesesteak in Charlotte?

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.

What Cheese Is Best on A Philly Cheesesteak?

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.

Some Great Reasons To Choose Tony’s Pizza

The town of Mooresville has experienced rapid growth since the creation of Lake Norman. Today, the city is home to a variety of industries and restaurants. One family-owned business, Tony’s Pizza, has a location at 688 Bluefield Road.

Since 1981, Tony’s Pizza has been helping NC families by providing delicious pizza and Italian dishes at reasonable prices. From our humble beginnings in Brooklyn NY and our first store on the Carolina coast, we now serve multiple cities:

  • 688 Bluefield Road, Mooresville
  • 9548 Mt. Holly-Huntersville Road, Huntersville
  • 1530 Overland Park Lane, Charlotte
  • 1605 Galleria Boulevard, Charlotte
  • 14027 Conlan Circle, Charlotte
  • 1832 Catawba Valley Boulevard SE, Hickory

So, how does Tony’s Pizza stand out from the competition? We believe we deliver everything diners are looking for in a restaurant when choosing to eat out:

1. Fresh Ingredients

Often, preserved food includes chemicals that mask true flavors. Moreover, processed foods lose their taste as time passes. Plus, depending on the processing techniques, you can destroy or remove many nutrients. That’s why we always begin by using fresh ingredients for a superior taste and high nutritional content.

2. Authentic Italian Recipes

Our ancestors came to America from Calabria, Italy, bringing family recipes of their favorite dishes with them. Growing up, brothers Vinny, Tony, and Mario naturally learned how to cook these meals. Today, we use many of these same recipes in our kitchens for an authentic taste of Italy.

3. Hand Tossed Crust

One of the characteristics of traditional pizza is a hand tossed crust. While pan and hand tossed crusts begin with the same dough, different techniques lead to varying results. Stretching the dough by tossing it in the air results in a softer, airer crust typical of NY style pizza.

4. Tons Of Pizza Toppings

Everyone has their favorite toppings to create the perfect blend of flavors. At Tony’s, we have plenty to choose from:

  • Pepperoni
  • Sausage
  • Mushrooms
  • Black Olives
  • Pineapple
  • Bell Peppers
  • Anchovies
  • Artichoke Hearts
  • Onions
  • Banana Peppers
  • Bacon
  • Basil
  • Beef
  • Beef Roni
  • Broccoli
  • Canadian Bacon
  • Chorizo
  • Crispy Chicken
  • Feta
  • Tomatoes
  • Grilled Chicken
  • Green Olives
  • Ham
  • Jalapenos
  • Kalamata Olives

Plus, we offer several specialty pizza pies. These include meat lovers, vegetarian, white pizza, or “everything on it” pizza pies. Moreover, we also have rice-based and cauliflower crusts for customers with dietary issues.

Tender meatballs smothered in rich marinara and creamy melted cheese snuggled in a toasted roll are hard to beat. That is, if it’s done right. While meatball subs seem pretty simple to prepare, a bit of work goes into making the actual meatballs. At Tony’s Pizza, we honor our tried and true authentic Italian recipes in our dishes. Thus, if you’re looking for a delightful meatball sub near me, Tony’s Pizza is your place!

Tony’s Pizza Meatballs and Other Italian Dishes

At Tony’s Pizza, we take meatballs very seriously. We’ve passed our recipes from Italy through several generations to perfect the meatball sub. Starting with a secret blend of beef, pork and spices we craft and cook our meatballs to perfection. Then, we nestle them into scrumptious sub rolls and top them with our special marinara sauce and mozzarella cheese.

But, wait, there’s more. (We couldn’t resist saying that!)

We also have meatballs as an appetizer. Better yet, opt for them as a topping on your pizza or place them in your calzone.

Likewise, we have other Italian dishes and fabulous food too. For instance, we have 10 other subs in addition to the meatball sub near me that you’re looking for. Moreover, we have lots of appetizers, salads, NY-style pizza, Italian dishes and desserts. For smaller appetites, we have a kid’s menu affordably priced at $5 or less.

Meatball History 101

To understand what makes meatballs so fabulous, let’s take a little peek back into their history. Initially, historians think these meaty masterpieces originated in southwestern Asia. As travel broadened, so did the recipe. Each locale used ingredients on hand. For instance, Italians added eggs, parsley and cheese to the ground meat which could be chicken, beef, veal or a little bit of each. Often, they rolled the balls smaller than we know them today since meat was typically pricey.

Once Italian immigrants made it to America, they found meat more affordable. Therefore, they made bigger meatballs and added them to all sorts of dishes.

Initially, meatballs and toasted bread had yet to meet. Around the 1900s, Giovanni Amato met the demand of dock workers and combined his baked bread with meat and cheese. This was the birth of the submarine sandwich. However, there is a bit of debate on when the meatball sub actually made its debut. Since most Italians don’t put tomato sauce on their meatballs, this is likely an American invention that developed sometime after Giovanni started serving his subs.

Consequently, it’s much easier for you to find the perfect meatball sub near me that you’re searching for at Tony’s Pizza!

What’s in The Best Meatball Sub

As we mentioned, putting the actual sandwich together is relatively simple. Although, making the meatballs requires a bit more work. Here are a few of the most popular ingredients in a good meatball sub.

1. Base of Bread

Not just any bread will do. It’s critical to find a loaf that won’t fall apart but is also easy to chew. Italian bread, baguettes, or hoagie rolls make a great base for a meatball sub.

2. Marvelous Meatballs

Next, you top your toasted bread with the center of the feast – meatballs. If you’re not up for making these delights, no worries. Grab some extra meatballs when you’re at Tony’s Pizza so you can put together a few meatball subs of your own during the week.

3. Savory Sauce

Two main types of sauces go on a meatball sub: tomato or marinara. Tomato is simple with a few spices. Marinara is thicker, richer and more complex.

4. Cheesy Deliciousness

Most often, mozzarella is the cheese of choice. Since it’s so mild and creamy, it blends well with the heartier flavors in the meatball and sauce (especially if you’re choosing thicker marinara). However, some folks prefer more robust flavors such as provolone or parmesan.

If you live in or visit North Carolina, you’ve likely tried regional favorites like Lexington BBQ. However, many national chains originated in the Tar Heel State as well. Pepsi, Mt. Olive Pickles, Cheerwine and Lance Crackers are all well-known brands that began in our state. Likewise, several famous eateries began in NC too.

1. Hardee’s

In 1960, Wilbur Hardee liked what he saw at a McDonald’s and opened a similar-style restaurant in Greenville. For deeper flavor, he cooked his burgers over a chargrill. Eventually Hardee sold ownership of his name although the chain continued to flourish and opened 1,800 restaurants across the U.S.

2. Bojangles

Jack Fulk (a Hardee’s franchise owner) and Richard Thomas (a Kentucky Fried Chicken executive) joined forces to open Bojangles in 1977 in Charlotte. Specializing in Cajun fried chicken and fresh, homemade buttermilk biscuits, the restaurant is a favorite eatery today with about 340 locations in NC alone.

3. Cook Out

Morris Reaves opened the first Cookout restaurant in Greensboro in 1989. Still growing, this favorite offers inexpensive prices and a multitude of sides. Better yet, they serve another NC original, Cheerwine!

4. Krispy Kreme

1937 marks the birth of a North Carolina sweet treat. Around that time, Vernon Rudolph purchased a secret yeast-raised doughnut recipe from a New Orleans French chef. Next, he rented a building in historic Old Salem and baked his doughnuts for local grocery stores. Once passersby began asking to buy the aromatic delight, Vernon cut a hole in an outside wall and sold doughnuts from his shop.

If you’ve ever lived in or visited New York City, you know there is something special about their pizza. Some say it’s the tap water. Others say it is the decades-old pizza ovens. However, here at Tony’s Pizza, we know the truth: you can have delicious New York style pizza anywhere, even here in North Carolina, if you start with an authentic Italian family recipe and use techniques that have been passed down through the generations. That’s why our pizza restaurants in Huntersville, NC and the surrounding area are fan favorites.

What Makes Our New York Pizza So Special?

In the world of pizza, the two main styles are deep dish (also called Chicago-style) and thin crust (the type most commonly served in New York). “Thin crust” pizza is only thin in comparison to the Chicago deep dish, which is more like a a deep bowl of dough stuffed with toppings. Some thin crust pizza are extremely thin and crusty, while others are more doughy.

In New York City, the thin crust style is flat and chewy, with just a bit of a crispy texture. Slices are typically very large and fold-able, which makes them the perfect street food to grab while you’re on the go. The ingredients go all the way to the edge of the crust, so you get a good cheese/sauce-to-dough ratio.

Our New York style pizzas have all these features, and for good reason; we got started as a small family pizzeria in Brooklyn. Italian food has been our family’s passion for generations, and some of our recipes date back to our family’s origins in Italy. We love sharing our authentic pizza and pasta dishes here in North Carolina and have locations in Huntersville, Mooresville, Hickory, and throughout the city of Charlotte. Our sister restaurant, Mario’s Pizza, also has locations throughout the Triad region, in Winston-Salem, Clemmons, High Point, and Greensboro.

Specialty Pizza at Tony’s

Cheese pizza is what you’ll most commonly see on the streets of New York, but here at Tony’s we also offer a variety of tradition and unique pizza toppings. We sell pizza by the slice or by the pie, and you can choose which toppings you like best or select one of our specialties:

  • The Worx – This is our “everything” pizza. It comes loaded with toppings including both meats and veggies.
  • Pizza Bianco – Our white pizza has ricotta cheese instead of a traditional tomato sauce, as well as plenty of fresh garlic.
  • 5 Boroughs – Named for the 5 boroughs of New York, this pizza is our “meat lover’s” option. It is topped with ham, bacon, pepperoni, ground beef, and sausage.
  • The Greenhouse – Our greenhouse pizza is for vegetarians and anyone who loves vegetable toppings. It is packed with tomatoes, bell peppers, onions, black olives, spinach, and mushrooms.
  • Spicy Buffalo Chicken – This pizza has bite-sized pieces of our buffalo chicken, along with bacon and onions.

Additionally, we offer both strombolis and calzones. Strombolis are like a pizza pocket, with dough surrounding mozzerella cheese, sauce, and your choice of up to three toppings. Calzones, on the other hand, have both mozzarella and ricotta cheeses, along with one other topping of your choice.
