Reviews of Tony’s Pizza

Now, to the bragging part about why we think we have some of the best food Hickory NC has to offer. We love that our customers love us. Here are some of their kind words.

“We found this place on Trip Advisor as we were passing through Hickory on our way to Charlotte. TJ took our order and he was very friendly and attentive to the customers. All the guys were working hard here. The pizza was great and you get a big pie for the money. I highly recommend to anyone driving through.” – Jill D.

“If you are from Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx, Long Island, or New Jersey, this is…hands down…the best pizza you will find in Hickory. As a recent transplant, I have been looking for that “perfect NY slice”. While it’s not a perfect 10, I’ll give it a 9.75. Everything else in town is an 8 or below. Keep in mind that there are several places in town doing Neopolitan style wood fired pizzas, which are very good, but I am referring to an authentic NY pizza…cooked on a deck oven. Friendly staff, quick service (despite being absolutely slammed last night) everyone managed to have a smile and looked like they were having fun making pizza!” – Stratocaster

“It has been a while since the last time. We will come back sooner. We had The Worx pizza. Very good. The sauce is like biting into a tomato. The toppings were very fresh and they laid them heavy on the pie. Take out food. Staff was very nice.” – Henry NC7

All ages enjoy a fun Italian themed party. The food is fabulous and it’s an excellent way to celebrate the culture of another country. Before we get into the food, here are some fun Italian party activities and decorations for your event.  Keep in mind, Tony’s Pizza can help with all your Italian catering needs if you’re not up for making the food!

Décor for an Italian Party

Notably, the Italian flag and flag colors make decorating for an Italian themed party simple. With three vertical stripes in green, white, and red, it provides a perfect color scheme for your décor. Incorporate these colors to bring all of your Italian themed party decorations together. Here are a few other ideas:

• Use checkered tablecloths in red, white or green
• Place colored pasta of various shapes in large jars or string them and hang as garland
• Opt for Italian wine or olive oil bottles as vases

Next, determine the vibe for your party. If you prefer a rustic feel, use wine barrels for party tables or make candleholders with wine glasses. Or, if it’s a kid’s party, use bright colors. Colored plates in red, green, and white add to the atmosphere. Likewise, use the Italian flag as placemats.

Kids’ Games for Your Italian Themed Party

If you’re inviting the whole family to your Italian themed party, have games for all ages. Here are various activities for the kids:

• Strega comanda color – In this active game, one child is the “strega” (aka witch). The witch calls out a color and everyone must touch an item of that color before the witch tags them. The first person tagged becomes the new witch. If no one is tagged, the strega calls out a new color.
• Piovra – In this game, one child is the “piovra” (aka octopus). They stand in the middle of the yard or court and can only move horizontally along that line. All the other children playing must run to the opposite side without being tagged. If piovra tags them, they become a baby octopus. Then, they too can tag players except they can’t move like the piovra. The last player remaining untagged wins and then becomes the new piovra.
• Italian scavenger hunt – Make your Italian themed party educational and learn some Italian words. It’s similar to a normal scavenger hunt except the words are in Italian. If needed, add a hint in English to each Italian word. For instance, a word on the list might be “lampada” (lamp). Your clue could be, “it lights up the room.” Make the clues easy or challenging depending on the age of the guests. Truly, this is a game adults may enjoy too! Keep in mind, you can create a list for an indoor or outdoor party.

If you prefer more traditional Italian party games for kids, check out this resource.

Adult Activities for An Italian Party

Even though games for the kids are so fun that some of the adults may want to join in as well, here are some Italian style party ideas for older guests:

• Wine tasting –Have each adult guest bring a bottle of Italian wine. Provide small sample cups for sipping and have guests vote on their favorite wines.
• Balsamic vinegar and olive oil tasting – Prefer to keep alcohol at a minimum? Have a fun tasting activity for people who don’t drink. Similar to the wine tasting, have partygoers bring a balsamic vinegar or olive oil. Cut crusty bread cut into chunks for guests and drizzle each of the vinegars and oils on plates. Therefore, guests can easily dip to test and find their favorites.
• Italian trivia –Pair up partygoers and play trivia! Ask Italian-themed questions. Better yet, provide Italian-themed prizes for the winners including a gift certificate to Tony’s Pizza!

Moreover, Italian culture encompasses relaxing and spending time together while enjoying fabulous food. So, don’t overstress yourself planning activities. Let Tony’s Pizza do the heavy lifting with authentic Italian party cuisine.

Tony’s Pizza prides itself on offering authentic Italian dishes to a variety of NC locations. Our menu boasts many fan-favorites, from Brooklyn-style pizza and pasta to stromboli and, what we believe to be, the best calzone near me. For our first time customers, Tony’s would be delighted to make you one complete with your own unique combination of toppings.

Breakdown of a Calzone

Believe it or not, the Italian calzone creation translates to “pants legs,” oddly enough. The delightful food found its roots in Naples during the 1700s, designed as a pizza made for on-the-go activities, like walking around outside. The customary semi-circle shape began as the dish was originally a plain pizza folded in half. Gradually, calzones took on their own unique identity and separated from pizza.

Unlike the similar dish, Stromboli, which is characterized by a log-shaped rectangular design, calzones demonstrate a half-moon design. A traditional one is made of a mix of cheeses, often including ricotta, and a variety of toppings. Tony’s prefers to serve the sauce on the side, though. When you try the best calzone near me, you’ll see why it’s ideal for dipping! Stromboli, on the other hand, is made by baking the sauce with the other ingredients, which creates a different dish.

Regardless, calzones are always ideal for a quick bite in a rush. Stop by on a Tuesday to try our Stromboli or calzone special for an easy lunch break. Tony’s is sure to have a location near you, boasting six locations in Mooresville, Charlotte, Hickory, and Huntersville. If you’re in the Triad be sure to visit our sister restaurant, Mario’s Pizza, with locations in Winston-Salem, Greensboro, High Point, and Clemmons.

Top Dog: Pizza or Calzone?

It would be a lie to say that pizza doesn’t hold the number one place in our hearts. But, we think calzones could take that spot for you. Below are five of the top reasons they take the cake:

1. Everybody loves toppings.  The topping to crust ratio is unmatched. If you aren’t a “crust” person, calzones are the way to go. Even though Tony’s crust is delicious, choose a calzone to enjoy a mouthful of toppings with each bite.
2. Moreover, they’re also ideal for people on-the-go. When you don’t have the time to sit in Tony’s dining room and enjoy your delicious Italian fare, these folded delights are perfect for a quick bite or to-go order.
3. Sauce overload on your pizza? Our calzones pair sauce on the side, so you can choose the ideal dipping amount for each bite. Don’t be shy; feel free to ask for more if you run out!
4. Cold pizza is a controversial topic. Calzones stay warmer longer, for those who don’t prefer a cold slice. Getting lost in conversation can make us forgetful, while your pizza begins to get cold. Luckily, the unique pocket design of calzones ensures they’ll stay warm for a while.
5. Each person has their own pizza topping preference. While our pizzas are large enough to satisfy your whole family, sometimes we have to compromise on the toppings. Because calzones are made for individual dining, each person gets to choose their own toppings.

If you’re looking for another ideal alternative to pizza, check out our Stromboli. These are made with more crust and sauce, and only mozzarella cheese. This makes Stromboli the perfect dish for those who aren’t fans of the ricotta found in calzones.

People like you live busy lives, especially now in this modern world. There are many activities that could lead you to skipping lunch if you feel short on time.  However, skipping meals can have bad effects on your health. Check out Tony’s pizza for some tasty lunch ideas that can fit your busy schedule.  

5 Reasons Why Skipping Lunch is Bad  

People skip lunch for many different reasons. Oftentimes, they simply just don’t have the time to make a meal. Or, they are trying to eat on a budget and are just tired of the same old thing. Likewise, they may have simply run out of lunch ideas. But, missing out on your noonday meal can have a larger impact than you may have thought. Some top reasons you shouldn’t skip lunch include:

1. Productivity is Hindered 

As we go about our days, our body needs to be fueled about every 4-6 hours. Without this fuel, you will be weak and tired. You’ll even have trouble thinking because your brain won’t have the amount of glucose it needs to properly function.  

2. Blood Sugar Levels are Affected

As you consume food, your body converts that into glucose. This is what your cells need in order to power your body. If you are always skipping lunch, you could become more sensitive to insulin.  With your blood sugar continuously being unstable, you are increasing your risk of getting diabetes.  

3. Lead to Overeating Later in the Day 

For the most part, skipping lunch leads you to overindulging during your next meal. Missing that lunch results in a reaction called survival mode. Consequently, you may lose control over your food intake leading to binging.  

4. Weight Gain

Another effect that many people would classify as negative is weight gain. By not receiving enough fuel, your metabolism is lowered so less calories are burned. By eating your usual amount of food with a lower metabolism, weight gain occurs because you are not burning as many calories.  

5.Missing Key Nutrients 

To live a healthy life, our bodies need the proper amount of vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, proteins, and healthy fats. By missing lunch, you miss that opportunity to replenish your body with those vital nutrients. Although, by satisfying your hunger with junk food, you’re filling your body with foods that lack good nutrients.  

Some Tasty Lunch Ideas 

You may know that skipping lunch is bad but still find yourself doing it. Rather it be you’re crunched for time or bored with your choices, it may make lunch feel like a chore rather than a pleasure. Check out some lunch ideas to get you more motivated about lunch!

• To make your lunch more fun and different, swap out the type of bread you use for a brand-new taste. 
• Similarly, the type of deli meats you use also makes a difference along with the condiments. You can even use your favorite seasoning to spice the sandwich up even more.  
• Not only can your sandwiches undergo change, but so can your salads. Add some ingredients that will give it a nice crunch such as nuts, wontons or seeds. Lastly, pick a new topping to add to your salad or sandwich to really spice it up. The more unique, the better.  

Lunch Options  

Even though these lunch ideas may inspire you, you may be lacking the time to make them. This is where we come in to help. At Tony’s we have an extensive menu, 6 centrally located restaurants and even food delivery options, therefore, we can take care of your lunch.

Sandwiches are easy, quick, and efficient. They have a versatility like no other that allows you to easily mix and match. In fact, their popularity has a worldwide reach that boasts a sub unique to each culture. For Americans, it’s our submarine sandwiches that can be served both hot and cold. Tony’s Pizza is the place to visit if you’ve been craving the best sub sandwiches near me.

7 Best Sub Sandwiches Near Me

The submarine sandwich was invented by Italian immigrants, much like many other American dishes. The credit is given to Giovanni Amato, an Italian immigrant, who designed this versatile item.

It is clear that sub sandwich favorites vary among the locals by geographical area. But, without a doubt, they each have one thing in common: a long, football-shaped roll packed with ingredients.

Below are seven of the most popular sandwiches:

1. Steak And Cheese

Often referred to as the Philly Cheese Steak, this sub is sure to suffice as a hearty meal. The steak and cheese dish had its start in the 1930s with two hot dog vendors, Pat and Harry Olivieri. Tall tale or factual claim, the story goes that the pair grew weary of hot dogs and found that fried beef with onions was a customer hit. Fast forward about a decade, and cheese was added to the mix.

2. Grilled Chicken

Chick-fil-A’s Truett Cathy fame claims his was the first restaurant to offer chicken sandwiches, beginning in 1946. But, many claim that smaller, local restaurants served the dish much earlier. Regardless, there is a key difference between chicken sandwiches and subs. This is found in the bread as sandwiches are typically crafted with brioche or hamburger buns while subs use traditional “footlong” rolls.

3. Turkey

Turkey is one of the easiest meats to use because its mild flavor pairs well with a variety of other additions. Whether you prefer your sandwich to be sweet, savory, or maybe even spicy, your basic all-American meat is sure to be crafted into a delicious treat.

4. Meatball

The history of stacking meatballs on bread and slathering them with marinara sauce and melted mozzarella is unknown. However, what we do know is that it creates a heavenly pairing.

5. Club

Both the history of this classic and the meaning of its vague name are highly debatable. One popular claim suggests the name comes from its appeal to country clubs, while another debates the letters are an acronym for its ingredients (chicken, lettuce under bacon).

6. Classic Italian

If your sub is a true classic Italian dish, it must be prepared with traditional Italian meat and cheese that are then layered with fresh lettuce and tomato. That is, choose from Italian meats and cheeses like pepperoni, salami, prosciutto, or provolone. Fill the hearty roll and finish it off with a drizzle of oil and vinegar. Mangiamo!

7. Vegetable

A vegetarian diet is becoming increasingly popular among Americans. Thus, more restaurants strive to offer meat-free options. A few of the most-used toppings are mushrooms, onions, peppers, lettuce, and tomato. Oftentimes, typical vegetarian sub toppings vary by geographical location.

Tony’s Doesn’t Stop at Subs

We invite your whole family to visit any of our locations in Mooresville, Charlotte, Hickory, or Huntersville where you can learn more about our one-of-a-kind Italian cuisine.

A Breakdown: Authentic Italian Cuisine!

As is the case with many cuisines in the United States, Italian food was brought to the US with people immigrating from Italy during the 1800s. This unique fare was popularized throughout North America in the 1920s, most notably in east coast locations. One of these such locations was Brooklyn, which our family called home until the 1980s when we relocated to North Carolina. Here at Tony’s, we use family recipes that originate from Calabria, Italy, ensuring a real taste of Italian delicacy in every bite.

First things first: pizza. We are famous for our New York-style pizza that comes in many sizes for every occasion. Offering a 10″, 15″, 17″, 19″, and giant 24″ party size, Tony’s pizza is for everybody. Following tradition, our pizzas boast a thin crust that ensures a foldable slice (if that’s what you’re into). To top it all off, we cover each pizza with our family’s tomato sauce and a generous layer of cheese.

Pasta

Italy is known for another staple food: pasta. The national dish is spaghetti bolognese, so you know we take it seriously. Tony’s offers a number of popular Italian pasta dishes. It’s hard to choose, so we’ve selected our top four must-haves:

1. Baked Ziti
2. Spaghetti with Fresh Tomato Sauce
3. Baked Ricotta Cheese Ravioli
4. Eggplant/Chicken Parmesan

As is tradition, authentic Italian cuisine includes very little meat. Notably, this is because dinner is typically served later than we’re used to here in the US, sometimes as late as 10 PM. Furthermore, Italian fare favors veggies and herbs to avoid a heavy meal. Italian cuisine began fusing with American dishes during the 20th century and more meat was incorporated into menus. Because of this, one of Tony’s favorite dishes is our homemade meat lasagna. It’s a match made in heaven with the perfect combination of fresh tomato sauce, pasta, cheese, and meat.

Enjoy the Italian Experience with Your Family at Tony’s

Delectable Italian Desserts at the Best Italian Restaurants Near Me

A meal is not complete without a little bit of sweetness. Each of Tony’s family recipes includes traditional ingredients that create classic Italian desserts. Any of these options found at our Tony’s locations are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth:

• Tiramisu – Essentially a coffee-lover’s dream. This dish boasts layers of coffee-dipped lady fingers and thick mascarpone-based cream, topped with a dusting of cocoa.
• Cannoli – Beginning with a fried pastry tube, we fill this dish with sweet cream after crisping it to perfection. We pack our cannoli dessert with chocolate chips and top with powdered sugar.
• Limoncello Mascarpone Cake – For this dessert, we combine layers of Sicilian lemon sponge cake and mascarpone cream to create the perfect bite. It is an ode to limoncello, a lemon liqueur common in southern Italy. But, you can enjoy our white chocolate-topped cake without worrying about the hangover!

Our menu wouldn’t be the same without a New York cheesecake. It would be a shame if we didn’t represent our Brooklyn roots!

The Best Italian Restaurants Near Me Aren’t the Same Without Pizza

It’s no secret that there are certainly a wide variety of authentic Italian dishes offered, but it wouldn’t be a true Italian restaurant without the pizza. We make it easy for you to order a pie with your favorite toppings, or choose from our specialty options:

• 5 Boroughs – The traditional meat lover’s option. Comes complete with the five pizza boroughs: bacon, beef, sausage, ham, and pepperoni.
• Pizza Bianco – A simple white pizza with ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, and a generous helping of fresh garlic.
• The Worx – Our spin on an “everything” pizza, topped with pepperoni, sausage, beef, Canadian bacon, mushrooms, bell peppers, and black olives.
• The Greenhouse – The simple veggie lover’s pizza, equipped with tomatoes, bell peppers, onions, black olives, spinach, and mushrooms.

You can also select your own toppings to create a custom pizza, or maybe a different one each time. Tony’s offers a wide range of options (that is, pretty much anything found at a pizzeria near me from pepperoni to pineapple). Tony’s even has a variety of premium toppings, which includes:

• Premium meats: grilled or crispy chicken and steak
• Feta cheese
• Kalamata olives
• Broccoli
• Anchovies
• Artichoke hearts
• Sun-dried tomatoes
• Roasted red peppers

No one says the toppings have to cover the whole pie, and many diners enjoy a half-and-half to mix and match. Thus, if your family simply can’t decide, you can choose any combination, such as mushrooms and anchovies on one side and spinach, bacon, and sun-dried tomatoes on the other. We hope you can enjoy creating new combinations to find the perfect order that satisfies every member of the family.

New York-Style Pizza

Speaking of authentic, we bring you delicious New York-Style Pizza directly from Brooklyn. In the early 1900s, Gennaro Lombardi developed NY-Style pizza when he opened the first pizzeria in the United States in Lower Manhattan. Since then, many chain restaurants have attempted to replicate this style of thin-crust pizza.

Here at Tony’s, we do things a bit differently than those chains! We use fresh ingredients and traditional recipes to create the perfect pie, based on our family recipes and Brooklyn background. Starting with a thin, hand-tossed crust, our chefs begin the delicious process. Then, we top it with our unique tomato sauce, high-quality cheese, and your choice of other toppings.

Our most popular toppings include traditional fare such as pepperoni and extra cheese. Of course, you’re welcome to choose whatever you like. In addition to choosing your own toppings, we have a few specialty options:

• The Worx: Our “everything” pizza, with pepperoni, sausage, beef, Canadian bacon, mushrooms, onions, bell peppers, and black olives
• Pizza Bianco: For those of you who love a white pizza variety – ours has ricotta cheese, fresh garlic, and mozzarella cheese
• 5 Boroughs: A meat-lovers pizza with bacon, beef, ham, pepperoni, and sausage
• The Greenhouse: The ultimate vegetarian pizza with tomatoes, bell peppers, onions, black olives, spinach, and mushrooms

Desserts To Finish Your Delicious Lunch Near Me

Often, our guests crave something sweet at the end of their meal. Try one of our authentic Italian desserts to satisfy your sweet tooth!

First, if you’re a coffee fan, try our tiramisu. First created in Treviso, a small town near Venice in Italy, tiramisu gained popularity in America in the 1980s. With thick layers of mascarpone-based cream and a dusting of cocoa powders on top, it’s perfect if you love a sweet dessert that isn’t too sweet.

Cannoli is another tasty feature on our menu. We fill these fried tubes of pastry with a mixture of sweet cream and ricotta cheese, mixed together with chocolate chips. Then, we sprinkle them with powdered sugar. Coming from Sicily, this dessert is a centuries-old treat. Today, folks around the world enjoy Cannoli with a variety of different fillings and toppings. Although, we think our traditional-style recipe can’t be beat!

Looking for something a little different? Grab a slice of delicious limoncello mascarpone cake. Often served as an after-dinner drink, Limoncello is an Italian lemon liqueur popular in southern Italy. True to its name, it has a strong lemon flavor. Our dessert has layers of sponge cake infused with limoncello and Italian mascarpone. To finish it off, we top it with white chocolate curls.

Last but never least, we revisit our deep Brooklyn roots with our authentic New York-style cheesecake. Order a slice for a dense, rich yet slightly tangy and sweet end to your meal here at Tony’s Pizza.
