Here at Tony’s Pizza, we love gooey cheese-covered dishes made with fresh ingredients. From cheese pizza to cheesecake, we’re the ultimate destination for cheese lovers! The next time you’re looking for good places to ear near me in Charlotte, Mooresville, Hickory, or Huntersville, give our Italian restaurant a try. Here are our top five favorite kinds of dishes for cheese-lovers that we recommend.

Our Favorite Cheesy Starters

Before you start your main meal, why not enjoy a cheese appetizer? Here at Tony’s, we have several options:

• Toasted ravioli stuffed with ricotta cheese and served with marinara sauce or ranch dressing
• Italian-seasoned mozzarella sticks with marinara sauce
• Jalapeno poppers stuffed with cheddar cheese with ranch dressing
• Garlic cheesy bread with marinara sauce

In case you need a break from cheese, we also have a number of other delicious starters, including garlic knots, Italian meatballs, fried mushrooms, onion rings, and wings with your choice of sauce. Check out our full menu to see all our available starters.

Cheesy Pizza (Including Gluten-Free Options!)

We’re of course known for our pizza, and one of the things that sets us apart from the other pizza restaurants in Charlotte is that we don’t skimp on the toppings. Our sauce, cheese, and other toppings go right to the edge so you get cheesy goodness in every bite. You can order our pizza by the slice or by the pie.

In addition to cheese pizza, we have several other options including both specialty pizzas and build-your-own pizzas where you choose your own toppings. Some of our crowd pleasers include:

• 5 Boroughs – our meat lover’s pizza with five different kinds of meats and of course lots of cheese
• Bianco – in addition to mozzarella cheese, this specialty pie also has dollops of fresh ricotta
• The Greenhouse – a cheesy pizza topped with tons of vegetables including peppers, onions, olives, and tomatoes

Check out our full menu to find more pizza options, including our gluten free crust. You can upgrade to a gluten-free crust with any pizza so that everyone in your family can enjoy a slice, even if they have a gluten allergy or sensitivity.

Baked Ricotta, Parmigiana, and Other Cheesy Pasta Dishes

We are more than just pizza. While our pizza menu is filled with fan favorites, we also highly recommend our Italian pasta entrees for anyone who loves cheese. Here are the dishes you can order at Tony’s Pizza:

• Baked Ziti
• Eggplant or Chicken Parmigiana
• Meat Lasagna
• Baked Ricotta Cheese Ravioli
• Spaghetti with Fresh Tomato Sauce

All pasta entrees come with a side salad and garlic knots. These are family recipes that have been passed down through the generations, all the way from Italy! Here’s what one of our customers have to say about the food at our restaurant:

“EVERYTHING from this place is delicious. My favorite is the homemade lasagna which I have ordered several times.” – Greta M.

Cheese-Stuffed Strombolis and Calzones

Along with cheesy pizza and cheesy Italian entrees, we also offer both strombolis and calzones. These are baked Italian pastries filled with toppings, including (of course) lots of melted cheese! While a stromboli and a calzone are very similar, there are a few differences.

• Stromboli: a rolled dough filled with mozzarella cheese and your choice of up to three toppings, with a side of marinara
• Calzone: a crimped pocket of dough filled with mozzarella cheese and ricotta cheese, with your choice of one additional topping

Both are made with our delicious dough, just like our pizzas. We take a lot of pride in our dough and think you’ll love it just as much as we do! Likewise, we have other convenient meal options such as subs with a variety of toppings.

Sweet Cheesy Treats to End Your Meal

Cheese isn’t just for your main meal. If you’re looking for good places to eat near me, you also want to choose a restaurant with delectable desserts for a sweet treat after dinner.

• Limoncello mascarpone cake with a lemon-infused sponge cake and sweet mascapone filling, topped with white chocolate curls
