10 Best Pizza Restaurants in Charlotte, North Carolina | Eater Carolinas

"Every pizzeria claims to have a secret sauce or a secret recipe, but Luisa’s secret-not-so-secret ingredient is its brick oven brought over from Milan in the late 1980s, which they say has cooked over a million pizzas. The lunchtime pizza buffet is a must-do, as is ordering appetizers of meatballs and calamari. The signature pizza is the Luisa pizza with sliced tomatoes, pesto, ricotta cheese, and garlic. Other house specialties include the muffuletta (with ham, Genoa salami, provolone, and a muffuletta pesto of chopped green olives and pepperoncini)." - Shindy Chen
