Crust Wood Fired Pizza

great food! unfortunately, the service was not great… or even good. we waited 20+ minutes to be seated, which was okay because they were busy. then, we waited another 20 minutes for any server to even acknowledge us. the table next to us was seated well after us and got their food a bit before us. our server never came to check on us or refill our waters. i’ve never seen a busy restaurant with two servers on staff and one of them working at the bar.

Soooo good. The food is amazing. Arancini, and fries are so good!! And the pizza is even better. Seriously my favorite place! And all the staff is super nice :)

Our family was happy with our pizza experience in this restaurant. Crunchy, thin crust pizza. Novelty toppings. Suggest add balsamic glaze to mushroom and sausage pizza for extra pop. The biggest hurdle was finding parking in this small plaza.

We got the Chicken Bacon Pizza and the Braised Short Rid Cavatelli last night. The pizza crust and red sauce were perfect, how ever we felt the amount of toppings were just too many flavors all at once. The Cavatelli was good but lacked salt and flavor, just a bit too bland. We will come again but will choose a much simpler pizza and pasta because the sauce was extremely good and looking forward to enjoying a classic meatball and spaghetti in that sauce.

A local place we discovered after a long day of walking in Charleston. We wanted pizza and looked up and soo glad we found this gem. The pizza was delicious. We got salads and it was very generous. Loved the atmosphere...including fresh flowers on the tables. Love supporting local.

Good food and solid atmosphere. I wish they put more cheese towards the crust, because there’s quite a lot of crust. I mean, the name of the restaurant is Crust, but they don’t have to give you extra crust just to live up to the name. It wouldn’t be hard to add just a little bit more cheese towards the edges, and then it would be one of my favorite pizza places. Definitely good piazza and salad, and I’d eat there again. The waiter definitely could’ve been a little bit more attentive as well, but definitely wasn’t bad service. Pretty average service, but nothing that stood out as good or bad.

Terrible service. Terrible food. Terrible seating. Dirty bar and bad service. Our pizza came out hot but the fries were COLD. Huh??? Also, Bad vibes. Do NOT Recommend. Not sure how this place is in business a busy.

Great, casual place for Italian food. The ingredients are fresh and full of flavor. We had the Antipasto and Korean BBQ wings. The wings were sooo good. Then we all had wood fired pizzas and we all liked our pizza except for one who said his was bland. Otherwise, great food. The restaurant itself is pretty small and parking can be an issue. There is a gravel parking on the side of the complex so save yourself some time circling the parking lot and head there 1st.

Amazing Pizza Amazing ingredients Excellent service! The staff are very friendly and the pizza was out of this world -Rudy

The Arancini IS something to write home about. It is more cheese than rice, and downright delectable. The Chicken Bacon pizza missed the mark for me, but was still tasty. Just not as flavorful as anticipated. Will switch up the pizza choice next time. Cozy inside.

This place is very cute on the inside with a little outdoor patio in front but not much to look at since it's just overlooking a parking lot. Make sure to come early as there aren't very many tables. The menu is simple but some of the sandwiches that came out to other tables looked delicious. The chicken was a little too large for being on a slice of pizza, but the meatballs were delicious and had extra marinara sauce which was great to dunk my pizza crust into. This was on my list to visit, but I feel like there are better Italian places in Charleston.

If you're looking for something easy, affordable, and relatively tasty then Crust is the place to be. They have a small patio for outdoor seating that is dog friendly. Inside has a couple of wooden booths, bar seating and a communal table beneath dim lighting. Great wine and beer selections. I visit here occasionally and while the food isn't the best in town, it is really good. Staff is always pleasant.

Very slow service, disorganized hostesses make seating complicated and difficult, the incredibly mediocre pizza that takes them 90 minutes to make is served at room temp.

Great place for pizza! We were welcome as soon as we walked in the door! Service was awesome and friendly! Our server made some amazing recommendations! We ordered a few if their specials. The wood fired scallops were absolutely amazing! The garlic panko, butter and lemon blended so nicely! We also had some warm olives, who doesn't love warm olives! We split a beat salad and the pork & peach pizza. Oh my the pizza was so delicious! The pork, peaches, feta and honey combination was simply delicious! I think I could eat this daily Lol. I forgot to take pictures because we dug in to the deliciousness! This will be a new favorite!!

Working in the Terrace Plaza tonight I realized I forgot to pack my dinner. Starving but also money-conscious I ordered the baked pasta with meatballs. I made the right choice. The price was right-- especially since the serving and satiate-quotient were more than substantial- I'll get two meals out of it! As I entered the restaurant, although the seating areas and bar were all full, I was greeted right away by hostess and bartender. My order was taken expediently and within 12 minutes my order was ready. It was prepared perfectly, piping hot -- great for a chilly night like tonight. Nice touch was the grana padano chilled on the side in its own container. I recommend!

A nice pick for lunch or an early dinner. Arrive early or you may need to wait as it's on the smaller side. Very cute decor if I may add. Free parking is also a bonus! The meatballs are delicious as are any of the salads and veggies. How can you go wrong with burrata cheese? The pizza is mediocre in my opinion. I like more of a NY or New Haven style.

We ended up choosing this pizza spot after our 6 mile 10K Cooper River Bridge Run in Charleston, SC. The quaint old school pizza joint feel has so many options to choose and not just pizza , pastas sandwiches, salads, and more. The specialty pizzas offered are unique and you can create your own but the topping selections include butternut squash , kale , a variety of cheeses and protein. I chose the crustacean with spicy shrimp and it lived up to its name. Whew hottt !! Yet very tasty and fresh with a pesto base. All pizzas are 12" making it the perfect size and enough for a leftover snack. The staff was very nice and managed all of our orders with efficiency. They also offer vegetarian and gluten free options as well. I love pizza and sometimes you don't know what you may get when trying something new but this was a great choice !!

Nice & laid back place to eat. Greeted as we walked thru the door and was advised pick any seat we desired. Very nice hostess and our server was on the ball.

As always Crust is a hit! I love the Woodfield pizzas created at crust. We went on a very busy Friday evening. We were able to get a table quickly but it took a long time for the server to greet us. During that time someone came to check on us and let us know the server knew we were here and would be out soon. I appreciated them coming to check on us and knew they were very busy. We sat outside in a tent-type area. It had a heater but our table was right next to the flap and was being opened a lot. This made our stay rather chilly. There was nothing Crust could do to prevent this but did make the stay less inviting.

Service is outstanding and the food is just as good! Don't miss the pizza, Caesar salad, and finally the meatball appetizer.

Great food. Service & warm cozy patio area! We got the gluten free pizza. It was great! I did expect more meat to be on the "Crustivore" pizza but it was still tasty!

Fantastic option for pizza, pasta, or sandwiches. Food was great and staff so nice! Will be going back for sure!

This pizza place was incredible. We had a sausage and mushroom pizza, the fried risotto and an order of meatballs. Everything, I mean EVERYTHING was exceptional. We ate in downtown Charleston for four days, and this was hands down the best meal we had. I'm so sad that I don't have this place in NWI. I'll be dreaming of this food for years to come.

Great gluten free pizza! I had the butternut squash and it was so unique and tasty. The best part was that our waitress Shay gave my daughter and myself great and thorough advice for our weekend visit. Her thoughtfulness really touched my heart.

Love this place!! Ambient vibes, great service, and some of the most demanded pizza in the area. Love me a good margarita and a coke, it's always a good time eating here. I appreciate the servers and chefs for everything they do. Friends and family love it here and have gone for years! Will go again, thank you Crust!

The fried risotto balls was the best ever go back to crust is amazing the food was good service was good and ambiance is satisfying

We visited Crust while on a college tour and loved it! My best salad was excellent and we loved the crumbled sausage. Great little place!

Looked up a pizza place near by. This place came up. It's a nice little bistro kinda place. We sat at the bar while we were waiting for our table. We had drinks and appetizers. We tried the meatballs. 3 meatballs were enough for a quick tweez. We all had a little bite and tried their tomatoe sauce. It was a nice start. The waitress (Jessica) was awesome, very helpful, and attentive. We waited about 15 mins for our table. We were finally seated and immediately were attended to. We ordered a kids pizza with spinach and a del ray. We liked them so much, we got another order of meatballs. We got our order pretty quick. The flavor of our pizza was very nice. Everyone enjoyed the meal. The del ray was plenty for 2. The kids size was also good for 2 people. Great taste for both.. In all, this is a very nice place with good food and good service. Parking was plenty on this night. The outdoor seating was small with just a few tables. Nice. I highly recommend this place.

Came here with my parents and had a great dinner of pizza and beer! It was a Saturday night and the restaurant was busy but the servers were great and attentive. One of my favorite pizza places in Charleston!

Excellent local pizza spot w crust worthy of its name. Had both regular and gluten-free (the gluten-free crust was good but not great) . Top quality, original toppings like the Crustacean with shrimp and chili oil. Large fresh salads. Great house Pinot Grigio at a fair price. Small cozy space w limited seating and open kitchen. Great staff.

Save your money. Dry tasteless crust with few toppings. When they say no red sauce you think - olive oil, white sauce...not so. The cheese was minimal and added little flavor. Not worth it!

We arrived on a Sunday in October around noon. It was pretty busy but there were tables available. We opted to sit at the bar. The three people that were working the room were doing some serious multi-tasking - and doing it quite well. We enjoyed a draft IPA and a pepperoni, mushroom and olive pizza. Pretty tasty but could have used a little more toppings and cheese. The pepperoni slices were thin and huge so it's not Hormel! The pizza was just the right size for two of us. Parking can be an issue as there are several restaurants in the area.

Pizza was yummy only. The cheese pizza was good. The weed beer was just ok (tasted like a miller lite) and the "beef short rib cavatelli" was not great. Kind of felt like the most expensive meals were only recommended when I asked. However, the place had a good vibe and I did enjoy the pizza. Just beware the server recommendations if they are just all the highest price menu items.

It was girls night and we ordered the arancini to start and then split 3 of the specialty pizzas: Margarita, Tomato goat, and the Kale yes! and much to everyone's surprise the Kale yes! was the table favorite. We all got a different wine and they did an absolute great job when someone would ask for another one and the classic point to the glass. Where the star goes missing is because it seemed like we really had to do our own bussing (put the serving dish from the appetizer on the ground to make room for the pizzas) and then when it was time to pay we had to go in and ask someone if we could pay. This was my second experience here and both times the food was really great. I don't think I've ever sat inside or even seen inside as I have sat out front both times which has been just fine! I will most definitely be back! (coming from the worst pizza snob known to the southeast)

Crust is an awesome pizza joint, with two locations in Charleston. We've had several of their specialty pizzas and the build your own. All have been delicious, and the 12-inch leaves me wanting more when split with two people. If you're really hungry, get your own! I'm glad to have Crust in the James and Johns Island area, and consider it one of my local joints on the regular rotation. Keep in mind, the James island location is surrounded by a movie theater and several bars and restaurants, so parking can be a bitch at times.

So excited to try the wood fire pizza and it did not disappoint. Hand cut fries were served hot and with a variety of dips. From the cauliflower soup to the veggie salad everything was great. Outside table area is small, but it was comfortable even in the evening chill. Restaurant was packed about 6 PM had to wait about 20 or less minutes for a table. Will be back soon!

Delicious pizza, nice local beer selection and super friendly waitstaff. Really good choice!!!

Consistently good pizza and salads. Crust is that casual, cozy Italian spot we all need every once in a while. Staff is cool and attentive and kitchen stays open late during the week. Wine is reasonable and prices are fair. Specials change daily and are usually super fresh and exciting.

This salad was incredible!!!!! I ordered the gluten free crust for the pizza - it was good, but not my favorite GF crust. The toppings were incredible though!! So if you are not gluten free and can order the regular crust I highly recommend the Bianca - adding prosciutto, arugula and honey! We sat at the bar and had quick service. The restaurant is pretty small, making it intimate and the perfect date night spot

Do not order this place for take out. The pizza was cold & burnt. (I picked up our order 15 min after I called & the lady said 25-30min, so I assume it would have been worse if I came in 15 min later). The fries were also wet & soggy, like spaghetti noodles. Wish the food would have been better, very disappointing.

Love, love their pizza. Perfect crust and all of the topping flavors were great. If we lived in the area this place would be our go to!

Our experience at Crust was very disappointing. The service was incredibly slow & poor -- so much so that we almost thought we were on a prank show. They were out of almost everything we ordered, they forgot to bring us water and our drinks, they checked on us maybe once when there were additional things we needed, and (worst of all) it seemed like we were burdening our waitress by getting her attention to ask for things. The space was cute, but the food wasn't good enough to make up for this poor experience. And they were out of like 4 of the drinks we ordered. I don't think I'll be back.

The food was very good, and the service exceptional! Was seated immediately and waited on immediately.

My daughter loved this pizza she ate more thank have seen here eat in months! My sister had the BLT salad she liked it really well. But service was a little lax. But good food. We also had the Crustavore Pizza it was ok. Ambiance was ok.

Crust was the first pizza I tried when I moved to Charleston. The pizza is always perfectly cooked and the menu has great options. Drinks are good too!

Well at least the ketchup had some taste! This used to be our go to on Friday or Saturday night. The food tonight was just awful. Chicken Parm was tasteless and over cooked and the panini bread was stale. Service was great but the food has really gone down hill.

Cute spot (James Island location). Tiny, tiny so often there is a wait but it's worth it! Great apps, salads and pizzas.

Always my neighborhood favorite place to go. As always will definitely be back. The meatballs and salads are some of the best in town.

Relaxed bar with friendly non-pushy service, currently best pizza in town, in my opinion.

Crust is lovely! Service has consistently been good here (for a pizza place). I enjoy their butternut squash pizza. I have noticed that sometimes toppings are very scant, while other times they are plentiful. Wine prices are reasonable as well. I recently enjoyed a peach pork special pizza.

The pizza is delish--everything tastes fresh: veggies, sauce, and cheese. I can't remember everything I got here, but I remember leaving satisfied and mentally adding it to my list of places I would like to go back to. :)

Butternut squash and add the fresh prosciutto. Absolutely divine! And so much prosciutto. It was great. Takeout was ready on time too.

The hours online say it's open till 10PM, we showed up at 9PM and they were already closed. Very frustrating.

best gluten free pizza in charleston!!! 10/10 wish all their locations were still open but the food is always amazing from crust no matter what

I am very picky when it comes to pizza... and this is one of the best I've had! Delicious pizza, drinks, friendly staff, and a fun environment!

Great spot. If you're wanting incredible restaurant food in an extremely casual place, this is your spot. Love a place with actually interesting specials, and Crust is doing it right. Fresh flavors, deep flavors, homey and warm and umami flavors. Very happy with everything we got at our table - apps and pizzas and salads. Nothing wrong, everything right. Comfortable and delicious, go to Crust.

My husband and I are big fans of Crust!! The pizza is exactly what to expect from a real Italian pizza, and the pasta is perfectly done, fresh shrimps and al dente pasta with a delicious flavor! Super recommend... I only wish the place was bigger!!
