House of Pizza

I’ve been going there for years and realized I never posted a review. Delicious food with super friendly staff. Everyone is kind and welcoming. My favorite is the Philly chicken sub. Also you must try their greek salad with feta it’s always fresh and delicious. And last but not least their homemade ranch is amazing, I always order a few extras to take home. I highly recommend this place.

It was such a Wonderful Dining experience. I am so THANKFUL that one of Charlotte's premier classic restaurants is still up and running in supreme operation. 3rd generation. The decor is cozy and fun, the food was so piping hot and fresh, and the servers were really friendly. The House pizza and garlic cheese bread is Always so GOOD. I smiled the whole time... I highly recommend eating here!!!

This is by far the BEST pizza and pasta in Charlotte! The pizza has amazingly soft crust, the pasta sauces are tremendous, and the garlic bread is out of this world. They also play the best music ever! I cannot say enough great things about this place and highly recommend it! 😊

Best cheese steak in town. Can’t lie. Love the cheese steaks. Price is great and a good portion of food. Changing stars from 5 to 4. They no longer come with chips. Just the sub. Not sure why. Chips are only like 50cents

Pizza was very good. Next time I would ask for a couple more minutes to crisp the crust. Actually, the best pizza I have eaten South of the Mason Dixon line. The Antipasto salad was made fresh. The Baklava was sweet and delightful. The decor is very 80's, as is the music playing. But, a return visit will be planned. Definitely worth trying, in my opinion. Update: made a return visit and the pizza was disappointing. The outside crust was pale and the center was soft. Sadly it is now off my shortlist.

I don’t like pizza that much but this place has some good delicious pizza, but mainly I came here for the raviolis and the past Alfredo. The Dessert was really good, my family and I were very pleased and we enjoy it a lot. We will definitely come back again to try more. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I ordered a pickup order tonight that totaled $59.53. Chicken Alfredo, sausage sub no onions and peppers, hot wings and chicken Philly. My chicken Philly came with nothing but meat and cheese. I didn’t enjoy it at all. The order was suppose to come with two bags of chips but did not. The wings were bland. Now this happened once or twice before but I did not write a review because everyone is entitled to an off day, but at dam near $60 dollars an off day shouldn’t happen. Worse part is today is Sunday and they don’t open on Monday. I am trying to figure out how to leave a photo.This place does have good food but check your order before you leave, especially evening orders done 8pm or later because you might not get all your food or your order cooked right. Dine in is better.

Had a very nice visit this evening with Perla, and the Extra Special pizza was very delicious, with the addition of pineapple. Perla kept my cup full of good coffee too. If you're in the mood for some good pizza, give the House of Pizza a visit, you will not be disappointed.

Yet again, I have come back to House of Pizza and it still stands the test of time. Surviving through COVID along with a renovation, the food is still legit. Last time I visited, Helen was still there running things. Service was still top notch, and the ambiance for an afternoon is still that family feeling. I hope this place will stay around the neighborhood as it's a staple for the city and community.

Went with my best friend and her husband who have been going to this place since middle school! The lasagna was really good and definitely homemade! The service is very friendly and gets your order correct immediately. This place has quaint charm and certainly looks like it's been there for a long time, but the food and service are definitely worth going!

The quality of the pizza has gone way down. This is not the pizza that I fell in love with years ago. It's like they are just throwing the food together now with the same prices. I paid for extra cheese and that's not there. They used to have amazing cheesy pizza that you couldn't get anywhere else. Now it's just a greasy mess. The visit before this they have us an empty box with no pizza. We drove back 25 minutes to get the pizza and they had the same pizza they left out and it was cold and not worth the drive. I'm not happy.

Went to House of Pizza with a couple colleagues. The staff is always so friendly, and the food comes out piping hot. I almost always get the $10 baked ziti lunch special, but the subs are also fantastic. (I've had the meatball and the italian). Baked ziti usually also comes with ricotta. Their version is only mozzarella, but has meat sauce, for additional protein. Can't wait to go back again!

A great family meal we all had different food sandwiches were great The Greek salad was good.

My husband and I came to House of Pizza dinner tonight, and we were so pleased with our experience. The staff are very friendly, and you can tell most of the customers are regulars - always a sign of a neighborhood gem :) We each got the Charlotte FC NoDa Pilsner to drink ($4.50 per pint - you never see beer prices that good anymore!), then we shared a 16" pie - half pepperoni & mushroom, half Chicken Philly, with hot marinara sauce on the side for dipping. SO good. Very cheesy and definitely deep-dish style. We were too full to finish our pizza, let alone eat dessert, but I did get a big piece of homemade baklava to take home for tomorrow (was a tough choice between their many homemade desserts). They also had lots of pasta, sub and salad options on the menu that looked great too - we are so excited to come back again soon. If you're looking for a nostalgic, hole-in-the-wall eastside spot for classic Italian-American fare, House of Pizza will not disappoint!

Yummy Philly sub, pizza was ok not NY style. Crust was fluffy. Service was great! Ambiance is low key

Great food at a great price and the staff is very friendly! This reminds me of how restaurants used to be.

Even though this is a pizza place. My family and I love a great salad. And, that's exactly what we go. The Greek Salad either grilled chicken and house dressing is so delicious. Must try it!

Love this place! Don't go often, but whenever I do it's always large portions, great service, and good food. The ambience is family friendly.

The steak and cheese sub at HOP is my favorite! I get it with no peppers, just grilled onions, mushrooms, steak, cheese and mayo!!!

Food is very good..Service is excellent and the Ambiance is pleasant... They have been in the same spot since 1979..

We ordered from here last night, after a recommendation for their Philly Cheesesteak. We were told the steak meat was just like how we had always eaten it as a kid. So we tried it.... as well as the chicken (because I no longer eat beef). My sister was happy with their original philly but I wasn't impressed with the chicken one. I also thought it was a bit pricey for what we got. Two large chicken phillys was around $28 and only came with a bag of ruffles and a pickle. Them not serving fries was a major let down! I will say, we had a large order with lots of specifications and the place did well with getting the order right. Overall for the chicken philly I wouldn't return, but my sister is thrilled with their steak one.

My wife and I come here on a regular basis because of the the great service and delicious large portions of food for a reasonable price

These people are awful. They are so rude.The restaurant is dirty, and I could barely eat the food because of the environment. What I did eat was mediocre, and I couldn't stop thinking that certain things weren't kept very clean. I recommend closing this place for good.

Good food, friendly staff. I love coming to this establishment for food. I usually call my order in.

Best pizza in the world. Love it love it love it!!! I get the house special...it takes 1 visit and your addicted

Went there for lunch the first time since 1993. Got the cheese steak all the way and toasted. It was exactly like I remembered it being...absolutely great!! The place look like it had be renovated and was clean. The young lady that took our order was really sweet and attentive. Personally, I think this is the best cheese steak in Charlotte and will be back when I get a craving. Hopefully it will be sooner than 30 years...

This place has some incredible subs! I personally like the Italiano and Philly Cheesesteak subs! If you want a quick bite then grab it to go! Sitting usually take awhile. Hidden gem for food!

Food is great Service is great Constant flow of customers Plus, the takeout is very convenient

Been coming here since I was a little kid. Best authentic Italian food in Charlotte, NC..

Just ordered some food today 10-15-2023 around 3:45 and the lady who is working in the front is amazing. I know the food will always be hood but the customer service is above and beyond. Keep up the Great Work

Tried a bunch of places and this is the best Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich in Charlotte! Even when you take it to go and eat it 30 min later it tastes great.

This is a well known classic spot in the east side! It's local and it's good! They are known for being a small time capsule when you walk in, it's like going into a small restaurant in Italy. Very old school vibes. Pizza is good. But more importantly to note is their Philly cheesesteak sandwich! It's so good, and big. Comes with mushrooms and peppers but you can get without. Side of chips and pickle, and so well priced. Also top 6 philly in Charlotte, based on a recent article. You have to try it! Very friendly staff, local spot! You can do call in and pick up. Which is all on a separate side of the restaurant with a separate door. Def have safety measures in place for covid which is reassuring.

They suck due to attitude, quality, and less than satisfactory cleanliness. Go to blaze pizza or anywhere. Good luck.

Been there 40 plus years at least. Reminds me of my parents they love that place.

This place is amazing, definitely you get more than expected. The pizza has a nice crunch and they have a wide variety.

This place was recommended to me by a friend for some good wings but I was craving pizza and ordered one. For delivery through grub hub the service was fast and my pizza was still piping hot upon arrival. I ordered the house special and boy was it good. I could only eat two slices as it's so many ingredients that's fills you up very quickly. I can't wait to try the wings next.

I've been eating here for over 35 years. Always consistent. Always good. Can't beat subs and pizza. The pasta dishes are excellent as well. A few "hick-ups" when ordering delivery, but I solved that by dining in (again, since Covid) and picking up my takeout and checking my order before I leave. A true CLT staple and gem. Still the same meat sauce and blue cheese dressing after all these years. God love "the sisters" at House of Pizza.

I was able to try three types of subs here: mushroom steak, roast beef, and meatball. Out of the three, the best one is the mushroom steak, and then the meatball. I wasn't a big fan of the roast beef as the meat was a too dry for me. They are very generous with the meat and cheeses, and everything is well seasoned. Some places will have a sweeter tomato sauce for the meatball sub, but this isn't the case here. I would recommend eating the meatball at the restaurant and not take it out since there is a good bit of sauce which can make the bread soggy if you don't get to eat it immediately.

Every time a 5.great customer service great food , great location. I love the lasagna.

This is a consistently awesome place to eat! My family has ate here all my life. Some of our consistent favorites are the cheese steak sandwiches, spaghetti, Greek salad, and of course one of the best pizzas in Charlotte!

Good food, great portions for a respectable price. Don't let the name fool you, their pastas are the main show!!

After a day of shopping I was in the market for some good fast, not so fast food so my friend recommended House of Pizza. We headed up the side towards the take-out window where we were greeted by Reilly the happy-go-lucky young man stationed at the to-go counter. He passed us some menus but it was hard to decide because everything on the menu sounded scrumptious so we asked Reilly for a few suggestions; he raved about the pizzas, but also told us about the award winning steak sub. He bragged on how If was covered in mushrooms, onions and peppers. He made the steak sub sound so good we decided to order it. 10 minutes later is was ready and let me just say we were not disappointed! This steak sandwich was accompanied by a pickle slice and chips, and boy was it oozing with goodness; it had so much meat and provolone cheese that it spilled out of the hero bread onto the plate (I'm so glad I had a fork handy because I didn't want to waste a drop)! This famous steak sandwich is in the top two best I've ever had and FYI #1 was in Philly! House of Pizza is not just pizza, and it should be on "that" list of must try places.

Ordered a small "meat" pizza, tasted pretty good. The pizza could use more marinara for flavor but it was good. Also ordered hot wings, which was also good. Would def. try again.

I am sorry I have to write this review! I ordered a large cheesesteak with extra meat & cheese. I live in Huntersville this restaurant is in Charlotte on Central Ave. It's a great distance especially in 5pm Friday traffic! I got the sandwich home, and there was absolutely no seasoning on the meat! Bland beef, it was absolutely disgusting! I tried to add seasoning to this $25 sandwich & of course it did not help. When I called to speak to the manager she was not helpful only stating she would ask the cook "what happened "? I explained I never had an issue with anything there. I have been a patron since 2001 when I moved to Charlotte. The manager also said I could bring it back tomorrow when the owner is there! The lease she could have done was offer a new sandwich. Epic Fail Customer Service

The food is excellent. Went there for dinner last evening and it was about a 10 min wait to get seated and well worth the wait. Our waitress was very knowledgeable about the menu and once we were seated the beverages were served right away, our salad were quickly served with the entrees being on our table in a short amount of time. The food is really good and it's a big family size serving for the money. It's a kind of like a family setting, I noticed a lot of customers seemed to know each other and know the staff. Like being in a big old open kitchen having a bite to eat. The waitress really took good care of us; refilling our drinks, making sure everything was served at the right temperature. We enjoyed ourselves and looking forward to returning. I love the Italian style atmosphere and service of this restaurant. We had dessert and it was delicious - the cheese cake with the cherries on top is to die for, absolutely.

From my son: Best pizza place I've ever been to we were just on the road and then we saw this and we were like well better try it and it was just the best I ever had.

Great local spot with great subs and their own delicious style of pizza. Lots of vegetarian options as well. Nice to see a long-time locally-owned restaurant continue to thrive.

Small yet mighty. We ordered a medium meat pizza, wings and salads. The pizza was great. It was very meaty with pepperoni, ground beef, ham and my personal favorite, Italian sausage. The pie was cheesy and delicious. The wings were crispy, well sauced and tasty. The salad was basic and fresh. It's the house dressing which makes it special. Next time I will try the Philly Cheese Steak everyone raves about. Several people were eating them and they looked yummy.

I watched them put my lasagna in the microwave then came out and they put cheese on it and then put it in the pizza oven for bt 5 more mins .!!WOW and then the lady Amy with the glasses on central ave at the pick up cash register straight up told me it's to cool in the inside of the lasagna in the microwave now??And I told that lady don't no real Italian lasagna makers don put no lasagna in no microwave..

YaYa MeeMaw loves this place. They're pretty consistent. We have a house special pizza, cheese steak and onion, kid's chicken tenders, and their house made greek italian, ranch, and blue cheese dressings. Yumminess.

So I was so excited to come here while this used to be my favorite place to get lasagne. All summer and last year they were closed for renovations so when my mother informed me they are back open I was stoked and ready to head on over only to be a little disappointed. I always ordered the lasagne dinner which came with a house salad and garlic bread I swear none of it tasted as good as I remember before the closing and renovations. I'm not sure how I feel about house of pizza now because before I held them to such a high standard .

I've been here twice . First time for pizza and it was good. The second time Was last night after an AllStar party . The service was really slow so we were waiting a long time to order even though it wasn't super packed at first . Our waitress wasn't very attentive. She bought out two regular lasagnas instead of a veggie one that I ordered . The lasagna however was pretty good. I can do away with the garlic bread. I thought the price (11.25) was decent for your entree , a salad and garlic bread plus a dollar for cheese on my salad. I'll go back, I just don't expect great service .

This a great family owned vibe restaurant with great food. We ordered a Philly cheesesteak and a supreme pizza which had great flavor. The portions are generous and the dough was very tasty. Our server was very friendly and attentive to our every needs. I would only add that the dining room decor felt dated and no music or ambience. However everything apart I will be back since the food was awesome!

Always great. Always consistently good food. Love the Philly cheesesteak, just wish they served fries!

If you're vegetarian they have amazing lasagna! The cheese pizza is extra cheesy! The service is great! Would definitely recommend!

Nice people and good food. I primarily order take out and that area has become lax. Often, you may stand there waiting for someone to come to cashier, while your takeout sits cooling. That used to never be an issue. Also, I've noticed my subs being rationed. Being propped up by two days of shredded lettuce. That used to never be an issue. I could be wrong, but it seems like different people may be preparing the food now. One day I had a couple of strips of a meat, on top of a mountain of shredded lettuce. The sub was primarily lettuce and bread. There subs aren't cheap. So that stings pretty good when you open your order.

I understand COVID 19 has made life difficult, but my order took an extra 45 minutes for a pick up. They also are changing $1.00 per item because their prices went up. 3 subs were $36. They are not handling the change very well. They have a sign on the door that mask are required but many people didn't wear them. And the didn't enforce the issue.
