Inizio Pizza Napoletana Dilworth

As a native Sicilian, this is easily my favorite place to get a pizza in Charlotte. I have tried every single pizza on the menu and not one has ever let me down. What you see here are the remains of a Pistachio Pesto pie, Margherita pie, and a Tuscan pie. If I had the willpower, I would have polished them all off myself. Although, if I had eaten another bite, I may have passed away.

Had a fantastic experience here! The customer service was exceptional—Amber, the manager, was incredibly attentive and checked in with us throughout our visit. The food was outstanding and you can truly taste the freshness in every bite. Highly recommended!

This was solid neapolitan pizza. They have multiple different pizza you can get. The atmosphere here is great. Wall art and music with classic lighting make the place nice. We went with the pistachio and the pepperoni pizzas and they came out fairly fast. The pizza was good. It is your standard neapolitan pizza. It wasn't as crunchy or flavorful as I would like. The pistachio was good but was hit or miss with the flavor. The pepperoni was a bit too sweet for my liking with the honey on top. Overall I enjoyed my pizza.

I wasn't sure if I was going to like this pizza or not. I was hesitant about going, but since our friends suggested it we agreed to go. Well, I was pleasantly surprised. Our pepperoni pizza was awesome! The crust was crispy. The tomato sauce and cheese had a great taste to them, and the pepperoni was fantastic. It was a nice clean establishment with a very friendly wait staff. The wait for our pizza was minimal considering they cook the pizza at 900 degrees for 90 seconds. The menu consists of pizza, that's it. However, they do have a wide selection of specialty pizzas and a build your own option as well. They have Gluten Free and cauliflower crust as an option. Parking is in a plaza, so you'll just have to search out a parking spot. We were there on a Sunday afternoon and we were able to easily get a parking spot. Inizio's is located in Dilworth, which is a really nice high end area of Charlotte. Give them a try, I'm sure you won't be disappointed. I was too excited to eat my pizza, I forgot to take pictures. Well, that gives us an excuse to go back!

My daughter is in town for the holidays from San Francisco and we had to come. The Diavalo and Arugula salad was as delicious as ever. Hot fresh and quick service. Extra points for remembering our order after at least a year away! We were regulars though. Great place, great pizza.

The food is always amazing. I come here once a week. The vodka pesto pizza is the best, and I love the seasonal pear pizza. The pumpkin vanilla is also amazing.

My girlfriend and I stopped by Inizio Pizza in Dilworth after the Charlotte Marathon, and it turned out to be just what we needed. The food was delicious, as always, but what really made our experience special this time was the wonderful service. Summer took such good care of us, and she was genuinely kind from the moment we walked in. Even though the place was busy, she never made us feel rushed and checked in at all the perfect moments. After a long race, that kind of warmth and attention really means a lot. We truly appreciated her positive energy and how well she looked after us. Great pizza, a welcoming atmosphere, and truly outstanding service.

Drove in from Nashville, TN, looking for a Neapolitani style pizzeria 🍕 which uses Italian “00” flour which makes fluffy crust and is safe for some people who have a sensitivity to whatever is in/on American flour. Thanks for a yummy evening ending with gelato & pumpkin cheesecake cannoli! 🎃
