Best pizza I've had in a long time! I had read and heard good things about this place, and I can tell you that it lived up to the hype! I got the 2.0 Honey Pie, and it was incredible. Absolutely delicious, with a perfect touch of sweetness from the honey and some heat from the red pepper flakes. But the best part was the crust. So light and crunchy, unlike any crust I had ever had before. Can't wait to go back!

On our last full day in Charlotte for work is when we discovered King of fire. I am ultra picky when it comes to pizza and almost never enjoy "artisan" pies .... King of fire is now the exception to the rule. We started off with a Honey pie (My boss, colleague and I were interested in trying this and it did not disappoint) and a New Yorker (I personally loved this pie the most) .. after we demolished these 2 pies we then ordered their meat pie the Excalibur... another amazing example. At this point we had engaged the staff in conversation and let them know we were in town for work and were intrigued with their offerings. The employees treated us to a Honey pie 2.0 on them and again it did not disappoint. After all was said and done we wondered how the honey would be on an Excalibur..... it works just as well. Thank you for capping off a great business trip with phenomenal pizza offerings. We made sure to walk back to the hotel so we could try and feel less guilty about taking down 5 10" pizzas among 3 of us 😅... I had no shame and would gladly return of and when I am back in the Charlotte area... Thank you again to the staff 🙏

We have a new gluten-free option in Uptown Charlotte! King of Fire Pizza imports their gluten-free flour from Italy and make their gluten-free crust before regular flour is ever even in the kitchen! When a gluten-free pizza is ordered the make line is cleared, all gloves are changed and clean utensils are used. My sister and I definitely felt safe eating here! They also have vegan cheese for those that are dairy free!

If you like a thin and crunchy slice, this is the place for you. Being from NY, I’m definitely a hard critic so I will say I wish the sauce played a bigger role in this pie, it was more on the dry side! Overall, I did enjoy and the sausages were pretty tasty.

I discovered this restaurant in Charlotte on Google Maps. Their Honey Pie 2.0 pizza is exceptional. It has a thin and crispy crust that perfectly blends sweet and slightly spicy flavors. It’s not too heavy. If you’re a pizza enthusiast in the area, I highly recommend it. The prices are reasonable, and I guarantee any pizza I eat in the future will be compared unfavorably to this one. I’m planning a return trip to Charlotte just to have it again.

Fantastic pizza, light crust. Delicious. Breaded chicken actually makes for a good topping! Review includes zoomed in shot of pizza you didn't know you wanted.

The food was delicious and the staff was amazing!! We came in right after they had closed, not realizing, but the staff was so kind, they offered to still make us pizzas! The food was absolutely delicious!! Thanks for giving us such a great experience after a day of travel!

Great new place. Pizza is fantastic. Order comes our quick. Had the margarita and a honey pie and both were excellent. Not overly greasy and no flop. Prices are very reasonable as get a perfect sized personal pie for same price you will get for most sandwich and salads up town these days.

Best thin crust fire baked pizza in town. The crust was super thin but sturdy enough to hold the cheese and sauce. A hint of char in the crust paired well with the hot honey on the side for dipping. Glad this business is finally in a store front and bonus, it's by my office in uptown. Looking forward to catering my next team lunch here.

Greeted upon entering, provided with bathroom code & received validated parking. Honey pie 2.0 & Italian salad were my favorites. Excalibur was satisfying although not something I'll reorder. Establishment was clean had a cool playlist.

Food Truck came to our neighborhood and lemme feel you!!! - - it was delicious! I don't like doughy pizza. I prefer fresh thin pizza. We ordered pepperoni with sausage and we ordered cheese with basil. OMG!! Ya'll* Go get one!! You won't be disappointed.

I never thought I'd like honey on my pizza! We walked passed this pizza shop and randomly decided to stop in. The lady at the register taking the orders was friendly and waited patiently as we figure out what we wanted to order. We ended up going with a small honey pizza. It came with pepperoni, honey, and crushed red pepper. Took about 10 minutes to make as it wasn't too busy in there. Once we got our pie we decided to just eat in the restaurant. The crust was crisp and flaky, the cheese pull was grand, and the toppings gave the perfect amount of sweet and savory. King of fire is a must if you're in the Charlotte area. Tucked into an area of shops and a nice walking area, kings is perfect for a family lunch/dinner outing or a romantic date.

Solid pizza! Love the thin crust of this pie, perfectly charred and freshly baked. I am a big fan of the small pepperonis and personally think it elevates a classic pepperoni pizza. It was $13 for a 10" pizza, which I don't mind for a singular person; especially for a wood-fire pizza. Would consider ordering from them again.

I checked this place out during lunch. The pizza was just the right size and tasted good. The service was fast and served hot. The ambience is very casual. There is spacious seating inside. Great spot to grab a quick bite.

Excellent pizza. Building your own is the way to go. Only thing missing is that they don't sell beer. Great stop for dinner before a Panther game.

THE CRISPIEST CRUST IVE EVER HAD! Felt like a cracker at one point - so so yummy. the sweet honey and sweet marinara paired well with the salty bacon. expensive and a little small but delicious

The pizza and garlic knots were delicious. And the service for takeout was speedy. Either get the hot honey or the side of honey for the pizza. Who knew honey could set these dishes off.

After visiting the Mint Museum with friends, we ate at King of fire pizzeria. My food was prepared by Adam and Corey they made suggestions based on my being from California (adding arugula, etc.). But it was their personality and their fun attitudes that was a topping of a deliciously crusty and flavorful pie. Thanks guys.

Pizza's are good quality and reasonably priced in nice/upscale downtown neighborhood. The only downside was that there was no way to get a medium pizza - just 10 inch. Service was good. Will visit again if are nearby.

Usually when a place first opens I tend to wait a little bit before trying it. This gives them a chance to iron out the kinks that usually occur when a opening a new restaurant. I made an exception for King of Fire! The location across from the Sandwich Club has seen some other businesses come and go and unfortunately had been unoccupied for quite some time. When I saw signage go up signaling the pending debut of King of Fire I was very optimistic, as I had heard great things about their food truck. Their 10" pies run around $15, and you have the option to build your own or to try one of their creations. I elected to go with the New Yorker which includes generous portions of sausage and pepperoni, along with beautiful little dollops of ricotta! It's a great looking pizza, that tastes even better. The bottom crust was cooked to perfection so there wasn't excessive flop and the ingredients didn't just slide right off. Easily one of my favorite pizzas I've had in a while.

The pizza is outstanding. In town for a conference and found this place on Yelp. Glad we decided to go. I had the Hardy Pickle and my friend had the Cal Italia. Both were awesome. The staff inside were great. We also had the garlic knots and cannolis which were well worth it.

Wanted to try this, it looked amazing online! Went, paid for parking. Walked in started to order and the person said we could not eat there. Weird they have tables and food???? They said they were take out only and we could not sit at a table. It's 29 degrees, we wanted to eat there not take a pizza home and have to reheat. We were the only people there??? Say it on your website so I could not waste my time and money please! Owner responded his apologies and sent us a gift certificate. We tried it today and it was great! We had honey pie regular and the 2.0, hardy pickle,cannolis and house salad. Plenty of food! Delish. Pizza was really perfect. Dining room was busy, great atmosphere. Will definitely come again. Appreciated the response and so glad we gave it a try!

Our order was a masterpiece, the ambiance was sophisticated yet welcoming, and the service was truly unmatched. Spending time here with loved ones was amazing.

Didn't realize that there is a brick and mortar for this place. The food truck comes to my neighborhood often and the pizza is already delicious. I love that I can order online and just pick up. We have to check out the ambiance of the dine in experience.

The name sounds kinda like an Indian restaurant. The pizza is good. Loved the margherita. Great crust. Low key the best pizza in Uptown.

This is the one place that I can eat pizza and not feel gross after! They use quality ingredients. The crisp level of the dough is top notch, as well as the ratio of sauce/cheese. And super excited they are now on DoorDash and UberEats for dinner! The Honey Pie stole my heart but hoping to branch out and try another of their many pizza options

Yelp
Wonderful service and really delicious, unique pizzas! It was fast too. There were five of us, and we got five pizzas, then rotated slices. We got the Si's Special, Honey Pie 2.0, Excalibur, Pickle, and Hawaii 5-0. The Pickle pizza was honestly probably the biggest hit! Closely followed by the Si's Special and Excalibur.

This place earns my sigma star but the pizza sauce is sweet for some reason which is kinda gross but I'll give an extra star since hmby nx t me was wasting the parmesan

Yelp
Second visit wasn't as good as the first one but still solid pizza overall and highly recommended. The pizza is thinner, crispy crust which I really like but I don't recommend overloading it with multiple meat or other toppings that can cause the crust to lose its texture. I'll keep it simple next time.

Pizza is great, and I am very particular! We loved the honey pie and the one with arugula, can't wait to try the others.
