Pizza Pazzo

The best Neapolitan pizza in Charleston! Pizza Pazzo delivers the perfect Neapolitan pizza experience! The crust is soft and airy with a satisfying crunch, and the perfectly charred underside adds a smoky depth. The sauce is vibrant and delicious, striking the perfect balance of tangy and sweet. This is Charleston's pizza at its finest!

We went there based on a 4.7 Google rating so we had high expectations and were let down. The Caesar salad was good, but we had a Margherita pizza (it was no meat Lent Friday) and it was tasteless. The texture of the crust was great, but the pie literally had no taste. I've never put salt and pepper on pizza until I went here. They had some random Italian TV network on that showed how to butcher a pig to eat. This happened while we were eating. 🤢 We won't be back.

Spaghetti and Meatballs for Tuesday dinner, eating in was an enjoyable meal. I started with Caesar Salad which was beautifully dressed. Delicious perfection. The entre sauce is hearty and the meatballs are large and dense. I had Mango sorbetto to end which was fresh and fruity. I like the room and the service was happily friendly, thanks. I recommend!

I haven’t been this blown way by pizza in quite a while. This is the best I’ve tried in Charleston. I come here every other week for business three days and I like to try different places. Aasia the host is phenomenal. She is the icing on the cake. Very friendly and knowledgeable. She is a pizza fan herself from Italy. That’s worth the price of admission right there. I tried the pizza, lasagna and a fried calzone, which I’ve never had a fried calzone before only a regular. Both were amazing. I can taste the proper tomatoes. The crust has the perfect amount of chewiness, crispiness, stiffness, and softness. It’s literally competition level pizza. I wish I had better pizzas. Halfway eaten in the box doesn’t do it justice lol.

Amazing pizza! If you like spicy, try spicy pepperoni pizza - Fra Diablo, it won't disappoint. The pizza was so good, I forgot to take a photo. You can't go wrong with the Caprese Salad as a starter.

This is a hidden gem! The pizza is outstanding...if you are looking for authentic neopolitan pizza, this is the place. Very friendly service and has a big repeat customer base that they knew by name.

We love Pizza Pazzo’s thin, crispy crust. Our go-to pizza place in Mt. P. Hunter always provides great customer service. Pictured are our favorites: Fra’ Diavola (Spicy Pepperoni) and the Napoli. If you haven’t tried it, you’re missing out!

On vacation and family wanted pizza for dinner. Based on the reviews decided to give this place a try. So glad we did. Pizza was excellent! Everyone in our party ordered a different pie, and everyone was very happy with their food.

5 stars. No question. We just moved from up north and have tried a couple of pizza places in Mt pleasant, this was by far my favorite. Get mozzarella sticks- homemade circles of excellence. Also - Pizza crusts were perfect and red sauce just like grandma. Go for the limoncello cake too it won't disappoint. Would recommend the meatballs too. We got margherita pizza and the fra diavolo Kid friendly felt very small town. Not a large place and located a little tucked away but definitely go! Bonus for not having an hour wait like other Mt. pleasant restaurants.

There's nothing not to like about this pizza-centric outpost to its sister restaurant, Cuocco Pazzo, located in the same strip center on Johnnie Dodds Blvd. The interior is small and intimate with maybe 10 tables and a two stool 'bar' which also serves as a counter for pick up orders. Beverages are limited to beer, wine and soda. There's 4 appetizers of which three are fried and of course, meatballs in marinara ... three salads - Caesar, Caprese and House, several calzones, 3 paninis and 10 specialty pizzas, one size. We also reviewed a sheet with 7 pasta dishes which seemed odd given these same entrees are offered at Cuocco Pazzo, a few doors away. Our order was simple. We were sharing the Caprese salad ($13.49) and a Carnivoro (Meat Lovers) pizza. Our server, Grazie, advised that they were running out of pepperoni (huh?) and that other meats would be increased. Hub started with a great pour of Chianti, well priced at $7.00/glass. We both enjoyed their take on the Caprese salad - it was a perfect size for sharing. The presentation was lovely ... 8 half moon slices of fresh, seasoned mozzarella, alternating with thin slices of juicy tomato topped with a chiffonade of fresh basil ... accompanied by a nice portion of fresh mixed greens, gently tossed with a yummy balsamic vinegar. The pizza, probably between 12-13 inches was delicious, but, perhaps a bit overpriced at $21.95. The crust was thin, which is my preference. The toppings were tasty ... but, there could have been more and it could have been crisper which knocked my rating down from 5 stars to four. We ordered the mini cannoli to go. They were tasty, but overpriced at $6.00, considering their size. Our server was friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back. I love a panini and definitely want to share the Caesar!

While this place registers as being new, it is apparently a reorganization of some existing business. The interior is more well put together than you'd think for a shopping mall kind of location, but I was the only one eating in person while several other customers left with takeout, which surprised me. Particularly given that the Neapolitan style of pizza is really best right out of the oven, as the texture changes within minutes. Service was a bit of a struggle as they apparently had drafted someone from the kitchen staff to act as a waiter, and this person did agree with me that people who weren't eating this pizza fresh were missing the point. I ordered my margherita with a single topping of hot cherry peppers, and they were excellent peppers that added a ton of flavor. The browning of the crust, and the richness of the cheese both suggested good quality ingredients. My options besides pizza were somewhat limited, being a vegetarian who doesn't like olives, but as far as executing a proper Neapolitan pizza, the wood-fired oven and the substance of what they're making were worth coming for me.

It's been a while since I have posted about my favorite pizza restaurant in Mt. Pleasant, @pizzapazzomtp , so I figured I had better fix that! This time I ventured out from just ordering their pizza and also ordered their Italian Panino. This was an absolutely delicious sandwich loaded with Ham, salami, prosciutto d' parma, provolone cheese, spring mix. The bread was perfectly crusty, but not chewy and was so good. I also ordered my favorite pizza from them, the Capricciosa. This pizza is soooo flipping great and generously topped with San Marzano tomato sauce, Mozzarella cheese, Salami, Ham, Artichokes, Mushrooms, Kalamata olives, basil, EVO Oil. It was cooked perfectly and was still nice and hot when it arrived via UberEats. I highly recommend Pizza Pazzo!

The crust gets 4/5 stars but the rest is 1-2. Hardly any toppings and the sauce was blah. I would not go back b

This is the best pizza I've had so far in Mount P, shocked that the entire place was empty when I came in on a Saturday night. Love the thin Naples style pizza, we ordered a classic margherita and the veggie pizza with some pepperoni added on top (the chef's favorite, was amazed at how delicious this was with no sauce). Sad to hear that business has been a bit slow for them, go order a pie or two (or ten) you won't regret it!

We had pizzas and appetizers. Service was quick and friendly. The pizzas had very little sauce and cheese, and were very bland. We were very disappointed.

We were in town on vacation, and were in the mood for pizza, and quick scan of pizza places in the area landed us on Pizza Pazzo. It was a weekday night, about 7:30, so as it turns out we were the only people in the restaurant. It's not a big dining room, but it's very nicely laid out with great decor. Pizzas only come in one size, but it was easily large enough to share between two people with a slice or two left over. We got the Marguerite pizza, with fresh mozzarella and basil and it was excellent! This is the type of pizza that is more the thin crust, woodfired oven kind of pizza, not your thick pan pizza like you get it other places. We also got a Caesar side salad, which was enormous, and luckily the owner had warned us that it was big enough to share which we did. The food was delicious, we would absolutely go back in a heartbeat! Definitely give this place a try!

Amazing pizza! True authentic Naples pizza! The owner is straight from Italy. The food was fantastic and wonderful prices. Will absolutely be coming back!

I came in late on a Monday night. First time. Hunter was helpful and attentive as I sat at the tiny (2 seat) but cozy bar. He was working both front and back of the house and made me feel right at home. The pizza took less than 10 minutes straight for the wood-fired oven. It was delicious. They are now open for lunch and also have GF options. Thank you Hunter for making my first visit enjoyable. I'll be back!

we had the pizza delivered. I just don't know what to say. I'm not even sure it was a pizza! Papa Johns is better! A frozen pizza would have been better!!! it was totally dried up and the crust was all burnt. I am totally shocked that the owner would allow this monstrosity to leave his restaurant! what an insult to good old fashioned pizza!

HOLY COW!!! This is the closest we have had to Italian Pizza this side of the pond. We WILL go back!!!

My family and I decided to try this new restaurant out based on its reviews. Upon entry the service seem to be slow but decided to give it a shot considering the reviews. Actually, I think the reviews are fraud as a service was awful. They took over 45 minutes for pizza and the order wasn't even done correctly. When our order was place the restaurant a a wasn't busy. My wife's saw so many violations in the kitchen from the chef looking through the window. He was drinking from a pitcher and had an attitude and was always on his phone. The pizza is good but I've had better pizza than this and it's not worth a five star rating. The price for the area is also ridiculous considering lousy service. The restaurant was also very hot!

Pizza Pazzo on Johnnie Dodds Boulevard in Mount Pleasant is a great place to go for all things delicious and well prepared pizza and much more. I have been impressed with all of the orders that I have made from here. The staff here is very friendly and accommodating to make sure that you have everything that you need.

The food is delicious! Pizza had such a perfect crust with the great balance of sauce and cheese. Kudos to Hunter who is the chef and had to be the server as well ! Great job!

Idk who's granny they imported to run that kitchen but she's the closest we'll get to the authentic Italian taste. Flavorful sauce, great texture and cooked properly. Will be back regularly.

I don't think I can put into words how amazing this place is! Hunters attention to detail was phenomenal and we're already looking forward to our next date night here! Thank you so much for the wonderful food!!

Have been here twice now with my girlfriend and we LOVED it. amazing ambiance, the chef literally walked out front to pick the basil for the Margherita, super delicious and light, perfectly cooked. a liiiittle pricey but definitely worth it imo. one of my favorite date spots.

Really great pizza. Has been my favorite in town. Wine prices are reasonable. Will make Pizza Pazzo a regular stop.

Best Pizza I've had in a while, will go there again, Great crust, cheese and toppings. Great service, Cozy and comfortable. So good, looking forward to the next trip.

Authentic Neapolitan pizza, so light and delicious! Not to mention excellent service, the staff is incredibly friendly! Pizza Pazzo is an absolute hidden gem in Mount Pleasant!

If you are hungry for the best lunch in town, come to Pizza Pazzo. Hunter makes the best Neapolitan pies plus sandwiches and salads. Bring your appetite, you won't be disappointed

We tried Pizza Pazzo last night we're definitely Pizza folks. We were hoping this would be a good alternative to Mt. Pleasant's BEST PIZZA LaPizzeria (still closed due COVID-19 please reopen soon Laura) j Unfortunately not close at all! Pizza Pazzo very average (maybe the sauce is too sweet for our taste - and the pie was not cooked long enough) needed to reheat the crust immediately at home. That should not happen for a 14" pizza close to twenty dollars cost! Nice inside dining ambiance though. I'm back to Orlando's Pizza next time till the reopening of LaPizzeria.

We just happened upon this place while in search for a pizza place to satisfy our pizza craving. Cute little Italian pizza restaurant with very friendly server. Apparently the Cuoco Pazzo around the corner is owned by the same owner. This restaurant covers the pizza dishes and the other restaurant the pasta dishes I guess. The pizza was amazing. They have their pizzas cooked in a wood-burning oven. I think the owner is Italian so pretty sure the food was authentic Italian food. Yummm!

Pizza is delicious, fried mozzarella is the classic round slices, and Hunter is a chef and server worthy of your time!

Excellent pizza! Enjoyed the wood fire taste. Ingredients tastes very fresh and unique. Service was great and it's a cool little place for a quick date night.

Ok. So my sister didn't do this spot justice. They are freakin Amazin'!! The bomb diggity yo! The spicy pepperoni was great. The meat lovers was oh so good. Hunter was the best. Oh...by the way the mozzarella sticks were fire! Spot was really clean. Next time I'm in town, I will definitely be back. Location is easy to find and it was a great environment. My kiddos loved it too!

Such GREAT pizza! My friend from Philly says it's better than anything up there. Fresh cheeses and herbs, great calzones and also try the meat ball appetizer ! Delicioso ! Wonderful staff and very knowledgeable and personable cook!! Don't miss this place !! Great atmosphere

Very unassuming but the food is delicious. Try the meatballs! Wine prices super reasonable for dine-in.

Stopped in while in the area and were very pleasantly surprised by some very good thin crust pizza! Been there a couple of more times, really enjoyed it!

If you're looking for your standard chain/bar pizza, this is not it. Pizza Pazzo has great wood fired neopolitan pizza. Keep it simple and go with their Margherita pizza. We'll be back for sure. Hopefully, dine-in next time so we can have the pizza fresh out of the wood fired oven.

Pizza Pazzo was amazing for my family and me. Although we came in right before the dinner rush, Hunter was attentive and prepared our food with the utmost care. We were a large, and very hungry, party but did not have to wait very long. Hunter was single-handedly dealing with phone orders and dine-in orders without making anyone feel like they were being ignored. I can't say enough how much I enjoyed the quality food and service.

Pizza Pazzo has become one of our go-to restaurants when we're in the mood for a good NY style pie and willing to take a little extra drive. We love their pizza! The crust is tasty and cooked to perfection. We've tried several and have not been disappointed. Here are a couple things to consider when ordering to go. I'm not sure if part of this is COVID related but if you have more than a 10-minute ride, order when you're getting in your car or it will be ready before you get there. Although we don't really live that far, it seems we can't get there in less than 20 minutes... those darn route 17 lights! However, that hasn't stopped us, we simply order, jump in the car, and go. We've also just accepted the fact that it takes a little while so we just warm up the oven on low when we get home, and stick it in there to keep it warm. Anyway, although I said "NY Style", I guess it's really Napoletana Style, which in my opinion is close anyway. Darn good pizza, reasonably priced, quick friendly service!

Started going here right around the beginning of covid. (our other favorite pizza place was closed). Never ever , ever been disappointed here , pizza is great , meatballs are great, good prices on wine. Hunter is awesome.

Definitely one of our favorite pizza spots in town! Hunter is so nice and the service is always fantastic.

Wonderful food, atmosphere and service. Chef Davide is marvelous. Best pizza in Charleston!!

We arrived just after they had opened so it was still pretty quiet. The location makes this restaurant very unassuming, but we were very pleasantly surprised. We have been searching for an authentic pizza as good as the one we had in Naples, and this was a close second!! We both ordered the margarita which was perfectly crispy. The sauce was delicious and the cheese was perfectly melted. For dessert we had the limoncello cake. It was bright and bursting with delicious flavor and topped with a creamy icing. We can't wait to come back!

We picked up from here so this review is based only on the pizza quality, which was outstanding. As a lover of all types of pizza, Pizza Pazzo is definitely at the top of the heap when it comes to the Neapolitan style pizza. Diavola spicy pepperoni pie was simply outstanding. The meatballs also hit the spot with a sweet and flavorful sauce.

We used to love coming here when it was Cuca Pazzo, it was so nice, family style and the food was delicious. Me and my wife came in to have dinner at 745 on a friday, there were 2 tables of people outside and 1 inside. The guy working there took a bit to say anything but then said "give me a minute" and went to the back. We waited by the door a while, then after several minutes (we can see him talking to somebody through the kitchen door) the the guy in back came out and said "yea you can sit anywhere im on my own here", then walked back into the kitchen (made it sound as if we were a burden to him). So we took our business next door to the french restaurant. Our dinner next door was great, we sat outside and enjoyed everything, but could not help but notice the people sitting outside of the pizza place complaining. Shame we use to love the location, maybe it was a bad night but it definitely left me a bad taste.

Im SO impressed. The best pizza I've had in Charleston. True Neapolitan pizza - I felt like I was in Italy. Definitely will be back

Just ate dinner at pizza Pazzo and it was delicious. The staff is wonderful and prompt, but the pizza was incredible. And half price wine on a Friday night, how can you beat it? Seriously worth the visit. Be sure to check this place out.

Food was great, but terrible service. Let me make it clear that we were the ONLY table at the restaurant. First of all, our entree came out before our appetizer. Then, the waitress walked off and disappeared without providing us with napkins or silverware. We had to get up and take napkin rolls off another table. And next, our server brings us the check before we're even done eating...lots of rookie mistakes. I understand that staff is difficult to come by these days, but hoping reviews like this can help school new servers. Sometimes poor service can ruin your whole experience and dissuade from you from wanting to return in future.

Very good Pizza. I'm from NY/LI and will be trying other places, but this one is a keeper.

Most authentic Italian pizza in Mt Pleasant! Thin crust, excellent toppings finished in wood burning pizza oven. Try the arancini- Italian rice balls with a tasty filling. The mozzarella sticks are tasty, too. Then there are the sandwiches- meatball and mozzarella with basil. Friendly service, casual setting, Mondays- Thursday half price wine. Leave room for dessert! Authentic cannoli, tiramisu, lemon cream cake. Enjoy!!!

We wanted to expand our pizza horizons this evening and carried out from this nearby option. Suffice it to say, we are so glad we did. The flavor generated from the most basic ingredients was phenomenal. Cannot recommend enough if you are seeking pizza in Mt. Pleasant.

pizza was amazing and the chef was incredibly nice. hats off to you hunter, this was the best pizza ive ever had.

If you are a fan of authentic Italian pizza, this is the place for it! We had the Ortolana vegetarian pizza and the meat lovers pizza, and they were both delicious! The ingredients are fresh, and the pizza is cooked in a wood-burning oven! The place is beautiful, and the pizza chef was wearing a mask, which we really appreciated during Covid-19!
