Pizza Prospero

Amazing food, nice take on pizza, it has a much more authentic feel than most other places, service is spectacular and friendly! Location is great, right by the connector to IOP. The fried pizza and fried calzone is absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also, be sure to try the Jamaican beef Patty, you won't regret it!!!

Visiting the area for a wedding and stayed in Mt. Pleasant. So glad I tried this place! The area is lucky to have it. The best pizza I’ve ever had. (That’s a big statement). The pizza crust is airy and crisp with amazing flavor. The sauce has a bit of sweetness which makes my taste buds very happy. The garlic knots were great also. Topped it off with some zeppoles and I’m one happy visitor. Can’t wait to come back!

Top notch thin crust pizza. Great crust, great sauce, the right amount of cheese, quality ingredients. One of the best slices around Mount P. I come from the northeast and this is one of the few places that knows how to construct and cook a pizza right. If you like a little more crisp to your crust ask for it "extra crispy". They consistently make a great pizza.

The first time we went it was pretty good, especially for SC standards. We went back tonight, this time with the whole family and it was not good at all. The breadsticks were burned and the pizza was cold. We did originally order ahead for pick-up but decided to eat in once we got there. When I asked about the pizza being cold the server said “yeah there’re a lot better when they’re hot”. Service was also very poor, after getting our drinks we never saw the server again until I asked for the check. This place had some promise but appears to be significantly overpriced for what you get. Maybe someone will open a real NY pizza shop in Mt Pleasant.

Simply put, this place is Mount Pleasant’s best Italian restaurant. Upon walking in, the staff greeted us with nothing but kindness and energy. Our waitress was really helpful in helping us to decide what we should order–especially since we weren’t in a pizza mood. We eventually decided upon the garlic knots and Ana’s Arancini balls to split. When the kitchen accidentally gave us an extra order of the Focaccia bread, they let us keep it! I thought that admitting an honest mistake to the customers, as well as letting them have extra food showed this restaurant’s generous attitude towards its customers. I am not a tomato fan at all. I hate tomatoes in salad, in red sauce, and in general. But I found myself dipping my bread in their tomato sauce again and again. And trust me, I absolutely hate tomatoes. It was life changing. After we finished our food, we were even offered extra pizza to bring home with us! In simple, this restaurant is Mount Pleasant (and Charleston)’s best addition to the pizza and Italian food scene. The staff are energetic, friendly, and kind. The food is delicious, fresh, and home made. If you are looking for amazing Italian food, this is the place to go.

Has Potential but not sure its worth the premium. They are trying to look, feel and even taste like a NY pizza place but their menu and pricing does not. The pizza is good but with an 18" plain pie starting at $18 and then $3 to $4 a topping, you end up with a pizza priced beyond what you would pay in most of NYC. Bold for a place that is just starting out and Mount Pleasant is expensive but its not quite at NYC. I hope they dial that in or maybe put some specials out for locals because it does have potential but right now not worth the premium.

Fantastic food, excellent service! Some of the best pizza I've ever had. And don't pass up on the dessert, their Tiramisu is outstanding. *We went back the next night. I have the Arancini, my husband had the Stromboli and we split a Panacotta. We stayed and chatted with a couple of the regular customers and the staff. They love what they do and it shows. This will be a must stop on our next Mt. Pleasant/IOP visit.

Very good pizza. Thin, tasty sauce and great flavor. Used “On the Way” for delivery and my order arrived barely warm. On the Way is also expensive - many fees. Next time I’ll just wait for the pizza and pick iit up myself and know that it’s hot.
