Wood-fired organic pizza, weekend bagels, and inventive ice cream
"Salita Pizza opened to great fanfare in the Cargo District in late spring 2023 and continues to draw crowds with wood-fired pizzas and soft-serve ice cream out of a small takeout window. Must-orders include the margherita, the lemon pizza (herb cream, smoked fontina, roasted onion, basil, pistachio), and the roasted Brussels sprouts. Follow Salita on social media to know which weekends it offers Montreal-style wood-fired bagels (they almost always sell out), and keep tabs on occasional pop-ups. A recent pop-up, Wafu Izakaya, offered mortadella musubi, whipped tofu with pizza bianco, and a donburi bowl with winter vegetable Japanese curry." - Matt Lardie
"A pizza-focused restaurant celebrated for amazing pies, frequently singled out as a highlight within the Cargo District food scene." - Eater Staff
"Salita Pizza has taken the ILM dining scene by storm, with wood-fired pizza, Montreal-style bagels, and soft-serve ice cream all out of a tiny, takeout-only space in the Cargo District. There are both seasonal and regular pizzas, and the weekend-only bagels usually sell out. Salita has also been testing different pop-ups, the most recent being Salita Mezze, with a special menu of Mediterranean bites." - Matt Lardie
Cargo District takeout window turning out organic, naturally leavened, wood‑fired pies and weekend bagels. Celebrated by Eater Carolinas and local TV features; a tiny operation with big flavor and strong community ties.
