Zämbies Pizza

Good pizza, thin large crispy slices. Probably the only place I don’t get a cheese slice. My go to is the sleeping beauty, but all of the ones we’ve have tried have been good. These slices are huge and baked just right. It is usually busy, but they have a good system for ordering and the line moves quick. Not much seating and it’s a high traffic so some parts don’t look as pristine all the time. Parking may be an issue. We definitely get it to go and enjoy it on our walk or in the car.

Stopped in for a quick lunch at Zambies. From standing in line I could tell the manager or owner seemed very personable and had made a lot of relationship with his customers. They had a special with a Mexican restaurant across the road. They have come up with something with it. It was very good. The cheese and pepperoni were really good too. Although large slices they are very thin with a crisp. So not as daunting as they seem. The crust on the end was surprisingly fluffy which really helped balance the pizza. It’s a small shop with limited seating but worth trying to grab a seat and a bite.

Pizza slices are HUGE! As big as your head and they’re delicious!!! They have traditional toppings and other funky combinations as well. $7 per slice or $50 per pie. Thin crust and have to fold to eat, and the crust had a garlic flavored, SO GOOD!! Highly recommend!

I’ve had pizza all over the world. NYC included. I tried this pizza and couldn’t stop thinking about it for 3 days. So I had to come back. I’m here on my second visit and really getting a chance to sample things. The pepperoni is honestly just such perfection that you can’t miss out on it but don’t let that stop you from trying things like the sleeping beauty and the buffalo chicken. It’s the sauce and the crust for me. They’ve done both so perfectly! I truly don’t think you can leave here unsatisfied. I would come back 1,000 times.

I love the pizza here! As a native New Yorker, I can say this pizza is up there with the best of them and def in the top 3 of the best pizza I EVER had. The crust!?! When I see that garlic, butter brush come out - I know what time it is! My favorite thing about Zambies is that they are consistent. Any time or day of the week, the pizza is still excellent! Highlight recommend this place if you are craving delicious pizza! 🍕

I am so glad we stopped into this little pizza shop!! They have something special here! We were sightseeing while at a break from a conference and were told to check Zambia’s pizza out! We can just after 11a and while they were not technically open, Chad welcomed us in and let us know that they had some pizza ready already and were making more so we could order! He recommended the daily special, which was “Not your ordinary pasta wheel” i think. It was absolutely delicious, a cross over of a cacio y pepe and a white pizza, coming together in perfection! He also let us try the house favorite, which is their Sleeping Beauty and holy yum! My friend got the Hawhats up and she loved it too! The crust is so flavorful and perfectly cooked! The toppings were perfectly paired and seasoned too! Absolutely a must try especially if you love pizza!

amazing pizza, funnily large. giant tasty slices, great for take-out and leftovers. each slice is like the size of 2 regular slices. service is super quick as reheating the prepped pizzas is very fast. there’s only 8 seats as it’s just a small storefront, but still a nice space. i will say i wish they didn’t use premade garlic spread, but rather something fresh. i just didn’t get the best garlic flavor for the garlic knots.

Best pizza in CLT! Not only is the pizza excellent, but the crust is heavenly. And the staff are incredible, hospitable, and fast, especially Kelli who was so kind and with us. The staff have such a great dynamic in the kitchen and at the front, we love watching them prepare everything with love. We keep coming back and our kids always devour the whole slice! 100% recommend.
