“Nestled unassumingly in a nondescript strip mall, flanked by a vape shop and a Dollar Tree, lies a culinary treasure that defies its lackluster surroundings. This pizzeria, a beacon of authenticity in the Hickory-Conover-Newton area, delivers an unparalleled pizza experience that transports diners straight to the bustling streets of New York City. Despite its unremarkable exterior—where dimly lit parking lots evoke the moody ambiance of Gotham—the moment you step inside, you’re enveloped in a warm, rustic embrace that feels like stumbling upon a well-kept secret. The star of this establishment is, without question, its pizza. Each pie is a masterpiece, crafted with a thin, airy crust that achieves the perfect balance of crisp and chewy. The foundation is adorned with vibrant, house-made mozzarella that melts into creamy pools, complemented by a robust plum tomato sauce bursting with fresh, tangy sweetness. Premium meats and thoughtfully selected ingredients elevate every bite, ensuring a symphony of flavors that linger long after the last slice. While the price reflects the quality—slightly higher than chain alternatives like Little Caesars, Pizza Hut, or Domino’s—it’s a worthy indulgence. For those seeking a taste without committing to a full pie, generously portioned single slices are available, each a meal in itself. Beyond the food, the heart of this pizzeria is its owner, whose warmth and hospitality transform a simple meal into a memorable experience. On my first visit, even as closing time loomed, he greeted me like an old friend, his genuine kindness culminating in a complimentary slice—a gesture that spoke volumes about the establishment’s ethos. This personal touch sets the pizzeria apart, making every patron feel valued and welcomed. Inside, the atmosphere is a delightful contrast to the exterior’s drab facade. The dining area exudes a charming, rustic authenticity, with cream white walls and arches with weathered brick accents that evoke an old-world Italian trattoria. Though the decor feels intentionally unpolished—almost frozen in time—it adds to the place’s soulful character. The true centerpiece, however, is the expansive, immaculate kitchen, visible through an open counter. It hums with purpose, its gleaming surfaces and organized chaos a testament to the care poured into every dish. In a region where culinary options can feel predictable, this pizzeria stands as a revelation. It’s a place where quality reigns supreme, where the flavors of NYC’s finest pizza parlors are recreated with precision, and where the warmth of human connection elevates the experience. For anyone craving an authentic slice of pizza heaven, this hidden gem is a destination worth seeking out.”

“You know a restaurant is authentic when its menu is small. This restaurant hands down is legit. I ordered a gordita de asada (steak), tamal de puerco, and agua fresca de pepino y limon (cucumber and lime water). It did not disappoint. It offers three different salsas for your liking from mild to spicy. Do yourself a favor and give them a try!”

“It was my first visit to this establishment. There was a $5 fee to join as it is a club. I was by myself and the barkeep made sure I was included with the group already there. Everybody was welcoming and I felt comfortable being there alone. I'm looking forward to my next visit.”

“I came to hickory from statesville to try out the food. It was SO worth it. As a native New Yorker, I was so excited to have some food diversity. It was delicious and made fresh (hence some wait).”

“I remember the first time I came to your bakery with some of my friends we had my dog and I stood outside while they went to get our treats and I remember someone from your staff coming and being so sweet and letting me know you sold dog treats there too! That was so sweet and I loved the extra care in making sure everyone got a treat. The desserts are absolutely beautiful and amazing. I have seen some really beautiful custom cakes that they have made for customers. I would recommend Carpe Crustum Bakery for any of your sweet treat needs.”

“Was really wanting fried chicken for dinner. So we decided to just pick some up before we came home. We decided to give Krispy Krunchy a try since we'd never been.
Gotta say, it is GOOD!!
Its Cajun Style, but NOT overly spicy. Just enough kick to give it an excellent flavor! And it is definitely CRUNCHY!! I'd say it's the best we've had in a LONG time!!
And the young lady working was super helpful. Very friendly, and NICE.
We got good service and great food! We recommend it, and will definitely go back!!”

“Lots of variety, excellent service staff, shrimp sauce is a little runnier than I normally like it, but still tastes great. The chicken egg rolls are actually made there in the restaurant, and you can tell. Portion sizes are good, especially for the price.”
