This place is delicious!!! We called to do delivery, we thought we may be out of the range but surprisingly we weren’t. The lady that answered the phone was very helpful and made ordering easy! We will definitely be getting food from them. We are about 15-20 minutes from their location and the pizza was still hot when we got it and could smell it while talking to the delivery driver! We always get pizza on Halloween and will be placing an order from here this year! Even our three year old loves it!! We got 2 garlic knot pizzas and one of their Quattro Gusti pizzas. I believe we have found our new pizza place. Who ever made these pizzas deserves a raise.

Traveling through Statesville NC and this Pizza restaurant was highly recommended by the Best Western Hotel. The hand tossed pizza is delicious and exceeded my expectations. Service was quick and staff pleasant! A great choice if looking for a pie with great sauce and crust!

I don't really sit inside so the atmosphere is a 4/5 lmao the food is fantastic, they try new things and WILL take special requests (I assume case by case basis). Highly recommend spicy spaghetti and meatballs.

We wanted to try this place so we went for dinner. We sat down and were completely ignored by the young man behind the counter. He was very busy with to go orders but after 10 minutes of no one acknowledging our presence we got up and left. Will not be returning

Oh, Mama!! Where have you been all my life?! Pizza is out of this world. The sauce is literally but delicious. Their wings are even better. I suggest the Sweet Mama wings. They have a great menu and I just need to figure out how to try everything. The customer service is always friendly! You should go!! Now! Right now! 🍕

This pizza is HANDS DOWN the best around. We usually pick up a pie and head to the park nearby and enjoy the breeze while eating the cheese. A must try if you're in the area.

If you’re looking for authentic New York–style pizza without leaving North Carolina, Mama’s Pizza Express is hands-down the place to go. Their hand-tossed crust is the real deal—thin, crisp on the bottom, yet chewy in all the right ways. One of their standout creations is the garlic knot pizza, where the knots are baked right into the crust—genius and absolutely delicious.
Beyond the pizza, their pasta dishes are incredible. The stuffed shells are packed with creamy ricotta blended with fresh herbs, then smothered in rich tomato sauce and perfectly melted mozzarella. It tastes homemade, with layers of flavor you don’t usually find in a small-town pizzeria.
The staff is friendly, the service is quick, and the portions are generous for the price. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, this is a hidden gem that rivals even the best spots in New York. Statesville is lucky to have Mama’s Pizza Express!
Food is amazing, prices are fair, and the delivery drivers are always world class. 10/10!

Food is excellent. Been several times. Never been disappointed. A little expensive but very worth it. Portions are always generous.
