Had the margharita pizza:
Pros: really good pizza crust, really good sauce and cheese. Very good service.
Cons: no fresh basil on the pizza.
Atmosphere: cute place with nice tables, some background music would be a nice touch.

Great pizza, the service is great. The only negative: if you're ordering for pickup, call the order in the. The app and website needs serious improvement.

My first time ordering from here. I ordered via phone. I spoke with Kieth. He was extremely pleasant, professional, and VERY patient with me. I didn't have a menu and he recited so many items and styles of pizza. I kept forgetting everything he said and I started making up pizzas that don't even exist lol. But he got me straight and didn't laugh at me lol. So my order experience was perfect. I then arrived early to pick up my order in case I got lost. Very first thing I noticed when I parked was their perfectly edged lawn and clean street. That matters to me. I go inside and noticed an extremely clean store. I always check for bugs, flies and roaches. That matters to me too lol. I also noticed 3 young men keeping busy and working hard. Shout out to them because there's so many lazy young men these days. I paid for pizza and tipped, which I normally don't do for a pickup order, and waited outside until it was done. One of the young men brought the entire order to me. Thanks for that because I probably would have dropped it trying to open door. Now on to my order. 1 large pepperoni, 1 small Alla Vodka, 1 canzone, 2 cannabis. I get home and try a bite of everything except the cannolis. Pepperoni pizza had slightly too much Thyme (i believe) It stole the taste of the pepperoni. But I loved the fresh dough taste. Also tasted like it was cooked on hot stone. So that was really nice too. I'd like to try it again with less seasoning. But I give it a 7 out of 10 for the Hampton Roads area. The Calzone had a little too much Oregano (i believe is what i tasted). But it was cooked perfect and again I love the fresh dough taste. Now on to the Alla Vodka.. OMG it was delicious. (You must like mushrooms) The ingredients was PERFECTLY blended and cooked. I love my red sauce Pizzas. But good gawd this was on point. Only thing I would do different is roll a smaller end crust so it can hold more of that fabulous flavor! This place gets 5 stars for MANY reasons. I will come back when I can afford it lol. FYI, I'm a pretty picky eater. Sorry if I offended you all with the too much seasoning. But I already love you guys. Thanks for being part of this community. š

Pizza was fresh made with real and fresh ingredients. One of the best tasting pizzas Iāve had in a long time. The food was made fresh yet was on the table very quickly. 10/10 will return.

Their Buffalo chicken pizza is so good that it prevents me from trying the rest of the menu. I always go back to it.

I wonāt be back. It isnāt because of the food. Their credit machines malfunctioned. I was trying to figure out how to make my card work. I was trying to add it to Apple Pay. The blond guy with blue eyes was at the register and proceeded to say. āWell maāam, I have a PAYING customer here, so Iām going to get his order.ā Mind you, I didnāt object to him taking someone else. So I walked outside to add the card to Apple Pay. Took a few seconds. When I walked back in, I proceeded to tell them I thought I had it figured out and if they took Apple Pay, I could go ahead and get the order. I did go ahead and confront the dude for his snooty rudeness and for something that was likely an issue with their system as my phone took the card first try. Instead of him apologizing, he proceeded to ARGUE with me and say he didnāt say anything offensive. I told him had the tables have been turned, he would have been offended too. Still no apology. Not even anything neutral. So I told him to cancel the order and then went to another establishment where my card worked first time and the food was just as good. I wonāt be back to the Box because even though I support small businesses and the food is good, someone who cannot take feedback and is rude to someone who is obviously TRYING to pay you is fully unacceptable.
We have ordered here three times. Good every time. Ordered pizza, calzones, salads, cannoliā¦all really good. Fast service (they have to prepare and BAKE the pizza), reasonably priced. They arenāt overly busy and the food is good and fresh. Each time about 20ish minutes from order to table. The cannoli are delicious!

My opinion- Best pizza in Portsmouth at a good price! All of the staff members were kind and took great care of my family while we were there.
Great experience picking up from The Box! Delicious pizza. There were a lot of orders that night but the guy making the pizza did a great job and got my pizza out quickly, was super professional and most importantly made a top notch NY pizza! Great pizza and service and will definitely be back. Grew up in NY and this is most authentic NY pizza in the area!

I have lived in Hampton Roads for 11 years. This is the best pizza I have ever had in this area. A nice thinner crust with a crisp bottom. Savory sauce that isn't sweet or artificial tasting. Quality toppings. I got the Italian pizza and added pepperoni. Each topping had its own delicious flavor, and complimented each other. It is a little pricey, but it's worth it for the quality.
