Well, I still find it annoying that the toppings just sort of lay on top and fall off the pizza. I do have to admit, though, that a seven dollar lunch in Southend is worth a little inconvenience. The pizza is actually very good. It all starts as cheese and put your toppings on it then throw it in the oven to warm it up. I don't know anything about the mechanics of pizza, but maybe sprinkle a little more cheese on top of it so that the toppings stay where they're supposed to be. Pizza comes out super quick and there's plenty of seating. I like that the tables have the bar across the bottom so you have kind of a foot rest. Overall, I'm changing my three star review to a four star review because it is good pizza at an excellent price which is hard to find down here. Just make sure you keep that slice horizontal!

28 in pepperoni pizza
Rachel M.

We had a fun time with a group of about 12 adults and kids so we got 2 of the 28 in pizzas. This was a good amount with leftovers! Everyone was very nice when we came to pick up the pizza. They gave us plates and seasonings. They even came to help us open the door since it is hard to carry the large box out!

I popped over from Hi-Wire next door for slices to go and it was a great choice. Yes, the pizza slices are $5+ here but when you see that it's from a 28" pie and one slice covers TWO plates, one slice is a meal in itself. Meatballs for me, mushrooms for Mrs. K. and it did not take long for them to get topped and heated and boxed up. Cody, the dude who was slinging pizza this evening, was a great conversationalist while we waited for the heating up process. A real trip and a pleasant person! Great pie from Benny Ferrovia's! (If you're taking pizza back to Hi-Wire, look for the special spot for dropping off / stacking up pizza boxes so the bins don't fill up!)

We should have believed the reviews that said these slices were giant. We were feeling hungry so ordered SIX slices. For TWO people. Needless to say, we have leftovers on leftovers. My fave of the bunch was The Mac (veg special for July) followed by the pepperoni. I grew up on Papa John's garlic sauce, and I was so excited to see a garlic dipping sauce option on the menu. Nostalgic & delicious. Benny's is a solid place to grab a slice that will fill you up and hit the spot!

Cheese pizza14" individual slices

This was my first (and definitely last) time trying Benny Ferrovia's Pizza--and the experience from start to finish was a letdown. I ordered two 14" cheese pizzas online and arrived around 9:50 PM on 4/13/25. The man working didn't greet me--just said "what can I get you?" I told him I was picking up an online order, gave him my name, and he immediately acted like no order existed. I showed him my phone with my order confirmation, and he said something like "I don't know how that works" or "I've never seen that before." Instead of asking for help, he just stood there. After I spelled out my name (I-S-S-A), he finally found the pizzas literally sitting behind him on top of the oven the whole time. No apology, no effort, just a really off-putting interaction. And after all that? The pizza wasn't even worth it. The cheese pizza barely had cheese on it--tasted like mostly bread. I don't know if I came on a bad night, or if it's better during the day when it's less busy, but this was super disappointing. I wish I had the same experience as those 5-star reviews, but sadly I didn't. This whole experience felt like a waste of $10, and I'm not coming back.

Benny's! I've been wanting to try Benny's ever since I saw a post with a girl holding a pizza spice up to her face. I always thought "her head is probably small." Welp, mine is definitely not haha. The pizza slices are indeed humongous. One slice is enough for anyone. I don't care who you are. One slice is enough! It's a small, super casual pizza place with tvs. If we're in the area and craving pizza again, we will return.

The little pigs. All the pig in the middle. Pizza definitely undercooked.
Julie P.

We love Benny's - especially the Noda location - but this location has been more of a "miss" the past 2 times we've gone. The flavors are great, but the pizza isn't fully cooked and the toppings don't have time to bake into the cheese. I should say, it seems like this location does base cheese pizzas and then adds toppings when you order. Case in point, my three little pig slice last night. When I folded it, all the toppings rolled into the middle. Same with my kids pepperoni, when she picked it up, they just slid off. It would be fine, if they gave the pizza ample time to bake in the oven, so the cheese could melt and be the "glue", but it hasn't been the case recently. The girls working there were super nice and double cut my kid's pizza without issue (but I did ask the gentleman when he took my order to do that, so I'm glad I checked before leaving).

Jalapeños Cheddar pizza- AMAZING!?

Benny's always has friendly, fast service, even when they are slammed on a Saturday night! I love this place and will always come back when I have a pizza craving

Being a NY pizza snob and searching high and low for a good slice, Bennys knows exactly what they are doing! They offer pizza by the slice and pie. I do also like the variety of beverages they offer! If you're looking for a casual, fun, and laid-back environment, this is the place to go! Their original location in NoDa is great too! That is where I had my first Benny's experience, but that location is not ideal for me, so I was super pumped when they opened up in Southend!

1st time at this location. Solid pizza as always. No issues with service or food. Took a star away because the lobby needed cleaning

Nancy F.

The pizza slices here are HUGE! I tried the Versace slice which was a special slice of the day. It's a cheese slice topped with garlic pesto, onions, and green peppers. I believe the specials change daily. There's also a list of different beers to buy and outdoor seating is available. Friendly service. I will be back next time I'm in town.

Bobby bruschetta, pepperoni, and sausage!

Our second time at North Italia was also spectacular! We had a group of 8 in town and made a…read morereservation for 7pm on a Saturday evening. It was super busy, so I believe that a reservation is needed for the weekend, especially for larger groups. The vibe is a bit darker and moodier but with natural lighting- perfect for a date night but not limited to that. The espresso martinis, cocktails, beer, and mocktails were all delicious. They have amazing espresso martinis and aperol spritzes. The only dishes that I tried included the white truffle garlic bread, Sunday night lasagna, and the hot honey prosciutto pizza. Everything was delicious. A special shoutout to the Sunday night lasagna - WOW it was perfect. I'm usually not a huge lasagna person, but this changed that. I would 100% recommend this. Since we were celebrating my birthday with our parents, they were kind enough to give me a free dessert. I chose the salted caramel budino, and it was amazing. I would definitely recommend this as a dessert. Overall, we had a great experience! I would definitely come back.

Went to North Italia for a girls' dinner and overall, it was just okay…read more I ordered the branzino, only to be told they don't make it, despite it being listed on the menu. I was told they had snapper with the same fixings, so I went with that, but then was told they didn't have the snapper either. I asked if they could do salmon with the same preparation and, if not, I'd just order salmon on one of their salads. The server didn't mention that they couldn't do the salmon dish and came back with the salmon salad. It was fine, but I would have appreciated a heads-up that the original request wasn't possible. The salad itself had way too much dressing, which made it difficult to eat. A couple of my friends ordered a pasta dish that had so much horseradish that they couldn't really eat it. Overall, the food was fine and the service was fine, but there were enough misses that I wouldn't go out of my way to recommend North Italia. The vibe was nice, so there's that.

We sat outside, so I'd recommend checking what's happening around the restaurant on the day you go if you're hoping to sit outdoors. There was an outdoor workout class happening less than 20 feet away that was very loud and made it difficult to hear each other. Once the class finished, though, the patio was great! The ambiance inside also looked really cozy and inviting. For food, we started with the focaccia, which I definitely recommend. I ordered the orecchiette with sausage and broccoli, and it was so good. It was my friend's birthday, so we also ordered several desserts and honestly, I'd recommend all of them! Overall, a really great experience and a fun spot for a girls' dinner or special occasion.

I used to absolutely love this place. For a while, I honestly thought it might be the best Italian…read morerestaurant in Charlotte, and I recommended it to a lot of people. At one point, an Italian friend of mine told me that some of her friends had eaten here and really didn't like it. I actually argued with her about it because my experiences had always been so good. Unfortunately, after my last couple of visits, I understand what she meant. A lot of the pasta dishes I used to love are no longer on the menu. They used to have an amazing lobster tortellini dish, and there was another pasta I ordered several times that was excellent, although I can't remember the name anymore. The newer pasta dishes I've tried just haven't been nearly as good. The last two times we came here, we were disappointed. On my most recent visit, I ordered the truffle pasta, and it was honestly terrible. I sometimes make truffle pasta myself, so I'm familiar with that flavor. What I was served here was definitely not what I expected from a restaurant I used to think so highly of. After two disappointing visits in a row, we probably won't be coming back. I'm giving it three stars mainly because of how good this place used to be. The pizza is still okay, but just okay. There are plenty of other places where you can get better pizza. It's a shame, because this restaurant used to be much better.
