This place is the BEST quick grab and go! I love this pizza it gives NYC vibes and the crisp thin texture of the bread, cheese and sauce is all you need! After this one slice though, you'll wish you had just bought the whole pie! But be careful because it might not fit in your car depending on how big it is!
The crust is crispy, the slices and pies are massive and the sauce is good. They're friendly and have great customer service. It's casual and there's seating inside and outside. The only downside is they don't offer a lot of toppings in their pies.
Stopped in for a slice today with a friend. I ordered a pepperoni slice it was ok the pepperonis were not cooked enough for me. My friend ordered a slice of mushroom, sausage and pepperoni he said it was good.
Pizza slices were so great we had to go back and get a whole pie! Service was great, the restaurant was chill and clean.
These pizzas are HUUUUUGGEEE!! Pricey but worth it due to the size. The pizza could have been saucier. Slightly dry. My husband likes his pizza to have a little crunch but this pizza was soft. They deliver.
so I was in town for a thing at a swanky set up that is, generally speaking, a bit fancier than is my usual but not so much that it's gonna leave a lasting mark. true to form the cocktails were fabulous and since food would have detracted from the experience I took a hard pass there. I wasn't hungry but I'd stuck around a little too long and knew a Jekyll -v- Hyde change was in the offing so I got over to Benny's to stay ahead of it. not super busy late night mid week so no waiting to request one slice of veggie and one slice meat-za to go and what's with the 'yes we have no cookies' thing? took a few minutes to get my order het up and boxed but the overhead is enchanting and soothing so waiting isn't too horrible except for not having any pizza while waiting for pizza. is Benny's the best pizza around charlotte? not really, but it is totally the best pizza around 11:00pm midweek midtown. giant slab of well mannered virginian pizza using quality ingredients to cover the whole thing albeit not everything is everywhere to a uniform depth every time but these things are big enough so it's close enough!! took half an hour to get home and sample the midnight pizza. a few nibbles of each slice with a glass of OJ before nodding off to dreamland and visions of the best breakfast ever when the alarm coaxes me awake in a couple hours... Zzzz
Visited this pizza place with my brother after returning from vacation. Hands down the best pizza in Charlotte. Reminds me of the NY style pizza from my childhood. I was surprised by the size of the pizza but once it arrive the cost was worth it. Service was quick and the location, being in Noda, was quirky and cute. Benny's has been added to my go-to place when visitors are in town!
Pepperoni Pizza: 4/5 - Standard NY style slice. Nothing special, just pretty good pizza Buscemi Pizza: 3/5 - Wasn't as flavorful as I was hoping. (Big slices, long wait, Italian hot sauce is good) RATING SYSTEM 5 - Great (Definitely getting this again) 4 - Good (Would get it again) 3 - Ok (Might give it another shot) 2 - Not Good (Won't get this again) 1 - Bad (Telling people to avoid this)
Who doesn't love a giant slice of pizza??? Well, Benny's is the place for you, if you do! I personally find that if you're looking to get 3-4 slices, it's better to just get a whole giant pie. They're open late night until 3am, so it's also good to soak up all that alcohol from the night. It can truly be a savior!!!!! It's your typical no-frills pizza spot with plenty of seating too. Wait time isn't bad unless they are super busy.
Eclectic pizza shop with a super huge pizzas and large slices. There's plenty of parking in the shared parking lot. The staff are chill. Pizza is good. They serve alcohol and support local artists. Hope you have a great experience
Was craving some pizza late night after a comedy show and stumbled across this spot since it was still open. It looked like a local neighborhood bar/ kind of hole in the wall spot but they had a good variety of pizza options so it was good enough for me. I don't remember the name of the pizza I got (probably a beef or steak) and my friend got pepperoni and it honestly wasn't bad at all. I appreciate that they were open late and that's just what we needed.
I was so excited to try this place because I love pizza and Benny Pennello's didn't disappoint! I had the mushroom and garlic pizza! The huge slice of pizza came out fresh and hot! The crust was thin and buttery. It was crispy without being hard. The mushrooms were seasoned to perfection with garlic and other seasonings. I would get extra cheese next time that I pay Benny's a visit as I love cheese and love to have the nice "cheese pull". They were busy which in turn made our wait longer. It was worth it! The have some seating inside and more space in the back of the restaurant. I would highly recommend this pizza place!
We arrived here around 9pm. Luckily we were able to get a parking spot in the lot they share. We waited in and were able to walk up and order rather quickly since there was only one couple in front of us. Although it was mostly full, ordering and the actual wait time wasn't bad. Now, I love pizza. And large, oversized New York style pizza is my favorite. I ordered a pepperoni with garlic mushrooms on top. Never had I had garlic mushrooms on pizza but never will I order another pizza without them. They were the star of that pizza. I devoured this slice so quick, I was already plotting my next trip back.

8/23/25, Saturday lunch with Lesley. First visit. Corner unit, kind of industrial look nothing fancy. Pizza was great! Mainly selling by the slice, giant slice by the way. Quality ingredients and a fantastic crispy crust. Couldn't finish the 2nd slice to give you an idea of size. Overall 4 , limited ingredients and ok service/ friendliness. read more

Just a slice was enough to fill me up. Restaurant is very casual and it's a great price for what you're getting. It's a good spot for when you're craving pizza. read more
Parking is difficult but definitely worth it. This gem of humongous pizza slices is open till 2 AM or till pizza runs out. The variety of beers and sodas is also amazing. Great place to hang out after barhopping. The pizza is always hot and fresh. Friendly staff always. read more

We’re sorry to hear you didn’t enjoy your visit. Our New York style…
I had heard Benny's pizza was decent so I recommended we try it when a coworker was looking to get some pizza nearby. Holy Moly ! This pizza was HUGE ! She got a pepperoni and it was $44. (You can also buy by the slice at $6.50) We weren't really impressed with the pizza's flavor. It was fairly greasy (and visited me later).... and the crust was not crispy. We both added some hot sauce to help with the flavor. I don't think I would get it again. But you know what they say about pizza... even when it's bad, it's still pretty good. read more
I've had a really hard time finding any pizza in North Carolina that I actually get excited about. Well, we ordered Benny Pennello's recently, and I already want it again! We got the whole pie just for the two of us, and it was so big that it lasted us 3 days. The box is so big that my partner held it up, and was almost entirely hidden by it! We got the kickin chicken, which was delicious! It was even delicious each time we heated it back up for leftovers. They told us it would be about 45 minutes for our pizza, but they got it to us sooner. We sat and had a beer while waiting. It's a cool atmosphere with some neat artwork on the walls. The best part is that the amount of pizza you get for the price is amazing. There are normal sized pies in Charlotte that are priced near the same, and this is probably twice the size. You should definitely give this place a try! read more

First off they get 5 stars for staying open until 3am, let's start there! My fiancée and I never go out, like ever. This night we decided to hangout with coworkers. We had a good time and ended up here at Benny's. Their pizza slices are huge but they're cheap! I think we paid like $2 a slice. If I'm not mistaken, after a certain hour they only serve cheese or pepperoni slices. They have them coming out so fast that the long line dies down very quickly! A hidden gem for sure. read more
Amazing 28" pizzas! It's definitely a sight worth seeing. This is a great casual joint, perfect for a pizza fix, they have some fun options, build your own, and weekly specials. We had mostly vegetarians in our group so we got the special garlic mushroom and the veggie. Plus a couple of cheese slices for the kiddos. The garlic mushroom was my favorite, light, great thin crust, nice sauce flavor. The veggie was good too, although a little heavy on broccoli! I can see why they have so many reviews, great location too right next to a heist brewery. This place was killing it on a Sunday evening. You really do wanna try this pizza . Glad we finished the pizzas as that box was not fitting in my car ! read more

Love going to Benny pennello's when in town biggest slice of pizza and it tastes so good! The people that work here are generally really friendly and nice. They have a good local and regional beer selection and old time style sodas, like orange cream sickle, root beer, and all the regular stuff too! If you order a whole pizza which we always do you can customize it and get different toppings and have them slice it in either 8 or 16 slices. read more

Late night one evening my wife and I wanted a snack so we decided to stop Benny's in Noda. When we walked in I immediately got the dive bar feel and thought to myself that I know this pizza is going to be good. I ordered the buffalo chicken pizza and my wife ordered the pepperoni and mushroom pizza and it didn't take long for our food to come out. The staff was extremely nice and the slices were HUGE! One slice will definitely curb your appetite and two is just being greedy LOL! it's time like this when I would love to have this place closer to where I live. I definitely recommend this place. read more

Giant slice, giant flavor! Benny's offers a massive slice (and pie) and while it's more expensive than a single slice anywhere else, it's a full meal. All you need is 1! They're known for being one of few places that stay open late (close at 3am Fri-Sat, 2am Thurs, midnight Sun-Wed). Definitely tailors to a late night partygoers food need (or "1 more beer" because they sell beer), but you can enjoy it any day of the week from 11am forward! Service is quick, but I imagine once the bars close it gains a line. The interior is typical no frills pizza place. They also have a South End location (Benny Ferrovia's) with the same hours and same pizza! read more

Tried the newly opened pizza place. Smells great when you enter. Ordered a slice of pepperoni and a water. Price is higher than most places around for the same. Slice was large. Tasted of butter, but not bad. Price for a full pie seems extremely high. I tried it and would eat there again if someone else was paying. Choice between a burger or pizza, side by side. Ok but I will stick to my usual pizza joint. Place was clean and it was easy to converse inside. Exterior tables are also available. read more

I wanted just slice and made the 20 minute drive to get one from here! It was worth every minute! read more
I have passed Benny's a number of times but have never stopped in. I met up with a friend and they suggested this place. I am always looking to find new places to get my grub on and Benny's didn't disappoint. The slices here are HUGE!!! I ordered two different styles (Garlic Mushroom and Three Little Pigs. Both were solid choices and I really enjoyed them. I can put down some pizza and I was pretty full after I finished these slices. My only complaint is that the drinks are in bottles. It probably makes sense from a business standpoint. Everything worked out well and would repeat when I am in the area. read more

Empty out your try k or bring an SUV if you want to bring home their large Pizza pie home. It's huge! I love the crunch it hax every bite. There is something different about this pizza but it's oh so good with a beer or a glass of wine. Located in Noda it's a great location to shop, eat, hang, then repeat. Enjoy read more

Got a big'un for my boyfriend's birthday celebration. Everyone loved it. I'm not a pizza person, but hear it was great and loved the coffee table conversation piece. One friend said "you should have gotten only one pizza." She almost hit the floor when I told her it is just one pizza. Thank you for making my guy's BIG night even bigger! read more
