    My husband and I visited Chapel Hill over Father's Day weekend. This is the best pizza I've had!!!

    I've had very good experiences with Brenz Pizza. The food was hot, tasty, and prepared to the specs that I requested. They will get my business again. Great for a group order also as I have done this for work several times. This time I ordered a chef salad and sweet heat wings. Both very good. Had pizzas in the past which were just as good.

    I found this pizza spot through a Yelp search. I became excited to try this place out after looking over the menu. I was intrigued by the Spinach Artichoke pizza. So, I talked a friend into joining me in a visit this place. Kai was very friendly when answering my questions about menu options. She has a great personality and is knowledgeable about the menu. We ordered the Caesar salad and the Spinach Artichoke pizza. Both items were flavorful and full of ingredients. The location offers some seating options for customers who wish to eat on-site. The decor is minimal, but the space is clean. This a great pizza spot. I'm positive that Leonardo, Michelangelo, Raphael and Donatello would approve.

    Whew Chile! I was in town for business and decided to check this place out. I was skeptical going in, but I should know to trust the reviews of my fellow Yelpers. I ordered the rustic pizza and side Caesar salad. Everything. Was. On. Point! The salad has bacon in it (an issue for some but not I) and the cheese and baby croutons with the dressing were delicious. The pizza was fantastic, with the various root veggies, sauce, and sausage. Am 8 inch was enough for me, and I was full afterwards. The inside is like a typical pizza place with bar stools and regular seating. The only reason I am giving it 4 stars is because they weirdly have no ice machine!

    The only times I have ordered from Brenz were on nights when they have a special deal with our apartment complex for half off which happened around once or twice a year and we definitely took advantage of it! It is a bit pricey without the deal, so i usually dont order it. But on deal nights my roommates and I would order personal pizzas and wings for ourselves to last us the whole week haha. They can get pretty busy during those nights but we just order online and then go pick it up ourselves. There's usually still a bit of a wait when we get there but not awful. The wings here are HUGE and I get the hot honey sauce every time. My spice tolerance is pretty low but the sauce is not very spicy so they are perfect for me! I think I've tried every one of their award winning pizzas (and they have a lot which is impressive in itself!) but my personal favorite is still the heritage honey (i really love honey lol)!

    Top 3 best gluten free pizza we have ever had! My husband & I have celiac so we've tried A LOT of places and this one was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. I got the buffalo chicken with mushrooms, which wasn't too spicy. My husband got rustic. They cooked the crust perfectly & didn't skimp out on the toppings. Their salads are also packed with delicious toppings too! Everything tasted & appeared fresh. The employees working were helpful & extremely sweet. Very clean and welcoming environment. We are from out of town but we will 100% be back.

    Really phenomenal pizza. This place has some pretty thick slices, but I wouldn't say that they are doughy at all. Despite the width, they are easy to bite through and don't leave you feeling like it was all bread. The toppings and sauce were both really well done and something that I really enjoyed were the sweet accents to the pizza. Both slices that I ordered weren't too salty, and the onions and honey drizzle worked really well to create a well rounded pizza. Also when I went, there was only one lady working, but despite being by herself, she was able to handle our order as well as all other orders well. Highly suggest you check this place out.

    Pretty good pizza. Doughy and crispy at the same time. Crust is nice and good amount of cheese. Got pineapple and pepperoni with spicy sauce (wasn't spicy). Wish they would've put more pepperoni, didn't have much. Personal size was pretty small so would order a bigger one next time.

    I've been here once and it was sooo good, kinda expensive but it's worth spending the money. Service was quick and the vibe inside is like really any other pizza place but I would highly recommend. I forgot to take a picture of the pizza but the boxes and pretty big and we also got the breadsticks and they were as well!

    What is the artichoke sauce like? What all is in it?

    It is very tasty. Its base is our creamy ranch dressing with artichoke, garlic, and white pepper. Those are the key ingredients. The Spinach Artichoke pizza it comes on is awesome. Olive oil (no red sauce), cheese, chicken, artichoke hearts,… Read more

    This is a great little bistro/wine bar/neighborhood spot. It's definitely upscale in feel, but…read morestill reasonably priced. Most of the seating is on a second-floor covered terrace, though there are tables inside as well. It has interesting city views of the University Hill area over South Square towards the "hypodermic building." There are parking options on all sides. The wine list is nice, but I like trying their specialty cocktails. These tend to have interesting additions such as tea-infused syrups and other creative ingredients. I've always had great sandwiches here at lunchtime, particularly the Santorini (a take on a gyro) and the Yacht Club, which is similar to a club sandwich but brightened up and made scrumptious by apricot jam. Their side of Caesar salad is always nice and crisp, with just the right amount of dressing and flavorful cheese shavings. The staff is engaged and attentive without going overboard. There's really no better lunch experience in the area on a nice warm day when you can just hang out and relax with a varied, delightful menu.

We sat outside since the weather was nice - they have comfy lounge chairs and an aesthetic setup with string lights which really add to the ambiance. We ordered a couple of sandwiches - mine came with chicken, bacon, and plenty of cheese. The food was tasty but average. The service was a bit slow and we unfortunately ended up having to go inside the restaurant to request the check to get to our next destination in time - however, staff were super friendly. Overall, the vibes outside were amazing and I would consider returning for drinks on a warm evening.

There is a shared parking lot in front of the business. Once inside, there are several tables & the counter to place your order. I came in knowing what I wanted but was then disappointed when I was told that the funnel cake flavor (s'mores) that I wanted had been discontinued. I was next told that my second choice (snickers) was also not available anymore. The clerk was friendly & tried to offer a suggestions based upon the cake that I wanted. I was kind of frustrated that the cakes that I wanted were still listed on their website the day I went to the business. I settled for the Cookie Monster cheesecake funnel cake. It was ok with all of the flavor combinations all together. I preferred some of the toppings separately or more than others. The funnel cake and cheesecake were good. The cake was served warm. The ice cream was ok. I appreciated the clerk asking if I wanted the ice cream on the side since I placed my order to go. The cake was also topped with Oreos, powered sugar & chocolate sauce. There was a little bit of an expected wait since there were pre-orders & other people got in front of me while I was deciding on another option. And the clerk was initially out front by herself for a short period. Besides a variety of funnel cakes, the business also sells drinks.

I have to admit that I can't visit as often as I like because I'm diabetic but what I have had, has been great! I love the caramel cheesecake, the red velvet cheesecake, and strawberry cheesecake. I feel the cost is a little on the high side, HOWEVER, you get what you pay for! An excellent melt in your mouth cheesecake without an allergic reaction and anaphylaxis! Worth every penny and I have spent quite a lot pennies at this place. When you get a cheesecake, be forewarned that it more than likely is frozen- it has to be since there are no preservatives!! I like to get home and cut it into 4ths and put back into the freezer to freeze them to keeep them from getting to soft and mushy since I only eat a 1/4 at a time. Plus it's easier to cut them when they are frozen. My only wish is that they had a sugar free version.... But then again, maybe it's a blessing in disguise! I would be there every week and my pocketbook would be tapped out! They do also have vegan cheesecakes, and I tried two- but I honestly wasn't very fond of them. I think they had a good flavor, but it was a texture issue for me and a personal preference. So don't hold that against them! I'm sure if you're vegan, you would appreciate them. Another note: they have odd hours in my opinion. The only time I can go get my cheesecake fix is when I'm on this side of Durham- (my job is driving everywhere in the RTP and further, and when I don't end my day on this side of Durham, I don't make the special trip.
