This pizza has been the closest we have found to a New York/New England style, family pizza. Very good crust. Prices are slightly higher than the chains but worth it. read more

Our family has been long-time customers, and have always enjoyed the pizza here. Thin crust, plenty of stringy cheese, fresh ingredients. We like a few others in the area (Due Amici, especially), but this place is closer, so we eat there more often. We ordered our usual, a large extra cheese and a large pepperoni pizza, got it home, and as soon as we opened it, we knew it was different. Upon tasting it, we could definitely tell something was off...the cheese, which is usually stringy, was scarcely on and tasted plastic-y. The crust was thicker than usual and too doughy. It certainly wasn't up to their usual standard. I called to see what had changed...maybe their recipe was different or their cheese vendor? The phone call girl was nice enough and apologetic. She even offered me a free pizza for another time, until she asked my order and I told her I had two pizzas...she put me on hold and talked to her manager. I wasn't looking for a free pizza, I was looking for someone to apologize for our subpar experience and possibly offer me an explanation because it wasn't normal. The manager gets on the phone like a grenade about to go off. She is completely rude, defensive, telling me how their pizza is so wonderful and nothing is wrong with my pizza BEFORE I EVEN WAS ABLE TO SHARE MY THOUGHTS. She was completely horrible on the phone to me and when I asked to speak to the owner, she told me he was busy, pretended to take my name and number and told me he'd call me. Of course, he never called. My family will be buying our Friday night pizzas from ANY other place than this from now on. Bad pizza I can handle. Bad customer service, not so much. read more

We have ordered from DiMaggios for years and have consistently had amazing food each time. Their service is great and their employees are always so kind! I adore the delivery drivers who are always happy and grateful! It's a bit pricier than your chain pizza places, but I would much rather support small, locally owned businesses any day! They work hard and must value their employees and obviously only hire great ones! read more

DiMaggio's is our go to pizza place. We get take out from them at least two times a month. It's the closest thing to CT and NY pizza in the area. We have tried Johnny Brusco's, Hawthorne's, Rosario's, Due Amici's and several others in the area. DiMaggio's is by far the best and most consistent. Their grandma pie is much better than Rosario's. It is a little over priced, but all specialty pizza are. The garlic, basil and crushed tomatoes combine for a perfect bite! The red sauce for calzones and strombolis is perfectly balanced. I love to dip my pizza into it. My only real complaint about the place is that they use CANNED (sigh) mushrooms. WHY WHY WHY?!?!? Cost I'm sure, but it's sacrilegious to eat canned mushrooms on a pizza. I wish Yelp allowed half stars as I think they are better than just a four star rating. read more

Very solid local Ny style pizza joint. Never had a bad meal here and have been here at least 20 times. Casual easy atmosphere , friendly staff. Nice lunch specials. read more

Not a bad spot if you're just looking to satisfy a crave fora slice. In other words it's not the best slice I've eaten but it's not even close to being the worst. Oh; almost forgot...They don't sell calamari. I was surprised being that the owners are from Brooklyn read more

This is the place for the BEST WINGS!! I just moved to Colorado and can't find anywhere in comparison here to DiMaggio's wings and ranch!!

Love this place! Great pizza, excellent size and rarely disappoints. It is more expensive than the chain pizza places but the taste of their pizza makes it more than worth it. I highly recommend them! read more

We've ordered takeout from here on multiple occasions. Each time the pizza has been delicious. They offer curbside pickup too. Definitely recommend. read more

This is one of my favorite local pizza places. DiMaggio's large cheese pizza is awesome. They also make an awesome baked ziti. Friendly staff. read more

Half the people handling food in there didn't have masks on their faces. Got 80% wings 20% drums and the wings sucked.

The quantity is very comparable to the price! Super delicious and no grease in the pizza!

Never been inside, review for take out. Former NYer and this is the closest to NY pizza around! Also excellent garlic knots, meatballs, and chicken parm. Lovely side salads. Friendly over the phone and speedy delivery. Home run! read more

Great! One of our go to restaurants! What seems like a family run business, staff is very friendly, helpful and hard working. I've tried most stuff on the menu and have been very happy. Consistent and quality food! I feel very fortunate to have a neighborhood pick up or delivery place like this. Please support this small business we need them! read more

Must try!!!!!!! By far the best pizza in the area! It's become a weekend staple for us. Just wished they delivered to our neighborhood

Can't say enough good things about the pizza here. Have been coming here for years and never been disappointed in the product

Nope. Stopped in on my way home last night to pick up some garlic knots. Nothing crazy, first time trying it. They were tough and dry...complete opposite of what garlic knots should be. Probably won't be back to try the pizza...oh well. read more

Second time ordering in a week! So yummy. Best wings. Quick delivery. We will be ordering again for sue.

Great pizza! One of the best I've ever had (outside of Bleecker street pizza in NYC or Home Slice in Austin). Great staff, always friendly, cozy atmosphere, worth your time to explore. read more

Got tired of prosciuttos pizza in Cornelius, quality has gone way down but tried DiMaggio's and dang hit the jackpot great food, great people cant say enough have to drive a little bit because i am to far for delivery but totally worth it !!! read more

I've had mixed results here...the pizza is pretty good, though overpriced (if you are ordering an entire pizza, not a lunch two slice special). However, I had quite possibly one of the worst meals I've ever had in a restaurant last Friday. I ordered the Baked Ziti with meat sauce and I am not exaggerating when I say that the plate arrived at our table and the ziti was literally floating in grease. Orange grease was completely surrounding the entire perimeter of the plate. I took two napkins and soaked up enough grease to completely cover the napkins. I laid them on the table next to my barely touched food, assuming the waitress would notice, ask me how it was, etc. However, she didn't bat en eye. Even when she asked if I wanted a box and I chuckled and said "no" emphatically she didn't even question anything. The serving size was huge and I probably had about 8 bites yet no question at all. All I could taste was a combination of grease and mozzerella cheese (which when I pushed the huge globs of cheese with my fork more grease oozed up ). It was the least appetizing thing I have ever seen. I am not one to complain in restaurants, mostly because I figure they'll just assume that I'm trying to get something for free. So I didn't say anything, but immediately regretted it. Hopefully the chef saw the full plate and the grease covered napkins and got the hint. Another minor complaint about the service--it was my 9 year old son and I eating and when we sat down she immediately brought over two soft drink plastic cups without even asking what we wanted to drink. I know a lot of people have no problem giving their kids soda, but we don't often (especially at 7pm) and I couldn't believe that she would just make the assumption without asking. Bottom line is, just ask what we want to drink. read more

Very good and very consistent. More expensive than the chain pizza stores but worth it. We normally just get pizza (take-out) but have tried various sandwiches, pastas, salads and appetizers. I can't think of a thing we've been disappointed with except for a few burnt garlic knots once. They are our go-to restaurant when I don't feel like cooking but still want to eat at home, which is usually once a week. read more

Ravioli, lasagne, meatball, garlic knots....all very good. Dining area needs an A/C upgrade. Friendly crew. Pleasant late lunch spot.

This was my first time dining here since this establishment changed owners and received a new name. The food here is quite good. My family and I will certainly be back. read more

Stopped in DiMaggio's for a pizza. First time. The waitress was fast, efficient and helpful. We ordered the "Special" and an appetizer of garlic cheese bread. The garlic cheese bread came out quickly with a nice dish of warm marinara. Although we decided it was not smart to order this particular appetizer with a large pie coming, it was in every way delicious and we recommend it. The pie was great... loaded with goodies and well baked. We took a few slices home for lunch the next day. I think you will enjoy this one... A definite step above most chain pizza and a fresh lively atmosphere with flat screens on every wall for the sports fans. read more

Completely rude employees and owner. Very inconsistent food/ingredients and they will screw up your order frequently. They screw up, they WILL NOT refund your money. Never seen this before EVER! Sometimes closer to the house isn't always better! read more

Great pizza and I love their Calzones! Love the neighborhood feel and love that it's not some chain store. Little pricey and not a lot of specials but it's good quality Italian food. Oh yeah, my little girl loves the lasagna read more

The pizza is yummy. The crust is soft and chewy on the inside with just the right amount of crunch on the outside. Even just the plain cheese pizza is tasty. Not too greasy and doesn't flop around when you pick it up. The people in the shop are super friendly and personable. read more

The pizza is always good, but the dinner we ate here tonight was great. I had the chicken parm and my wife had the eggplant parm. The salads were really fresh with a nice variety of veg. The parms were covered with plenty of sauce and cheese. The sauce was great. They each came with a couple of fresh garlic knots. The penne pasta was cooked just right. We'll definitely be back for dinner again. read more

Very much the same situation as Nicole B. Long time customer, 3 years minimum. Whenever I felt like a Stromboli, Dimaggio's is the first thing that came to mind. Until tonight. Sequence of events, with timestamps. 6:41 - Wife starts ordering 6:43 - Wife gets off phone and says "they said 45 minutes" which we are expecting because strombolis take a while 7:13 - food arrives - 15+ minutes earlier than they said it would. i, not thinking anything was awry, cut it in half just like i do every time, took a giant bite expecting to have that mouthwatering goodness send me to "that" place, but instead was brought back to cold, hard reality by the fact that i now had a 1/4 inch layer of DOUGH in my mouth. upon closer investigation i noticed that the crust was barely crispy on the outside. 7:20 - mildly disgusted i called in to complain and see if they maybe had a new cook or something. I explain what had happened, the girl said she had to get the manager and i get hung up on. 7:26 - call back more than a little irritated. when the manager gets on the phone she tells me "my employee relayed what you said but i want to hear it from you" at which point i, once again, explain, to which she replied "what do you want me to do about it? this is the first complaint we've had about our strombolis in i dont even know how long, everyone loves them" in this "hurry up and get off my phone" tone. I said i didnt really want anything but the she offered to have it remade and sent out or store credit. i kind of gave up at that point and said i would take a credit on my next order. at which point she did in fact get me off the phone. 7:35 - feeling rather discounted and as though the impression was that i just wanted free food, i took my nasty little stromboli into the restaurant to show her that it was in fact a nasty little stromboli. i explained what i had experienced and asked for the contact info for corporate or the owner to which she said "i am one of the owners". The conversation took a sharp downhill turn at that point. one of the things that really stuck out in my mind was a comment she made "There are more important things in life than a slightly undercooked stromboli" which, while very true, in and of itself verified my feeling of being discounted as "slightly" was not even close to accurate, nor was i implying that my stromboli being passed over a candle and tossed in a box was as important as a cure for cancer or even a slightly better mousetrap. i simply wanted to be taken seriously and not treated like i was trying to steal something or just flat out lying. i got all of those impressions. this is the first time ive ever reviewed anything like this, it takes a special... something... to make me feel the need to share my experience, call me jaded. im used to bad service, but that owner/manager shouldn't even own/manage a paper route in my opinion. I see a lot of people talking about how great the service is. to those folks i have to ask, was there ever anything wrong with your food? was there ever something that actually required "service"? in my experience, the service is great, as long as you dont have a problem. and if you do have a problem, well, youll just have to get over feeling like youve been accused of stealing. read more

I have been getting pizza from here for the better part of two years and love it. The staff is fantastic and all know me by name. The pizza is great, and as a native Long Islander, I think this is the best in the Charlotte area. The crust is crispy and the sauce and cheese are great. If you are looking for a good New York "pie", swing by and grab one, or hop in for lunch and get the two slice deal, can't beat it. read more

When we moved to the area, 11/2018, we were looking for a pizza place and found a gem! The authenticity of NY style pizza was pretty close. You just can't reach the same dough level with the water we have here in NC. But they did a great job. The impressive thing with this family run business is the quality of their other offerings. The lasagna, stromboli, pasta dishes are all incredible and to top it off the prices are very reasonable. This has turned into our favorite family restaurant! Like I mentioned above, this is a family restaurant and not just for the customers. The kids of the owners work there as well, so that is saying something about the values that are being instilled by the parents. Great job! read more

I only even gave 1 star because you need to give at least 1 star. The owner was rude and hung up on me after I called to complain that it was two hours after we ordered delivery on a Saturday night and he said -well the girl who took your order said you said you were coming to pick it up. I never said that -we have a two-year-old and we were in our pajamas for the night Needless to say I called back later on after ordering delivery elsewhere, because he said he was charging my credit card regardless because he would reheat my pizza but not make a new one and I needed to pick up. I called him a douchebag (lol) he was very rude back and told me he did not care if my family and I ever ordered from him again -he said he was going to charge my credit card and it was on my end that this was the mistake - no it was the girl who answered your phone who made the mistake ---excuse me douche bag isn't the customer always right???Needless to say I will never order from them again. Plus they're closed half the time -they close early -what the hell is up with a pizzeria that closes at 9 o'clock on Saturday night -closed Monday's etc! I'm from Long Island, New York I -know good pizza and there are so many other places in Lake Norman that are better than this crappy place. I ordered from them once a week, as well as big Italian family as well and I told the owner that and he said I don't care. I just got off the phone with my credit card company and told them to cancel payment for this piece of crap place! Believe me the owner is a true douche bag! They suck! read more

My family and I live close by and order to go occasionally because it is close and easy. The pizza and wings are good. At my most recent visit we ordered the special which was 2 large 1 topping pizzas for $23.99. So I requested we get one with sausage and one half and half (mushrooms on 1/2 and pepperoni on 1/2) and the person on the phone said that was fine same price. When I picked it up they charged me an additional $2 for toppings after discussing this with the attendant they said that is the way it rings up in the system. Offered to give me a dollar back. After more conversation and trying to explain it should be $2 (and technically the tax on the $2) they said no it would only be one dollar. They did agree you could do 1/2 and 1/2 so not sure why it would only be $1. Should not be the customers fault for a system that can't ring the food up the correct way or for staff who can't help when the special rings up wrong. So looks like we will not be going back. Gave it 3 stars because food is good but did not grade higher due to some inconsistencies with service in restaurant and on to go orders. Review is more based on several visits not just the last. read more

The food was good, but both times we've picked up take out they have forgotten food in our order. The first time they forgot to give us a whole meal. The second time was an order of french fries. French Fries aren't usually a big deal but it is to a six year old. Next time, we'll check ALL the food before leaving and getting home to realize we don't have all of our food. read more

When we moved here a year ago we asked a transplanted New Yorker to give us names of the best pizza around here, she gave us 3 names and one happened to be DiMaggio's. We tried it for our first time back in August 2014. We enjoyed it, It has been a long time since we had decent pizza after living in Arizona for 19 years! Up until DiMaggios closed on Monday Nights I was having food delivered every Monday so my son had dinner because I was not home to cook for him. It was the perfect solution to making sure my son had a meal on Monday nights. The food always arrived hot and according to my son it was delicious. The delivery driver always arrived in the time they promised. The Pizza is good I have yet to have a bad Pizza Pie. One time my order had an error and I spoke with the manager. He fixed the problem, and had the new order delivered immediately. I happen to check my Credit Card Charges religiously and a few days later I noticed that he removed the charge completely so my order was absolutely free. I called him once I noticed that thank him because he did not have to do that but that is what customer service is all about. read more

Wow great pizza just moved down from ny, white pizza is awsome

Awesome Place! Great NY style Pizza and excellent service.

50/50. This place is so convenient to my house, we often get take out. Food is inconsistent, sometimes its great, sometimes awful. They seem to buy cheap wings, sometimes deformed, and yes, I have had feathers on my wings before. Beer selection is so bad, definitely not my top pick for dining in. Our last experience with management has permanently deterred me from ever going back. Johnny Brusco's is 5 minutes further drive, and consistently great! read more

My name is Kenzie poplin and I was there on the night (Michael K) was and I overheard his conversation with the staff and management. I understand that he was mad about his Stromboli but to completely blow things out of proportion the way he did was completely unnecessary. When he came in he threw the bag the Stromboli was in on the counter and demanded a manager. When she came out she offered him a refund and apologized that he didn't like it. He then denied the refund and got hostile. Then he started yelling at the young lady up front who hung up on him because she simply just couldn't hear anyone on the phone. He says he has been a long time customer here and had one order that was not the way he wanted it so for him to completely blow up the way he did was very foolish. It seems he has a lot of time on his hands to come into a busy restaurant and complain about an order but not wanting a solution which they offered. In my opinion and in many others I am surprised that the police were not called on him with the way he was behaving. DiMaggio's is a family restaurant with great tasting food and amazing service. It's ridiculous how a review like this can be posted about a restaurant for everyone to see when the information isn't accurate. People want to be able to come to DiMaggio's and enjoy the food, the service and the atmosphere not a man screaming and throwing a tantrum because he didn't like his food. read more
