Love the pizza! All the food is great. I also get chicken Marsala and chicken Francis. Straight from NY. Service is good. They have a small dining room. Check it out! read more

I used to work in a mom and pop Italian restaurant in Florida back in the college, and this place easily rivals them! The pizza is fantastic, as authentically New York as it can be outside of the Big Apple. The people are super friendly and they have fast service. 10/10 we came back 2 days in a row and counting read more

Ferrara - Pizza Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

WAY OVERPRICED!! This is a pizza/sub shop, one shouldn't have to pay so much ($13) for a sub or $9 for a side salad!! I'd expect reasonable costs for a true pizza place meal. Not going there again. Sorry Ferrara's, the food does not merit the prices. read more

Craving real pizza after a Costco trip, wanted something more authentic. Checked out the ratings and here we are at Ferrara. Wait staff is very attentive and friendly, constantly checking to see if everything is good. Dining area is small but reminiscent of our hometown in Upstate New York. Pepsi products at the fountain. One major plus is fresh mushrooms for the pizza, not canned. Met other New Yorkers dining here tonight. Met the owners son who took very good care of us. The Pizza - solid, NY style with very tasty sauce, delicious cheese and great quality toppings. Not industrial cookie cutter pizza but great handmade pizza. Highly recommend this place for thin crust pizza and other Italian food which I will try next time. Check out their daily lunch specials. read more

We love pizza, and finding a place that has GF, and that is not cauliflower, is a huge win. Their menu has many great options, and we were able to order in person, and our food only took a few mins to get. They do have sleighs to go sometimes, and they are greatr amount for a good deal. We love the New York style, and this place took us there for sure. Great for having leftovers as well. We are for sure going to come back again soon. Love supporting small local place her in town. read more

This chicken julien is sooo delicious! The sauce is light and refreshing. I'm loving the fresh garlic. The chicken is ridiculously tender and the artichokes balance nicely with the roasted red peppers and black olives. The pasta is also nicely al dente. I think i'm on a mission to bring the world pictures of every delicious pasta dish! Incredible food at an incredible value. The garlic knots (you get 2 with your meal) are heavenly and I don't even usually eat bread! It also comes with a nice side salad. read more

My favorite restaurant for spaghetti with the best ever meatballs! Their pizza is NY style thin crust, add ons are very good. I believe their rolls are made by them and are delicious. We go for their lunch specials which are a very reasonably priced and still have enough for leftovers. Pizza by the slice is also available. Our orders come quickly. Great place! read more

First, we've ordered entrees from here and were pleased so we decided to try a pizza. Well... unfortunately, it was terrible! I'm not sure if the pizza (Philly Cheese) was supposed to come w/o any sauce or not because our pizza had no sauce of any kind on it. It was nothing more than mozzi cheese covered with toppings. I will say this though the crust was delicious. Other than that it was a dry bland tasteless mess of a pie! Very disappointing to say the least. read more

When it's cheat day and you want to feed your carb cravings THIS is the place to go! A beautiful Tuscana Pizza, 1 Chicken Parm Stromboli, and a refreshing Caprese Salad. This meal was delicious! My clothes will judge me later read more

During an onsite training at the Criminal Justice academy, we ordered pizza from Ferrara on our last day. I was the only one that needed the gluten free option and it was pretty good. I was expecting more of a New York flavor but gluten free pizza is hard to get right. Cheese and pepperoni were good and everyone else devoured the regular pizza. Check them out! read more

There's no shortage of decent pizza places but lots of people complain about not finding good NY style pizza. It was billed as NY style pizza. I don't think it's quite NY pizza. It's still good pizza and everyone in my family seemed to like it. The pros: Really good toppings The sausage was the chunks instead of the sliced The food was appropriately priced Nice people work there Kind of a cute ambiance The cons: It took forever to get two pizzas and we were the only people in the dining room when we ordered. The crust was meh. They only do cans and bottles for beverages, which means no refills, no ice, etc., and they had a limited selection. I wouldn't hesitate to there again. read more

Our pizzas were ready on time, the orders were 100% correct (mine was weird), and they were absolutely delicious!!! 11/10 recommend!

The pizza was great, but please put on some music. The silence in the dinning room is really odd!

Best pizza south of the Mason Dixon Line. Always fresh ingredients made right every time. For sure true NY style pizza. read more

Little hidden gem. The lunch specials are great! Cheese pizza is delicious. Thin crunchy crust. The sauce was so good! Service was phenomenal! Highly recommend. Excited to go back to try dinner items! read more

I'm so glad I tried this place.....the cheese pizza is amazing the Greek salad was delicious.... I Will get all my pizzas and salad from Ferrara from now on...I'm gonna try a calzone next! read more

Ferraras is generally very good and one of our go-to pizza places but the takeout pizza can be soggy and undercooked at times. This may be because they try and get pizza out the door quickly before completely baked. Staff is friendly and they try hard. Other than soggy pizza the pasta dishes are terrific. read more

We frequent here often and have never had bad food or service. I love that they have a deli case with slices of pizza. We almost always get a few slices from that case. The white pizza with ricotta... phenomenal. The margarita ... also phenomenal. The cheese pizza is equally delicious... the sauce is what makes it. We enjoy sitting around back for table service when we can as well. I love the New York inspired decor as well. read more

Finally tried Ferraras Pizza for the first time and all I can say as someone raised in NY is WOW!! The crust was cooked to perfection. Just the right crispness around the edge, yet foldable like a true NY slice should be. The sauce was slightly tangy yet not acidic. The cheese used is high quality and has just the right amount of pull when you separate the slices. And if you're a pepperoni fan, like the cheese, the pepperoni is of the highest quality I've had. If you're in the Irmo/Columbia SC area and want some high quality pizza at a reasonable price point get to Ferraras Pizza. read more

The flavor of the cheese pizza was remarkably close to that of Spaghetti-O's. The crust was pretty good, but no one in my party thought it was much like the NY style pizza we typically enjoy. I also had a Caesar salad, but there was no Parmesan in it, just more dressing than I prefer, but maybe that's just my preference. read more

I had the Stromboli and a taste of the cheese pizza. The pizza was excellent and the Stromboli was very cheesy. The pizza tasted like pizza I've had in New York in the past growing up. I would definitely recommend and plan on coming back. They have many other Italian dishes listed on the menu I would like to try. read more

Best New York style pizza in Columbia hands down! Everything I've tried here has been great and it could only be better if they used the water, iykyk. read more

YES! It was our first time trying. The pizza was delicious and the calamari was perfect!

Looking at it, you might keep driving. But the pizza and garlic knots were incredible. I highly recommend it.

Great pizza! Best pizza i have eaten in a long time. Will definitely eat there again.

Never a bad meal. The pizza is absolutely the best around. The lunch specials can't be beat and are served until 4pm. You will love the variety. We have never been there when we haven't struck up a conversation with folks at other tables because of the great family atmosphere. read more

Just had lunch here. My first time. It will be my last time. I walk in to take advantage of their lunch special. There's no one to greet me so I go to the counter. I order the lunch special and advise the lady I'm dining in. It must have been her first day on the job because she couldn't figure out how to ring me up on her cash register. I have to ask twice for my drink. She proceeds to hand me a styrofoam cup about 3/4 full with no commentary. So I go to get a table in the dining area. The waitress asks if she can help me. I replied that I'm getting a table. She tells me no, you've got to sit up front. She acquiesced when I told her no body told me that. She ignores me the whole time I'm there. I realize what's going on and was prepared to leave her a nice tip if she once asked how I was doing or offered me a refilled drink. I get nothing. I go up front for the refill and again get about 3/4 of a cup. Now that I know the lay of the land so to speak, I might have gone back but the pizza was absolutely bland. I say to the owner, spend a few more cents and flavor the sauce. An embarrassment to "New York style" pizza. Pizza Hut offers tastier food. read more

Really good pizza . I have only tried this place twice . Both times I got the lunch special pizza and a coke I believe for 11 dollars . Very good price for what you get . Nice chewy crust . Really good sauce not too sweet and very good cheese for the top . They have a lot of different options of course and they sell by the slice . Friendly staff too. Have not been disappointed yet . Keep up the good work... read more

First timer: Was told 30 minutes, but waited almost an hour. Watched the cashier thank everyone for their patience, except me(I was just standing). Then when I got my food, he seemed mad at me because they got something wrong that I had to pay extra for. Portion size good, could use some seasoning. read more

Food was delicious! Lunch portions were huge. I got the chicken piccata and it was so good. The waitress was friendly and funny. Only downside is you can hear the cooks/chefs yelling at each other. read more

Water was cold. This was the best part of the meal. Ordered the special, and the first bite was delicious, but after that the longer the pizza sat the taste went with it. Too expensive for 1/16" soggy bottom crust. Won't be back. read more

Entrées and pizza are awesome. My friend had Veal Parmesan and I had the Eggplant Parmesan which was a plentiful. Plan to visit often. My family enjoyed pizza here and at prior location off Old Chapin Rd. In Lexington. Great location. read more

Great pizza! I went to the one in Lexington during Covid a couple times and loved them. I was anxiously awaiting their new store front and accidentally went on their opening weekend... the ovens weren't working up to par and it took me over two hours for the pizza which was half baked but it was great; especially the next day when air toasted. It's pricey but the Philly cheese steak did not disappoint.... Tons of toppings the first week. Five days later they wouldn't do a half and half and the toppings weren't as plentiful but it was still good albeit a bit pricey. It's my new go to for pizza unless I want a special on Monday or Tuesday, then I will go to kovakis or the other ferrera read more

Idk what the hell zeke is talking about this place is so fucking good you should definitely go here. This pizza tastes like it's from New York, the people are very nice and the restaurant is great and I got a full glass of water for free. read more
