We ordered a large pepperoni and mushroom pizza New York Style a few days ago however the flavor was good but the pepperoni and mushroom was very minimal. If there's some kind of shortage of pepperoni and mushroom that pizza showed it ughh. And for the Door Dash Service she was great. Don't know about the ambiance of the restaurant but due to the lack of pepperoni and mushrooms on our pizza don't think we'll be dinning in. Hope this message reaches the management and this is correct for future pepperoni and mushrooms pizza orders. Thank you read more

I ordered the Lasagna, which is usually pretty good at this location. I waited for almost 20 minutes for it to come out. My wife got her food first. And when I got the Lasagna it was just luke warm. It wasn't very tasty either. The waiter was not very attentive. He spent more time talking to his friends behind the counter than us. They were also looking and laughing which seemed to be either at the table in front of us or us... The waiter was very monotone and had an indifference about him. Very disappointed in the food and service. We usually have a way better experience at this location. read more

Had the rare opportunity to have dinner with my daughter last night. What a nice time & treat. First, note it was Duke vs N Carolina basketball night, so be the restaurant was FULL. Yet, service was great. I ordered the chicken parmigiano and daughter had a pizza. We both had wine and split a beer. Her pizza was deep dish style and oozed fresh melting cheese. My Parm dish was a combo of perfectly executed breaded, then pan fried, chichen breast served over a large helping of spaghetti pasta noodles, each covered in a delicious marinara sauce. We completely finished the Parm, while most of the pizza went home for meals later. A very nice overall experience. read more

Came in to neighberhood restaurant. Upon a recommendation from Grace, they have an monthly special - Cuban Torta. While its not a traditional cuban sandwhich, their spin on this sandwhich is fantastic. The pork was so savory and delicious, the bread was fresh a Dough sandwhich, pressed, the rest was normal cuban ingredients. Fantastic and unexpected Cudos Hawthornes! Service was fantastic! And the restaurant was clean and has a good layout. I will be checking out the rest of the menu next few visits. Looking forward to it. read more

We were he about 1 week ago... I'm from WNY and born in Buffalo and used to a lot of home town Italian restaurants and a wide variety of pizza... and my family likes Hawthorns a lot. The wife gets their fettuccine Alfredo it's Wonderful... the portions are large and we usually take 1/2 home. The pizza is very good and very reasonably priced. The Chicken Caesar salad is very good too. My grandkids love the spaghetti and meat sauce (again big portions).We like the family atmosphere where kids are welcome as it has a cozy feeling. The grandkids love the Claw Machine!!! Service is always good for us. read more

I love the garlic knots! My pizza is always the best! Crust is crisp and toppings are fresh! Secret joy...the garlic Parmesan wings!!! Servers were courteous! Family friendly...comfortable and welcoming! read more

I'm be of the worst experiences I've ever had. Waited for an hour and a half past due date for pizzas for kids waiting at home to go trick or treating. Was told 15 more minutes multiple times in that span while I watched people come in order and get their food before me. All that was said when they were ready was "sorry". And to top it off, pizzas were awful...like they just rushed something out. read more

I was super dissapointed in this delivery pizza. I got a basic cheese pizza and honestly the crust was so chewy my jaw was hurting. It lacked sauce also.. really I just ate the cheese off the top. I'd like to say I'd give them another try but with all the new delicious pizza spots that have open in charlotte--I'll just stick to what a know. read more

Many years ago I frequented the Hawthorne's on 7th Street that was close to my job (during lunch). Food was delicious. As locations have been added I like to pop in if I'm in the area. Food is always consistently good. Brought my Mom to this one after a doctor's appointment. Service was great. Pizza is always great but I also tried the shrimp. I thought it would be spicier which I like but it wasn't. That means I have to order again so my husband can try the shrimp. He does not do spicy. I also tried the bread. A little too soft for my liking but good. Pizza and salad is really my thing here. Wait! The restrooms. Very important to note. Clean restrooms! Booths are nice and roomy. Great family restaurant. read more

Hawthorne's - the dining area - Pizza Near Me - Huntersville, North Carolina

This rating isn't based on food I've had here, but on something I witnessed on a recent visit to Hawthorne's. I stopped in because I was hoping to purchase a couple of slices of pizza. While I was waiting to be helped, I notice the host walking toward me adjusting his clothing and such. I don't mean to be vulgar, however, his arm was down his pants, only his elbow was visible. He may have been adjusting his shirt, but to say that seeing that as he walked to the hostess stand was unprofessional would be a major understatement. I'm sure he didn't realize I was standing there. Which is even more disturbing. Turns out that they don't sell slices, but if they did, I would have left without purchasing anything after witnessing that. Disgusting. read more

Best lasagna from outside mama's kitchen.. really good pizza and garlic knots cooked lightly

Absolutely the best crust in the area . I encourage you and family to share the experience in Hawthorne's the service was impeccable and the young waiters and waitresses were too notch. Not like the competition down the wall way . read more

This place feels like a local hole in the wall in Huntersville! Our waiter was actually the bartender and he was very knowledgeable of the menu. He suggested the chicken bacon ranch pizza. It was great! My wife got the basil mozz pizza and it was just okay. We got personal pizzas. Our buddy got a full large pizza with bell pepper and salami. Very good! I'm very picky with ranking pizza but I give it a 7 out of 10. Overall good experience! read more

So far so good, got a table outside to enjoy a brisk October afternoon in the dappled sunlight. It's pizza week and there's a special and I'm peckish so it seems a good match. Garlic knots to start... six on a plate all oiled and knotty and garlicky with a wee pot of red sauce on the side. Nice breads; soft centers and firm crust with a good chew, oiled up well with real bits of real garlic. The red was quite satisfactory in its tomatoey goodness. Personable pizza was very New Yorkie in a good way. The Crew showed up in its oniony banaña pepper glory plus meatballs and sausage on a 9" platter just asking for a splash of garlic oil, who am I to deny such a simple request?! A dash of crushed pepper and a few shakes of cheese and I'm doing alright. The rosé cider on recommendation was a good fit. not to sweet, not too tart... just be aware of the flute fries outside. FYI: peppers is sweet, not hot. It's NYC so no real surprise on this one. read more

Hawthorne's is our favorite restaurant in Huntersville. It's our go-to happy place for lunch or dinner. Our favorite things to order are the Elizabeth Special pizza. We order it almost every time we are there, but sometimes we'll order lasagna, meatballs or the chicken parmesan. The Godfather sandwich is amazing! We appreciate that they are able to accommodate large groups. I usually call ahead, but even the times we don't call ahead they are very gracious to place the tables together. The booths along the walls are comfortable and spacious, too. The beer on tap varies and the wine is reasonably priced. Bottled wine is half price on Sundays. Kudos, Hawthornes! Great food, great prices, lots of parking and friendly service. read more

Good Pizza. Nice Atmosphere. Plenty of parking. A number of take out orders processed while we were there.

The food here was not the greatest. We asked for a certain supreme pizza which would have peppers onions mushrooms. I got a pizza that had onions and sausage so I guess that's their supreme. I specifically asked for certain things on my pizza. Also, I told the gentleman that there was two of us so he sells me a large pizza which would feed like eight people They're looking to make money here what a terrible place I would not recommend going here unless you have a lot of money to spend read more

I'm very confused on how this bar has more then 3 stars... this pizza/most of my 60$ order was so disappointing. The cheese on my pizza is spicy. Taste something like pepper Jack cheese with American cheese????! The pineapple on my pizza was rotten, I literally have a stomach ache rn and only ate one slice. Explains why it was empty. Don't waste your money here. On top of it all the manager was a total bitch. Sorry not sorry. read more

We wanted to check out the best pizza at Hawthorne's in Huntersville , this pizza is not it. Order a large meat pizza and order of wing for delivery by Doordash,my problem is that the pizza was not good, no favor in crust, little sauce and the topping were just poor quality and very little cheese on the pizza. The price was outrageous and the 7 jumbo wings for 12.99 where dry and not very good. This the best pizza in town. read more

We started coming back here again and it is better than before. The baked ziti is fantastic and the chicken parm is wonderful as well. Yummmm! read more

I've lived in Charlotte for almost two years and never tried Hawthorne's. I figured it was about time I tried it out! They weren't very busy Wednesday night but there were several loud children . I guess it's fair to expect kids at a pizza joint but I was surprised that their kid night was a different night based on the amount of screaming children in the restaurant. I can't hold that against them though but be aware of it before you decide to eat here. My waitress initially seemed annoyed that I was even there but eventually warmed up to me and even smiled once or twice ! She actually ended up being a great waitress but not very personable. I read reviews that raved about the pizza called "the inducer." It's basically a buffalo chicken pizza. I really wasn't impressed with it and I was surprised it actually wasn't very spicy. It's called the inducer because it can "induce" labor. I also ordered the pizza rolls as an appetizer but they were served after I received my pizza. There was nothing that great about this experience and nothing that bad. It was just a meh experience so I don't know if I will return. read more

Sat at the bar. Nice ambiance. It's a pizza place in a strip mall, but lighting and colors escape the shopping environment. I had the Godfather sandwich and a couple Legion Juicy IPA's. I don't live in this town, but I'll be back. Also, Bartender Katie was friendly and fast. read more

This place used to be amazing !! It's was always on the higher end but worth it. Now -- do your self a favor and call Rockies !! The food is slipping -- their delicious cheesy bread is nothing more than melted cheese on a hoagie role -- or hot dog bun. Salads - not fresh Pasta a jar sauce is better ... Just don't anymore not worth it read more

Terrible pizza BEWARE! Had an issue last year with the pizza being served with no sauce on it and the owner offered to send a gift card if i took down my negative review. I took it down and he never sent anything. Got another pizza today to give it a shot and once again a whole pie with almost no sauce on it (see picture attached) Please consider other pizza places if you seek quality pizza . read more

Been coming here for a little bit now and absolutely love it! I always request Jen as my server and she always performs above and beyond!! The manager Chris is great, and it's just a great family environment to be in!! Plus, the meatballs and garlic knots are amazing!!! read more

Crispy pizza is a thing but I don't think this was intentional. My lord they cooked the living life out of this pizza. Now I see why it took 1.5 hrs to deliver. It was sitting in the oven for 60 mins of that I'm sure. No idea what the sauce taste like because all I can taste is charred crust. Once and done for me. Hard pass. read more

Pleeeeaase bring back your veggie sandwich! It was grrrrreeeeat! And now there are no sandwich options for those seeking veggies, or are pescartarian. Otherwise, pizza is good, esp with a draft brew. Calamari is also good. read more

I thought I reviewed this establishment previously but my review is not online. I enjoy the atmosphere at Hawthorne's. Service is great and the food is delicious. My favorite is Pesto Pizza with chicken. The pizza is just the right size when a hungry woman (me) comes in for food. A quick check of the website shows they have many NEW options on the menu that I look forward to trying. Their varied menu surely has something for everyone in the family or group and they also carry a kids menu. You can't go wrong at Hawthorne's. While they are typically busy, there is usually no wait time for a table. They have an outside patio seating area as well. The restaurant has a full bar for liquid refreshment to go along with your food. read more

Another great experience at Hawthorne's. Calzone and lasagna this time and they were great. We were ready to go until Sonia mentioned the special dessert was FRIED CHEESECAKE . You all MUST keep it on the menu! Dave and Sonia were excellent hosts like always. read more

Great pizza, good customer service. Got the inducer again and this time it definitely started something but the contractions fizzled out. So almost started labor! read more

Pizza here is really good. Kids ordered a cheese only and thought it needed more sauce. Service was really slow or would have rated higher. Mentioned the wait to the server and she made an excuse which didn't make any sense. Only needed to check on status and apologize, paying customers usually just want to know you're on it, not an excuse. read more

I understand not wanting to staff delivery drivers, but redirecting all online orders to Door Dash?!? For any potential customers, they use Door Dash for online ordering, and Door Dash always does what it can to charge you as much as possible to use their service which will add at minimum $3 to your purchase during an inflationary period. Love your pies fellas, but I'll only be stopping by when already out which will be much less frequent. read more

We came for a late lunch. The staff was very friendly, pizza was fresh and tasting. We had mussels for an app, they were good and a bit spicy. One member had a sandwich and gave it a thumbs up. Good wine list. read more

I don't usually do reviews this way but, the visit to Hawthorne's called for a different approach due to the variety of the components of the visit. Service: 5 Stars Greeted in a friendly way, seated and immediately asked for drink orders. One minute later a manager came up saying he noticed our server was double seated and wanted to make sure we got a drink order in. That was a nice touch. Our server overall was friendly and while very busy with a lot of tables, showed us an appropriate level of attention. Lots of different people brought food, cleared plates, etc. so a real team oriented approach to service. Salad: 4 Stars Got the Hawthorne's Salad which is mixed greens with candied pecans, mandarin orange slices, grape tomatoes, pepperoncinis and served with a blue cheese vinaigrette. All the components of the salad were fresh. The candied pecans were hit or miss in terms of being candied. The dressing did not hit me with much blue cheese flavor but was still very good and complimented the rest of the salad. One note - Stop charging $1 to split plates. That feels like such a nickel and dime kind of move and the way it annoys customers is not worth the few bucks you make off the practice. Pizza: 2-3 Stars It was A-OK in that it beat the frozen pizza I've got at home and was better than Dominos but to call this New York pizza is an insult to New York pizza. The biggest problem is the crust. No chew to it whatsoever. More bready than that yummy marriage of crispy and chewy that a real NY pizza crust brings to the table. I would love them to switch to a higher gluten flour. The toppings were a mixed bag. I really liked the beef being chunks of hamburger and not beef pellets. The pepperoni was nothing special but just fine. The white onions (nice touch to offer red or white) were plentiful but not really cooked enough. The cheese was average and the sauce was too sweet and, other than the crust, the worst thing on the pie. The menu has a good deal of variety and based on the salad and service quality we will be back to try other things but in terms of pizza, we'll go elsewhere. read more

Been here a few times. The first time I was there was a few years ago, and the pizza was better than expected, yet not amazing. On the second visit, I sat at the bar with two friends, ate some wings, and appreciated good service. On the third visit, I was alone at the bar and ordered pizza. The pizza wasn't good and the bartender was sitting at a booth working on some kind of project. Overall, subpar food and subpar service. You will be much better off going to Brooklyn South in Cornelius. read more

This place reminds me the local pizza places up in New York. I used to live in the Westchester County area and it is a really authentic place. The pasta sauces do not taste like they are straight from a can and the bread is freshly made on the premises for an outstanding taste. The bread for the sandwiches are also made on the premises and taste really good. Very busy location, make sure you come hungry and with time to wait! They do not deliver though, but if they did, I would always order pizza/pastas from them rather than Mama's Pizza on NC-115. read more

This was our first time dining in but not our first time trying the pizza. The entrance is a little confusing as there are doors on both ends. We ended up going in the one for take out then had to go back out to the other entrance to be seated for dine in. Once we were seated we were greeted quickly and had our drinks brought to us. There is a good selection of pizza and other items. I must say the Long Island Flavored (sweet & spicy) wings were VERY good!! We also ordered a 1/2 and 1/2 pizza (1/2 Elizabeth and 1/2 Buffalo). Both were very tasty and definitely not skimpy on the toppings. read more

Got a busy signal when I called. By the 6th try I finally got through and was promptly put on hold. 2 9" pizzas and 8 wings for $33 and it wasnt even ready when I arrived 30 mins after I called it in. Topper, it was okay. Will not be going back. read more
