From start to finish, we had a wonderful experience here!! The view from our outdoor table was absolutely gorgeous. We could see the fountain with lots of greenery and flowers and it was so peaceful. Our waitress was friendly and attentive, and our orders were all correct. The Black Bear (blackberry) Mule was one of the BEST flavored mules I've ever had! My steak sandwich was massive, I ended up not even able to finish a half of it, so it was more than 3 meals for me which makes the value pretty great. They had so many things on the menu that intrigued me, I can't wait to come back here! Definitely check it out, you won't be disappointed. read more

I'm on road trip and was able to try My Father's Pizza. I tried both the black olive and mushroom pizza, as well as the white garlic pizza. Both were fresh, delicious, and had rich flavor. The slices were a great size and you could taste all the toppings. They also have gluten free options and salads. If you're ever in Black Mountain, check them out! read more

Found this gem of a place nestled in Black Mountain. The pizza was outstanding! I ordered takeout but would definitely come back and sit outside as the ambiance was great! The staff was super friendly as well! read more

Great pizza!! Staff were friendly and kind. We were just after lunch (around 1pm) and had our pizza within 10 minutes. The place is pretty big with indoor and outdoor seating. read more

This place has been raved about by folks that I know, and with good reason. This time I got the steak sub....it deserves its reputation. The onions and peppers and mushrooms were all perfectly caramelized and paired so well with the thinly sliced steak. All this piled on crusty fluffy bread....mmm mmm mmm Great place to stop after a hike to re fuel and warm up. read more

The best meal we had on our trip!!! Please make it a point to eat here. It was recommended to me by a gentleman I was passing in a parking lot to a neighboring establishment. He spoke of the best whipped ricotta dip and great pizza. So we drive back from Asheville for dinner. The ricotta lived up to his review plus some! Split a Hawaiian pizza which was excellent. Had we found this earlier in our trip, it would have been a regular experience. Madison was the perfect waitress informative, engaging and appropriately attentive when a Friday night rush could have distracted her to the basic service. The ambiance is family comfortable with a mountain chill. read more

Service and ambiance lasted about 20 minutes, but was worth the wait. I got a Monza on a GF crust and with vegan cheese, which is basically a Philly cheesesteak pizza with onions and mushrooms. The crust had a good crunch to it, and the whole thing tasted like a Philly cheesesteak with tomatoes due to the sauce. Overall, this was twice as good as I expected. read more

Solid pizza spot, especially after a hike! While at the summit of the lookout trail, 3 different people recommended My Fathers Pizza for lunch, and I'm so glad we took their advice. Not the greatest pizza I've ever had, but the skinny pig and Sourwood were delicious and exactly what I wanted after a morning hiking. read more

The atmosphere is very comfortable (like an old-school pizza parlor), our server was friendly, and we enjoyed everything we ordered. OUR ORDER - cheese pizza. Good crisp crust and nicely seasoned sauce. 4/5 - Cheesy breadsticks. We would probably not order them with cheese again -- the breadsticks were delicious but the cheese overwhelmed them a bit. 3.5/5 - Meatballs - nicely seasoned and abundant. 4/5 - Chicken Parmesan sub - good crunch to outside of the bread. It was good, but I was surprised that it was grilled chicken rather than fried and there was less cheese than expected. The pickle was excellent. 4/5 read more

This was recommended to us by a gentlemen in the parking lot while I was head to a different restaurant- he spoke so highly I came back later try it! Madison was incredibly kind and informative and attentive! The whipped ricotta was fantastic! Had the Hawaiian pizza also which was really nice! I'll definitely come back when I'm in this neck of the woods again! Reasonably priced! Best meal we've had on this trip! read more

I should say that were kind of stumbled into this place after a rude experience at another place across the street. Black Mountain is a very nice little, walkable town where we were staying in a hotel while visiting Asheville. My Father's Pizza is a very nice place with an upstairs bar and both an inside and outside eating area. Our watress, Lettie, was very nice and treated us like family and when she figured out we would be intown a few days she made suggestions on other places to eat- More on that later. Bruschetta was what we picked for an appetiser and it arrived fast and was very good and enough that we took some of it back to the hotel for later. We followed that up with a My Father's Supreme Pizza which was was terrific. All this time the waitress mad sure everything was fine and mentioned some places we might like to visit while in the area. He left full and happy. The next night we looked around for another place to eat in town and we mutually decided that we would just go back to where we new was perfect. Out waitress, Lettie saw us come in and got the hostess to usher here to her table so she could find out how our day went, We ordered the whipped Ricotta dip which came out quickly and we followed that up with a steak sub and lasagna. The portions were large and the quality was as excellent as the night before and I am sure when we are in the area again whe will be back. read more

My father's pizza never fails to deliver a delicious pizza. They even have gluten and dairy free options, which does not hinder the taste or quality at all. Definitely recommend if your in the mood for Italian food. The place is pretty big inside, when you walk in it's initially just a bar area. But as you walk further in the dining area is there and an outdoor patio. Super nice for a beautiful day outside to have a great view of the mountains. read more

The pizza was great, especially the Hawaiian. The table we got was great for our big group and the server handled our complex order excellently. All the other customers were very kind and friendly and we loved the atmosphere. Very cool place read more

I visited here once ~25 years ago and kept trying to come back, but the parking situation around downtown Black Mountain is intense. Today, I drove around for 15 minutes before finally spotting someone backing out of a spot within walking distance of My Father's Pizza. With that being said, this is a gem of a restaurant. The food was exactly what we needed-- fast, creative, fresh, and flavorful. The prices were totally reasonable as well. The indoors has almost a dive bar type feel, so don't worry about dressing up to visit. Our server was very friendly and got everything to us as it was ready. All in all, My Father's Pizza is as good as it was 25 years ago, so they must be doing something right! read more

Pizza was really good!! We ordered a large Greek salad and a medium Skinny Pig pie, which we really enjoyed. We'll probably go back later this week to try another specialty pie. Only small issue was that we felt like we were being rushed a bit - evidently we got there just before everyone else decided it was pizza time, because the restaurant filled up pretty quickly after we sat down. Our server asked several times if we needed a box or if we were done with our pie - which no, we weren't, we wanted to finish it! A minor complaint, we took it in stride because she was a very nice server and the food was great. Will definitely be back! read more

My family and I came here for dinner on a Saturday night. It was pretty busy but we were seated right away. It was very loud inside the restaurant. The waitress was friendly, however the food took a while to come out. I ordered a sub without cheese and onions and it was really good. It tasted fresh and the bread was soft. My family tried the margarita pizza and two salads which they also enjoyed. Overall I'd say that is a nice spot for pizza, just be aware that it can be pretty loud and the food might take a while to come out. read more

I have been visiting My Father's Pizza for years and always try to eat here when in the area. The food is always fresh and yummy! The steak and cheese sandwich, salads and of course pizza are favorites! I want to try the chicken salad bites next time! The bruschetta was delicious! Service is usually fast and friendly. You can sit inside or out depending on the weather. We always prefer the patio if the weather is nice! read more

Went on a Wednesday night in October. Good atmosphere. The bar service was good. The spinach lasagna arrived in 10 minutes and was very good! read more

Worst lasagna I have ever had. So greasy and disgusting. I only ate a few bites but I had heartburn for 2 days.

I used to give my father's a lot of business. I ordered 7 orders of garlic bread to go, which I had done many many times, and when I got home they messed up the order and sent me with bread sticks. I left a handsome tip for takeout and when I called to get it corrected, they refused to make it right. It blew me away as I had spent thousands over the years. They have gone way downhill. If your visiting my great little town, avoid this place like the plague. There is a great place next door called the trail head. Wayyyyyy better. Mike L read more

Came here for dinner this past Friday on our way into Asheville. We had a party of 9 & sat outside. Unfortunately, they weren't able to put the tables together, so we had to sit separately. That was the only downside. The pizza was decent, but the prices were great. It also would have been nice if there was music that played outside, but that wasn't a deal breaker. read more

I have been coming to My Fathers Pizza since I was a little boy, and it is still the best pizza in Black Mountain.

Was in the area for a ladies retreat and our group decided to kick off the weekend with lunch at My Father's Pizza. Based on other Yelpers' recommendations, our table chose to share a large Skinny Pig pizza and an antipasto salad. Everything was fresh tasting and delicious! Whenever I find myself in the Black Mountain area, this is a definitely go back. The staff was friendly and the restaurant was roomy enough for our large group to be seated comfortably at two adjacent tables. read more

Hairy Food! Well... it hurts me to have to leave this review. March 7th of 2025, my wife, brother in law, and his wife went out for our birthday celebration. I have visited My Father's regularly over the years. We grew up in the valley and live close by now. My pizza was good but had a hair in my first piece. I politely asked my waitress for another plate. I didn't make a big deal of it, thinking , ok, she'll make it right with me. Nope, she didn't even offer. Is hair in your pizza just acceptable now? I've known the owner for years. I have to say, I'm disappointed . We may not be back for a while. I really hope they read these reviews. It's important to their reputation. read more

My Father's Pizza was a 5 all around!! The food was amazing, there was a large enough menu from GF to specialty pizzas. We had gotten the Manzo, the steak was beautifully cooked and juicy, onions were caramelized to perfection, and overall was good. The crust was crispy and a good thickness to support the toppings, but not too thin where the pizza would collapse from the weight of the steak. The lasagna was a hearty portion and delicious. The eggplant Parm was seasoned well too. Our waitress and staff were accommodating since we brought our dogs and said we could sit out on the patio and gave us amazing service. We accidentally dropped the eggplant parm and they quickly cleaned it and ordered us a new one with no problems. The patio has umbrellas and tables to seat slightly larger parties. The restaurant themselves do not take reservations, it is first come, first serve. Order: Manzo Pizza Lasagna Eggplant Parm Catawba White Zombie Bold Rock Cider read more

This place was great! They seated nine of us in less than half an hour on a Friday night. Nice local draft list reasonably priced. I ordered the large spinach salad and added the smaller size portion of grilled chicken. Salad was huge and delicious and the small portion was plenty of chicken. Everyone in our party loved their food, from pizza to ravioli to calzones. Waitress was friendly and efficient. We'll definitely be back when we're in town. read more

This is our go to when we visit Grandpa. We always get the sausage and pepperoni pizza. We like how they cut their slices a bit smaller, which helps to regulate- ha! We also like to start with the Greek salad and it is the perfect salad. Highly recommend My Father's Pizza if you are looking for good pizza in the area. read more

Amazing place -- ambiance is ok. But food great! Staff friendly and attentive. Love the location. Hope the flood hasn't ruined them.

My fathers pizza is a nice family style restaurant that's all about family. I was recommended this place by my brother who is local and said they had the best pizza in the area. So I had to try it. We were seated within 15min of arriving and waited only seconds to be greeted by our server. Everyone who works here is so friendly and attentive to all customers whether it's their table zone or not. This is they type of service you only receive with family owned restaurants like this one. My family and I ordered the garlic rolls , cheese breadsticks, margarita pizza, traditional pizza, the spinach lasagna, the mushroom ravioli, and White Garlic Pizza. Yes this sounds like a lot butttttt it's all worth it. When on vacation you have to try as much as you can and I'm glad I did. Next time in town I'm definitely coming back. And if you haven't tried this place, you better make it a point to. read more

Not great. Nice servers but the crust is yeastless and ver hard and tasteless. Its very dense and dry, minimal sauce as well.

They were SLAMMED. Just blindsided with summer rush on a Wednesday at 5. The staff was young--but they all did a great job. Managing long food order times and huge groups of people waiting for food. They stayed calm and kind and didn't give up. Our food took a little longer than expected but everything was cooked perfectly. Good work guys. read more
