Root beer

I tried this place because we saw it being mentioned on food network as one of the top pizza places in the US so we had to try of course. The reviews had me to believe this must be true since there were a lot of reviews for how good it is. The place is small but comfortable. The service is nice. We ordered the queen Margherita and maybe that is where we went wrong. The sauce was too heavy which made the crust a little soggy. Very difficult to eat and honestly lacked some flavor. Maybe we should have started with the "Mother" but here we are. I will say the crust was a winner. Will I be back to try other pizzas?, probably not but hey give it your own experience since I seem to be the outlier here.

Great food. Kind and patient wait staff. It's a cute smallish restaurant that reminds me of some of the places we would go to in Italy. Because it is so small, you really feel like you're in a family place and are well taken care of.

Blue cheese stuffed dates wrapped w bacon & topped w marcona almonds. Caesar salad and cocktails

I am immediately sus of reviews that proclaim a spot is "the best" or has "the best" sandwich, pizza, etc in town. That said, Pizza Baby knows exactly how to make damned good pizza, bread and other things too. I always trust Trey Wilson knows what he's doing. They start with good ingredients and they know how to edit - not too many competing flavors, things aren't overdressed and the menu isn't too expansive. It's a Goldilocks menu - just right. The pizza dough and breads are naturally leavened (aka sourdough). That always grabs my attention. Sourdough pizza is just more flavorful, and hopefully has the right amount of chew. I've been here several times so this isn't my first review but it's my first review of them when I didn't even order pizza. Instead, we started with an aperol spritz and a glass of rosé. I love the stemware - it's simple and small in scale, with an old school, red sauce joint feel. We decided to try the blue cheese stuffed dates which were wrapped in bacon and drizzled with honey and sprinkled with chopped marcona almonds. Really good. Loved the almonds. The honey was probably not necessary. We then had the caesar salad. It was huge and not overdressed (I hate an overdressed salad). I'll admit it needed a sprinkle of salt. Next up, we split the meatball sub. This was tremendous. The meat to bun ratio was on point! The bun was literal hoagie roll perfection. A thin crunchy exterior, sprinkled with sesame seeds and the crumb was soft and tender - stunning and the perfect vehicle for those big, bodacious meatballs! They too were tender and hot all the right meatball notes. We were attending the Carolina Ascent game so we took dessert and a loaf of bread to go. That chocolate brownie was another home run. Dense, not cakey, and so rich and chocolatey - wow. Those are gift-giving worthy. The service was attentive and kind. Everyone was on top of things and worked well as a team. The vibes were lively and welcoming. This place rocks. Bravo!

Aperol Spritz

After reading raving reviews about this restaurant, my husband wanted to check out this place. We met up with 4 friends, and they were able to accommodate our larger group of 6. The place didn't have much of an ambiance...as it's more of a pizzeria eatery versus a full fledged restaurant. Not only stark, it was quite small, they squeezed in a lot of tables and chairs throughout. My husband and I shared this Rosemary Pizza, and the Joyce Farms Chicken Wings. I personally loved the pizza crust...and even the texture of the pizza. Quality pizza for sure. While I loved this cheesy, white pizza, this pizza just lacked something...but couldn't put a finger on it. It could have used a bit of spice or something. Guess the word is...bland? Think with a bit more prosciutto, or a bit more sauce, it could have been stellar....but it was just good (a bit short from great?). Also, the presentation was lacking. Think I liked the pizza more than my husband...who prefers more red, tomato-based pizza. As for the chicken wings, I thought it was fresh, but so tasteless! My husband felt the same way. We both agreed that while the foods were fresh and high in quality, everything we had was kinda bland. Another couple in our group tried the Queen Margherita Pizza...and they seemed a bit underwhelmed as well. I didn't take pics of the Caesar Salad and some other items ordered by our party...but everything seemed just O-Kay at best. The weird thing is...I looked at all the pictures at Yelp prior to coming here, and I thought the pizza looked thick (almost too thick for my liking), but it wasn't thick at all. Maybe the pictures were deceiving...or could they have changed the formula, and are now making thinner pizzas?? I actually really liked this Aperol Spritz they had on the menu...and I think my husband enjoyed his beer (forgot what). Service was pretty good though. While the pizza did take a good 15-20 minutes, but I guess that's to be expected from a hand-crafted pizzeria like this? Our waitress had no problem keeping up with our group. She didn't even have to jot down our orders (memorized?!?). In any case, I'm glad we tried this place. I didn't hate the pizza, but kinda hated the wings. It had ZERO flavor! Overall, I just didn't feel that it lived up to expectations of this place. We both felt that we have much better pizza and chicken wings elsewhere.

Native New Yorker here...we love pizza... I found Pizza Baby by mistake when I missed a turn My pizza was a 10/10 so good and filing. I couldn't eat all of it. Crust had a nice crunch and every bite I felt like I needed to close my eyes and exhale...so good!! Service was a bit slow, alot of chit chat with guests and staff while waiting for service please work on that. Great place to come for lunch when in the area.

This place is incredible!! Food is quality! Staff is friendly & inviting!! Would totally recommend this gem!

Caesar Salad
Latonya S.

Ready for a pizza party? I recently checked out Pizza Baby, and the vibe is casual and super welcoming--the host made me feel right at home! The server was swamped but she made it a priority to check on us. I started with their mule pizza baby style and it was very tasty. Honestly, I'm not much of a pizza person, but Pizza Baby is a serious opportunity for a delicious change of heart. I went all in on the Supreme style pizza and paired it with a fresh, caesar salad -covered in crunchy house made croutons. So if you're having a craving for pizza, go to Pizza Baby!

Wine shelves

LOVE LOVE LOVE Pizza Baby. This was my first time visiting but I plan to stop in whenever I'm in Charlotte. The restaurant is cute and cozy. I sat right next to the window and in front of the shelves of wine, it was such a vibe. For food I ordered the Queen Margherita (whole pie) and the Rosemary (Roman Style slice). A Roman Style slice is more than enough for one person but I wanted to be greedy and try a couple options. Both pizzas were delicious but the Rosemary was a great blend of flavors I'd never had before. I also tried the Little Gem Caesar salad. The salad had hearty pieces of romaine lettuce with just the right amount of dressing. I tried both the Hugo Spritz and the Limon Basil Spritz for drink options and both tasted great. The service was great, multiple staff members approached me to see if I needed anything during my time there and my waitress was super attentive. Parking is super easy, there's a free lot with plenty of space right across the street. I visited on a weekday shortly after the restaurant opened at 11am, so it wasn't too crowded. Will definitely visit again!

Amazing full of flavor crusty pizza!!! Nice and cheesy! Wonderful service! (Thanks Parrish) This was our 2nd time here and we absolutely love them. We plan on visiting their sister store Flour Shop to try their pasta dishes.

Roman Sicily
Kaitlin L.

This is exactly what incredible pizza should taste like. The queen margherita had the perfect amount of that sweet tangy pizza sauce, the right crisp on the crust (and great undercarriage btw), all balanced by the creamy mozzarella. And that pesto? Something I'm convinced every margherita pizza needs from now on! The Roman Sicily slice was nothing short of fantastic either - the fluffy and crisp crust, almost reminiscent of focaccia, is the perfect bed for the smorgasbord of toppings it comes with. The stracciatella melted with pools of the Calabrian chili oil is something I would like to write a love letter to. Overall, I would 100% come back & can't wait for my next experience. Pizza Baby, keep it up!

Side caesar

Heard about Pizza Baby and simply had to try it. We went to Pizza Baby East. This is a dine-in or take out restaurant. Its small but there is you have the option to be seated inside and out. When you go to their east restaurant the pizza is a Roman-style pizza. I love pizza so I had to try both options. I ordered the Mother pie and the Roman Mother. The Mother pizza is the traditional style pizza. Huge crusts! Personally I liked the Roman Mother. It is created using focaccia bread. It was very tasty. Pizza baby east is in a perfect location for those working or visiting Presbyterian Hospital. Its just a short walk from the main entrance. We will be back. Thanks for a great experience.

I LOVED that blanco pizza and can't wait to go back for it. I met up with a friend and already had water when I showed up. We decided to try a few slices and were NOT disappointed. The place is small but not too loud and we were tucked away in a cozy area. The servers were attentive!

New Pastrami Sandwich
Chris L.

Pizza Baby East is my favorite spots to eat in Charlotte. Hands down. We popped in here initially from a friends recommendation and we were blown away! It's cozy, welcoming, and obvious chef driven mentality. Anytime folks come to the city, I always bring them here to impress. Pro Choice: order the Negroni while you look over the food menu. They just launched their new sandwiches and both servers raved about the pastrami. Housemade bread, sauces, and the blackened crust on this melt in your mouth pastrami slice was top tier. Sandwiches come with a nice pasta salad on the side too! Another Pro- Move: order their bread loaf to go for the best sandwiches at home! 50 Top Pizza USA Guide and a true gem in the Charlotte food scene.

I recently stopped by the restaurant in the Charlotte Westin: Dogwood Southern Table and Bar. The…read morespace was airy, modern and light with a 360 degree bar, high ceilings and well spaced tables. I was intrigued by the item "Chef's Bite", that's it, no further explanation. As I suspected, it was an 'amuse bouche' offered from the kitchen. Today it was a Deviled Egg with a mustard-forward center, even containing black mustard seeds for flavor and crunch. As a fan of Sicilian arancini, I ordered the Dogwood's version as an appetizer. I was surprised to see several small rice balls, the size of hush puppies. I was expecting a single larger offering; 'arancini' after all mean orange in Italian. The risotto spheres were stuffed with pimento cheese and instead of the typical marina sauce, the kitchen had substituted a tomato jam with a subtle sweet finish. It was a successful southern riff on a Sicilian standard. Although I had been directed to order the Duck and Dumplings, my eye drifted to the Shrimp and Grits. I hadn't had much Carolinian food this trip.... The dish did not disappoint. It was amply loaded with flavorful shrimp and accented with good-quality andouille sausage slices, all over a well executed plate of grits. Service was prompt, professional and knowledgeable. This one is going in the book to return to.

The staff was very courteous, friendly and just the kind of people you would want working at this type of place.

You could taste the hot honey on the Brussels sprouts and some were crunchy, while the rest was not as much. Now for the short rib, I really like short ribs and was told this was a popular dish, but mine was a bit dry and a little too firm on the exterior. The broccolini and shallots were great, but the Ty Leno polenta wasn't my favorite. I would come here again, but I would try a different dish.

The torta was solid too, just a little spicy for my like, but I never checked if it was, and the Caprese made for a fresh, lighter option, it was missing the fresh mozzarella and fresh tomatoes. Service was fair. Overall, the place has a chill vibe, the food came out quickly, and we'd come back to try more of the menu.
