Ralphie's Pizza - Sausage pizza - Pizza Near Me - Ridgeland, South Carolina

Turned Around Reviewer and Family As promised, we have again visited Ralphie's Pizza. Again, it was early afternoon on a Thursday around 2:15 PM. True to his word from his reply to our first review Joel (Owner), gave us a free Pizza, and I bought one as well. Both pizza's I am very happy to report were very tasty and delicious which we all enjoyed right down to the fresh basil they added, at our request to both of our extra large cheese pizzas. We all feel we can highly recommend dining in at Ralphie's very roomie and comfortable restaurant or taking out their pizza's as it was a very pleasant experience. So take your Brother Tom, your Sister Sue, your clairvoyant Aunt Ruby, who can tell you how delicious your pizza will be before you get there and you know, how much she enjoys saying "I told you so", but go, and enjoy one of our "Low Country's" best pizza offerings. That's right, this is a turned around reviewer and Family! Visit Ralphie's Pizza at 61 Rivet Walk BLVD in Okatie, or Ridgeland, SC (to be clear, the same place. But why should I be responsible for figuring out the right town location, when YELP, can't) because you will enjoy their pizza. And for those of you with a parsimonious nature calculating that the free Pizza made us change our minds, I would remind you that we threw out four pieces of pizza from one pizza, and four pieces from the second pizza in our first review. While it was very generous of Ralphie's Owner Joel, to make good on his offer which we all appreciated, it in no way influenced our second review. You see 1-1+1=2 which is what we paid for the first time. Visit and enjoy their pizza as it could become Pizza Central for you and your Family. Enjoy! read more

Pizza was cooked well, had a lot of things on top and the sauce was good. Crust folded just right and a little grease dripped. Place was not too busy and our pizza was ready quickly. The restaurant is set up like a nice neighborhood bar with the bar on one side and pizza mostly the other. We are new to this local area not to the South, and this is the best pizza we have found. Definitely recommend this place. read more

4-23-24 We heard wonderful things about this place so we thought we would give it a try. We had a salad with buffalo chicken and a chicken parmigiana sandwich. All I could say is meh. Next.... You could say they are known for pizza but I didn't get the pizza parlor place vibe. Definitely a one and done. read more

Dough was over cooked. If we pay for extra toppings add it so we can see it. Which I find ridiculous to charge. Train your staff to say we add a sur charge on cc therefore we don't leave a nice tip! read more

Ralphie's Pizza - Medium Ralphie's Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Ridgeland, South Carolina

Ralphie's is exactly what we have been looking for! The pizza is like we used to get back in NY/NJ, the prices are very reasonable compared to most places around the area, and the service is impeccable! Eat in or take out, you can't go wrong!!! read more

Pizza is very good. They claim it is New York style. I think the crust is a little doughy for this style, but it is still very good. I've only got takeout from here, but both times have been great. read more

Just got a pie to go and it is amazing! Just the fact that they will put eggplant on a pizza got me excited! The crust is perfect, the cheese is spread out nicely, and the toppings are evenly put on. I haven't had a pizza this good in years. I went from being a New Englander, to living in CO for 20, years, and SC for the last 2. This is the real deal! I am injured so I am not able to go out for now, but I look forward in the future to trying other amazing menu items (and of course another Eggplant topped pizza). My Mom has been there and she said the Calamari was great and I look forward to having one of their sandwich and salad items. Thank you for starting your business here! Yum! read more

Went off of people leaving reviews of how wonderful this place was. We were a party of six and the place was packed, but was seated immediately. Food came out quickly server was amazing. definitely would recommend and will definitely will be going back. My Son says the pizza was yummy. read more

Ordered takeout for dinner tonight and made it very clear when placing the order that I have a dairy allergy. I specifically asked for it to be noted and for there to be no cheese on anything. I also added the $4 meat option to the pasta entrée (which turned out to be two pretty small meatballs..for a dinner pasta portion). When I got home and opened the food, the salad was completely covered in cheese. I understand that mistakes happen, but food allergies aren't a preference or a picky request. When someone takes the time to say they have an allergy, it's because it actually matters for their health. It was disappointing to see it ignored, because something that seems small, like cheese on a salad, can be a real problem for someone with an allergy. read more

Great fast paced and friendly. Delicious and obviously fresh prepared. Yummy! So good

As a New Yorker, I think Ralphie's has great pizza! I've tried several items on the menu as well and love this place. Meatballs, chicken piccata! read more

Calzones are awesome! Don't add the tomatoes though, soaks the dough, Great staff and easy going atmosphere

We have been here about a half dozen times. It is a combination pizza place, restaurant, and sports bar. Lots of tv's so you get to see all of your sports favorites. The pizza is always great. Best in South Carolina so far by my standards. I usually get a sausage pie the sausage they use is flavorful and plentiful. On my most recent visit, we got the calamari, it was very good and a calzone. The calzones are a meal in themselves, stuffed full of cheeses and meat. My wife always gets the gluten-free cauliflower crust pizza and says it is one of the best she has had. Service is good and they check regularly to see if your drinks need refilling. read more

So happy we found this place. As New Yorkers it's hard to find a great pizza place outside of NY, but we found it at Ralphies. Have gone back many times at this point and will continue to do so. read more

Food was great , we will be back. We loved this place . We will try something different every time we go there. If you get a chance check it out we won't be sorry trust. read more

Definitely the best pizza in South Carolina, by far and away. No one else is close. If you're in a hurry, grab a seat, at the bar. It's the real deal, by people who are from NY, and KNOW what great pizza is supposed to taste like. This ain't no chain or assembly line pizza. This is FRESH, and as close to homemade as possible. It's worth waiting for. Enjoy! read more

Finally a great pizza place in this town ! We arrived at 4:15 and the place was slammed . They opened at 4:00. So far a good sign . We ordered Boneless buffalo wings and the White pizza , added peperoni. This place is legit ! The pizza was excellent , full of flavor a delicious crust . The buffalo bites were also so good and tender . I saw people getting Eggplant and Chicken Parm and it was huge . It just opened so it needs a little more decorating but who cares really if the food is great ! read more

We tried Ralphie's for the first time on a Sunday afternoon and were disappointed. The country music on their PA system was deafeningly loud. I asked the waitress if they could turn it down a notch or two and she promptly forgot. When reminded, she finally did it but within minutes it was back to an eardrum-splitting level. Having a conversation with my wife across the table from me required shouting and a lot of "what did you say?" We ordered something simple: Their base pie with pepperoni. There seemed to be no logic or reason as to who got served and when. People who came in after us had their meal and paid before our pizza came out; it took 35 minutes. Meanwhile, the pizza hadn't yet arrived for a party next to us who were already seated and drinking beverages when we got there. The pizza arrived luke warm; not the bubbling topped pizza we're used to getting when eating in the shop. It was if it had been delivered from another place. It was also barely cut. When the waitress stopped by, she saw us struggling to get the pieces apart. I told her that we were having difficulty and she said "huh" as if it were interesting and walked away. The crust was spongy and the taste bland. There was no stringy strands of cheese when we finally get them slices apart. The taste wasn't bad, but it's not New York pizza by any means. And most importantly, not the treat we expect when we eat in at the pizza shop. If we had it delivered, we would at least have had the tools to separate the slices. FYI: The bill for a pizza with one topping and two draft beers: $45. They do have a full bar and a small number of beers on tap. We'll go elsewhere the next time we're in the mood for a pizza -- somewhere where we can have a conversation, where the waitress is attentive, and we. Can get good HOT pizza. read more

What a great restaurant! The pizza was delicious! The crust was perfect-not too thick and not too thin. It was as close to New Jersey pizza as I've had in SC We also had the pappardelle carbonara and the eggplant parm. Both were delicious! Our waitress Brie was friendly, helpful with suggestions and attentive. The place seems like it would be great for a group of friends to meet for dinner. Highly recommend! read more

Excellent pizza with prompt service! The crust is to die for with excellent sauce and loaded with meat! read more

Very good NY style pizza. crust was delicious and it wasn't swimming in sauce. Pasta Carbonara was very tasty. The Italian sandwich on garlic bread was fantastic and enough to take home. read more

Arrived at 4pm to do take out. Told no sandwiches or pizza slices after 4. There were only 2 tables taken. I ordered a calzone that took over 35 minutes to make. I added extra ingredients & was charged the same amount for onions that I was meat. I already thought the prices were high. Then there was a charge called a delivery fee. (I sat & waited for it). Then it looked like I was taxed 9 1/2 % on the total including the "delivery fee". I know darn well that we don't have 9 1/2 % tax rate around here! Then it didn't even taste like a $20. Calzone. Pricing is too high & something is wrong with their charges! When I asked what the delivery charge was, I was told "that's above my pay grade". Buyer beware, CHECK YOUR RECEIPT! I will not go back. DOUGH BOYS is way more worth the money! read more

These ratings must be lies. Yes, the staff was polite, however, the wings were pure trash. Tasted like burnt grease. I could only eat one and felt bad about throwing the rest out. read more

The best pizza I ever tasted in a long time! Keep up the great work!!! The was nice and friendly also.

TERRIBLE If this place isn't going out of business, it should soon. We ordered 2 pizzas to go. I was told 40 minutes before ready. Got there exactly 40 minutes later. Got them home, 10 minute drive and the pizzas were ice cold. There was hardly any ingredients on them and the crust was cardboard. I'd bet they sat under the heat lamp for 25 minutes. My 2 boys wouldn't eat them, boys, hungry boys wouldn't eat them. Does that tell you how bad they were? They went to Buffalo Wild Wings... The dog didn't mind gnawing at the 1.5" of dry gross crust, nothing on it. Very little cheese, ingredients and sauce. The worse pizza in town! I had heard great things about this pizza place. The first time we tried something different there. Got sandwiches, it took them an hour and the places wasn't even busy. There was only 1 server for the whole place, she was nice, but why wouldn't she be, she was raking it in for the fools eating there. She told us the story about the owners and the place and frankly that was why we gave it a second chance. There won't be a third chance. read more

we ordered the bruschetta appetize which was amazing. The pizza was thin crust and crunchy and incredibly tasty. Would definitely recommend this place, it was great. Our waitress Kimberly was also amazing. The atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming. We will be returning. read more

This is a great place for a pizza or sandwich. I have had the cheese pizza . Also a chicken Parmigiana on a garlic knot roll . My review counts since I'm born and raised in NYC. read more

Great New York Style Pizza. Best in the area. I went in for pickup and the dining room and bar were full. People seem to like the food. I did have to wait 45 minutes from when I called to pick up my pizza though. Not a problem but you need to account for that during dinner time. Place is not directly on the main highway (170), so GPS is needed. read more

Nice place, fun trivia on Mondays. Pizza is good, chicken parm is excellent! Large servings for a reasonable price. Be patient, food can take awhile, but that's what fresh cooking is all about. This Jersey Girl is happy they are so close to where I live! read more

Real Jersey Pizza in SC. We grew up in Philadelphia and this is the real deal pizza. Don't waste your time on other places except for New York City Pizza down in Bluffton near the Kroger in Belfair. read more

Well I went based on reviews . Wait was long , sat at the bar and the bartender was nice . Ordered the pie from the front , I asked is it real pieces of bacon , she said it's real bacon . I asked pieces or chopped up like bacon bits . Said no it's real bacon pieces . Sure enough the pie had bacon that's all crumbled up Sauce is bland , dough chewy and undercooked , crust was a light tan color . I'm from New Haven so I'm use to the best and it continues to be a struggle to find a great apizza down here . I usually always give a place 2 tries , I'm not sure I can here . I think Sunset was better , not much better read more

The pizza compared to all existing places in HHI, Bluffton, Ridgefield and Okatie is the best. Compare it to NYC, Boston and New Haven it's a football pizza 6.8 out of 10. Here it's 10. Service sucks. read more

Excellent pizza -- employees are going above and beyond to deliver. Wait may be long --- but well worth it. Be patient- worth the wait.

The pizza was good. For an appetizer we ordered the brochette. It was delicious. Staff was friendly I wanted to try the garlic knots but they didn't have any, will go back again. read more

Good food. Service still a work in progress but they are recently open. Design is a mix of an old bar and country restaurant.

Great food, great service and most importantly great pizza. Possibly the best pizza in the area. Highly recommend.
