3.75 for Cheese Slice. Great Budget Friendly Option. Fresh handmade pizza. The dough, sauce and cheese are fresh for the price. Pizza a little on the greasy side, I don't mind though, personally. I will be back!

Extra cheese

Still yummy after all these years just more $$$ though unfortunately. But for an occasional treat, by the slice, it hits the spot.

Best Garlic Knots in Raleigh !!!

*** update*** The pizza is now better than the garlic knots. The garlic knots weren't as good as I remember them from two years ago. Not sure if it was because I ate them after they had cooled down a bit. BUT the cheese pizza, Omg. So freaking good. I would 10/10 recommend getting a slice.

Pretty good pizza. The crust is thicker than what I expect for NY pizza but it was chewy and crunchy, with a great taste. I also ordered a Caesar Salad which was good. The service was decent. My family and I went there for a late lunch on a Friday afternoon so it wasn't too busy and we didn't have to wait too long for our food. Ordered the Meat Supreme pizza, size X Large, so it was a good size for all 4 of us. They have stromboli, calzone, and different kinds of pizza. They also have a few sweets, too, like cannoli. Their lunch special is well priced. I would come here again if I want a pizza for lunch and I was in Cary.

Lots of tables

I am done with these guys, spent way too much money for subpar pizza. They don't respond to complaints so why bother.

I have a new favorite pizza restaurant in Cary!…read more I ordered for pickup and my Build-Your-Own pepperoni pizza was ready in 15 minutes (there's a Barnes and Noble, Trader Joe's, and other stores in the nearby shopping center where you can browse while waiting). The pizza was delicious, especially after sprinkling on Parmesan and red pepper flakes!!! Customer service was great for pickup. The staff greeted me with friendly smiles and conversation. A few couples and families were dining in. The restaurant had plenty room and, based on my quick visit, seemed like an ideal place to dine for small parties. I wasn't inside long enough to assess the entire restaurant and determine what space may be available for larger parties.

The pies arrived hot with that signature thin, wood-fired crust that's perfectly crisp on the outside while staying chewy inside. The toppings were fresh and generous, especially the huge chunks of marinated artichokes, which really stood out. The mushrooms, spinach, grape tomatoes, mozzarella, and Pecorino all came together beautifully without weighing the pizza down. If you're a fan of authentic Neapolitan-style pizza, V Pizza is definitely worth checking out. I'll absolutely be ordering again, especially when that BOGO deal pops up!

I do not enjoy leaving negative reviews but sometimes businesses earn a bad review the same way businesses earn good ones. I got a take out pizza last night which cost $38.00 and my friends and I wanted to sit on the patio and eat it. This is the second time we've been chased off the premises to eat take out. You are forced to walk further down the shopping center and eat in front of another business. They don't allow you to eat take out on the premises. At least they got rid of the cheesy handwritten signs they used to have. I honestly felt bad for the server who had to chase us off the patio because I think she knows how unfair the policy is. Here's the clincher...last night we saw not one but TWO BIG RATS. One ran across the patio, the other one ran by the front door area under a car. So I can spend almost $40 on a pizza but can't sit on the rat-infested patio to eat it. I told the guys at the counter about it but I doubt if it will make any difference. There are something called rat traps and there's no reason big rats should be running around the patio. I'm really disgusted with DiFara at this point...will definitely hesitate before going back and definitely will not be sitting on the patio for table service or otherwise.

Both were finger licking... I ordered crunchy okra, and potatoes, which were equally good and a great quantity to make it a dinner in itself we also tried non-alcoholic beverages, Italian sunrise and hibiscus bloom our server asked what we were celebrating, and when we said birthday, she brought a small tiramisu parfait with the candle as a surprise, which was definitely an icing on the cake overall, a great experience and we are already planning our next trip

There is lots of space between the tables and there is ample people watching at those who are visiting Fenton. I got the lasagna bolognese and my husband got the lobster ravioli. Both of us thought our meal was just okay and the high price point didn't match the quality. Our dessert was the most disappointing part of our meal. If tiramisu is on the menu, I will be ordering it. Colletta has a very strange version of tiramisu - our waiter asked if we wanted the cocoa powder when he brought out the dish, and the dessert was surrounded by chocolate sauce. For the first time ever, I did not finish a tiramisu. Our waiter, Dylan, provided wonderful service and was the peak of our experience at Colletta.

The atmosphere genuinely…read moremade me feel like I was back in Italy, and you can tell they use fresh, high-quality ingredients in everything they serve. The pizza and sandwich bread were both excellent, and I especially loved the flavorful green sauce on the sandwich. The pizza was delicious, although the dough was a little soggy in the center. The tiramisu was rich and tasted very authentic, with a noticeable alcohol flavor, which I personally enjoyed! I also took a sfogliatella home with me, and it was absolutely delicious. Everything else pictured we enjoyed at the restaurant. The staff was friendly, and the space is small but very charming, with wine and other Italian goodies available for purchase. It is a little on the pricier side, and while everything was very good, a few small details kept it from being a full five-star experience for me. Still, I would absolutely return in a heartbeat! Parking is free for two hours when you scan the validation code inside, so be sure not to pay for parking beforehand. We didn't have trouble finding a spot, although I could see it being more difficult on a busy weekend.
