    Updating my review from a couple of years ago. The garlic knots are still the best in town. The food and pizza are absolutely delicious. And we were able to get an 18 " speciality pizza 1/2 Carnivore and 1/2 Bianco Deluxe. Most places don't let you split a speciality pizza like that. Service was great. Hailey was very friendly and helpful. Looks like they changed the inside a bit and it was booths now. There is picnic tables outside and I am not sure if that is new or not new. Highly recommend checking out this place for pizza. You won't regret it. And don't forget to get those garlic knots. :)

    Great pizza good service. Amanda took care of our order well. She said 20 minutes. It was done in 18. Not really sure what New York style pizza taste like, but it was very good . My kid loved the garlic knots. Ambience is great for a small family run pizza joint Will go back again !

    Omg these burgers, fries, and BBQ sauce!
    Lexy M.

    We're absolutely blown away in every way! Worth the drive from oceanfront! The best burgers, pizza, bbq sauce, ranch, and garlic knots I've had in all my 35 years of coming to Virginia Beach every summer. Their fries and cheddar jalapeño bites are so good too. Those garlic knots are famous for a reason! Wow just WOW! The place was really clean. There's plenty of inside and outside seating. Plenty of parking. The staff are so incredibly friendly and welcoming! It's family own and ran and they're great! We ate like kings there and can't stop talking about it. Huge delicious portions and reasonable prices. We're from NY (Queens and Western NY) and picky about pizza, ranch, burgers, and garlic knots! We LOVED them! Do yourself a favor and go to the pizza box!

    The Box Deluxe with banana peppers added. Yum

    Good New York style pizza, Friendly service. My friend is allergic to bacon of all things. She cannot even have the food if it is cooked on the same grill as the bacon. We checked. This place is great. She got a smashed chicken sandwich and fries. I got to taste it . I am getting this next time. It was great. It is a small restaurant. 4 booths and a couple of tables. There is some seating outside. We have never had an issue getting a table. Quite a few people get it to go or delivery. We usually go on the weekend. There is a steady flow but your food comes out fairly quick. We usually get the "Box Deluxe" 12inch. Sometimes we add stuff on. That is always nice that even with a specific pizza they let you customize and add on. There is plenty of parking because you can also park in the TJMaxx parking lot

    YES first let me apologize for no pictures of the food, the reason why I destroyed it each and every time. Every Item I have had was amazing, the staff even let me try some food, the guy on the pit outside can burn. The ladies taking your order are full of smiles and laughs, and the cooks just DO WORK!!! They also have a bit of a throwback theme inside the restaurant. If you are driving to fast down the BLVD you will past it, but turn around U-TURN, catch a bus, cab, I don't care just get there and you will leave full and will order more food for dinner later on that day.

    Tomato basil soup

    This restaurant is attached to a pawn business and is literally close to Virginia Beach Blvd, we entered the Foodlion parking lot, and the search began. Come to finally investigate a free-standing building with pawn signs. From the rear of this place, the signs from the back did not identify it as "The Pizza Box," just offerings of select food...subs and something else. Had we gone past it and turned at the light, it would have been no problem. Next time. No wait, order at the counter, and they bring it out to you. The staff was warm and welcoming. After a brief conversation, we learned they make their own dough and sauce. We were ready for a treat. Also, they have a handwritten board on the corner of the counter with specials. My husband ordered a bowl of tomato basil soup, one of his favorites, and this version did not disappoint. What arrived was a square bowl of piping hot soup with a basil leaf on top, under that was some cheese, I am guessing shredded mozzarella, but i could be wrong.This soup had texture to it, like the whole tomato minus the seeds all blended into a delightful, fragrant creation. A+ there, he really enjoyed it. I ordered a slice of pepperoni pizza and a large size (10) garlic knots that the reviews raved about. They were the best I have ever had, crispy on the outside, doughy on the inside. Fresh out of the oven, so aromatic. They were served on a plate circling a small cup of marinara sauce, all sprinkled with parmesan cheese. 5 went home. The pizza slice was the low point of the meal, a bit dry. It did have a thin crust, which I prefer, that may have contributed to its dryness. Next time, I will order a full pizza rather than a slice. The flavor was good, I have to give them that, and the pepperoni was just right. The chicken wings also had great reviews and market priced, which gives us something to look forward to next visit. Fountain drinks come in an oversized glass, so appreciated. I was looking at the smoker and picnic tables out front and thinking that must bring in the crowds when it is operating. There is something about a smoker with billowing smoke and the meat in it, making you want it. Thinking about the traffic going by and being drawn in, I know I would have stopped. There are plenty of areas to park and walk in at street level. The dining room is small, just a few tables and a few high-top bar seats, all very clean. I would actually give 4.5 stars if the pizza was more on target, then clearly 5 stars. The staff does a great job, plenty of quality to be proud of.

    35 fantastic wings, bleu cheese, celery & an ordered side of extra honey hot sauce
    Brennen K.

    It's been a little bit, but I got the craving for pizza & wings yesterday. Unfortunately, it was Monday so my hopes were dashed but I just decided Tuesday would be alright! Knew it would be 45-60min delivery, hey quality is not lightning speed & I planned accordingly. Happily ordered up on Local/Toast as soon as my work was done. Ordered 35 wings cuz last time I was disappointed I ate the bakers dozen so fast. Ordered crispy cooked honey hot, as usual- OMD, perfect. Crunchy skin and juicy tender inside! Went a lil different on pizza, pepperoni, pineapple and extra cheese. Crispy cooked, also. Accidentally clicked bacon, removed, then thought- WTF NOT? It was a good choice to go with happy accident. Excellent addition. The crust, as always, is perfect balance of crispy, biteable exterior with a really nice pull/chew that is perfectly satisfying. My only complaint is on me- I forgot the garlic knots! But honestly this will keep me busy for a while. And let me tell you- with air fryer for reheats leftovers are just as amazing as fresh delivered. If I were going to eat it all upon delivery, like if there were several folks available, I might order Xtra crispy for my personal preference. But honestly the crispy is fantastic, and lets me re-live the fresh delivered with no detriment. The quality of ingredients is always a step above, the delivery folks are always professional & super nice, and the taste is always exceptional. I don't even mess around when I want delivery, I know exactly where to go for a consistently exceptional experience. Thank you, Pizza Box!

    Literally our new favorite pizza spot. Mom and Pop vibes. Great service. These people are so kind. We usually opt for a 14" half pep and sausage and half broccoli and onion. I typically order a beer while I wait and they always offer a chilled glass. At $28, plus the option to sign up for loyalty rewards, Pizza Box is a steal for how good this pizza. I cannot get enough.

    Box deluxe
    Zane O.

    They have authentic New York style pizza. Great variety of pizzas. We get the "Box Deluxe " good flavor on the sauce with the right about of toppings. 12 inch is plenty for my wife and I for lunch. Great service and really friendly staff. Beer and soda available. I like to get the lemonade

    Garlic knots!

    The pizza was not good. The crust tasted like cardboard. The toppings were tasteless. Really not worth it.

    Do they take credit cards? Sometimes these "mom and pop" places are stuck in the '50s on cash only payments.

    They definitely take credit cards. I used one to pay every time I've gone there.

The sizes were recommended and they were huge and more than enough!! I love the build your own pasta so you literally pick your pasta, sauce, protein and veggies. It's like a family style and I would love to go with a group and we all share. They also have a happy hour. I will definitely be back. Now....my 92 year old mothers complaints. 1. It was too cold. We were going to move but they had a big fan blowing and they turned it away from her. Now take that with a grain of salt because the heat in her room is set to 76 and it's April. 2. It was too loud. Since the kitchen is open you can hear the cooks doing cook things. She was irritated by the noises coming from the kitchen but once again....grain of salt. The volume on her TV is at 80 and she can't hear it but can hear the kitchen noises. 3. The seat was too hard. Once again....grain of salt. She is skin and bones but I will bring her something to sit on next time. She actually did enjoy the food but I got the leftovers. :) We will be back.

It was a beautiful evening. Our server was Lauryn, and she was great. She was nice and attentive but not worrisome. We had the Wisconsin Cheese Curds along with the house made Sangria. As an entree, I had the whiskey burger with truffle fries. I really liked the cheese curds; they're a lot flavorful than traditional mozzarella sticks. The house made sangria was really good too! We had to stop ourselves from just sucking it down. The burger is where I had the issue. It was a little on the dry side.... Too well done despite asking for medium. It also wasn't seasoned well. The only flavor rally came from the bbq sauce and onion straws. The truffle fries were good though. The menu said they won't best burger of Virginia Beach, and that was made me get a burger. Not the best burger I've ever had. Next time, I will try the pizza and probably go to the Shore drive location since that is closer to my house. Again, the vibe, service, and scenery was worth the drive.. the food not so much.
