Rating based on: consistency, cleanliness, quality, taste, and presentation Tony's Pizzeria Just Casually Slapping On Route 70 coming in HOT! Look, I was driving down Route 70 type hungry - you know how it is. Being a New York transplant, my pizza standards are higher than gas prices right now, ( everything gonna be alright) and I walked into Tony's Pizzeria ready to be disappointed. First thing I noticed walking in? The place is immaculate - lit up, clean, and not giving that sketchy "we definitely failed a health inspection" energy. Cleanliness? Impeccable. Already off to a suspicious start because places this clean usually charge you for the ambience. Now let's address the elephant - or rather the ENORMOUS GIGANTIC PIZZA - in the room. These things are bigger than your actual head. Like, concerning levels of big. You could use one as a sled, a coffee table, maybe a small raft. But here's the thing nobody asked - you don't NEED the circus-sized situation. Regular slices exist, and honestly? That's where the real magic lives. That SAUCE though - semi-sweet, robust tomato deliciousness that's so scrumptious I'm literally driving back just for that. Tell them well done and watch them deliver you this perfectly crispy, no-flop masterpiece with cheese pulling like a Dave Chappelle performance. As a former New Yorker with 25-30 years of pizza credentials, I'm giving this an 8.9 for North Carolina standards. Yeah, I said what I said. But wait - this young lady working there casually mentioned the PHILADELPHIA CHEESESTEAK like she wasn't about to change my life. I'm standing there already getting hit with these smoky, grilled pepper and onion aromas floating from the back, and honestly I should've just gone home right then because nothing was gonna top that smell... except the actual sandwich. That PHILLY CHEESESTEAK? Immaculate. Impeccable. Juicy steak seasoned right with dripping wet deliciousness in every bite - the kind of sandwich that makes you question every life decision that led you away from this place. Only critique? Could've used a touch more cheese, but listen - the prices are so reasonable I can't even be mad. Pretty sure if I'd asked for extra cheese they'd have handled it. I was just too busy inhaling it to ask. Prices are so fair you'd think inflation forgot this place existed, which honestly feels illegal in 2026. Oh, and location? Right next to CarMax with a sign so aggressively bright it's basically legally required to stop. You genuinely cannot miss it unless you're actively trying to. I'm not affiliated with Tony's - I'm just a guy writing this review while hungry, low-key mad I'm not there right now. Pull up. You'll thank me later. Must try remember tell him well done that's a pro tip. read more

Tony's Pizza - Big delicious - Pizza Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

They advertise the "largest slices in the Triangle" and I honestly believe it's true. Their lunch special of two slices and drink will fill up anyone not training for a Marathon: they're huge. Ordered a cheese slice and a pepperoni slice. Both had an excellent crust and the cheese and sauce were good. The pepperoni slice was a bit salty for me, but good. The cheese slice was really good. The slices also came out nicely crispy, and stayed that way. Foldable as good NY slice should be! Counter service and they bring your order out. Drinks from a fountain, which is nice. At the time of this review it was pretty much $10 for the two enormous slices and a drink. The also offer a senior discount (nice, but I didn't ask for it). Plenty of booths, and it's nice little spot to enjoy a good slice! Be hungry! read more

Tony's Pizza - Yes, those are enormous slices! That paper plate is maybe 6 inches in diameter. - Pizza Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

Don't order from Tony's website for delivery. They don't know how to use a delivery service to ensure your order arrives and the person who answers their phone is clueless and of zero help. No accountability. I've been going to Tony's for 20+ years, I will not any longer, their poor customer service and lack accountability has lost my business. Zero stars. read more

I finally visited Tony's which ironically is located right next door to my fitness studio Sk1ll. I've maintained a high level of self control the past few months avoiding this place. Yesterday I ordered 2 pepperoni slices for my daughter and garlic knots. As a native New Yorker, I know good pizza. When I heard that the slices are huge, I didn't expect them to be humongous! These are notorious B.I.G huge ! We enjoyed the slices and I look forward to ordering a fresh pie next time so that I can taste the difference. The slices were just reheated. The only thing I did not enjoy was the garlic knots. They had no garlic on them at all. Disappointing. Service here was excellent. There was a adorable young man running the cash register and many others working hard. read more

This is our favorite pizza place in town. Truly NY Pizza and the slices are huge!! The prices are also unbeatable- just gotta know to order your pizza well done! The garlic knots are also incredible. We go here at least 1x a week and the staff is super friendly. read more

I love this place. Customer service is always great. Food is hot and tasty. Clean and peaceful restaurant. One of my favorite spots.

Enjoyed some really good pizza on my first visit to Tony's. A refreshing change from the usual pizza chains.

I have been ordering take out from Tony's for 12 years. I have always been very pleased! We usually get one spinach calzone and one large house salad for the two of us. If we order pizza we usually get the white pizza. Very delicious! read more

Usually, the food is amazing I love their salads and the eggplant parmigiana. The portions are large

They have a nasty attitude. I was asking for one thing and walked off then I decided I wanted it and was going to pay for it but before I could say anything the owner had a attitude and cut me off saying you know you have to pay for that. Nasty attitude for no reason read more

Slightly above average pizza, nothing to write home about, but at least you're not eating massive amounts of dough with each bite!!

We decided to give this place a try while waiting for a quick mechanic visit. Really glad we did! The pizza is classic New York style, with dough that is not too thin and not too thick. The sauce and the pepperoni was the definition of savory. The whole slice was satisfying. The garlic bread was drenched in butter, olive oil, garlic, and Italian seasoning. It sounds unhealthy, and that's because it is. But I don't think anyone stopping by a pizza joint is in search of health. The garlic bread was well worth getting it as a side, anyway, though if you can't handle digesting oil well you'll have to do what I did and eat one or two slices. This joint is hidden somewhere in a nice neighborhood on the way to Glenwood Ave. We went on a weekday evening at around 6pm and the place was empty. It kind worried me to see; but the more we waited, the more I noticed the kitchen was swarmed with orders for takeout. People kept coming in and out to get their orders. Must be a neighborhood/local favorite. The staff was friendly, too. There is nothing about this place to write home about, and that's what makes it so good. Just good, classic pizza. I'll be adding this place to my pizza options. Thanks, Tony's! read more

Real pizza from Italy, NY style pizza. Delicious! Huge slices I have had no interaction with service other than ordering food. They have heavy Italian accents, and I'm glad when they understand my order. The ambience is a step up from fast food restaurants. read more

I don't recommend this place after an order of veal parm and pizza today. The place will only accept prepaid orders on an unfriendly website. Would not accept a coupon on picking up food. And food was not very good To say the least! I'd pass on this place and will not return myself. read more

Always good pizza, prompt service, and friendly staff. Great local business in a convenient North Raleigh location. Easy to get in and out.

The subs are pretty tasty, but their pizza is quite floppy. We used to come here, and the slices didn't lack the constitution as did the slices we got tonight. When I say floppy, I mean that it looked as though it need hanging out on the clothes line. Perhaps we hit them on a bad night. read more

We ordered a large pizza, Philly cheesesteak and fries. Everything was delicious! Will be visiting again soon. A hidden spot that we would have never found had I not Googled for good pizza restaurants. read more

Soo...there are times, not many, when my go-to pizzeria is closed and yet I crave some 'za. I have tried a couple of other locations and keep getting surprised at the lack of knowledge in what pizza is. Come on people! It's not hard. Dough, sauce, mozzarella ( nope...NOT.cheddar...all of you that put cheddar in 'za must hand in your cooking card) then if you want, toppings. Why people think you have to go all hipster on an age old classic is truly beyond me With this all being said, I decided to give Tony's a chance. I mean...if they decide to keep it simple and just go with "Tony's"..then by that reason it should be as good as I get in Philly & Jersey. They did NOT let me down. The crust wasn't overly crunchy (yes...looking at you brick oven bakers...I don't want a pizza cracker), the sauce was fairly decent...a bit sweet but I can work with that. The cheese was perfect. The prices are very reasonable...considering that everything is getting more expensive. I got my pie delivered and it came still warm. I am comfortable in using this as my subgoto and maybe go-to if the other place is too busy. You could do worse. No...really. There is a LOT of bad 'za in the Triangle. Go to Tony's. Go on. Just don't get pineapple on it....that's just disgusting. Lol read more

We just got a pizza from Tony's and the flavor was not there and the crust and veggies were not cooked. They offered to give us a new pizza but that would have required us to go back into the restaurant which we weren't willing to do today. I guess the search for a decent pizza spot in Raleigh continues! read more

Run of the mill NY pizza... no complaints except why they claim to have the biggest slices in Raleigh or refer to their slices as "Monster Slice" in their mailers when they are no bigger than any other pizza places. Schiano's are Randy's pizza have slices that are about twice the size.. those are "Monster Slices". read more

Stopped in for a quick bite between appointments for 30 min and enjoyed a lot. Got a (huge) slice of cheese pizza for $3.50 and it was delicious. Crispy crust, good cheese and sauce. Filled me up too. I'd recommend and return read more

Very poor customer service. Entered before closing by more than 20 minutes and was told they were done for the night. Employees made it very clear they did not want to serve us. Will not be back or recommend. read more

"Sorry to that woman" is what that slice of pizza should have said to me before I purchased it. The best and worst part is that it's big AF. But after one bite your realize you're on a journey of consuming mediocre, extra thin, hard crusted, bland pizza. I added oregano. I added pepper flakes. I added Parmesan and none of them can salvage this pizza. read more

Best NY pizza in the area! Moved from NJ I. 2005 and searched for the best pizza. This is it in N Raleigh.

Called up Monday August 9th at 8:48pm to order some tirimisu to-go from across the street. Looked up online and it says they close at 9:30 so I was surprised to hear that they were already closed. I asked for future reference if they closed at 8:30 and maybe I had misread but the guy working said no, they close at 9pm. Hmmm.. ok. Understandable that COVID has jacked up online hours and that restaurants might not be able to keep track of changing all the times on all the websites but closing early never looks good. Not to mention what I was ordering was a prepackaged item, assuming they hadn't rushed to do the drawers already it should've been no problem serving their customer, would've been in and out before 9pm. I'm a bartender myself I understand wanting to get out on a slow night but, like I said it just is a bad look! I get if I was calling at 8:55pm but this was 8:48pm these are your business hours to serve customers. read more

The pizza here is good but it's very expensive. It was $24 for the smallest pizza they offered. It was a "specialty" pizza but still a bit expensive. It was ready quickly and it was good! Inside is a very basic dining area. It's close to my house so I'm sure I'll be back but there are better pizza places in the area. read more

The pizza was really good and huge!! The garlic knots were so so. I'd most likely not order them again. I had to get a Togo box though for my slice of pizza because it so big I couldn't finish it. The place is very clean and the workers were very friendly! If I was in the area again if definitely go back and get the pizza. read more

Great New York pizza. One slices is more than enough for a meal. But skip the pasta dishes.

Authentic NY Italian. Pizza is #1 and eggplant parmigiana & lasagna was excellent. Always great food.

The absolute closest to an authentic NY pizza around. Thin, crispy, cheesy, flavorful. Yummm.

One of my favorite pizza places in Raleigh. Classic pizza parlor indoor seating. Great to dine in and eat after a day at the pool, or kids practice. read more

Awesome pizza! The New York style slice was huge, perfectly cooked and was a great value. read more

Best pizza in the area. This has been my main pizza place for 10 years now and has never let me down. Their steak & cheese is also amazing. Tony's is a staple to the area and I hope it never goes anywhere. They give the high school students in the area deals for lunch. The same guy has been serving me great pizza at a great price for 10+ years . read more

Hidden gem in an obscure strip mall off of Glenwood. Nothing fancy. Good NY pizza by the slice or by the pie. Also subs, calzones, and incredible garlic knots. Great place for lunch. Lot's of specials like two huge slices and a fountain drink for $8.50. Quick, cheap, good, filling and very friendly. read more

Normally I love Tony's. They may be a tad pricey and a wee bit slow, but their pizza slices are gigantic - and generally pretty darn delicious. Right after one of our recent hurricanes, we stopped in for dinner. Oops! There was an hour left before closing time but no fresh pies. Nobody wanted to pop one into the oven either. I get not wanting things to go to waste, but could they not have tried to act as if they cared; as if maybe tossing a pizza into the oven wouldn't have destroyed them. I really hate to trouble people but being willing to buy their product. read more

It took almost two years and a good many terrible pizzas to finally find the best pizza in Raleigh. 24" massive pie never disappoints. These guys are good! read more

The white pizza is our preference from Tony's. We are always on the look out for vegetarian choices. Tony's veggie sandwiches are only ok; we like the ones from Papa John's better. The dining area is pretty decent; large and nice natural lighting. It's in a pleasant shopping area. Of course it's kid magnet so not so nice for an adult couple to chill with a some beers. read more

I second the below comment that is definitely a hidden gem in Raleigh. It doesn't seem like it would be as big as it was inside when you walk in. The place is very clean and the staff is very welcoming. The person who took my order (his name was Hassan C. the really tall one!) was so polite and accommodated everything that we asked for on the pizza. We only waited about 5-10 minutes for the pizza to be made fresh. You can tell when you look behind the counter that the everything is being made very fresh and the staff is working in a clean environment. The waiter brought our pizza directly out to the our table with clean plates and peppers to add. We ordered pizza with a chicken topping on it and it was AMAZING. Perfect amount of sauce & cheese!! Highly recommend and will definitely come back. read more
