Fries
Fatima A.

I wanted pizza bad and just googled pizza near me and came upon this place. It had pretty good reviews and I wanted a place that had slices. It was a small place with adequate seating. The bathroom was clean. There were only 2 people handling a steady stream of people. The 2 people were super nice and kept apologizing for the wait. I ordered a slice of pepperoni (got 2 for the wait). My friend order a salad ( hair in it) fries and a sandwich. The fries were good and hot. The pizza was ok. Nothing to brag about and my friend didn't like the chicken swarma sandwich. She didn't finish it. Again they were super nice trying to compensate us on every turn. They put on hair nets after we pointed out the hair in the salad, made a new salad, but she didn't want it. Well I'm going to keep searching for the best pizza in the area.

Sausage Sicilian with NY Style Pepperoni
Lori R.

If I were to stumble upon this restaurant in NYC, I would probably see a long line of folks who had been appreciating their quality of food for years. Instead we can experience this level of quality right here in North Raleigh in a strip mall by Aldi's and Total Wine on Capital Blvd. An area previously starved for great pizza. The two of us tried it out on this Friday after work. Previous reviews had mentioned the friendliness of the place and we couldn't agree more. This is a proud family who invites you in and welcomes you with an awesome variety of items to choose from. Pizza by the slice...NY style or Sicilian...whatever toppings you want... whole pizzas, calzones, pastas, sandwiches, Mediterranean fare...there's a wide selection. We kept it simple with two slices each. I chose two Sicilian Grandma's style, while Husband had one Sicilian and a NY style pepperoni. Order at the counter. Get your own beverage. Beverage choices are minimal. Soft drinks or water. Would love a tea option. Prices are very inexpensive, especially for the quality and quantity. Our four pieces plus two soft drinks with tip were just $25. Note they are currently having a five dollar off $25 grand opening special. Not sure how long that lasts. Let me tell you this is some amazing pizza. Rich. Full of flavor. The Sicilian was so different from the NY Style. I've had plenty of Grandma's pizzas before but this was different. The sauce was magnificent. And I loved the addition of rosemary. Added pepperoni to one slice and sausage to another and both were so rich that I could only eat half of each. Looking forward to leftovers. Not a fancy location, but rich in flavor and friendliness. This is the kind of place you crave and want to come back for more.

Chicken shwarma platter
Amber C.

Craving satisfied! I stopped by this place for lunch today when I noticed that the previous restaurant (that I loved)was no longer there. I had really been craving some chicken shwarma and grape leaves. The food was absolutely delicious! I was not disappointed at all! The portion sizes are huge and well worth the price! I couldn't finish everything and had plenty left over to eat for dinner. I ordered online and my food was ready at the time they said it would be. The staff were pleasant and friendly. Everything was hot and fresh. I had the chicken shwarma platter and grape leaves as I said I had been craving! The decor was beautiful! I will definitely be back! I've heard great things about their pizza as well so I'll definitely be trying that soon.

Medium NY style pepperoni pizza
Darrin K.

I recommend trying this place. Their pizza is good and that is coming from someone who thinks pizza in raleigh is generally garbage. I ordered a medium pepperoni pizza ny style. It was bigger than expected, more like a large. Fair prices. The lady that worked the counter was super nice. It was to go and she asked me if I wanted Parmesan or plates, which is a nice change from most places not caring. 5 stars for service.

Lunch special
Tamara W.

I like the pizza by the slice better than the pizza in the lunch combo. I got the lunch special with wings,two slices and a soda for around $13. Very good pizza.

Margherita and pepperoni slices

Best NYC style pizza I have had in some time. Generous toppings. Nice dining area. Nice people too!

The owners warm and welcoming, extremely attentive.
Julie D.

Today I stumbled upon this gem. Immediately as I walked in I was greeted by the owners, they were warm and attentive. Since I usually shop at Aldi's which is right next to it, I decided to give it a try and I am so glad that I did. I ordered one of their Monday-Thursdays lunch special which was 2 slices of pizza with a drink. Once I sat down and took the first bite of the slice of cheese pizza, I was hooked. The crust was thin, airy, not dry at all. And was well complimented by the savory sauce and generous cheese. What I liked the most was the freshness of the pizza and the service. I would absolutely recommend this place, as they also have an expansive menu including hot and cold sandwiches, pasta, and desserts to name a few. There's also plenty of seating for those who choose to dine in like I did.

12inch pepperoni and bacon pizza
Raquel B.

The owner is great. He is friendly and very accommodating. I believe the young lady working there was a relative of his. She came in and immediately started to help him with my order. They didn't even have to speak to each other and they were working side by side like a well oiled machine. I mention that because I appreciated the additional attention to my order as I was heading back to work after I got my food. To summarize: Kind folks, clean restaurant, speedy service, and now the food. The pizza tastes very good. The cheese is the right amount of oouey gooey, the crust a hint of sweetness, and the toppings were fresh. This beef patty with cheese was average. I can do without the cheese. Vera you have yourself a repeat customer. Come one come all to this hidden gem! I saw some deserts through the glass. They looked yummy that's next to try.

Pizza Roll

Excellent!!! You won't be disappointed! We enjoyed visiting Tara Grill for many years. The NEW Vera Pizza & Grill is a pleasant surprise. The owners have done a wonderful job with the menu and recipes. (Freshest Grape Leaves ever!!!) Amazing Taziki Sauce.

Walking into the cocktail bar/dessert lounge it feels trendy, dim-lit, like something that belongs in a very large city (but glad to have it in Raleigh), and 21+ as I was asked for my ID at the door. Once you walk in, definitely have your ID ready and then you will be seated. A server will then come by your table to take your order. For drinks, I ordered the Fireside Old Fashioned (Maker's 46, cayenne, chili-pepper sugar, Crude smoke-salt bitters) and my partner ordered the Chai Espresso Martini (house-made chai tea, vodka, sweetened espresso). Both drinks were excellent and well made. The old fashioned had a nice full bourbon taste and a really nice spicy flavor at the end each sip. For deserts, we ordered the s'mores sundae (torched house-made marshmallow cream, Valrhona dark chocolate brownie, vanilla ice cream, toasted graham) and the Caramel Apple Cupcake. The Caramel Apple cupcake was good but was more like a muffin vs. a cupcake and was on the dry side. The s'mores sundae was excellent and had so much chocolate flavor. Overall, would highly recommend checking out Bittersweet if you are around the Downtown Raleigh area looking for a nightcap or dessert bar.

The ice cream shop is located in the smoky hollow area and is across the street from Madre. Walking into the shop it feels modern, social media friendly, and you can see the assembly line where your paleta can be customized. To order you'll walk up to the counter and place your order with the cashier. I went for the strawberry cheesecake paleta dipped in white chocolate, covered in graham cracker crumbs, and topped with caramel drizzle. The paleta was delicious and I'll definitely be back to try the other flavors.

When we arrived, The person working there was nowhere to be found and we stood there confused for a while. When he finally came out to the counter he seemed to have his mind completely elsewhere with headphones on his head, and he even told us to "ring the bell" when we were ready to order, and turned around and left into the back room. Finally, after making up our minds and placing our order, As he was preparing our cinnamon rolls he was grabbing them from the glass enclosure thing and literally throwing them into the to-go containers, the impact they made upon landing made an audible thud. The service we received made the experience Cinnaholic disappointing, but once we ate the cinnamon rolls that we bought they were very tasty. The "old skool" flavor was our favorite one as cinnamon rolls are very sweet so any added toppings just push it over the edge. I did feel like the rolls were lacking that ooey gooey cinnamony center, and I wished the frosting was a bit more evenly dispersed over the roll as large dry spots were exposed. But overall they were yummy!

Because our daughter was tired, we decided not to dine in but to get food (and dessert to go). Staff was attentive and apologetic about the wait. As far as the ambiance, if you are into nostalgia and old Hollywood, you'll see a photo of a familiar famous face everywhere. (Even in the bathroom!) I see why this place is an institution and a local fave for how everything tastes homemade. For a slice of cake , which is enough to share ..it was $15! So be prepared to spend a pretty penny here.
