    Pepperoni Pizza Slice
    Denise B.

    You can't beat $4 by the slice pizza! Our slices were hot and the flavor is solid. There was a steady stream of to go pickups while we were sitting there. I'll be back to order a pie in the future.

    The crust? Absolute perfection--crispy, chewy, kissed by the fire just enough to give it soul. The ingredients taste fresh, not just in the sense of quality, but like they were chosen with love and purpose.

    Stopped by during work for lunch and this place definitely didn't disappoint. Authentic New York style and New York size too! All ingredients were fresh and tasty. Not only the food but the staff was super friendly and restaurant was very clean. Will come back when in the area

    I got the Philly and it was sooooo salty. I couldn't finish it. I'd go back but I'd prob stick with pizza or one of the oven baked dishes. They have a connected ice cream shop, I didn't try any this visit but made a mental note to go back and check em out since the flavors looked to be tasty.

    Ordered pepperoni and pineapple pizza. The pineapple was not baked in. It was thrown on the top before being given to me.

    It's very close to a New York slice I would get it for a regular pizza night. Great job. And great customer service very friendly.

    The beef pepperoni pizza was extremely tasty, and it has become my preferred choice. I will definitely come back for it.

    Large slices of classic New York-style pizza, but I always come for the cannolis -- they're awesome!

    I ordered Yafo Kitchen through DoorDash, and honestly, the picture of the Musakhan Chicken Pita…read moreTacos is what got me. They looked hearty in the photo and definitely did not disappoint. I love Mediterranean food, especially when I'm traveling and want something that feels a little lighter while still being filling. I also ordered a build-your-own bowl. I haven't tried the bowl yet, but between the bowl and tacos, the portions were very generous for the price. This is easily enough food for me to eat over a couple of days. The corn, however, wasn't for me. I was expecting something closer to fresh grilled corn, but it tasted more like grilled canned corn. It reminded me a little of Mexican-style street corn, but with less cilantro and cotija and more of a feta flavor. It just wasn't a highlight for me. My biggest issue was the delivery packaging. Nothing in the bag was sealed or secured. The pita bread was loose inside the brown paper bag, and the bag itself wasn't taped, stapled, or sealed. The taco container arrived caved in and leaking from the bottom, so unpacking everything was pretty messy. With food being left at the door for delivery, I would really like to see the packaging secured better. The tacos also needed a quick trip to the oven once they arrived to firm the pita back up, but after that, I really enjoyed them. Overall, the food was good, the portions were generous, and I would absolutely eat here again. I just don't think delivery is the ideal way to experience it unless the packaging improves.

    Yafo Kitchen has become my go-to spot in Charlotte, largely because of one dish: the schnitzel…read more If you're a schnitzel fan, stop reading and order it. Two generous pieces arrive shatteringly crisp with a beautifully seasoned panko crust that's never greasy. The chicken stays tender and juicy, and the fresh lemon wedges bring everything to life. It's one of those dishes that keeps pulling me back. My favorite side is the shell macaroni and cheese. Rich, creamy, and unapologetically indulgent. Together, the schnitzel and mac and cheese are comfort food perfection. I also love the self-serve organic Tractor beverages, the open kitchen concept, and how consistently clean the restaurant feels. The team is friendly, the food comes out quickly, and you can watch everything being prepared right in front of you. Parking is easy thanks to the shared shopping center lot, the outdoor patio along East Boulevard is pleasant, and the portions are generous for the price. Clean restaurant. Friendly people. Consistently delicious food. Yafo is one of those places that simply gets it right. Life is too short not to eat well, Charlotte.
