I got their margarita, pizza and pistachio cannoli.
Wow! This place is a diamond in the rough. From the food to the atmosphere was pure authentic Italian pizzeria. When you first walk in you can see them making all from ingredients with their open kitchen dining room layout so you can see them prepare you meal.
The pizza was soft , yet crispy with nice fresh basil that was very pungent and delightful. Their sauce and bread that they make fresh in house are the biggest to factors to why they are a success. They even sell their own olive oil!
Then I got the cannoli, also made fresh in house which was creamy and crunchy. These people take their time with food preparation and it definitely shows when it comes down to flavor.
This is a must try.

The pizza was amazing. However, I am leaving 4 stars for the lack of accommodation that is willing to be offered. We ordered the Bianca, which, if you are familiar with this type of pizza, you’ll know it has no protein. We wanted to add pepperoni to it and I was told there’s no way to make it happen. I said I didn’t want to remove or substitute it or make anything too complicated. I just wanted to add pepperoni and said I would pay whatever I need to in order to make it happen. I got nothing but a blank stare back from the cashier. I understand the desire of the owner to stay true to his own recipes, but I just feel in a customer oriented business you should be accommodating enough to simply add one meat choice to an otherwise protein-free pizza.

Went on Friday night. Bar was wide open. Bartender Sam is kind and hilarious. He recommended the whole menu. I forgot the name of the one I got, but oh my. The dough is so fresh, and the ingredients melt so yummy together. Definitely will go back. Im eating the leftovers right now. Popped the pizza in the oven, and it's as good as yesterday.

I was in Waverly on a Sunday night and had dinner at DeSano's. The restaurant is very big and it is cool to see their wood-burning ovens. We ordered a large Desano, which is a pepperoni and sausage pizza. The nice thing about a Napoletana pizza is that they come out very quickly. We ate the entire pizza, and it was delicious.

Love love love. I just moved to Charlotte from Omaha Nebraska. Decided to venture out and eat lunch alone. The music was on point. Oldies but goodies. I will be back sooner than later. Great for families and lonners such as myself. Next time I'm sitting at the bar. 🍺

It’s Mother’s Day, and for lunch I said no to all other restaurant choices in favor of my favorite wood fired pizza and fresh filled cannoli at DeSano. Always amazing, love the tomato sauce and just the right amount of cheese. Crust has a good chew to it. This Jersey girl is very hard to please when it comes to pizza! It’s not crisp crust like NY/NJ so don’t expect that, but excellent for its wood fired flavor. Gotta have the fresh cannoli with chocolate chips. Jon and team are great at what they do and super attentive!

The NY Pizza was fantastic. I did select a second red wine. GM John made sure we were happy and answered questions about the business. I believe we will have a celebration party in the winter.

Absolutely divine!!! Wood oven pizza cooked to perfection using fresh delicious ingredients. Overall restaurant concept is genius. Highly recommend DeSano if you are looking for quick, good quality pizza joint.

Pizza here was amazing. This is probably one of the best pizzas in town. The service here was not as friendly the day I visited, but they got the pie to me quickly and it tasted great!

Used the private room which is free. Purchased pizzas and bottles of soda. (only have bottles) They do have a water dispenser and cups.coyld use their paper plates and plastic ware. No bread sticks or othwr finger foods. If you want table coverings or other decor you need to supply. Was able to carry in cupcakes
Pizza is New York style, made in house dough l and sauce. Puzza was good.. 3 large (2 cheese) and 1 order of meatballs (3) was over $80 plus sodas. They do have salads $18 not sure if big enough to share.
Staff was friendly enough.

We have been to DeSano Pizzeria Napoletana in Waverly many times and we always leave happy.
Great pizza and wonderful staff.
Jon always makes you feel welcome.
Their salads are large and always fresh.
And for those who are gluten intolerant, my mom especially enjoys their gluten-free pizza.

This pizza was by far the best we’ve had in Charlotte! We come from a town in the Northeast where pizza is everything. It is a thin crust pizza with ingredients that have a very robust flavor. The pizza crust holds up well against the delicious sauce and cheese. Highly Recommend to anyone looking for quality, New York style pizza.
The employees at this location we’re also top notch. They were very outgoing and kind!

I ordered the Margherita Classica VPN pizza. By far the best margherita pizza I have ever had in my life! I was looking for a place that will give me true, authentic Italian pizza without me having to go to Italy. This place understood the assignment! The only thing that I wished for on my pizza was more basil. But that’s a personal preference, so I would never remove a star for that. The pizza was flavorful throughout and nothing beats a pizza from a wood-burning oven! Excellent job!

Me and my wife tried out this Pizza spot and we were definitely not disappointed. I'm a little different on being around a lot of people and we could actually get in and enjoy ourselves without a big crowd. That was a plus for me. The owner also came out and spoke with us and that made it even better. We definitely got the taste of true authentic pizza. It was so good, we took one home for our daughter. From the cashiers, pizza makers and owner, THANK YOU!! We will definitely be back!!!!
