Due Amici Pizza

I wanted a snack last Saturday so I decided to try out a pizza spot close to my house. When I walked in I saw it was rather busy. The staff greeted me immediately. The guy who took my order was super nice. I ordered a few slices, the garlic knots, and a beef patty. I just had to try it all. The food was done in 5 mins or less. I got home and was surprised that I had found a gem so close to home. I would def recommend this place to anyone looking for great pizza with a NY feel.

They have 14, 16, and 18 inch size New York style pizzas. Or you can order the pizza by the slice. They also have 3 different types of pizzas, a whole host of other choices from subs, to spaghetti 🍝 and lasagna. We ordered 7 New York style pizza 🍕 slices. 2 sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms, onions, and extra cheese 🧀. 1 pepperoni, mozzarella and basil. 2 sausage, pepperoni, onion 🌰, and 2 pepperoni. We was there around 6:30pm on a Saturday. It was not crowded and there were only 5 people dinning inside, there is no outside seating. Customer service was great we walked in and ordered. I'm not a New Yorker and I have not had a big slice of pizza in New York so keep that in mind when I give my 2 cents about the pizza. The only thing that I did not like about the pizza was it either was not enough sauce or not enough flavor in the sauce or both. All the ingredients were very good I had extra cheese on my 2 sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms, and onions slices with plenty of cheese 🧀. There are plenty of other things to come back and try. Like the beef patties, italian ice, gelato, meatball parmigiana sub and garlic rolls to name a few. I will be back to try some other things from their menu.

Good food and friendly staff. The only critique is a personal preference which is the Margarita Pizza was covered in mozzarella which is not what I was accustomed to in NYC. I found the mozzarella taste and texture a bit over powering for my liking but agian that's just a personal preference. As far as New York style goes the cheese slice was spot on.

So I LOVE the food here - the pizza is really great NY style - very authentic, good quality toppings. I love that they sell by-the-slice, makes it perfect for a quick lunch or if you take the kids. I've also had several of their hot subs and they are really really good. A big surprise here - their chicken parm dinner here is one of the best around - even better than the 'big name' Italian spots - its a huge winner. Only reason for missing a star - the service. No one in here is ever friendly. They are very matter-of-fact, no smiles, no jokes, I always feel like they're upset to be there. GRANTED, I'm Southern - and have a different expectation of friendly than NY - BUT - this shop isn't in NY - its in NC. If I could give em 4.5, I would - the food is that good, the 'service' just keeps it from being as fun as it could be.
