Pomodoro's
Tucked away in a strip mall, Pomodoro's is much more than its unassuming outside appearance. The menu is full of subs, pizza and pasta dishes. The décor, complete with paper napkins and inexpensive silverware, might seem more fitting for a straight sandwich-and-pizza joint, but the food will make you think you booked a first-class flight to Italy. The locally owned restaurant is popular with locals, so expect a short wait at times. Don't worry, though, the portions are generous enough that you're certain to leave with leftovers.

Tony's Pizza
Italian-born friends Tony and Mario own several pizza places in North Carolina serving what they call "authentic New York-style pizza." The pizza dough is made fresh daily and is then hand-tossed and stretched. Most of the main ingredients such as the pepperoni is shipped from New York to ensure the pizza retains its "authentic" taste. Sicilian pizza, calzones, and baked ravioli are just a few of the menu items available for takeout or to eat in the dining area.

Brooklyn Boys Neighborhood Pizzeria
Situated in the Morrison Plantation shopping center, Brooklyn Boys is the equally popular northern location of the local favorite Brooklyn South Neighborhood Pizzeria in nearby Cornelius. Both locations focus on flavor when it comes to their calzones, lasagna, or pizza by the slice. There's no white-glove service here. Order at the counter and a server brings food to the table. Servings of lasagna, ravioli and other pastas are large enough to share, or to take home for later. The interior is decorated with reproduction New York subway signs and is filled with plenty of tables and booths. Take-out service is quick, even during busy times.
