 Davincis Pizza makes new york style pizza in authentic brick
ovens. This is one of the new stores to open in the brand new
Shoppes at Davis Lake in Charlotte. DaVincis owner is from New
York, and has opened pizzerias all over th country. he is not
new to the business and the food is authenitc Italian from New
York. Italian is openly spoken by almost every employee in this
father/son establishment, as the cook is from Sicily as well.
The pizza defies all problems with getting true New York style
Pizza, and also breaks the boxes with its incredible size. 

I witness one cutomer receiving his small pizza asking if he had
received the wrong order, since it appeared to be a large to him
and to me looking on. The large I ordered on 3 occasions now had
to have the edges folded to fit in the extra arge box it is
packed in.

The pizza itself is excellent thin style pie. The crust is
slightly crisp and folds perfectly. My guests for pizza
commented on how "thats perfect new yourk style" when he saw how
it folded and eats perfectly. The dough is absolutley how I
remeber it from my 20+ years in New York as well.

This location is pretty new and does not have too much decor
yet. They sadly lack televisions and music to make it an
afternoon hangout, but the outside courtyard makes it great for
summer nights.

The location also doesnt offer delivery, and the owner tells me
he doesnt plan to. The goal is a sit down simple place with
excellent food and authentic service. I have been 3 times now
and must say it is the best Pizza NC has to offer for the hungry
shopper looking for New York Style Pie.

If you want simple, authentic, brick oven pizza you get so many
other places I highly recommend you stop into DaVincis Pizza
Charlotte at the Shoppes at Davis lake and get one of their
double large pies to sit in the courtyard and stuff yourself.

So if you are looking for the ,best Charlotte Italian
Restaurants , or just a place to get ,pizza in Charlotte ,
the new location of Divincis at the Shoppes of Davis lake is
offering a new New York flavor for University City in Charlotte.
