If I could marry a pizza, I'd propose to this one on one knee with a garlic knot as a ring. This pizza isn't just food; it's an experience.
The crust? Crispy yet fluffy, like a cloud that's been to culinary school. Toppings? Fresher than a cool morning breeze. And let's talk about the cheese! As I pulled a slice from the pizza, the cheese stretched out like a scene from a romantic movie, whispering sweet nothings of gooey goodness into my soul. Each bite was a symphony of flavors, a crescendo of creamy delight that left me weak in the knees and reaching for another slice faster than you can say "extra cheese, please."
I don't usually write reviews, but this pizza has me questioning all my life choices up until this moment. Move over, pepperoni, there's a new religion in town, and it's the Big Shindig.

The gus was super cheesy and loaded with mushrooms. The Spinach Salad was worth the price and packed with pecans, mushrooms and cheese. The Sir Walter just as delicious. Arrived still steaming and will be ordering again.

This is not the Lilys Pizza I've ordered before. The base was soggy and thin, the crust was not as thick as it once was. The toppings were minimal and I had to pay 3.50 extra for pistachios that did not even come on my pizza. I also asked for blue cheese with my breadsticks and they gave me marinara.

I've been loyal to this place since 2000 and lately your marinara sauce is so salty I can't even enjoy my calzone. I had requested only Italian sausage and olives remembering previous salty orders unfortunately I got Calzone full of salty pepperoni also add that with Himalayan salt marinara and its the end of your dining experience. Thankfully I'm more a fan of your bantam salad which never fails. I do wish you would allow adding extra paid dressings your salad portions can make 3 sittings for myself. The homemade salad dressings here are some of my favorites in Raleigh. I kept my Calzone in case the store contacts me because cold or hot salt overshadowed all the other flavors.

Made to order and fresh. Solid, garlicky crust. The Italian sausage was eh, tubed thin-sliced and chewy.
