Ari's Pizza

Finally- someone did serve up a slice of NY! This is the best, large sliced, foldable, pizza I have had in the Carolina's. I tried meat lover's, pepperoni, and Hawaiian. The sauce, and quality, fresh, ingredients are top notched. Costs a little more than chains, but well worth it!

We've driven by this little hole in the wall pizza place countless times over the past few years and had no idea we had such an amazing pizza place right down the road. Although it's in downtown China Grove, it's somewhat hidden in a corner and is easy to miss. The only reason I saw it was because someone came walking out carrying a huge pizza box. After reading all the reviews about how delicious the food is, we decided to try Ari's for the first time last night and were not disappointed. I was a little nervous to call and order based on some of the reviews, but the lady who answered the phone (and later helped us when we picked up the food) was exceedingly pleasant. We ordered a large pepperoni and mushroom, mozzarella sticks, and fried ravioli. The crust was perfection...thin, yet not too thin, and the crust was pillowy, chewy, and a little crunchy. The sauce was perfectly seasoned. The mozzarella sticks were the best we've ever eaten. The breading around the cheese was thin, light, and perfectly crispy and the cheese was still warm and stringy when we got home. The fried ravioli was so good too. The portions were generous, and you can tell the chef is extremely skilled and enjoys cooking good Italian food.We're ecstatic to have found such a delightful pizza restaurant so close to home and will definitely be back!

Coming from a nyer, best NY pie I have had in nc. Delicious, crust is perfection.

The phone was answered, and our order was taken fast and efficiently. My entry into the establishment was outstanding felt like I was in New York City with all the Yankee member Abelia the service was outstanding. I was shown my pizza to make sure it met my quality of pizza which it did. Price was fair, and the people were very friendly, even with the New York accent.PS wings are awesome

So today Jerry and I checked out Ari's Pizza in China Grove for lunch and let me tell you the spicy garlic wings were so so Good!! It was like buffalo and garlic Parmesan combined! I was literally rubbing my pizza in the sauce that was left! Pizza was so good as well! Owner was so nice and friendly! It’s right in front of the F&Mbank, we will def be back by!
