Za Pie Pizzeria

The pizza at ZAPIE is expensive, but I find myself ordering it time-and-time again as a treat. It's basically gourmet pizza and I prefer it to some of its nearby competitors. I normally order pizzas from places that specialize in gourmet pizza-making and are not part of a franchise, ZAPIE has lots of pizza recipes that other places don't offer, especially where white pies are concerned. My favorite is Paula's Choice, it's a white pie with a garlic oil sauce, mozzarella, fresh tomatoes and spinach and I add anchovies to that. I also like my pizza well-done. One of my favorite pizza places in town was Pizzettas before they closed and another restaurant opened up. Elizabeth's Pizza also used to dish out amazing pizza until it closed down during Covid. The latter was Italian-owned, which I appreciated since I am from Italy and know the makings of a good pizza. Anyway, the pizza at ZAPIE is generally good, but it's expensive pre-and-post Covid. A couple of nights ago I had an issue where I placed an order for delivery an hour before closing and their online system gave me confirmation of the order completion and that I had been charged and then unbeknownst to me, the order was cancelled somehow because my confirmation stated the pizza would take about 60 minutes for preparation and delivery, but myself and guests waited over an hour and a half before ordeing food from another place. Needless to say the pizza never arrived. I originally wrote a bad review because when I spoke to the manager the next day he simply apologized with no offering to mitigate the circumstances of myself and my friends' inconvenience of waiting for hours for our late-night dinner. After my poor review, the same manager I had originally talked with left me a very nice and respectful voicemail informing me that his intentions were to discount my pizza upon my next order if I was willing to give the business another chance, which I intend to do because systems get glitches that sometimes cause failures in the processes we have in place, but that's how we learn how to take the preventative measures to ensure better outcomes in the future. Every good business deserves a chance to make things right for their customers and when I write my reviews, my goal is to help potential customers as much as the business itself because a good business takes no customer for granted.

I have been wanting to try Za Pie since they’ve opened but I live 6 hrs away now. Finally made a trip to Wilmington and got 5 personal pizzas, both of the dessert pizzas and the pecan bread. I was not let down-everything was absolutely delicious!!! I was very impressed with the food and the customer service! I used their “Za Quad” coupon which is 4 personal 1 topping pizzas (I added a few more toppings on some) for $39.99, I think it’s a great deal. It expires February 28th so use it while you can. Lastly, I love that the drive through is an option as well. Top notch place, check them out!! I wish I didn’t live so far away, I’d be a regular!!

I tried this place out a few days ago because, as a pizza professional and someone who values an open-minded mindset, I believe trying new experiences are crucial in life. A few days ago, I ordered a 14-inch pizza with just cheese because the prices are a little high compared to the surrounding national pizza chains nearby. I have tried those significant chain pizzerias across the country. I have had the opportunity to visit local and notable pizzerias in the Midwest and along the East Coast. When I met clients who had recently moved to North Carolina, I ask about their favorite pizza places. Let me tell you, this pizza joint is in my top three pizza places I’ve ever eaten at in my 27 years of life. I was talking to my family about the pizza I had the first time a few days ago, and I said my review was still developing because I needed a few days to think about it. Today, I can say with absolute confidence that this pizza is incredibly good. Today, I went all out and got an 18-inch pepperoni pizza with extra sauce, the whole nine yards, and it was an 11 out of 10. Since I’ve flown through social economic status, I’ve started experiencing the finer things in life, and the fact that I can afford this pizza without worrying about the price is a testament to the hard work and determination this country can provide. It’s more expensive than the large carryout pizza at Domino’s, almost twice as much. But if you’re visiting, hungry, or whatever damn reason you’re in the proximity of this location and you’re looking for a new pizza, this is your sign to get it. Also the staff is so friendly! They’re full of hearts and O’s. I conclude this review.

In town on vacation and decided enough seafood... like to eat local businesses. Za Pie has the best pizza around!!! Ordered a 18 inch pizza and drinks. If you want a great pizza you can't rush excellence.. wait time is 30 to 40 minutes. Worth the wait and time. This pizza place has great atmosphere and awsome staff. They do a outstanding job to give you one awsome pizza. If in Wilmington, NC. Or surrounding beaches, stop bye and eat a awsome pie!!

We LOVED their Buffalo Ranch pizza. We come to Carolina Beach every year and this is far and away the best pizza around. The food was delicious and the delivery was on time. They’ve also got “the good ranch” - (if you know, you know). We will absolutely be using Za Pie as our pizza place for every return visit to CB.

The presentation of the pizza was awesome. As soon as the box opened and my children saw the pizza they were amazed by the cheesy goodness. The dough was thin just how i like it. The portioning of the toppings 10/10. Awesome experience and amazing staff provided superb customer service.

Enjoying Za Pie for the first time at a friend’s birthday party and oh my goodness. All the food is exquisite. We will definitely be ordering from here so I can try their Veggie Za Lite pie next time! Today we had the chicken, bacon ranch pizza and it was delicious
