Are you craving an authentic Italian pizza experience? Come down to Mario’s Pizza for lunch near me. Our recipes were passed down through the generations from Calabria, Italy. Today, we have eight locations in the Triad area. We’d love to serve you and your family.

What is New York-Style Pizza?

Here at Mario’s, we bring you a delicious New York-Style Pizza directly from Brooklyn. New York-style pizza developed in the early 1900s when Gennaro Lombardi opened the first pizzeria in the United States in Lower Manhattan. Many major chain restaurants serve this style of thin-crust pizza.

However, here at Mario’s we do things just a little differently than the chains! We use traditional recipes and fresh ingredients to create the perfect pie, based on our family recipes and Brooklyn background. Our chefs start with a thin, hand-tossed crust, topped with our unique tomato sauce, high-quality cheese, and your choice of other toppings.

Our most popular toppings include the normal crowd pleasers such as pepperoni and extra cheese. In addition to choosing your own toppings, we also have a few specialty options, which are fan favorites:

  • The Worx: Our “everything” pizza, with pepperoni, sausage, beef, Canadian bacon, mushrooms, onions, bell peppers, and black olives
  • Pizza Bianco: For those of you who love a white pizza variety – ours has ricotta cheese, fresh garlic, and mozzarella cheese
  • 5 Boroughs: A meat-lovers pizza with bacon, beef, ham, pepperoni, and sausage
  • The Greenhouse: The ultimate vegetarian pizza with tomatoes, bell peppers, onions, black olives, spinach, and mushrooms

You can order any of these pizzas – or create your own – at our restaurants. Or, we offer delivery through your favorite services, including Slice, Doordash, Uber Eats, and Grubhub. We have multiple locations in Winston-Salem, Clemmons, High Point, and Greensboro, and we serve the entire Triad area through delivery, including Kernersville, Lewisville, Walkertown, Lexington, Thomasville, Rural Hall, Advance, Mocksville, King, Summerfield and more. If you’re looking to order pizza in Winston-Salem or any of the surrounding areas, we’ve got you covered.

Delicious Desserts After Your Italian Lunch Near Me

At the end of your meal, do you crave something sweet? We offer a number of authentic Italian desserts to satisfy any sweet tooth.

First up, if you love coffee, try our tiramisu. Tiramisu was first created in Treviso, which is a small town near Venice in Italy, and gained popularity in America in the 1980s. This desert includes thick layers of mascarpone-based cream and a dusting of cocoa powders on top. It’s perfect if you love a dessert that is sweet, but not too sweet.

Our menu also features cannoli. These fried tubes of pastry are filled with a mixture of sweet cream and ricotta cheese, mixed together with chocolate chips and sprinkled with powdered sugar. This dessert is a centuries-old treat that originally came from Sicily. Today, cannoli are enjoyed around the world with a variety of different fillings and toppings, but we think our traditional-style recipe can’t be beat.

For those who are looking for something a little different, we also offer a delicious limoncello mascarpone cake. Limoncello is an Italian lemon liqueur popular in southern Italy as an after-dinner drink. As the name suggests, it has a strong lemon flavor. Our dessert has layers of sponge cake infused with limoncello and Italian mascarpone. We top it with white chocolate curls.

Last but not least, we go back to our Brooklyn roots by offering slices of cheesecake. We serve authentic New York-style cheesecake. Order a slice for a dense, rich, slightly tangy and sweet end to your meal here at Mario’s.
