Tony's Pizza Elizabeth City — Restaurant in Elizabeth City

In Elizabeth City there isn't a vast selection of dining out sit down choices available. There are the big chains like Applebees and Ruby Tuesdays which didn't tickle my fancy at the time. Using Yelp and feeling a need for italian food I found Tony's. It is a locals place with a basic decor, comfortable and clean. The menu (see photos) offered a nice range of italian meals. My friend had a linguine with garlic oil and anchovies which he said was delicious. I had a build your own Calzone, adding ham and sausage. It was crispy outside and stuffed full with ricotta and mozzarella cheese along with the added meats. Dumping the side sauce on top I dug on in and enjoyed every bite. I was stuffed, I wasn't going to let the calzone beat me. I dug deep and marched on. Yes, I won, I think. Plate is clean and I am stuffed. Time to go home and put on some...

Updated review. We ordered a stromboli and it was not good. Looked more like a pizza poorly folded in a partial half into some kinda of boat. 70% crust. A small pool of cheese in the middle and some pepperoni tossed on top. Nothing like a typical stromboli and absolutely did not look like the picture.

It happens, but when we told the waitress her response was "I dont make the pizzas". And that was it. When cashing out i was asked how everything was. I was honest, said the Veal Parm was good. The pizza too, but the stromboli was pretty disappointing. The response? Really? Well it happens...

Regardless of the first impression, the second ruined it for us. We won't be back.

Calzone was enough for 2. Sauce tasted like it was from scratch. Will absolutely be back for...

Ordered a large pepperoni pizza well done and a small garlic bread Togo. Checked the pizza before leaving and had to get them to cook it longer, it was far from being well done. The pizza was alright, the garlic bread though wasn't. Small sub roll that was undercooked as well with a ton of butter flavored oil spread and very little garlic. I ended up putting it under the broiler when I got home with more garlic powder and Italian seasoning. I wanted to order the fried ravioli, however when I inquired if it was in-house made the person working the counter said it was Sysco 🤢 Can't say I would be willing to try anything other offered on the menu other then getting a pizza from here. I was greeted with a friendly smile and a welcoming attitude. I would come back here...
