“ The pizza was so good- even for a person that doesn't love pizza. The service was absolutely the best in town. Ingredients were so fresh and you can tell that they are of the best quality. Absolutely worth the price. We will make sure to take all of our visitors back. ”
“ Noah's service was amazing! my pepperoni pizza was He did a great job with customer service too. ”
“ This place is busy! But the greeting was friendly and helpful and the service was terrific. They feature Brooklyn-style thin crust pizza. Dine in, have a drink, or pizza to go is available. It has a modern tavern feel. The foundation of a great pizza is the crust, which was perfect. Cracker thin not over or undercooked. I had cheese and pepperoni pizza having a mild sauce and's cup-and-char pepperoni. For some reason my slice was salty but still very good. I also had a slice of veggie pizza which was less salty. ”
“ The food that we have ordered was really good. Fresh homemade taste tomato sauce with garlic rolls and white pizza with prosciutto. All the staff were friendly, courteous and attentive to our needs. The place was full but not chaotic, had to wait for 30 minutes but it was worth it. Many families dinning in, so the ambiance was nice. Definitely we will be back! ”
“ we went as a family to Di Fara in Cary during the Xmas break. Was busy but we made a reservation in the heated igloo tent in their outdoor area, which we paid extra for. Staffers are friendly. Pizza's understandably take a while (maybe 20 mins). We got a white pie (circular) and a sicilian sqaure pie. The white was good, decent undercarriage, thin crust. The sicilian was not so great, soggy and inconsistent depending on if you got an end or middle. Apps are good - the garlic knots and meatballs Yes they are using the Di Fara Midwood name. (RIP to the old man) but as a guy born and raised in the pizza neighborhoods of Brooklyn, I found this place in Cary, NC not terrible. Parking can be a pain ”
“ Amazing pizza in the downtown Cary area! We got here early on a weekend night and there was a small wait to eat inside, but no wait for outside. Bar seating inside is first come, first served. We waited about 10 minutes until a table was ready inside. My husband and I ordered a chaos pizza with garlic knots. The restaurant boasts that it's New York style pizza and I will say it tastes authentic. The whole meal was delicious and we had leftovers for another meal for us both. Service was kind and quick. The place is super casual and can get busy, so plan accordingly if you have plans post-eating. There is not a lot of parking in front of the restaurant, so you may need to look elsewhere if it's super busy. ”
“ Stopped in because I needed a meal and pizza was being craved. I'm so glad I stopped. The pizza here is delicious. And as a NY'er I can say this is the best pizza I've had in NC compared to my NY pizza. If I had capacity for more than one slice you can betcha I would have had two! I decided to enjoy the drink of the month and I can say they made it perfectly. I'm coming back, bringing my NY boyfriend and we will see how impressed he is. But this is the first place I even have considered bringing him as he is a true pizza from the city man and if this impresses him then this place will win the award from me for best pizza in Cary NC. I came before dinner hour so it was quiet and I was served quickly (sat at the bar). It was quiet and I enjoyed my meal break immensely. I am coming back!!!! ”
