Pizza Spiga is your typical pizza buffett with a few distinctives. This laid-back Mint Hill establishment has withstood the influx of New Yorkers insisting on their style of pizza. So before you visit, don't think you'll get an authentic NY, Buffalo, or Chicago pizza. And don't even tell me or the fine folks at Spiga that that's how pizza is done elsewhere. Before I get on my soapbox....
Pizza Spiga has a solid buffett: your staples like Pepporoni, Cheese, Speciality, and pastas. The salads are good, not just iceberg lettuce and ranch. They actually have good salad toppings. The bread sticks put Little Ceasar's to shame and the marinara actually tastes homemade.
The menu is worth checking out as well. I love to get the meatball marinara. Everything (minus the bread) tastes homemade. And they layer it with a slab of provolone cheese. I usually get this sub with onion rings. And I wonder why I'm single.
I would have given it more stars, but there are so many pizza options these days that are as attractive. Still if you want a bust-your-gut buffett for $7 that is a step up from most pizza chains, Spiga is a good bet.
