| - The disclaimer is in the name of the restaurant. This isn't the most authentic New York style pizza you've ever eaten, it's "fusion." They offer options that take combinations like pear, Gorgonzola, and candied walnuts and put them on pizza. That said, I didn't find their ready-to-order options that adventurous or novel, but they do have a "make type own" column that looked promising.
I ordered the steak, Gorgonzola, peppers, and onions pizza and the sausage, peppers, onions, and chili flakes pizza. I was hungry and they were tasty, but more like flatbread than what I consider pizza. The steak version, especially tasted more like an open face steak sandwich.
The one differentiating feature for Pizza Fusion is that they offer choices like organic, gluten free, vegan, and so on. So, if you're going with someone who's on a special diet, they may have options, but if you're not, it's good, but there are better pizzas to be had in Charlotte.
Overall, if it was a little less pricey, I would throw it in my "visiting the Metropolitan" rotation, but at $18-29 for a large (which they call an xl), I could almost just go eat at one of the sit down restaurants around the corner. Maybe if I needed to feed 4 people, it would be more cost effective, but to me, that's just $15 of leftovers.
