10. Black Bear Pizza

Everyone has their preference for pizza styles of course. Black Bear Pizza sits somewhere in the middle range between large diameter/slice thinner crust not so loaded up NY style that you can fold and pickup to eat and thick crust styles with smaller more loaded up slices that you are more likely to go at with a fork. Excellent tasting crust baked to have a just right crispness on the bottom, great sauce flavor, and generous ingredients matches my favorite Pizza style. Very quick preparation. We are about 10 mins away, and our order is often ready even if we head over soon after ordering. They may have some crunch times were an order may take longer but they will let you know about that when you order. I think they can deliver, but we always pick it up ourselves. You don't even need to get out of your car - they have a pickup window. They have tables as well in case you want to eat there. Everyone always gets excited when we plan to order a pizza from Black Bear, and we rarely have any left over. Located at the northwest corner at Sweeten Creek Rd and Mills Gap Rd, in a small store and gas station complex.
9. Angelo's Pizza

Owned by a neighbor of mine, I love a little late night trip here for take out pie. He's a true Italian and the love is evident in the pie. No disappointments in my book! Crispy, gooey and heavenly. What more could one ask for in a pie?

Good bread sticks. Italian dressing tasted like kraft ( I thought they might make it). Plain, but good pasta sauce. A great meatball sub. We shall return. They have a deal on groupon right now.

Iâve eaten here many times before and it was always fine but my experience this evening was so horrible that I wonât be coming back. I visited this evening with my husband and our two year old. We placed our order of two pizzas and an appetizer. Appetizer came out fairly quickly but that was the only thing that went well. We waited over 30 minutes and no sign of our pizzas. Our waiter would swing by and drop off drink refills for my husband but no apologies or updates on our food. Finally he comes by and brings us the CHECK and tells us itâs no rush. We hadnât even had our dinner yet. My husband flags him down to tell him as much and he doesnât apologize or even make any sort of indication heâs concerned that itâs been so long and we havenât gotten our food. He goes back about his business. Another ten minutes pass and still no food. I flag our waiter down again to ask when we might expect it and he acted sort of annoyed and said he thought someone mentioned our table but he wasnât sure and he would check on it. Another 5-10 minutes pass and our food finally comes out. My pizza was lukewarm at best and had clearly just been sitting around for a while. My husbandâs pizza was somehow hot so I donât even know what was going on with that. At that point I had waited so long for my food and was so annoyed that I wasnât even that hungry, and definitely not hungry enough to eat a lukewarm pizza. I didnât even bother complaining about it or asking for them to heat it up because I didnât trust that we wouldnât be waiting almost another hour and I just wanted to leave at at point. Our waiter finally comes back and asks if we wanted a box. No inquiry about if our meal was good, which is odd considering the fact that I had basically an uneaten pizza in front of me. No apologies for our food taking a long. This was honestly the worst service and worst restaurant experience I have ever had and I can say that I will not be eating here again.

I had not been back to this Olive Garden for 2 years, but was again impressed. The lunch menu is very reasonable. The never-ending salad is wonderful. The never-ending soup was wonderful, had 2 bowls. The wait staff was very friendly. Convenient to interstate and local traffic. You won't be disappointed!

We love the Carrabas in Houston but this was not as good. I ordered spicy pasta with scallops & shrimp, & the shrimp had a funny taste so I didnât eat it. The scallops were delicious. My husband ordered the salmon & it was greasy. Service was slow

East asheville blaze not in tripadvisor but have to let management know. We have been to the new east asheville location now twice. First time both my wife and my pizza was hard burned. Whike i appreciate the offer when we came to pickup to remake our pizzas we didnt have time to do so. We ended up eating around the burn and it was ok.Came back today and the staff is not ready for any volume. Shoukd never take 1 hour at a blaze pizza to get your pizza. Customers were notably standing aroundnfrusterated and many were wanting their money back. If we had not already paid we woukd have walked out.Managers at this new location need to traikpn there staff and get. Handle on worming in a fast pace. While the pizza prep side was doing very well and friendly the folks cooking and handing out pizzas were deer in a headlight froze. It was such a state of chaos it was not funny. Imagine the i love Lucy episode with the chocolate candies and they accellerated the belt. That is what happened here. There is only 1 oven there needs to be 2. There was easily 4x to 5x the pies waiting than the oven and staff can handle and there was no more room to place either prepped pizzas nor cooked ones. . Pizzas were beginning to be burned as there was nowhere to set it. Need to have more order in the cooking and dissemenation process was a major cluster and tge 2 primary folks dealing with the pizza handouts were so overwhelmed one of them was freezing in place truly confused with no guidance. Managers should be experienced in handling the flow and training their staff to be able to work effecient and under control.Please ensure this information gets to the correct group and staff. If they do not get this straight this location will indeed fail.

First time here, me and my husband were driving around Asheville trying to find a restaurant we hadn't been to yet. This was absolutely delicious. Ordered the eggplant rolatini and truffle mushroom ravioli, simple and clean and flavorful. Fast and courteous service, didnt feel like the waiter was hovering. Highly recommended for anyone traveling or local. Definitely a new favorite

We stopped here based on trip advisor reviews. We were staying in Hendersonville and came to Arden shopping. We had pizza and a sub. Both were great. Service was good. Place was busy at 2pm on a Saturday afternoon, which is a good sign. The vibe is very casual.
