In 1991, Luisa Land decided to bring a little taste of her native Milan to Charlotte when she opened her namesake, Luisa's Brick Oven. The first pizzeria in the area to offer brick oven-style pizzas, the restaurant draws a steady stream of regulars, including families, couples and even soccer teams.

Noted for their thin, crusty pizza, Luisa's also offers a limited number of pasta dishes, salads and calzones. Try their signature pie, Luisa, made with fresh tomatoes, pesto, roasted garlic, ricotta cheese and whole milk mozzarella. And of course, there's always the standard pepperoni and sausage for the traditionalists. A popular hangout for families with children -- kids can even play with the pizza dough -- it's a welcome respite for harried parents. The casual, warm atmosphere makes this a great place for those evenings you just can't bear to cook.

    I lived in Sicily for a time and this is the most authentic Italian pizza I have had since coming back to the states. It's all in how they prepare it with that marvelous sauce, spices and toppings, but the way they cook it in those ovens really makes it GREAT! Whoever posted "horrible service and horrible pizza" did not go to Luisa's. Try it. . .you'll like it!

  • good to take out

    'Tis true about the kid-friendly environment, so those looking for a peaceful or quiet evening out - fahget about. it. It's loud - and just a step down from Chuck E.'s BUT the food is good, really good. Recommended course of action: take out. With Blockbuster right next door by the time you place your order, and pick out a movie, you are good to go. the Mufeletta is a specialty pizza of theirs that is HIGHLY recommend.
