The Great Misteak (4/5): One of the rotating specials. This is a philly cheese steak inspired pizza that was a little lacking in flavor (needed some sauce) and a little light on meat. Still good though!Garlic Knots (4/5): VERY garlicky which was great. Also very dense and doughy.

This pizza spot always smell really good when I walk pass it. Finally I tried it.I really enjoyed the buffalo pizza here! The Philly not so much, as it didn't have much meat on there and was dry. Service was fast as I got take out.It's a chill spot not too many seats.I will stop by for another buffalo pizza!

We ordered Zambies late a few nights back after a concert and were super excited to give it a try. Prices are a little high but the size of these slices and flavor was well worth it! We ordered 3 slices and the dessert knots. The rotating slice was the Great Misteak which was basically a Philly steak on pizza, but was pretty tasty. We got the Sleeping Beauty which had a cherry pepper base, topped with red peppers and onions and a balsamic drizzle. This one surprised me with how freaking good it was. I was skeptical at first, but once I bit into that crispy crust I knew we made a good choice. The last slice we got was of course a pepperoni. I looooove a pepperoni pizza that has the little cup pepperonis on it and this was loaded with them. Just an overall great slice. We got the pookie sauce and ranch to dip as well. Both were great and perfect for the crust to dip at the end. The dessert knots were so so. We wished they had a little more of the maple cinnamon sugar and maybe had it swirled throughout the knots because it was unfortunately just a ball of dough on the inside. We ended up just pulling them apart and dipping them in the extra icing. Would definitely recommend stopping by or ordering because these slices will not disappoint

The slices are hugeeee, staff is nice, pizza is alright. You get a nice size slice so definitely will fill you up on 1-2 depending on how hungry you are. The place is quaint, a few counter stools, I believe no more than give or take 4 stools in the whole place so not a place to really sit & eat more so grab & go. Pizza is alright. I'm from up north & used to New York pizza and it doesn't compare, but it's not bad. I wouldn't come here looking for NY style pizza but the specialty pizzas are nice to try. The buffalo was alright & the Philly cheesesteak was really good. Would be a great touch if they had some type of sauce though, like ranch to dip it in or hot honey to drizzle as the pizza does need a little something extra to give it that flavor

Day trip to Charlotte with our pizza obsessed youngest led us to Zambies. Came with a great recommendation from TikTok. We each had a slice and wow they were all amazing! The slices are HUGE! I love when the slices are reheated to get that crisp crust.Food was fast. We sat at the bar and ate in. There was a steady stream of takeout orders. I would say, if you have a large party, there won't be room. But for the three of us, plenty of room.

Zambies is such a cool vibe - you have to visit and eat in the window seat if you want to experience a great vibe and people watch while you eat your HUGE slice of pizza.The service is great and relatively quick & the pizza is delicious and definitely unforgettable. I've tried a few different flavors here and each time I want to try a new one because of how good they all are.I recommend trying every single flavor they have and to just keep going back for more and more.It's also great as takeout, but definitely try eating in if you can (in the window!!!)

What is better after a night of drinking than a slice of pizza!? The answer is nothing! I am obsessed with Zambies it is just great New York style pizza even if you haven't been drinking! The slices are on the pricier side in my opinion but I still pay for them, so you know its good!

Came to this place to meet some friends and it blew me away. It's not my favorite style of pizza as I prefer it to be thicker but this was an exception. The pizza was thin but crispy so it held its shape and the crust was thick and buttery which was great with their ranch. I got a slice of the Sleeping Beauty pizza and the balsamic vinegar and roasted red pepper made this pizza a game changer. The employees were very sweet and the place is a bit smaller so seating is harder to find but it's very cute.

If you're looking to feed an army, Zambies is the place to go! My bf and I stopped by Zambies on request of his brother after he and his girlfriend ran the Charlotte marathon this past weekend. We needed to feed quite a few people as friends and family were gathering at their apartment in NoDa as an impromptu congratulatory party. My first impression was that Zambies clearly makes HUGE pies as indicated by the size of the boxes in the visible storage overhead. If you're familiar with Benny's, it's pretty similar to that. Zambies does not have a lot of room to sit but they make up for this with a big walk-up to-go window. If you don't want to wait inside or can't for lack of room, the location makes it so you can put in your order and meander around before coming back. While this place might not be great for dine-in, I'd say that this is the only place in Charlotte that is conducive to a "walking slice," like you can get in NYC. And speaking of NYC, Zambies isn't too far off from that of an NYC style pizza. A couple of things to be aware of - Zambies does not do fountain drinks so they will charge you $2.50 for a can of soda. Their pies are also pretty pricey comparable to similar spots like Benny's (2 pies ran us about $105) so I would save this spot for pizza by the slice or if you were trying to feed a lot of people like we were. That's where Zambies loses a star for me.

Great pizza spot in NoDa. The line was long at 1am on a Saturday night but it went quickly. I love that this is quick spot, open til 3am. It's hard to find spots open that late in Charlotte. The menu is simple too which is great. I ordered the cheese pizza and it was HUGE! I had them split it so I could share it. The pizza was really flavorful. The ingredients tasted really fresh and the crust was the perfect texture.
