Di Fara Pizza Tavern

The best pizza in the Carolina's by far Such amazing flavor due to fresh high quality ingredients and perfect dough and always perfectly cooked We had a pepperoni pie and ate both dinner and lunch the next day and it' was as good the next day So lucky to have this pizzeria here in Cary It will blow your mind if you haven't tried it yet 10 stars in my book

Visited this place yesterday and was left very, very dissapointed. The service was ok. They did not resolve the issues we had not did they offer to try and resolve the matter. They just sheepishly shrugged their shoulders.Food was meh. I have been to NYC and had amazing thin crust pizza. This was cardboard with too much sauce, not enough cheese. Yes I am from the south and I do know what good pizza looks and tastes like.OK on to the real issue and not just tastes in thin crust pizza. My party of 7 ordered a couple of slices and my kids ordered 1 slice of cheese each. Food came to table in parts. 3 or 4 slices every 5 minutes. My kids slices never appeared. When asked the server said that they had forgotten and would get the kids slices out right away. after 5 minutes we asked again and were told they had to make new house pizza and the wait would be 10 minutes. I gave kids my slices. We asked to speak to manager but were informed she was too busy running front of the house. I have over 20 years experience in the restuarant industry and know a blow off when I hear it. No one offered to resolve missing slices or make our experience any better. Kids went home hungry and we went home frustrated.Manager is a complete coward, If you can't muster the courage to deal with people dont run a restaurant Go home and peddle your cardboard with sauce there.

The same ownership as the Di Fara's in NYC, which has consistently been voted by pizza critics as the Best Pizza in NYC for decades.NY style pizza by the slice. The best in the Triangle. I've tried a few other places, and this is the best in this area. The slice was thin and crusty. I like their fresh mozzarella cheese and generous basil garnish on the vegetarian slice.

Stopped in because I needed a meal and pizza was being craved. I'm so glad I stopped. The pizza here is delicious. And as a NY'er I can say this is the best pizza I've had in NC compared to my NY pizza. If I had capacity for more than one slice you can betcha I would have had two! I decided to enjoy the drink of the month and I can say they made it perfectly. I'm coming back, bringing my NY boyfriend and we will see how impressed he is. But this is the first place I even have considered bringing him as he is a true pizza from the city man and if this impresses him then this place will win the award from me for best pizza in Cary NC. I came before dinner hour so it was quiet and I was served quickly (sat at the bar). It was quiet and I enjoyed my meal break immensely. I am coming back!!!!

Service was excellent! Pizza needs more flavor in the sauce. It was too bland. Needs more garlic and oregano to help the sauce out. Half the pizza crust was burnt other half was fine.

Great lunch spot! Pizza was NY style thin crust. Sauce, cheese and basil were all very fresh and tasty.

Pizza crust was thin and crispy. Easy to fold. I found the sauce on the sweeter side, it complimented the basil on the pepperoni slice. The white slice was creamy and bright in uneven bites. Seating is available outside on a patio with menus available on corn hole bags. 3 large outside tv's and patio lights. Friendly service on the slower side. Great location downtown Cary.

Just popped in for a quick snack and ordered a pizza slice. It was the classic with sausage, peppers, onions and mushrooms. It was excellent and the perfect size. The crust was on the thinner side but not crispy thin. The pizza was very good and service was too.

Unlike its Avenue J in Brooklyn namesake, this location of Di Fara's in Cary is not a hole in the wall pizzeria. It's a nice tavern restaurant that offers seating at the bar, in the dining area and outside in igloos for the winter. Now for the pizza. We finally found the NY / Brooklyn style pizza here in NC that we have been searching for, for YEARS!! We have found some okay pizza but this is almost like the pizza at the original location in Brooklyn that I've been to quite a number of times. We went with the Chaos pie and a Sicilian slice that we spit. From the crust, to the sauce, to the cheese and toppings, it's was great!! The pizza was cooked perfectly and was delicious. They only offer four pie types,calzone, garlic knots and meatballs on the menu. Which is fine. Pizza should be kept simple in my opinion. The service though was slow. Granted they were busy. We waited forty-five minutes for a table while we sat at the bar. It took another forty-five minutes for the pizza to come out after ordering. From what I saw it was non stop in that kitchen and it was a Friday night so that's understandable. Parking here is rough though. The restaurant is in a small strip mall in the downtown area and the street abuts the rail line so on street parking can be difficult. I found a spot across the street in the lot for the train station.

Getting a little out of control on prices. Asking me for a credit card ahead of time to order pizza. I'm in my 60s and they do that at night clubs. Are people really running out on their tabs. Pizza is good but not worth 35 a pie. Are we in NY or Cary?
