About

Bar: Beer & wine

In Raleigh's Five Points neighborhood, Lilly's Pizza has been a local staple since 1994, founded by three punk rockers who started with just takeout and delivery. It's the kind of place where neighbors brought lawn chairs to eat inside the empty dining room, and it evolved into the counter-service spot it is today. Lilly's focuses on handmade pizzas with certified organic ingredients, and they've won best pizza awards over 40 times.

The vibe is casual and dog-friendly, with outdoor seating. They serve beer and wine only. Hours include a split shift most days, so note the 2:30-4:30pm closure. A nearby option for another meal is Mandolin, if you're exploring the area. One reviewer had a negative experience with the Thai pizza and customer service, so it's worth checking your order carefully.

“Inaccurate makers and terrible manger”

I spent $123 on pizza on November 14, 2014. Two of them were Thai-style pizzas, but neither had the curry sauce or ginger. When I called to speak with a manager, the hostess said the manager was busy and asked how she could help. After I explained the issue, she passed the message along to the manager, who claimed to have made the pizzas and insisted the curry sauce was on them. If that's true, then the manager is bad at making pizzas and terrible at customer service because they couldn't even get on the phone like an adult to hear my complaint. I'll never go back. This place earns five points of disappointment.
