My husband and I have been coming here since they opened a few years ago. We have never been disappointed. The pizza is always delicious and has a wonderful crisp crust from the wood fired oven. The prices are always great too!

My son wanted pizza. So I searched and I found this restaurant a short walk from our river front hotel. He is used to your typical pizza place and I wasn't hoping he would like this place. Now it is small so seating is limited but that adds charm to the place. But even though there were people waiting the waitress never rushed us. There are also a few outside tables. My son ordered a bacon pizza and fries covered in mozzarella and bacon. They were both so good. My son so enjoyed his meal. He kept saying how delicious everything was. We will definitely return when in the area.

From the moment you walk in you will see that this business is ran entirely by family member’s. Downtown New Bern is filled with a ton of small businesses, and this one tops the cake for that local pizzeria vibe. They make every bit of food here to order. So if you are in a rush. I highly suggest placing a to go order.

It has been awhile since I have been to a wood burning pizzeria that was worth the time to talk about it. This place is great, relaxed atmosphere, attentive staff, and really good pizza. I kept it simple with pepperoni, salami, and bacon. The ingredients are great quality, the crust was crispy and smoky, the sauce is a balance of flavors and spice, just the right amount of cheese to not take over and evenly proportioned mix of meats. I will definitely be back again before I leave in a couple of weeks.

What a neat little pizzeria just slightly off the beaten path in historic New Bern. Built in what seems to be an old house, the service was good and the food was great. The bruschetta, the pizza, the garlic knots were fantastic. I ordered too much and ate most of it. I find it nearly impossible to find pizza I don’t like, but Savage’s really exceeded my expectations. A great spot, come check it out - you won’t be disappointed.

Visited here for lunch with a church group of senior citizens. We were treated with so much kindness and respect by our young waitress. She put our group in a room to ourselves and provided us excellent service, even though I think she was the only waitress and cashier at the time. They had a special that consisted of two slices of pizza and a beverage for around $7.00. The slices were huge and delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant.

One of the few places with very comfortable outdoor seating. They have amazing lunch deals that make this a regular place to grab lunch. Staff are also super and will remember your order if you're a regular. Best value for your buck for pizza. Heard great things about their stromboli. The cookies they get from a local bakery are divine. I do not recommend their pasta dishes.

If you are looking for Italian style pizza, this is the place. Everything is delicious. Pizza baked the way it should be. Caprese was different and delicious. Service was good. Price could have been cheaper (Pizza is poor man's food) but no higher than anyplace else.

This pizza is the real deal. Thin but soft and flavorful crust, fresh and tangy sauce, and great toppings. We had a Margarita and an Hawaiian. The mozzarella on the Margarita is legit. Our server, Grace, was friendly and on top of things. We were here on a Saturday night during prime dinner hours and they took good care of us. Finally found a pizza place worth coming back to.

It’s hard to put into words how amazing our experience was here. We came into town for a funeral and needed a quick, easy place to eat after a long day of driving with our two year old. Gavin was amazing and took excellent care of us. The food was absolutely delicious. And every single employee plus some of the regulars went out of their way to interact with and be extra kind to our exhausted toddler. We’ll always come back here if we’re in New Bern again. Exceptional experience all the way around. Also, the prices are SUPER reasonable. We had five wine/beers drinks total, an app, and two 10 inch pizzas for around $60.

First time here tonight and though they didn't seem busy, the wait staff was hustling, which made any delays more than acceptable. (Including the ice machine broken, stuff happens) On to the best part... The Stromboli! This isn't a sauceless pizza folded in half like other joints. It's an animal of their own making and it is spectacular. Sliced sausage, not the crumbly kind, plenty of cheese, and a crust that flakes nicely. Sauce on the side and seasoned super well. Well done guys n gals. We'll be coming back. Cheers

Hidden Gem! Stopped today for a pizza! No tv, no music, WONDERFUL!!! Most places are blasting noise so loud you can’t hear! The pizza was so good, I ordered another to go. Been to New Bern 4 x never ate here! This crust was chewy! Fantastic! I ordered the Bavarian pretzels to go too! Lilly, very hard working young lady! Very attentive and prompt! Friendly and smiled when she talk to you. Wonderful place to eat! I highly recommend giving them a try!

Hey Savages Pizza! You are the best! Me and my friend went there last week Monday for the first time. I moved here to NC and have heard a lot of good about this place! Did not disappoint! Grace I think was her name was our server and she was very genuinely nice and very helpful! The other girl that was working up front with her was just as kind and friendly!! Loved it! We got the margarita pizza and it was superb!! Definitely recommend this place for the atmosphere and food! Can’t beat!!!

Had (another) great experience at Savage's. My wife called prior to their opening one day, looking for her favorite pizza for her birthday. They were incredibly helpful and even got the pizza ready before they were supposed to open. Great service isn't gone, it's just harder to find. Thank you Savage's.

Really great find for lunch. We stopped in town on our way home on a road trip looking for lunch. We had a variety of lunch items, and a kid personal pizza, and side Caesar salads. The food was really good. You could tell it was home made and fresh. I love lasagna and theirs did t disappoint. Restaurant was clean, staff super friendly, and reasonably priced menu.

***EDIT*** 10/14/2023 The owner Doug called this morning and apologized profusely. Updated the review to reflect a positive change. 10/13/2023 Placed a phone ahead order was told 35 mins got there 45 mins later to watch the young lady rush around the restaurant and my food ended up on the floor. I can accept things happen. It’s the lack of respect or customer service to apologize. Instead they didn’t acknowledge me at all I had to ask if that was my food that went flying across the floor. Not we are making it right away nothing. I ended up leaving. I figured I’d get a phone call after I walked out… nothing. I’ve tried this place a few times before, this was definitely my last.
