" Had a chance to visit The Rusty Onion for the first time and I must say, I was impressed. The pizza we ordered had an authentic thin crust that reminded me of my trips to Italy. The toppings were fresh and generous. Our server was attentive and made sure we had a great experience. I recommend trying their garlic knots as an appetizer. Can’t wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for The Rusty Onion, but unfortunately, they fell a little flat for me. The pizza was decent, but the crust was a bit soggy for my liking. To add to that, the service was quite slow on a not-so-busy evening. I might give them another try, but I believe there are better options in the area for pizza lovers. " (*Curated Review*)

" The Rusty Onion easily earned a spot in my list of favorite dining spots in Charlotte. The menu offers a variety of options with a somewhat Italian twist, from their stellar pizzas to hearty pastas. I especially appreciated the fresh ingredients, which truly make the difference. I had the chicken alfredo, and it was creamy, delicious, and packed with flavor. The vibe of the place is very friendly, it's one of those joints where you immediately feel at home. I will be telling my friends about this gem. " (*Curated Review*)

" I went out to dinner with family at The Rusty Onion and we had a delightful evening! The atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming, making it a great place to catch up. We ordered a variety of dishes, and the standout for me was definitely the manicotti. It was creamy and satisfying. Our server was also very attentive, which made our experience even better. I will be coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited The Rusty Onion with friends for a casual lunch. While the atmosphere was nice and the staff friendly, I found the pasta to be a bit bland. The garlic knots had potential but needed more seasoning. I might return but possibly for pizza instead of pasta next time. " (*Curated Review*)
