Joe Mommas Grille & Stone

We got a flyer on our door a couple of days ago. All the times I’ve driven past this place, there has never seemed to be a large crowd in there so I always assumed the worst and maybe I was right because apparently it’s «Under New Management» now. I finally succumbed to the picture of chilli cheese fries and went there yesterday to try it out. It wasn’t teeming with people probably because it was close to shutting down. I got the chili cheese fries and a slice of pizza, still don’t know what type of pizza it was. The lady in there was very friendly and conversational (got my stuff to go), unlike some of that customer service you get at some of these places nearby. The food is very reasonably priced, I paid less than $ 10 for something I would expect to pay $ 15 at a chain restaurant. The full size pizza prices seemed a bit high but after tasting the one slice which I bought, I would pay that in an instant. THIS IS THE BEST PIZZA I“VE EVER HAD IN MY WHOLE LIFE!!! I thought Dominos had transformed the pizza industry with their new crust but I guess that’s probably because I had never tasted the real thing. I guess it’s like comparing a Whopper to a Bobby Flay burger, try it once and you’ll understand what I mean!

I order a 8 inch hot veggie sub, side order fries and water.
When I got the sub I noticed that most of the sub was the bread. I still wanted to give it a chance and tried the sub. Well the sub was pretty grease to be hot grilled veggies with a light amount of cheese. The veggies were paper thin, really paper thin cut. I shared my thoughts with the owner or staff members and a woman told me to calm down. I wasn’t yelling. I advised that the sub is basically bread. They advices that you didn’t get meat so that’s the amount of veggies you get. Really my veggie sub is the same price as the meat subs. You would think they would pack the sub with veggies as they do with the meats. They also stated the this sub shop is New York style, wrong. I have visited New York and the food is always great and lots of it. Well as I left the woman yield something at me that i don’t get. Well they don’t like customer feed back. The price was $ 10.55 also this is my first time review.

considering we are easy driving distance to Luigi’s and almost walking distance to Milano’s — you would think these guys would put more effort into keeping the pizza up to NY Pizza standards. But they didnt, or dont. it was a stiff 2 slices that I got the other day. so yeah I have had better — IN STEEL CREEK I’ve had better.

Very disappointed! I got the cheese steak sandwich 3 days ago and it was great! So I ordered 2 more today And it was terrible! Bread old and no flavor on the meat or barely any cheese. So I called to give them a chance to fix it and they just totally ignored me! Too bad since we order out all the time…

Love love love this place. Best cheesesteaks in Charlotte coming from a life long Long Island, NY native.

Came here last night after hearing about it from a few people. I can say I have the same raving review they gave. The pizza was just pizza. Nothin special. Standard size slice. I just find it ehhh. They are friendly so that’s a plus.

I saw a sign outside the restaurant, it said (PHILLY CHEESE STEAK LUNCH SPECIAL $ 4.99)
The other sign says (Pizza by the slice $ 1.50).
I went in and ordered the Philly and she charged $ 9.99. I thought maybe it was a mistake but, she said the «lunch special» is a salad!!! BAIT AND SWITCH!!! I should have left :/​
I ordered two slices of pizza and was charged $ 5.00, when I asked why, she said its only $ 1.50 after 5Pm. Again BAIT AND SWITCH. The very fine print on the sign says «after 5». Why didn’t I leave!!! The Lady, may I add just walked in with me from outside, never washed her hands was angry because I questioned the price. I saw a picture near the register it was hamburger and fries, I ordered it add bacon. Then because all of the bait and switch I asked if the burger I ordered looked anything like the picture. She said and I quote what you see in the picture is different from what I see.
The food: burger dry, bun stale, no mayo, pizza ok and Philly just ok.
They tried to charge me for Mayo!!!
NEVER GOING BACK! Waisted my money!!!

We ordered bacon cheese burger, chicken philly and chilli cheese fries. Everything was super delicious the chilli cheese fries are to die for. Wasn’t expecting the to taste good but was very surprised of how good it was.

Great spot for lunch! A huge selection to choose from & great deals! These guys are quick and the food is delicious!
Best tip about this place: the store-​front looks small, but they have a big area with tables and seats inside.

Really good, little Mediterranean place next to Pinky’s nails in a strip mall. They do typical lunch stuff, gyros, pizza, calzones and salads. Always fresh and satisfying. Order at the counter, pay, get a number and go sit in the dining room. They will bring it to you. Self service soda, yay as much diet coke as I can drink! Grilled chicken salad was yummy, nothing fancy but delicious. Staff is efficient and nice (could be a family run business?). Tables are clean, a little on the worn out side but nothing offensive. Great place to hide from the heat and not have fast food in Steele Creek area.

Best pizza I have had in a long time!!! Service is always great. I love the ny style pizza and the cheese steak sandwhiches as well. They also mls homemade ranch like you find in the north. We have only lived here for 3 months and this is our go to place for a quick bite or pizza! Highly recommend.

Authentic NY style (jersey) pizza. Honestly the best in town. It’s a locally run business by the guy who moved here 20 years ago! Thin slices made from whole wheat and fresh mozzarella.
If you like this style of pizza then this is the best you will find. Oh BTW the cheesesteaks rock! Fresh bread, good steak, great flavor. I got mine with the fresh diced hot peppers. Just like you would find at the places in Jersey or Philly.
The owner and staff seemed really friendly. Good experience.

Just stopped in for lunch and had an awesome Italian sub. Nice people, good food, good price. I will be back.

I don’t go here much but if I’m craving a sub, I’ll call in an order and pick it up. Good price and quality food. Never dined in but it seems nice enough for a strip-​mall joint.
No shame in being a strip-​mall joint. Not even a little.

With a name like this had to stop for a slice. Tasty.

Really cool staff and their specials are pretty reasonable. Never had more than pizza and subs from them and each time were great.

Smaller portions and food is pretty bland. We got a calzone and chicken cheesesteak. Just not very tasty!

HUGE fan of the food! Everything is really good here. I do wish the atmosphere was a little trendier… it’s such a great local place. HIGHLY recommend!

Great little independent place. The owner is there most days and makes sure everything is to your liking. When in town I try to eat there a few times a month. I don’t deviate on my choices but everything has been great and made to order quickly. They have beer by can or bottle if you want and a very diverse menu. Its hard not to find something you will like.

Joe Mamma’s is a nice little place in the Food Lion shopping center on South Tryon. I’ve eaten take out food from here a couple of times and eaten in as well. They tend towards the greasier/​heartier fare with a focus on Northeastern street cuisine like cheese steak sandwiches, pizza, and calzones. Most recently I had a calzone and it was good. It was very cheesy, slightly greasy, and came with a side of marinara. I left satisfied!
There are also some salad and various sandwich options as well. When you come in you order at the counter and they’ll call your number when the order is ready. They have a small sitting area near the front/​kitchen and a more expansive dining area in an adjoining room — with booths and tables. The staff is friendly enough, though they kind of have some Jersey brusqueness to them.
Expect to pay about $ 10 for a meal — most of the menu items are $ 8 or more. With a drink it’ll be more.
