Circle Pizza and Subs

Hear me out. I'm giving 5 stars because I think it deserves 5 stars. I think my family just made some poor choices and people need to manage their expectations. It's a small restaurant. We (family of 5) arrived when it was empty but it quickly started to fill up. I'm not sure what the situation was or if this is typical but there was only one person waiting tables. Service was faster and friendlier than expected. The woman was very nice, attentive and helpful and looked like she was doing everything right and working as fast as possible. 5/5. Again, it's a small space so that can't be helped. I started to feel a little uncomfortable after a while, but that's more of a personal anxiety issue of mine. Everyone was nice and seemed unbothered by everyone else's presence. There are some cool pictures and wall decor, my son pointed out some of it to me as we chatted waiting for the food. The space is what it is. If you're anxious like me, order it to go and eat on the beach. 5/5 Every pizza I watched get served to surrounding tables looked and smelled amazing! If you come here, order pizza! I also saw a lady with the biggest salad I've ever seen! I have no idea what it was but it was so big I'm not sure how you could eat it on one plate. It looked appealing too, try a salad. We ordered onion rings, fried mushrooms and cheesy bread for appetizers, they were all good according to my family. I only had the bread and onion rings. I'm a huge onion ring fan and these were great! The cheesy bread was really cheesy but the bread looked like it was a sub roll. Either way it tasted fine. My daughter loved her cheese pizza, it looked delicious and was big considering it was intended for one person. All of that 5/5 Unfortunately, I must be honest and say the burgers and fries aren't a great choice. My son immediately noticed his bun was cold. Not a big deal. The burger itself was hot and seemed well seasoned but it was just dry, possibly because it's a smashed patty. Maybe you can ask for a medium burger, I'm not sure and in their defense we didn't ask when we ordered, although we weren't offered a choice. My husband and son loved the fries. They appear to be seasoned fries and they were very crispy. For me they were too crunchy. This is why I gave food 4 stars. One item out of many was underwhelming. Overall it's a great pizza and apps place with a great atmosphere and service. Us not loving a burger at a pizza place doesn't justify leaving a bad review imo. Definitely give them a try but maybe not the burger.

Pizza was delicious, we enjoyed it. The lady that took my order was super super sweet and helpful. I wish I would have gotten her name to give her credit. My family and I will definitely be going again when we visit the area soon. I went on 09-20-2025 about 2pm.

A little hidden gem for a quick bite to eat for after just arriving into town after a 3.5 hour drive. Real lettuce for the salad, perfect size pepperoni pizza, quite tasty and a couple of lovely servers. Friendly staff overall.

This is a wonderful place with extremely kind folk. We wrote $0 for a tip, but left some cash in the tip jar. I do hope the owner or manager saw that and did not think we left her dry. Thank y'all so much for making our trip to Emerald Isle worth it!

I ordered wings from here while I was in town. The wings were good. But like I told my dad it's not really hard to get chicken wings right. He has ate other items from here though since he lives by them and he likes almost all the things he ordered. The ranch they gave me was good also! I'm a stickler for good ranch. The girl who took my order was nice and whomever took my payment when I got there was nice. Getting 10 wings for $8 is definitely a deal!! This is a picture after I had ate some of the wings. Hahaha. These are the BBQ ones.

We got delivery, so I can't tell you about the atmosphere. The wait was a little long, but when we got the pizza it was understandable and worth the wait. Two thumbs up
