Andolini’s Pizza

The last couple of times I have eaten here I’ve ordered take out but I finally got around to dining in the other night. You can get two slices of cheese pizza and a draft PBR (or fountain soda) for only $ 7! Delicious pizza and cold beer — not much more you can ask for in a pizza joint!
It’s got a good atmosphere going on but there weren’t very many other tables while we were there. But it was a rainy weekday night, so maybe not their typical dinner crowd. They also have a great outdoor patio/​dining area but considering the rain we couldn’t take advantage of it. There isn’t «table service» — you walk up to the counter and order what you’d like and then they bring it out to you. But very conveniently they have all of the typical pizza condiments on each table so you don’t have to walk back over to ask for parmesan cheese or anything!
As we were leaving I realized they have a drive through lane of sorts which I imagine can be used if you order take out — need to confirm this but would definitely be useful in the future!

Have not been in area that long but mostly like there pizza.
Few weeks ago, they added a topping to already cooked slice of pizza, end result, bottom burned.
Then this past Friday night picked up a large pie, this one burned on bottom too.
I’m hoping this burned thing is not a trend, because otherwise it is excellent pizza.

Good crisp on the crust. I prefer pizzas with a little more crisp than chewiness. Sauce is flavorful and seasoned perfectly. Crust also has a good amount of saltiness. Fresh toppings, not canned.

It’s been several years since my initial review. I stated then that I’d return to re-​evaluate my 3-​start rating after a few more visits. Well…6−7 years later and Andolini’s on Coleman is still our go-​to pizza. I am definitely a fan, so I’m finally getting around to bumping them into 4-​star status.
I really like the redesign from last year. It’s not a drastic change, but the interior feels much more inviting. My take-​out order got messed up but they were very quick to remedy it. Good amount of toppings. We returned for lunch, a couple weeks later. Had an Alfredo slice and the White special. Both really good. A couple weeks after that, back again for dinner on the deck. Enjoyed being under the beautiful oak tree and the colorful lights.

Great pizza great great service. Some of the best pizza I’ve had outside of NY C. Has a decent beer selection.

I come here all the time for lunch since I work just down the street. I like that they offer most of their specialty pizzas as slices all day everyday. The Greek slice is by far my favorite. It has tomatoes, onion, banana peppers, black olives, and feta cheese. Andolini’s is cheap, easy, delicious, my favorite pizza joint.

Andolini’s is by far my friends and my favorite pizza place in the Charleston area. We loved it when it was downtown (and miss it) and are now willing to drive all the way off the peninsula to get it. The pizzas are huge, and the calzones are delicious.

Our first place to eat every time we visit Charleston. Great casual atmosphere, amazing Greek salad and pizza is thin, crispy and tasty! Love the Almost Hawaiian pizza.

The food was good and plenty of it. A good place to bring the family out for pizza. Some of the staff seems very attentive (young cook for example) while others seem to know you are not a local and don’t seem less interested

One of my favorite places to get the closest to new York style pizza. I get the pepperoni Italian sausage pie every time and love it. Service is sometimes a bit slow but the pizza is deff worth the wait!

Not bad for Charlestown
Nice family environment NY style pizza
Can add s multitude of toppings to a giant slice
Sauce is very average no pop or zing to sauce
Crust ok but nothing unique or flavorful
Worth the stop if you must have pizza otherwise wait to you are back in NY Chicago etc

Awesome service and even better food!!! A definite most have in Charleston! Best pizza I’ve ever had.

Always friendly and polite, food is great. Annie, the GM is a delight. Dog friendly outside seating. My Update… Third time here. Brought us the wrong pizza. Took the slices off of our plate and put them back with the pizza and delivered them to another table. Scary

We had a huge group (30+) and they were so accommodating! The pizza is good (traditional thin crust) and there are tons of options. Salads are delicious!

Andolini’s Pizza is the very best there is… have never tasted a better pie… Crave the white pie! I can see why Andolini’s is voted the BEST in Charleston… And this is from a person who grew up in Chicago… make Andolini’s a must if you are in the greater Charleston area! An extra special treat… watching Annie throw a crust!

Some of the best pizza and marinara sauce I have ever had. The atmosphere is pretty awesome. Me and my husband really love this place.

I really like Andolini’s Pizza. I haven’t been back since the renovations but I’ll update my review once I do.
As I remember it, it’s a no-​frills pizza joint. You might not get the greatest service, you might not have this warm and fuzzy feeling about the atmosphere but you’ll come away having had a good meal.
I’ve done take-​out and dined in — always a positive experience. I’m looking forward to my next pizza from Andolini’s!

Stopped by for lunch, they have just remodeled the place and it has some really cool art, super clean too, the guy behind counter said the replaced all the ovens and new management staff. I had the spinach salad, awesome, it has a bacon feta dressing, yum, quick and friendly service and low priced for Mt Pleasant

Andolini’s defines the dive pizza bar. Expect to see this place packed with families with small children, any night of the week. Nevertheless, I love it here. Great beers on tap, cheap wine, and decent pizza. My favorite is the spicy. Always pair it with a Greek salad. Best to come when its nice out to enjoy their great patio area.

Nostalgia factors into this experience. Andolini’s is part of Charleston’s history. Before food here got real, we had cheap pizza and beer. Any CofC grad in the 1990’s to 2000’s can tell you a story about this place. We were starving and this place fed us. The downtown location has since closed.
The Mount Pleasant branch has exactly the same food. Pizza by the slice, burnt to a crisp. Toppings haphazardly placed on top and not warmed through properly. Disgusting but for some reason, we keep going back. Nostalgia. Reliving those college years?
One of my favorite bouts of food poisoning was due to a slice of meatball pizza here. Between episodes of projectile vomiting, I called to let them know «the meatballs have turned, man.» «Thanks for letting us know!» «No, thank you! I have not been a size 0 since middle school.»
That was 3 years ago. Last month, I went back again, for the memories. The chianti served in a highball glass, the veggie slice with cold olives on top of a graphite crust, the sticky vinyl booths. As I picked at the inedible slice, I said my goodbyes. Some establishments and memories are just not good enough for what Charleston has become.
