I've been in Clayton for about 2 yrs now and I have to say out of all the pizza I have had. This bar far is the best. This will be my goto spot. My first time going but want be my last. The pizza was perfect in every way. So cheesy with that mozzarella, fresh ingredients. I'm hooked, it's a must try!
Chris H.
Most definitely the best Italian food I've had in NC so far.... and I've lived here 30 years. From the phenomenal customer service to the amazing food, my entire visit would get 10 stars if I could give them!
Devin V.
Ohhhhh man, the food here is absolutely INCREDIBLE! Everything is prepped fresh daily, and you can definitely tell. My fiance and I decided to check La Cucina out at the recommendation of my coworker, and we will absolutely be coming back a LOT! They offer catering, too, which will absolutely come in handy for the wedding next year.

Awesome place! Their pizza is phenomenal and we have tried many other items on their menu, everything here is great! Also the owner is on site which is really nice, love supporting a family business. Update 3-13-21: JUST HAD ANOTHER GREAT MEAL! Ordered pasta, stromboli, calzones and desserts! They have the best cheesecake, first time we have ordered that. Food was delicious and service was friendly.

If you want some real Italian cuisine, this is the place to go! No joke. Everything is homemade and absolutely delicious!! I encourage you to try them out. You will not regret it!
Kimberly G.
Delicious! Our first order today will have us going back on the regular. Very friendly staff. Reasonable price compared to other pizza joints. We loooove the cheese bread, which reminded us of cheese sticks from our home 800 miles away! The pizza was perfectly cooked, crispy with lots of golden cheese and crisp pepperoni! Looking forward to more meals with LCI! 💜
