What can we sya about Frank's Pizza? It is the second best pizza restaurant in the Wilmington area, it's been around for forever, and it's family owned and operated. Located in Carolina Beach, in the center of the boardwalk area, Frank's is a staple of CB residents, tourists, and Wilmingtonians.
Sauce: The sauce tastes really fresh and is really tomatoey.
Cheese: Frank's puts a lot of cheese on and it is high grade stuff. They top it off with a lot of seasoning as well, which really adds to the pie.
Crust: The undercrust is super thin, but not burnt. The outer crust is really great as well. Sometimes, bubbles will pop up in the crust and they have had this problem for a few years. They are working on correcting it, and i see them popping the bubbles every now and then during the baking process. The last few pizzas i have had have not had many bubbles and have been really good.
Price: The price is really good considering that you are right on the beach. A large cheese will set you back about $13.00
Atmosphere: The attitude is laid back. People come in right off the beach and get slices. It is air conditioned, and the smell is intoxicating. The seating is table and chairs that run along the one side of the building.
Drawbacks: Bubbles in the crust occaionally.

Fat Tony's
Fat Tony's is definitely one of the best pizza places in Wilmington. It probably ranks in my top three favorites. The pizza is so well rounded, every part of the pizza is spot on when it comes to NY style pizza. They have two locations, one is downtown on Front St. and the other is on racine drive near UNCW. They don't just do pizza either, they have classic Italian dishes like lasagna that they do really well too. They have been around for years and are still making great pies.
Sauce: The sauce is the perfect consistency and has a really great flavor. It is seasoned well and an ample amount is put on the pizza.
Cheese: Really good, high quality, stringy cheese. They put a lot on and it has a good amount of grease, which i love.
Crust: The crust is cooked perfectly, it is crispy and thin and still has that NY style "foldability" to it. The crust isn't bland and is easy to pull apart.
Price: The price is a little more than i would like to pay, but it is definitely worth it. It's like $13.99 for a cheese and toppings are $2.00 after that.
Atmosphere: When i was there, it was dimly lit, with a bunch of little lights casting shadows everywhere, very nice. Staff was really friendly and paid a lot of attention to you.
Drawbacks: A little pricy.
