JOE'S PIZZA – Restaurant

A family-run pizzeria on S McCall Road that has been feeding Port Charlotte for two decades, doing New York-style pies the thin-crust way. The counter menu runs to garlic knots, mozzarella sticks, salads and Italian-style meatball subs alongside the pizza, with takeout and delivery covering most of the business. Regulars single out the crust — properly thin, properly crisp at the edge — and the fact that it has stayed consistent year after year under the same owners. A neighbourhood slice shop that never needed to be anything else.
