Worth the Drive 9/29/2009 Reviewer: Jstangl from Murrysville, PA
We ordered a pizza from Cosmos in early September - they weren't delivering that night, but it was well worth the 8 mile drive from Pine Island to pick it up! Excellent pizza.
good pizza 9/28/2009 Reviewer: macca from boston ma
We always get pizza on our last night in Corolla, and, to be truthful, have had a hard time finding a good pizza place. We did enjoy this pizza- though I dosuggest to order it well done. I think Cosmo's will be our go to place every year.
Pizza is ok 9/28/2009 Reviewer: Patti (orangekitty) from Bolingbrook, IL
The wait wasn't too bad for delivery. The sauce was really good on the pizza but the crust leaves a lot to be desired.(I don't care for NY style pizza that much) They were out of the sub sandwich my daughter wanted. Overall it was ok but I would try other pizza places next time.
Great Pie 7/5/2009 Reviewer: Katie from Dublin, Ohio
Call ahead and pick it up at lunchtime or midafternoon, then reheat at your house for dinner. No wait, and you eat when the kids are hungry! It is pricier than home, but compared to Disneyworld, it's a bargain!
adding to below review 6/8/2009 Reviewer: Anonymous from Somewhere in Cyberspace
We were there in off season and still total time from start to finish on LUNCH was over 2 hours. There was absolutely no reason.
If it weren't for the price and the wait, they'd get more stars! 6/8/2009 Reviewer: Kimmber from Toms River, NJ
The pizza was definitely the best we've tried on the OBX. My problem came in when we were the ONLY people there, 10 of us, and it took almost an hour to get 3 pies. There was just no reasoning for it. It took 30 minutes to get sodas. The price was $100 for 3 pies and drinks, insane. Tasted good, but with the wait and the cost, will not go back. I'll take DiGiornio on the OBX and eat real pizza back home.
BEST pizza on the beach! 3/10/2007 Reviewer: Corey from North Canton, OH
Beware, waits for this pizza (esp on the popular nights) can take 2 to 4 hours they are THAT popular. Don't go and order from someone else because trust me, it won't be worth it. Great pizza, HUGE portions and friendly staff can all be found at Cosmo's.
Best pizza in the area 11/20/2006 Reviewer: Tim-OBX from KDH, NC
Great for lunch too. Stop in for a slice. Great pizza
Under New Management 8/18/2006 Reviewer: Sal from Reinholds, PA
Pizza was always good. Now it's very good. Best pizza in OBX hands down...
if "tomato pie" from new jersey is so good.... 5/30/2006 Reviewer: Duck Boy from Washington, D.C.
then why dont you just stay up in new jersey and make both of us happy.
Good Pizza, Friendly Staff 7/19/2005 Reviewer: NEW from Athens, GA
I couldn't agree more with Neil and Robert. Grew up on the Jersey shore and was transplanted to the South. Have been looking for great pizza ever since. Cosmo's is good pizza not great but good. The staff is very friendly and makes you feel at home. We had three pizzas with different toppings and all were good. But I'm still looking for that large slice of pizza that you can fold over.
Just Like Home 1/30/2004 Reviewer: Neil from Caldwell, NJ, USA
First of all, Robert is right about New Jersey making a better "Tomato Pie" than New York. Anyone that's ever been to Maruca's in Seaside Heights knows that. On the OBX, Cosmo's is a breath of fresh air. We ate at the Southern Shores location. The owners both come from restaurant families (he's from NY, she's from NJ), and they have done an admirable job of replicating NY/NJ style pizza crust under impossible circumstances. The sauce is actually made out of tomatoes (see my review of Stone Oven "Pizza"), and the toppings are as close to authentic as you will find outside the NY/NJ area.
I hate to sound so chauvanistic about NY/NJ pizza, but hey -- the first pizzeria in America was Lombardi's in Manhattan, so everything else is just a pretender. Cosmo's is well worth a visit.
Clearly the best on Northern Banks..... 11/16/2003 Reviewer: Robert from The Jersey Shore
.....but I can only give it 2 stars based on my pizza rating scale. If it was a OBX Pizza rating I would give it 5 stars. Being from New Jersey, (which, for your information makes a better tomato pie than New York City), I am extremely critical of my pizza and I have found nothing on OBX that comes anywhere close to the pizza made in the Northeast. With that said however, when I need a pizza fix, and that does occur probably two times during our two week stay, I travel up to the Corolla Light Village Shops to Cosmo's. Cosmo makes the best pie on the Northern Banks and maybe the entire OBX IMHO. I have also had thier calzones and strombolis, but would not recommend either if you know what one should taste like. If you don't know, you will probably enjoy them. Bottom line is when you crave a tomato pie "go to Cosmo". The price seems fair for an OBX pizza but wow, a large at Cosmo's is about $4-$6 more than here in New Jersey. The place is small, with few tables and a pleasing but nondescript decor. Beer and wine is available.
