Rudino's Pizza & Grinders Cameron, NC

Ordered today before my lunch break started at 1245. Order was late, it was scheduled to be ready by 1256. Staff never came to explain reason for tardiness. Patrons received orders prior to me that were seated at bar. 3 staff members unable to assist. Food finally came out at 1317. Do better!!

Been here a few times. The pizza is fine. This time I ordered a calzone and Greek salad. The calzone was mostly mozzarella with the thinnestttttt spread of ricotta, and sauce IN IT. No!! NO! N! O! This is a calzone-shaped stromboli. A REAL calzone is heavy on the ricotta, maybe half the mozzarella, and NO SAUCE INSIDE. And don't serve it cut into sticks. The "Greek" salad was a regular salad with feta on it. Who puts green bell peppers and regular black olives on a Greek salad??? Tomato, cucumber, feta, and kalamata olives belong on it. Disappointed. Will be sticking to what we know if we go back.

Asked for well done, pie came out on point. Good sauce and I like the cut. Service was good and fast, cool atmosphere to watch games and have a couple drinks. Not pictured was the grandmas pie, wasn’t impressed with that one. Coming from Jersey, this place did not disappoint. Probably one of the better local pizzas around. Recommend for sure

3 stars and only because the server Kim saved the experience! Let me start by saying I have visited here a lot and even more so in southern pines. Tonight will be my last time coming to Cameron! All I wanted was crispy wings I emphasized crispy because the wings are huge so they come out and I tried to make sure it wasn’t just one wing but opening them they were soggy and rubbery Kim offered to bring them back but I didn’t want to be that guest. But upon them being all that way I agreed as she insisted it was ok. Well let me tell you as the table outside the kitchen and hearing all they had to say is the exact reason I did not want to send them back! I always tip good and never complain so I won’t ever spend my hard earned money to be talked about again there. I would have told the manage

Rudino’s Pizza and Grinders has a lot going for it in terms of atmosphere and service. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the restaurant itself was clean and well kept, definitely a comfortable place to grab a bite. However, the food didn’t quite live up to expectations. The pizza was unfortunately pretty underwhelming, lacking flavor and mostly just triangled shaped bread with sauce and cheese. The Ziti was not that great. The Grinders, on the other hand, were solid and definitely the highlight of the meal. As for the cannoli, it was just “eh”—not bad, but not something I’d go out of my way to order again. Overall, it’s a decent spot with great service, but the food could use a bit of a boost.
