A craving for pizza can sometimes be overwhelming – to the point that we have to go get a pizza. If you’re like us, then a craving like the one just described had better be met with more than enough pizza to satisfy the urge… after all, it does heat up nicely if you can’t eat it all! What if you could satisfy that craving without buying the whole pie? We say that’s even better!

Over at Benny Pennello's in the NoDa art district in Charlotte (address below), a single slice of pizza is more than enough to satisfy a serious craving.

Their slice, named The Virginia Slice, is so big it needs two plates just to hold the whole thing! The Virginia Slice, as with the complete pizzas at Bennys, is its own style of pizza and is fiercely similar to the popular New York-style pizza — yet different.
Whether you get one slice or the whole pie, you're sure to be wow'd by how huge, filling, and delicious it is.

Slices start at $4 for cheese and $5 for pepperoni and other single toppings. A whole 28-inch pie runs $38. The 28-inch pizzas are so huge, they don't fit on the table... a good problem to have!
Benny Pennello's always has a special of the month and it's always cleverly named.

The Belusci is topped with hearty portions of ground beef, bacon, french-fried onion rings, and beer cheese. Seen here, the roasted red pepper pesto and a slice of the chicken bacon ranch pizza.
