We order from this place at least 2-4 times a month. Service at night has slipped drastically. Unless your a guy, or know the waitress forget getting even ok service. Our last take out was so sloppy you could barely pick up your sub.... I've never had to eat my sub w/ a fork. I called back one night, b/c... More

My Family eats at this place about once a week. We love the waitresses the food, & the atmosphere. My daughter loves the attention she gets, plus we never have to worry about running out of anything they are right on top of it. I do have to say the Steak & Cheese Combo (w/ all the fixings) is the... More

This place has been a long term member of the dining scene in the Southport community, and they should be. Their food is well done, they are attentive to customers, their employees are gracious and welcoming. Best part, the prices are reasonable. They really make great pizza! Yes , sir!

Southport, NC is a small beach community and sometimes I like pizza and cheesesteaks . . . .so, this is where I go for my Athenian pizza and a loaded cheesesteak; warm, crispy roll full of steak, onions, mushrooms. I was in there recently and waited a bit for my pizza, so, I asked the waitress and she replied someone... More

Love the pizzas at Famous. The chicken, not so much. Busy with locals, a little slow, but the pizza is fresh and good.

Go where the locals go! GREAT pizza - be sure to ask for it "crispy" if you like thin crust. Wings are small, but very tastey and the blue cheese dressing is to die for! A must visit everytime we are in Oak Island.

The food was ok, nothing out of the ordinary... They brought out my sons lunch at least 15 minutes before the rest of the family. I wouldn't go out of your way for this place.

My family goes to Oak Island every summer and I've eaten at Famous several times over the last 5 or 6 years. This is not a hidden jem or anything particularly amazing. It is your average pizza joint. I recommend the Hawaiian pizza (ham and pineapples) for something different. You can be certain I will be going back again, mainly... More
