Wow. The pizza is soooo good. And I have eaten a lot of pizza from around the world. The crust was cooked to perfection, not too doughy, perfect amount of cheese. Very, very happy.

Girls with Dough is a pizzeria and pub located in Wilmington, within the Riverlights community. They offer a variety of handcrafted pizzas and Italian-inspired dishes, known for their fresh ingredients and high-quality dough. The restaurant has a welcoming atmosphere with views of the Cape Fear River. We ordered a plain cheese pizza along with something a little more adventurous. The Ms. Figgy pizza features a combination of fig jam, caramelized onions, gorgonzola cheese, and prosciutto, all finished with a balsamic glaze. This unique flavor profile offers a balance of sweetness from the fig jam and balsamic glaze, savoriness from the prosciutto, and a sharp, creamy tang from the gorgonzola. I will say that the fig jam was a little strong for me but overall the quality of the pizza's was amazing. Our 2 year old sometimes unruly boys were with us and the hostess went above and beyond to find us a spot in the restaurant that was secluded by a TV which she made sure to put on a kid appropriate show on to help entertain them. After awhile sure enough the boys got restless but the beautiful thing about this location is that we were able to pop them in the stroller and take them for a walk around the boardwalk on the waterfront which they enjoyed. I can't wait to come back and try their other menu items including their brunch! Girls with Dough offers a Saturday Brunch which is harder to come by than Sunday Brunch. Cheers to that!

I have been looking for some good pizza and decided to give them a try. I got the NY style and was the best pizza that I have had In Wilmington. The sausage and pepperoni on the pizza was delicious. The cheese and pizza sauce was spot on. I definitely will be going back. I forgot to mention the crust was perfect.

Fourth of July weekend and everywhere they serve seafood is at least a 45 minute wait. Pizza it is! This place had a great modern atmosphere and friendly service. We got a seat right away and it began to fill up quickly. Great for small kids as they have a kid menu with quick turn around for a hangry child. We got the Wild Mushroom pizza with Caesar salad, kids pepperoni pizza and Cosse al Vino. Delicious! Thank you for a great surprise while visiting friends!

Really good pizza, great selection of beer, and friendly staff! We loved our waitress, she was so sweet! It took them a while to get us a table; we were the only people waiting, and there were multiple open tables. We also had to wait longer than I expected to get our pizza, but it was delicious! Other than all the waiting, it was a great experience! I'd go back when I wasn't worried about timing
