The Dough Shack: Reviews & Ratings

The pizza was good. There wasn't a lot of sauce and the dough was chewy. So if those are your things- you'll love it. The service was friendly and ordering online was easy. We did carry out. I will say I was outraged by the gluten free pizza price- $20 for a 12 inch cheese pizza quickly became $30 with a few toppings. In total we had 3 large (cheese, margarita, meat lovers) and a 12 inch gluten free with 3 toppings and it was $103. I probably wouldn't go back if I was trying to feed a crowd but just for a quick dinner for a couple or the family, I would.

Hands down the best pizza we've had in Outer Banks, I would highly recommend! Here on vacation with 13 family members and we all agreed. Plus as a bonus they have donuts available too!! The maple bacon glaze is phenomenal!

The donuts are SUPER fresh, so soft and really good! There is zero of that "oily" flavor donuts sometimes have. Dare I say, in my opinion, the glazed is better than a KK donut

Highly recommend this place! We ordered a lot of food from here: Southwest egg rolls Buffalo chicken pizza Supreme pizza Gluten Free Hawaiian pizza Chicken Caesar salad Donuts Everything was delicious! The consensus was: their pizzas are really good. & donuts. My husband also loved the egg rolls. The owner is super nice, we ordered 6 donuts and he gave us 12!

This was an extremely small spot with no seating on the inside with donuts, bagels, and pizza on the menu. The service was very friendly and attentive. A dozen donuts ($14.99?) and a slice of bacon and sausage pizza ($3.50?) were ordered. The donuts were all small and extremely light. Regarding the pizza, it was great. It was a white pizza and both meats were a solid touch. The crust also had a slight crisp, which I preferred. Each type I tried is below. Strawberry Frosted - This was tasty, enough of a strawberry flavor. Glazed - This was good, not overly glazed and far from too sweet. Vanilla Icing with Sprinkles - This was my favorite. I really enjoyed the vanilla flavor with the added touch of the sprinkles. Vanilla Icing with Raspberry Glaze - I enjoyed this, but there was not a heavy taste of the glaze. Chocolate Icing with Sprinkles - This was alright, just was not a huge fan of the chocolate. Vanilla Icing with Chocolate & Caramel Glaze - The vanilla icing, but again, there was not a strong taste of the glaze. Will I go back? Yes.
