★★★★☆ 4.0 Hunt Blatz · Jan 2026

2026017: My friend, Chuck, and I were traveling back from Hanging Rocks to Charlotte and stopped in Winston-Salem for pizza. Cubano Forno served authentic neapolitan pizzas. I has mushrooms and Chuck had sausage. While these were lovely, the toppings were haphazardly strewn on them so that some slices missed the main ingredients. The facility were the pizzas were made and the benches where we ate have a rustic industrial vibe that is appropriate for the locale - part of the former cigarette factory. Chuck abd I agreed that if we find ourselves back that way and want pizza we would revisit Cugino Forno.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Sarah Scott · Nov 2025

I know people rave about this spot, but honestly I fail to see the hype. The crust is decent, but the cheese is low quality (as noted by a lack of flavor and rubbery texture) and they always manage to fail at properly distributing toppings across the pie. Additionally, each one of the meats I've had as a topping is also just decent, never anything great. It's by no means horrible, but it simply doesn't ever live up to the reviews

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Layla Summers · Mar 2026

Usually the pizza is very good here but this time i was not very impressed. stopped in to order a take out pizza for lunch, first the woman taking my order was not very friendly she was short and too the point. whatever i was just getting take out. the pizza came out very quickly, probably less than 5 minutes. but it did not taste fresh at all, based on how quickly it came out i feel like they just reheated a pizza for me. the crust was burnt and it wasn’t even that warm fresh out of the oven. not sure if ill go back now that i know i could pay $22 for a reheated pizza.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Josh Pagano · Apr 2023

Very spacious. Plenty of both indoor and outdoor seating. Good for all occasions. Food was great... especially the strawberry muffin which was amazing!! However, major drawback is policy that they will not customize your pizza. It must come exactly as described on the menu. We were astonished by the lack of flexibility here. I guess they figure their food is good enough that they can tell people to go elsewhere if they don't like it, which I respect. On the other hand, if you or your loved one has special dietary needs or preferences, you're better off going somewhere else

The pizza was well cooked. My party enjoyed the beer choices. It was busy but the noise level was not bad and the people were there to enjoy the food. There were a variety of customers. Young and older. People bought their children. Very much a good atmosphere.
