What You'll Get
Until architects recognized its appetizing attributes, pizza was used exclusively to buttress the Tower of Pisa. Delight in delectable structural discoveries with today's Groupon: for $10, you get $20 worth of Mediterranean-inspired cuisine and non-alcoholic drinks at Revolution Pizza & Ale House, located in NoDa, the heart of Charlotte's historic district. If redeemed Sunday–Thursday, this Groupon includes complimentary gelato.
Winner of Charlotte magazine's 2009 Best of the Best Award for pizza, Revolution cooks up a savory menu of made-from-scratch pizza, sandwiches, pastas, and 44 craft beers. Obtain gustatory glee by choosing from more than 45 toppings, such as cracked egg, house-made fresh mozzarella, and pickled banana peppers, for a create-your-own pie ($19 for a large with two toppings), or by running mouth-first through a field of cotton candy. Revolution also offers signature pizzas ($22 large, $10 small), such as the Cheeseburger––a pie camouflaged under ketchup, mustard, ground beef, cheddar cheese, and sliced pickles––and the NoDa––which tantalizes taste buds with pulled pork from Grateful Growers farm, Peppadew peppers, caramelized onions, and balsamic reduction. Entrees include pastas, such as the mushroom fettuccine, which is served with shitake and oyster-mushroom cream sauce, cherry tomatoes, goat cheese, arugula, and a drizzle of truffle oil ($12).
Though this Groupon is not valid for alcohol, guests can wash down meals with Boylan bottled sodas ($1.50 each) or opt to add on from the extensive beer and wine list. Revolution pours a range of regionally made draughts, such as Four Friends Uptown Brown from Charlotte––a coffee-flavored ale with chocolate and nutty malts––and Flying Dog Double Dog ale from Maryland––sporting a deep red color, trimmings of raisin and citrus, and frothy top hat.
