What locals are saying
Tolli's Trattoria carries a four-generation New Haven Italian pedigree to a Johns Island strip mall, and the thin, crispy wood-fired apizza largely justifies the lineage — locals consistently rank it among the better pies in the Charleston area. House-made bread baked each morning, scratch pasta, and Giuseppina Peluso's from-scratch desserts (the butterscotch pecan cheesecake draws repeat mention) signal a kitchen that takes the sourcing seriously. Service pacing draws the most reliable criticism, but the family-run warmth tends to absorb it.
