50 Best Pizza Restaurants in Cincinnati

“Mouthwatering and delicious. Drove 20 minutes just to try this place. We will definitely be back. They only have two small tables outside so plan for take out! Best pizza I’ve had in Cincinnati.“

“I absolutely love everything on the menu! My favorite is the Meat Lasagna. I also enjoy the 'Old World Italy' feel and the friendliness of the staff.“

“I stopped in for a late lunch after a recommendation from a coworker, expecting nothing more than a decent slice of pizza. What I experienced, however, was something truly exceptional.

From the moment I walked in, Jeff, the owner, made me feel welcome. He greeted customers by name, creating an atmosphere that felt more like a gathering of friends than a restaurant. He immediately recognized that I was new, took the time to offer recommendations, and even invited one of his regular customers to share their favorite menu items.

The food was outstanding, but what impressed me most was the warmth and authenticity of the experience. It’s rare to find a place where the owner is so genuinely invested in every customer’s visit. I left full, happy, and genuinely impressed by the inviting, home-like atmosphere.

Jeff and his team have earned a customer for life. I can’t wait to come back and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and even better hospitality.“

“Dan the man with the pizza pan, was awesome in every aspect of professionalism. Fucking great attitude and very friendly. Thanks Dan front the guy who painted the building on the corner.“

“Authentic pizza and pasta. Staff is customer focused and quality minded. You got to get some of this!“

“The food was amazing! Eli’s BBQ and Pesto Plus was the best pizza I’ve had in a very long time! It’s a must eat“

“I have been meaning to stop by since they opened, finally had a chance tonight. Casual atmosphere of a neighborhood place. Warm greeting upon arrival. You order at the counter and the food is brought to your table. I had garlic knots and a small pizza and both were delicious. The pizza was a 10” pie the size of a paper plate. The toppings were fresh and evenly spread over the pie which was perfectly cooked. The crust was the perfect consistency. The pizza really did taste like a traditional pizza I use to have when I was young and we lived next door to a family from Italy. It’s a can’t miss experience, and I will definitely dine here again.“

“As I’m writing this review I’m still in shock! I’m in Cincinnati on business and I was craving Italian. I can’t believe there’s not a line around the block just for the meatballs! My family owned an Italian seafood restaurant in NJ for 26 years and I can say without hesitation the meatballs here are the best west of Arthur Ave in the Bronx! My NJ mind is blown!“

“Today, a friend and I came to Dewey’s for lunch. The waiter came by to inform us that an error had been made in our order and that we would be given our meal for free. We had not even been waiting that long, but that level of customer service is VERY hard to find. Kudos to Dewey’s. We will be back many times!“

“By Far….this is the best pizza I have had in along time. Been ordering from them for a few months now. Never been disappointed. Customer service was incredible when a mistake occurred with our order! Wonderful customer service.“

“Great service, friendly staff and really good pie.“

The pizza was delicious with a great crust, and the salad was crisp and well-dressed. You can really tell they care about the quality of their ingredients here. We will definitely be back soon.“

“The homemade Greek Pizza is phenomenal! And the owner is super sweet; you can tell he really takes pride in his work and this shop. He came to our table multiple times and shared stories, made sure everything was great.

You can smell this place from a block away and it tasted as good as it smelled; far exceeded expectations! We’ll definitely be back next time in OTR! ❤“

“Fantastic joint. Not pretending to be something it isn’t, just a good old fashioned Biergarten with top notch food and a great selection of beers and other alcohol. Live music was not overpowering, and was appropriate to the crowd. Definitely heading back on my next trip to Cincinnati.“

“First time here tonight and the service was amazing and quick we were worried coming in about 7:50 since they closed at 9 and we didn’t feel rushed at all.. Food was absolutely delicious we ordered a pizza and hoagie with some cheese sticks, and that dessert especially the peanut butter pie was absolutely amazing I ask the girl at the register who makes it and Nicole idk if you will see this but you know what your doing with that peanut butter pie, it was absolutely the most delicious peanut butter pie I ever had.. it took a lot of self control to not buy every last piece that was left..“

“Mitch is amazingly fun to chat with and made my day with his smile and such great personality. Fresh and hot pizza and all around great!!!!!“

“Food, atmosphere, and especially our waiter (7/13 evening) were superb. Waiter was very attentive without hovering and took the extra step of inquiring if we were on a specific timeline (attending any events after) so that he could coordinate to get us out on time. We weren't, but what a nice touch. The food was unique and very good. Loved the stuffed squash blossoms and the duck I ordered. Bananas Foster Gelato was the perfect not-too-heavy dessert. Will definitely be going here more often.“

“Ali and Dan are doing a great job of bringing this place back to life. We stopped in for a carryout order of wings yesterday. The wings were great as we watched our Bengals at home. The interior is really looking good. More TV's and new furniture. Keep up the good work in Madeira.“

“Classic Americana and textbook friendly neighborhood bar-restaurant! Newtown Village Tavern pizza is everything LaRosa’s wishes it was and it is the superior “Cincinnati Pie” in every way. Cold beer on tap, sports on the tube. What more could you want?“

“Best customer service and food.“

“Very large pizzas. Great options. Good drinks. Clean restaurant and nice bathroom. Decent parking available. Pizza was little burnt and they did make it ok by making sure the next pizza was great and also offer a $5 discount. Would like more diverse music since it is so loud. Overall great experience.“

“If you guys haven’t tried this Grammas locations Alfredo sauce, you HAVE to! This is the only location that has Alfredo. It’s absolutely amazing! We actually get it in our pizza instead of pizza sauce, and OMG. Just try it! 10 out of 10 highly recommend!“

“Very very good pizza and salad!! Such a treat!!“

“Hands down, best hoagie I have EVER had! Pizza was AMAZING!! And he has some homemade Cincinnati style chili in there!!!!!!!! 100/10 recommend visiting Village Pizza Sharonville!!“

“Food was good and service was excellent.“

“Very welcome, took the family here for our daughters 4th birthday our server (Max) went above and beyond for our family. For the first time being here was very nice.“

“Coming all the way from Houston to try this pizza among other things was definitely one of the highlights to my trip.
Pizza looked so good I didn't even take the time to take a picture of it.
I had a small Deep dish pizza with chicken spinach n jalapenos. Hats off to the chef because that was the best pizza I've had in a long time n I'm a very picky eater. Saucey cheesy and delicious.“

“Wonderful group of ppl with some awesome pizza and calzones. Only thing I wish they also had would be some wings but other than that great experience with my coworkers from Central Window Cleaning out of Columbus“

“The girl at the register was amazing. I put her on the spot making her recommend stuff cause im not from cincinnati. She recommend the white chocolate dessert pizza with raspberry sauce. It was delicious but it think I'm diabetic now. Lol“

“Everything was so yummy! Best crust I’ve had in forever! The pizza was so good ! We started with the stuffed mushrooms. The mushrooms did not disappoint! Great wine. The balsamic was great. Service was fantastic! Would definitely come again.“

“the best hoagies around. Highly recommend“

The man working the counter was really nice and helpful, he evencarried an order out to a car for an older customer who stopped in while I was there.
Steak sandwich and fries were great. Fries were really crispy.“

“Very under staffed but good pizza and games“

“Had Lucy Blue last night for our Friday Happy Hour. So delicious. Especially love the Lucy Blue tomato sauce!“

“While visiting the Cincinnati area, we ordered pizza from La Rosa's! From the encounter on the telephone where I received impeccable customer service, to the very kind, efficient and professional delivery driver, to the most delicious and affordable pizza we've tasted! Our family was very happy to eat Larosa's Pizza! It's a shame that we don't live here because Larosa's is our new favorite pizza joint!“

“We got a variety of pizzas to go - for picky adults & pickier kids - all were amazing! We would have loved to dine in but had to grab & go.“

“When we got there we brought our dog to join us for my Father’s Day lunch and they were so helpful and nice, dog bowl of water right away and got us seated in the patio area. Took our drink order and food order and I can’t understand how that cook got everything out so quick and was so delicious. Mac and cheese bites were good, the sauce made it but the star was the 1788 burger. Hands down the best burger I think I have ever had. Juicy, hot, and fresh. The chips were even seasoned enough but if you get the chips add bbq sauce. Really enhances the flavor. Over all If you are craving an amazing burger and nice place to hang out try this place out.“

“10/10 pizza and great daily and lunch specials.“

“Always great service ..Shannon is awesome! Good always good. Highly recommend.“
