4.5 stars rounded to 5. I haven't had their regular pizza, only the tavern style on Mondays--but WOW. It is SO good. By far it's the best pizza of this style in the city. I haven't had this style pizza of this quality since I moved back to Cincinnati from northern Indiana. The pepperoni is excellent. The reason why I took off half a star is because I do feel it's a little pricey for what you get. Thin crust pizza doesn't stretch far, and the pizza is only 14 inches. The quality is worth it, but the price means I don't order as often as I would like.

Just had carry out tavern and absolutely awesome. From out of town visiting our Xavier student. I've had the traditional which was great but I might like this even better.

Absolutely incredible pizza, I can’t even begin to guess how many times I’ve ordered from St. Francis but it’s a lot! Every time the pie is spectacular, world class pizza in the 513! keep up the good work!

Ditto on the previous review. Excellent crust flavor but I got fooled by the "Apizza", which this is far from. I take excwption to that claim. Very bland sauce/cheese; obviously not utilizing the highest quality/fresh ingredients (today). Maybe spend a little more on san marzano tomatoes and handmade mozz. Also... nothing says lack of pride more than pulling your garbage cans through the front door. Do better.

Wow! I had my first pizza on Friday and reordered on Sunday. So good! The Crust.. oh my goodness the CRUST! Toppings are fresh and local, the crust is chewy and crispy, absolutely fantastic! Also the customer service is 5 ⭐️! I ordered for pickup on Sunday around close and the site scheduled it for the next day and I didn’t finish processing that before I got a call from the owner and they asked if I wanted it for tonight or tomorrow and was SO accommodating, so polite and understanding. It’s a new level of customer service. I’m a new customer but they have made a customer for life! Thank you!

Some of the best pizza you’ll find in Cincinnati! We did a half margarita and half pepperoni and cheese. Crust was crisped to perfection, cheese and sauce out of this world!!!! Only negative I had was not getting a second pie to take home for later!!!!

transplanted New Yorker here, so this was a bland disappointment for me. the crust was a winner though. very nice service at the counter but did have to wait past the promised time for the pizza. Also, the price seemed pretty high. I'll stick with my go-to Il Gusto Pizza in Dillonvale but as a baker, glad that good dough reigns at St Francis aPizza.

This is the second time I received a BURNT pizza. This place is highly recommended from our friends. When I picked it up the host opened the box to check if the correct order. I had other errands to run so didn’t go back. Funny thing is this has never happened at any of the other thousands of times I’ve ordered a pizza. Both times I couldn’t eat it, just threw it away.

Ordered on a Tuesday. Frankie's style pizza is TERRIBLE. Cardboard crust. Dried out toppings. We'll give it another try during regular day pizza. There has to be a reason people rave about it. Service was great.

We ordered a build your own pizza from St. Francis on Saturday night. It was a little pricy, but we had been wanting to give it a try. They do not have any dine-in options - this pizza is solely for pickup. I'm glad we ordered early around 5:30, because the pickup time is as 6:30. When we got there to pick up the pizza, we heard the guy behind the counter say they were booked up for the night and that if someone were or order now, they wouldn't be able to pick up until 9. A very popular place, so order early! Service was very nice and fast. The pizza itself was absolutely delicious and worth the price. Toppings were excellent - I love tiny pepperoni. The crust is very thin and wood-fired, which is my favorite. We split the pizza between the two of us, so I'd recommend ordering more if feeding 3. Check it out!
