50 Best Pizza Restaurants in Cleveland

“Could not have had a better experience while at Cent's. All the appetizers were great: from the aptly named Wonder Bread, the pickled vegetables & the duck prosciutto. The 2 pizzas ordered, the Papa & the GORF were both standouts. The crust on both was thin and tasty, as good as any overhyped joint in NYC could do. Staff was cordial & helpful. The relaxed atmosphere created between staff & music being played made it a great place to eat and enjoy a meal.“

“Great Italian specialties. The sandwich’s were delicious! I had the Roast beef sandwich , my husband had the Italian. We also had the Wedding Soup, what a treat!!! Authentic and flavorful! The Maritozzi’s were the most delicious sweet I have had in a long time! The staff is super friendly, they treated me like family! Definitely coming back here again soon!“

“The best pizza. In a long time“

“Stopped here after my son's baseball game nearby. Not from the area but have been hearing wonderful things about Mimi's. The service was amazing and the food was delicious. While we sat and ate our yummy pizza, Mimi herself struck up a conversation with us, and later brought us a fresh bowl of sausage and peppers, completely complimentary. We would definitely make the 40+ minute drive for more Mimi's!“

“Best pizza in Cleveland, and one of the few that sells by the slice.“

“The Best Pizza This side of NYC!!!“

“You’ve seen the Facebook reviews! You’ve heard the buzz the rumors! You’ve talked to people who have tried and raved!! Get off your butt and get in line!
Absolutely amazing pizza done with passion, intent and true skill that only comes from a master of their craft. Upon entering the small, clean and purposeful shop the aroma of fresh ingredients and flour dusted surfaces will have you under its spell. It’s obvious the place means business. Options for pizza toppings are not as limited as the hours but after the first bite you will be a believer. Conversations with the owner/Pizzolo while we waited and preformed his dough magic transported us right to the city of Naples. His knowledge and stories made our 15 minute wait seem like an only a few seconds. Not being able to decide we ended up getting two pies and we’re glad we did! Crisp thin crusts with those dark “leopard spots”, perfectly balanced sauce and low moisture cheese ratio with just the right amount of toppings including basil picked fresh from the plant. This type of pizza might not be for everyone but it’s definitely a contender for Cleveland’s best. Very demure, very mindful.

“The pizza was hot and fresh, the wings were nice and crispy and the fried dough was the perfect tasty treat to complete the meal“

“This is one of two places in the county that we will buy from. I grew up in NY and am a self proclaimed pizza snob. You can’t beat a Capri pie. It’s the closest to NY style pizza in NEO.“

“10 out of 10 pizza, recommend NYC style“

“Great pizza and desserts!“

“I have been going here since I was 12 with my grandfather! The best pizza in the land, hands down. I love the fact that it's soulful brothers doing all the cooking! I did notice the new floor and pop machine in the place! I think the parking lot needs more lighting. The location is a little rough ladies please go earlier in the day for safety.“

“Godmother's Pizza and Subs is hands down a hidden gem! Their meatball sub is the best I’ve ever had. The bread is baked to perfection, with just the right balance of softness and crunch. The meatballs are tender and flavorful, paired with a rich, savory sauce that ties everything together beautifully. Every bite feels like comfort food done right. If you’re in the area, this is a 100% must-try spot. You won’t be disappointed!“

“amazing pizza and lovely staff :)“

“Ordered food tonight again from Carmino's. The phone lines weren't letting us get through so we drove up and placed our order. They didn't disappoint. The food and service was great. 👍🍕🍟🍝🥗🥖😋 #Delicious *Just recommend updating the prices online and on the website from what you actually charge.“

“Tried for the first time today after a friend suggested it to me. I got the Philly cheese stromboli & breaded mushrooms. Both were absolutely amazing! My husband got boneless wings, and those were great as well. Will definitely be coming here again to try some of their other foods and for the stromboli.“

“So tasty and so many options with super friendly staff!“

“Ordered from Middleburg. Ribs, fries and Beans were awesome! The Pizza was a little under cooked. Nothing that bothers me, but some of the Pickler eaters in the house took issue with that. Still thought the Pizza was great, nothing that can't be fixed when it's reheated later. I would reccomend ordering well done Pizza. Everything was fantastic though and I'll definitely be back“

“awesome pizza always fast & delicious“

“Thanks to my husband discovering this gem of a pizza joint I can’t help but want their delicious food about once a week. I love their BBQ chicken pizza and garlic Parmesan wings, but everything else we’ve tried has been just as delicious! Double edged sword bc I found the best place around, but I’m wanting to eat it all the time. Must try!!“

“Jacob does a wonderful job at making the pizza he always takes care of me and the children, he truly has a heart of gold, thank you for everything Jacob! ❤️ Get the Godzilla Calzone! It's not on the menu it's a speciality item Jacob made so you have to request, OMG 😳😲 it's the biggest Calzone in Cleveland! Literally the BIGGEST!“

“We tried a pizza, calzone, and stromboli. All of which were pretty good. Location is inside of a grocery store and it took a bit longer than we are used to for carry out. It was about an hour wait. The dough was really good, could probably use more sauce imo. Toppings are on top of cheese so they did tend to fall off of the pizza.“

“Fantastic place! Highly recommended!“

“We had our daughter’s graduation party on 5/11/24. They made our experience wonderful for our party of 15. The food, beer and drinks were great! The table by the wall was perfect for our food to be set up and at 4:30, we could chat and it wasn’t noisy at all. Thank you to your staff for allowing is to create a beautiful memory!“

“Pizza was ok nothing that made me say oooh delicious sauce was flavorless (took a bite with no pepperoni), pepperoni over powering that couldn't even taste the sausage and greasy. The mozzarella too expensive and cold, I live 2min away if that so it wasn't the drive time.“

“The pizza was really good. I haven't been here in years, and it's still just as good. Took my husband there when we came to visit cleveland
We called in our order, and we had to wait over an hour. I do know it's made to order, so maybe that's why. Will definitely come back“

“My wife and I are in town for some CCF appointments. We ordered 2 small BYO pizzas. They arrived at the hotel in a reasonable amount of time considering it’s Super Bowl Sunday. Both pizzas were fresh, hot & delicious. We ordered thin crust pizzas. They were great and had a little crunch to them. We are very happy with our pizzas. Thank you Georgio’s!“

“Best pizza around... Love the medium thin crust!!!!!“

“I ordered the meatbal pizza with jalapeños. Wonderful crust and very flavorful.“

“The food was good I always order they wings and fries with sauce and it was good I also ordered they cheeseburger and a slice of cheese cake it was good they have great service I always order from them“

“the gentleman with a beard working today at 4:30 was so kind and helpful, i can’t explain how much his kindness to my daughter and i meant to us both. thank you so much!!!! :) pizza was delicious as always too. thank you thank you thank you.“

“Food and service were excellent. I recommend.“

“This has been the best location so far. I order online to come to my job, which is a locked building. They call me when they're outside. The delivery guy is SO NICE and personable. I always order cheesy bread on the papa pairings, and they are seriously the most beautiful product I've ever received, every single time. There has not been one issue. This is my go to location from now on!“

“We got the meatloaf, cabbage w/ kielbasa, macaroni and cheese, & cornbread muffin. Listen…

I don’t get on here to speak up about very many places; a place has really, REALLY gotta impress me for that. That dinner was absolutely phenomenal. Everything was on point and seasoned just perfectly. Y’all put y’all foot in that!! First time customer and I will be back soon all the way from Painesville.“

“I had the fish fry today and it was tremendous. My new go to especially with Lent coming up. Salute“
