This unassuming little gem serves outstanding pizza using fresh ingredients and dough made daily! The owner, Pietro, hails from Sicily and is friendly and quite personable!
I stopped for the first time recently after reading about it on a few online forums, and let me tell you, the hype is real. I ordered a simple cheese with fresh mushrooms and garlic, and the pie came out perfect.

Just moved to the area and needed to find my go-to pizza joint. Happy to say I believe I found it in Uciuni! The crust was perfect and the red-sauce is very solid. Not sure if they have breadsticks, though if they don’t that would be an amazing thing to add!
I wish I could say I was exaggerating when I say this pizza was the best pizza experience I’ve ever had in my life. Hands down. I’m a pizza lover, always eat pizza everywhere I go from Detroit, Chicago, New York, New Jersey… EVERYWHERE. I have not yet had a pizza like this that felt so genuinely authentic that it actually made me tear up a little 😂😂

Pizzeria Uciuni offers excellent New York-style pizza made with quality ingredients and authentic sauce. The owner, a pizza enthusiast, uses an old pizza oven to ensure a great experience for customers. The crust is perfectly crisp and flavorful, featuring dark "leopard spots." The cheese creates a delightful bite with a well-balanced sauce and low moisture cheese ratio. The toppings are not heavy-handed, and there are vegetarian options available, including a simple white pizza with creamy cheese, garlic, and a basil garnish.
This carry-out only and cash-only establishment has limited days for in-person orders, but the fantastic preparation and great prices make it worth the wait. Customers are captivated by the aroma of fresh ingredients and the owner's knowledge and stories, making the brief wait enjoyable. While the pizza toppings are not as limited as the hours, after the first bite, customers will be believers in the magic of Uciuni's pizza. The pizzeria is mindful and demure, making it a contender for Cleveland's best pizza. Parking is available in a few spots right up front, but families with kids may want to keep them at home due to the shop's size. The place is wheelchair accessible.
