50 Best Pizza Restaurants near North College Hill

“THIS is for the College Hill location... that Big Gripp is absolute ⛽ 🔥 👀 🤤“

“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.“

“Strong's new Newport location has noticeably "upped their game". I've been there the last two Fridays with a group for lunch and EVERYONE agreed that their pizzas were PHENOMENAL. The ingredients and flavor profiles were distinctly fresh and you could tell they aren't aiming to be "just another pizza joint"! 👍“

“Nice quaint pizza spot. Good food“

“Great atmosphere. Quick and friendly service. Best time to come is for lunch to get the lunch deal. Fairly priced, around $4-5 for a single slice which seems pricey but they are huge slices. The garlic knots are the best I’ve ever had. Pizza is good, I will definitely come back but wouldn’t go out of my way to come if it weren’t for the garlic knots. Fun place to try!“

“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.“

“Amazing pizza!!!!! The Chicago style pizza is hands down the best! Garlic knots were good too and garlic butter and marinara automatically comes with it. a must try and you'll keep going back!“

“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“

“We ate at Caruso’s for the first time July 3, 2024. My wife and I thought our meals were 5 star, delicious! She had the Chicken Marsala and I had the Rigatoni Rustica. We asked our waiter Sam for his recommendations and we’re so glad we took his advice. Best Italian dishes we’ve ever enjoyed. We can’t wait to return with good friends. Excellent! Denny & Barb G.“

“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!“

“The vegan pizzas and tempeh hoagies are delicious and they have yummy crafty cocktails too. Highly recommended!“

“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.“

“Have dined at Fessler’s for a few years now despite living across the river. Always friendly faces to take our orders. I am gluten free and was delighted to find out they have amazing gluten free hoagies. Delicious pizza, crinkle cut fries, and Coke products. What more could we ask for? Nothing. This place is perfect!“

“My husband and I stopped in today for lunch after seeing it recommended on Google. The fresh focaccia with olive oil and balsamic were hands down the best I’ve ever had. My husband enjoyed his wedge salad and we split a highly delicious pepperoni pizza. Mike and Maddie were so welcoming! We even got to enjoy their brand new outdoor umbrellas which gave such a nice touch to their outdoor dining patio. We will definitely be back sooner rather than later! 🥰“

“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!“

“Amazing food. Wonderful views. The ambiance and service was 10/10. 💜💜💜“

“We had a friend in need of a nice cheesey covered pizza and y'all did not disappoint Turned out our friend had lost his sense of taste for most things after covid a few years ago. We brought him your pizza and it was one of the few meals he could actually taste. What a joy for him.

Thanks for being a great part of our neighborhood!“

“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..“

“The pizza was absolutely delicious! Kara, our waitress and bartender, was amazing — friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend this place!“

“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.“

“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! ❤“

“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.“

“We had a wonderful experience visiting this spot on Madison Road. Everything we ordered was prepared perfectly and tasted incredibly fresh.

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.“

“Best customer service and food.“

“Food was good and service was excellent.“

“We ate there a month ago for the first time, and one of the guys working told me he was sure we'd be back again. He was so right, it's worth the hour drive! They definitely have the New York City pizza touch.“

“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!!“

“Gina was absolutely phenomenal! She went above and beyond to make our experience truly unforgettable. Her warmth, kindness, professionalism, and attention to every little detail were simply exceptional. You can tell she genuinely cares about making every guest feel special. Honestly, Gina deserves the highest praise; she is a true gem and a huge reason we had such a fantastic experience. If you visit, I hope you get the chance to have Gina take care of you because she is absolutely amazing!“

“Love it here! Above and beyond, our pizza was delayed a few minutes, which we didn't even notice and the manager( I think) said the crust on 2 slices wasn't to their standard and they made another pizza to go, waived the charge. We will be Dewey's Covington for life! We didn't ask, but were so impressed at their strive for perfection! Delicious as always!!!!“

“Food is always on point! One of my favorite places to eat out. Service is always EXCEPTIONAL, Amanda is our regular server and she is always attentive, sweet, and provides excellent service every time. Love BJ’s!“

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.“

“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!“
