50 Best Pizza Restaurants near St. Matthews

“Came to Saints last night for a football game. As usual, they are a busy spot for game time and we had to wait for a seat. No problem- we grabbed a drink at the bar and went outside where we still had game visibility. Upon returning inside, we found a table. The server in our corner bounced around serving every single table around us as we sat for 30+ mins waiting. No "I'll be right with you", nothing. I made eye contact with her several times and she continued to avoid us. At one point, she even walked by and put her hand flat up beside her cheek almost to "block" her view of us as she walked by. Watching her serve other tables.. you could feel her attitude- rolling her eyes at people, huffing and puffing as she walked around. Busy, I get it. But don't be a server at a very busy restaurant if you aren't capable of still making it a positive experience for the customers. There was only two of us- not difficult. I finally got up and stood at the bar waiting for her to come out of the kitchen. After chasing her down, I asked if she was the server for our table. She just stared at me. So I said "No? Ok..." and just walked back with intentions of finding another server. She followed me to the table..pulled out her ordering tablet and stared at us. We politely (and awkwardly) ordered our entire meal and more drinks because we weren't sure if she would ever return. After we ordered, she literally just walked away. Not one word came out of her mouth the entire time. At this point, I asked another server to send a manager over. Jamie came by and completely changed the tune. She showed concern, listened, and sincerely apologized. Only thanks to Jamie, the remainder of our visit was wonderful. She took care of us from all angles- although she shouldn't have to do take one of her servers tables when she is busy managing her own tasks. Food was excellent and we will be returning but I can't say I'd be happy if I saw the same server in our section. It was extremely unpleasant until Jamie took ever. Thank you Jamie!“

“I go to the one on Hubbard's Lane and this is the best pizza in the city.“

“Spinelli’s is one of my favorite places to go for pizza. The overall atmosphere is so cool and the food is amazing. My friend and I got two cheese slices and they were excellent.Vegetarian options: As a vegetarian myself, the cheese pizza was really good“

“On-line seating request worked great. Until we were seated in the heated outside area. Heat was intense, table was so loose we would not be able to hold it and eat, and table was covered with some sticky substance. We would have asked to move but nobody came to the table. So we left. Sad because the food is good!“

“I lived in Naples Italy for two years and this is the first pizza I’ve had that’s as good as what I had there. Congratulations on wonderful Pizza at Lupo’s.“

“Always so amazing here. Best pizza in town and staff is always so nice.“

“We had dinner there last night with some of our family for our grandson’s birthday. The food was excellent! The service was superb with all the waitresses being so friendly and exceptionally helpful to us. It was a wonderful birthday celebration and we will definitely be going back to “bar Vetti” again and highly recommend it to all our friends. Thank you for a great evening!“

“This place hands down the best pizza place in town! They make you feel like you’re part of their family! You get more than just great food, you also get great service and wonderful conversation!!!“

“My sister and I shared a wonderful evening at Cuvee last night. We overindulged on some recommended reds, and thoroughly enjoyed sharing a few small plates and the dinner special of salmon over fettuccini pasta. We were pampered by the staff and treated to a birthday dessert. We can't wait to come back.“

“I was looking for a non chain pizza place and I stumbled upon a recommendation for pizzaville and let me tell you when I saw a chili cheese dog pizza I was sold and had to try this asap. Absolutely one of the best executed non traditional pizzas I've ever had! Loved every single morsel. I will be back just as soon as possible to try all the other great looking pies on the menu as well as a few other offerings they serve. Do yourself a favor and give Pizzaville a try, well worth it and fairly priced.“

“Such a fun place! We enjoyed drinks/beer from the self serve tap wall, while our son did racing simulations. We will have to check out the axe throwing and VR sometime soon!“

“Nashville. Hot. Chicken. Pizza. Is all that needs to be said. Hands down the best pizza I've ever had! The Philly cheesesteak pizza was amazing as well. And the crack sticks! 10/10 will be back!!!“

“Parlour has not let me down with their calzones... Ordered over the phone. Order was ready in 15min for dinner. I ordered the deluxe calzone... one of the best calzones I've had... ever. Crisp outside crust... loaded with meat, cheese and veggies. The bell peppers were very fresh. SUPER FILLING!“

“When I lived in Louisville I ate here about four times a week for lunch. I was so happy to come back and see Gary and everybody this weekend. Hands down the best pizza joint in America.“

“Great pizza shop! Very thin crust, good quality cheese and a local place with an extremely friendly owner. It was a tad salty for my taste, but I also tend to be a bit sensitive with that.Overall I would definitely recommend it and get a takeout pizza again!“

“Homemade lasagna Spaghetti & meatballs Yummy“

“best pizza in Louisville! plus the calzones are awesome too!“

“Got a lovely waitress, Cara! Who was amazing at telling me what was best on the menu since it was my First Time there! The pizza was piping hot and super (wildly impressive cheese pulls y'all!) tasty! The cheese and sauce ratio was on point and they were mindful of my food allergy!If I could rate higher, I definitely would!“

“the food was yummy n the staff was very nice place. can’t wait to go back“

“This is a good place to visit great customer service thanks to Anthony outdone himself took care of everything I needed.“

“Beer was tasty. I thought our pizza was very good. We had some nachos too and those were good. Fun to boat watch from the deck.“

“Some of the best pizza I've eaten came from Coals. The ambience is as good as the food! Their prices are in line with what you get and they have a good selection of beers, cocktails, wines, and sodas. We'll definitely recommend and return to Coals. Great food!Kid-friendliness: Great place to take behaved kids.“

“We are in town for hockey this weekend and needed a place to grab an appetizer or two for lunch. Found Craft House Pizza on my maps app and headed over. We ordered the baked meatballs and bacon cheese fries. Oh so good! The marinara sauce was fabulous and the meatballs moist and seasoned well! The bacon cheese fries were delicious with their melted mozzarella and ranch for dipping. Our waitress super nice and helpful. Everything was so good, we went back for dinner. Dinner was a bacon cheeseburger pizza and we added their spicy pickles to it and asked for marinara as the base in stead of pizza sauce. NO REGRETS! It was the best pizza we've had in a long while! Ordered an old fashioned and their local beer that was similar to a Blue Moon. Both were great. Evening hours were busy but not packed. Great music, bar type atmosphere. Another great waitress that was super fun and friendly and helpful. Highly recommend eating here if you're in town! Next time we are here, we WILL come back! Forgot to take pictures, just trust everything looked as good as it tasted!“

“This has to be the best pizza in Louisville. Very unique taste not like other pizza places. The atmosphere is so nice.The restaurant is gorgeous and the bar is well stocked. Tons of outside eating also. And you can even order at the bar from outside. First time there today and I'll definitely be going back. Can't believe it took me this long to go there. Boy have I been missing out“

“Service was awesome so was the food“

“One of my favorite places to eat! Good fresh ingredients, love that a lot of items are homemade! I cant get enough of this place!“

“Love the craft beers. Great staff“

“Solid pizza place. Their green chili chicken pizza is my fav, I would rate that alone 5 stars. We were lucky enough to be seated in a room that was quieter than the main dining area, and that made it so easy to have conversation and enjoy the ambiance.“

“Best pizza I’ve eaten! Meatballs & mushrooms were also delicious! Friendly employees & excellent customer service! Will definitely be back!“

“There were 4 in our party last Sunday and Tyler was our server. He was amazing. So kind and attentive. Food came to our table hot and delicious and in a timely manner. As many of you know…this rarely happens in today’s world of restaurants.We absolutely had a wonderful experience!“

“WOW! Awesome pizza awesome crust less pizza AMAZING meatballs the size of your fist If your ever near the Kentucky Exposition Center you got to stop here!“

“2024 Update: Still a popular restaurant in Middletown. The entire staff are so nice & friendly & the food is yummy!!!Coals Artisan Pizza in Middletown is a favorite. The pizza are cooked in "coal-fired oven", which makes a uniquely lighter tasting crust. There are lots of great choices & many different toppings offered. The pizzas are regionally named for Louisville Metro area neighborhoods. Our favorite pizzas include the "Middletown, Crescent Hill & Brownsboro pizzas". There is a nice dining room, outdoor patio and a party room which can be reserved which has a large TV that accommodates up to 40 people. There is a nice wine list and excellent local draft beers choices as well.Highly recommend & as always the staff do a great job.“

“Absolutely love yall. My only complaint is that there isn't one closer to home. Preston Hwy has a lot of development opportunities btw lol.“

“I got the warm sandwich with cheese and meat. It was nicely warm when they brought it out. I had a big enough sandwich I bought 1/2 home. One person got the crust less pizza and it was enough in it that she was full. The other person got a pizza and was very satisfied with her choice. All and all a good trip“

“When we walked in I was sure it was not kid friendly due to the live band, I was wrong! We ALL enjoyed ourselves and the food was AMAZING!!! We will def be back, only with more people!!! #blindsquirrelrestaurant #blindsquirrel #buzzyboothVegetarian options: n/aKid-friendliness: Very much so!“

“Great place to grab a quick bite. Pizza was good and had a great flavor. Everyone was friendly and helpful. An overall great atmosphere. The only slight knock was that it was not what I would call a “traditional Sicilian” pizza. It was very thin pizza more like New York style. My girlfriend is 1st gen Sicilian Immigrant and said she agreed that it’s usually a much thicker crust. More closely resembling a Chicago style deep dish. Other than that small issue, it was great and well worth the price.“

“We were staying at Aloft and ordered 2 pizzas for delivery. The delivery driver was super nice and the pizzas were fantastic!!“

“Great Food and Great People“

“Great place for pizza and cold beer!“

“Great food! Great service! We will definitely go back here to eat!“

“Staff was nice… good pizza in town“

“Great pizza. Great Crust. Great prices. Will be back. You gotta try it!“

“Love the Pizza and Cheesestix“

“Has a fresh and tasty pizza. The wings are just as good with great sauces. If you like bourbon they also have a broad enough selection too.Vegetarian options: It's pizza and you can have a vegetarian option or build your own. For Italian style dishes it can be hard, but there are some other vegetarian options too.Kid-friendliness: They have pizza, how is that not kid friendly. Also there's enough seating for families.Wheelchair accessibility: It's all 1 level with low bumps so wheelchairs, walkers, etc can all have access.“

“First time here, although I'm not sure why we waited so long. I called for a carry-out order but we decided to dine in instead. They went ahead and started our pizza and by the time we got there we only had to wait about 10 minutes for our food. Pizza was really good.. loved the crust and especially the sauce. They were a little generous with the jalapeños but pepperoni, beef, mushrooms, and green olives were really tasty. The weather was great tonight so the large front windows and doors were open. The atmosphere inside was somewhat retro and totally likeable! Very clean. Great server who was also serving as the bartender. We will be back!!“

“Ate lunch at southside of Louisville Kentucky. Very friendly and very clean. Debbie S. Is great. She took our order and brought it to us with fresh breadsticks. She was running the front of the restaurant ( by herself) and had everything under control. I wanted to share and hope the company is aware of her exceptional service. Cooks are great too. Food was fresh and hot. Wish we had this where we lived.“

“PLEASE READ!!!This was mine and my fiancee's favorite place when living in KY, but we moved across the country last year. He went back to visit family while I stayed behind. Before coming home, he picked up a Calzone and and their housemade ranch then drove it all the way back home to Utah for me!!!!! Even reheated, their food is amazing!!! It was great to enjoy a bit of home even being so far away.(He kept it in a cooler and refreshed the ice every stop at a gas station, not just left out in the open)Thank you Parlour crew for all the great food and many great memories; both in the restaurant and at home with take out for date night in ♥️“

“I love their pizza. It's fresh and doesn't taste like the typical pizza restaurant chains.Vegetarian options: Spinach, olives, pineapple, and the list goes on.Dietary restrictions: Vegan, gluten-free, vegetarianKid-friendliness: It's fun for the whole family. They even had a balloon artist on Pi Day.“

“Great food and service. Pizza slice is a great value.“

“We went here for a bingo event and had an absolute blast! I wont lie, when we first walked in the vibe just seemed off. We weren't greeted by anyone and had no clue where to sit or how to order drinks or food. We finally asked one of the staff members and got it all figured out. The food was absolutely delicious and the staff was very friendly! The bingo event was so much fun and we won a bunch of really cool prizes! We will definitely be returning!“
