Cincinnati’s culinary scene is always perennially underrated, and that extends to our pizza. There are plenty of longtime community staples (Trotta’s, Adriatico’s and the like), but it feels like our city’s pizza game has drastically leveled up in recent years. Here are five of my personal favorite spots for a pie in the area. As always, this is just my opinion — plenty of great restaurants I love aren’t on this list, and might pop up in a future article. The five spots listed below, however, are places I’d go back to again and again.
