I particularly do not like the pizza here but I do love the appetizer called rondos. I usually get the pepperoni rondos with a drink for lunch. I would eat those in a heart beat. read more

LaRosa's Pizza Covington - Pepperoni rondos - Pizza Near Me - Covington, Kentucky

Gloomy night, order a pizza. What makes LaRosa's a step above that is the variety of menu items. There is something for everyone and it's all pretty tasty. Their on line coupons are a little clunky, was easier when they were in the Reach magazine. Overall, a Cincinnati standard that you can count on. read more

Long wait times, lack-luster food, and outdated interior are all things that come to mind when I think of this LaRosa's in Downtown Covington. Being rather close in Licking Riverside, it's a short walk away. Whenever I do go, it's never planned, it's usually a last resort for dinner when I don't feel like making something at home. I usually just order the smaller pizza for myself, a side salad, and occasionally a hoagie. To be quite frank, it's not good at all. The only reason I was being generous and giving it two stars as opposed to one is the location. Everything about this particular location is below average. It's understandable that the building is a renovated historic building, but it doesn't seem like the furniture has been updated in decades, the curtains have mounds of dust on them, seats with holes scattered throughout, dingy flooring, and the smell! Not to forget the musty basement smell that invaded my nostrils. The main reason I am upset about the way the interior looks is because for example, you're paying the same price to eat at this location, as you are at a nicer, more welcoming LaRosa's such as the Florence, KY location. The food is ALWAYS awful. I haven't been in a LaRosa's that had even decent food. The crust has always been burnt around the edges, the sauce has always been generic tasting, the cheese is somewhat decent - but not that great. Once you pick up a slice of this pizza, the cheese slips right off with ease. The soda machine has always needed new flavoring or what-not, it's usually always sour. The staff is generally unfriendly, and take forever to give you your less than average food. Hoagie buns are usually always burnt, but I didn't expect anything less as their crust is usually burnt as well. The salad is always yellow and most of the time it ends up being thrown away; cheapest ingredients are used on it as well, making it even more unappetizing. This review may seem extremely melancholic -- it's just that the food is not great at all! It's understandable that it's close to my apartment, convenient, but by no means is it worth the price. For $15 you could generally get a great dinner in Over The Rhine and Downtown Cincinnati at a really good restaurant. I'm never returning to this location ever again, and if you want LaRosa's, commute to a different one. read more

LaRosa's is my favorite pizza in Cincinnati. Get their "traditional" crust. (It's thinner than hand tossed but not crispy.) The sauce has just enough sweetness without being too sweet. They use provolone cheese instead of mozzarella. If you dine in, the service at this location is excellent. Delivery is always fast and friendly. Above all, their customer service is top notch. No one is perfect, everyone makes mistakes. When LaRosa's makes a mistake, let them know. They will profusely apologize and make things right. Love you, LaRosa's!! read more

I simply had to write tonight and tell this story. We quite enjoy LaRosa's and have for years but tonight they really when over and above when it comes to customer service. We have a son who is on the autism spectrum and one of his issues is food, particularly textures. He doesn't do sauces, condiments, puddings. Food have to be solid or liquid. As he's grown older he's tried to expand his food range and in the last six months has tried pizzas with no sauce. It may no sound like much but this is a big step for him. Tonight when my husband put in our order the manager called to double-check that we meant to have no sauce on the pizza. I explained my son's situation. When the pizza was delivered they gave us their in-store phone number in case David didn't like the pizza. That kind of kindness you don't see all the time any more. That type of kindness deserves loyalty. read more

OK usually this place is pretty good I have no idea what happened tonight. We had a large meatlovers delivered took almost an hour it was ordered at 9:21 pm didn't get here until 10:13pm and it was barely even warm had to heat it up in my oven!!! We was told our pizza would be delivered in 30-40 mins. We spent a little to much money to be given a luke warm pizza!!! read more

We ordered a pizza awhile ago and it was bad. Wrong toppings and Luke warm. So they gave us a credit. Ordered a pizza tonight and can't say how upset we are! No toppings and Luke warm again! A cheese pizza wasn't what we wanted but didn't want to wait another hour for the correct pizza! Ugh... Oh we are getting the credit back! Hmmm.. Not sure if we want to give it another chance. So disappointed! read more

I would leave no stars if I could. Never order from this place, especially if you have a large order. Apparently, if your order is too large they'll process it and then, sometime between the time you order and the time they are supposed deliver, they'll decide they don't feel like making your order and cancel it without informing you. We called to place our order for two college soccer teams at 8:30pm. We scheduled delivery for 10:30pm, which was happily confirmed and read back to us item by item. We called back at 11pm when our order didn't show up...and we were informed that this shop voided our order and closed for the night. The corporate manager attempted to remedy the situation with a gift card, which was appreciated, but that doesn't feed 40 student athletes who have nothing to eat three hours after we ordered our dinner. read more

LaRosa's never wows me. It's fine. The calzone sucked compared to HaHa's from a couple weeks ago. The cheesy bread isn't near as good as Donato's. But the JoJo's BLT salad never disappoints. I should just get that. Actually I like the spaghetti with mushrooms too. The Covington location was convenient today for lunch so we headed there - no parking issues. read more

This is a cozy little pizzeria that offers friendly service, good food. Be careful of alley next to restaurant the drivers sometime zip out of there, This is my favorite Larisa's. read more

LaRosa's Pizza Covington - Pizza Near Me - Covington, Kentucky

In all fairness, this pizza has been built up by my buddy as being Gods gift to the world... No.. Yellowtail tuna, Wagyu beef, My homemade pasta sauce THOSE are Gods gift, LaRosa's Pizzeria? Nah. Sweet sauce (as in taste) makes this a "not so favorite" of mine, however I will say the menu is off the hook!! The Rondo's are KILLER!!! I am going to go with a four star on this because of the menu,lots of options and CRAZY dessert options. The service was great during the lunch hour, the restaurant was clean and everybody was friendly. Will definitely be back. read more

Had this pizza the other night. Asked for deep dish extra cheese and spinach. While I feel I got most of that the spinach was canned not fresh and the crust was chef boyardee quality albeit tasteless. This is not what I remember from the previous times I've been to La Rosa. Think on your choices when you are choosing take away pizza read more

Really good food. A great variety of Italian fare on the menus. Nice, friendly atmosphere with exceptionally nice people! Recommend this one!! read more

Only reason for the two is because of the name and history. Used to be quality food. Past 15yrs not so much. This goes for the chain not the location of. read more

Some of the lettuce in my salad looked about a week old, and whoever washed it forgot to dry it off, because by the time I got to the bottom, it was more like lettuce soup than salad. The calzone was pretty mediocre. The only good thing was that the lunch special was $6.99. Guess you get what you pay for. read more

One week after incident and still no contact. Seems as if there responder to the reviews just responds to make it look like they will actually listen to customer reviews. Nice try... read more

Not sure what has happened to this location, but the new wait staff and the cooks seem to have trouble 1.) listening to their customers' orders and 2.) reading the tickets. I asked for a small meat lovers pizza, light on the sauce and slightly well-done, and what I got was a pizza slathered in sauce and barely done. As I was on lunch break and didn't have time to send it back, I ate most of the pizza - and it was cold at the end, because the crust wasn't done. Used to be a good place for lunch. Not any more! read more

Nice little place to eat. Pizza and breadsticks were very good. Nothing spectacular but very good. Service was friendly. Price was decent for a pizzeria. read more

Cutest little pizza creations called rondos were like italian cinnamon rolls. They were amazing but I can't say the same about the boneless wings. The bbq was overpowering and the chicken itself was fatty. read more

Love La Rosa's!! The pizza is terrific and so are the breadsticks/cheesesticks! Everytime we came to town we always eat here!

Alrite.. I went to this place bc I had a meeting in Covington area and was suggested. Had fast service.. Ordered their lunch combo which include pizza and salad. Pizza was Alrite.. Nothing exceptional but price was good. I m not sure if I will be back. Very average!!! read more

When in Cinci, it's almost impossible to not grab a pizza here. I can't seem to drive by without it. I'll even pick one up and take it home 100 miles away. read more

LaRosa's is a Cincinnati staple. You will find LaRosa's in every neighborhood. Mist Cincinnati and have fond memories of a fresh slice at Kings Island near the Beast. The sauce is really sweet ( sugary). read more

We ate here based on a referral from our hotel. We enjoyed our pizza and we had great service! I think our waitress was Courtney. We had a combo pizza and so happy to hear that had COKE products! We would go again if we were in the area again! read more

These guys served us personal pan pizzas for free after the Reds got 11 strikeouts. The game ended at 945 we rushed over and got there at 9:58. They locked us in a made us fresh pizza. Others were turned away. This location rocks. read more

What can I say pretty darn good for a chain. These things called rondos are awesome, better than most chains pizza, good wings and good American salads with all the dressing a junk. Would recommend if nearby and want a quick pizza fix. read more

The staff here is pretty awesome. They were immediately like friends. They came with awesome suggestions and they knew there stuff. The settling was super clean. And the manager is a military. Thank him for his services. Just kick ass crew. read more

I love Larosa's!! Their pizza is amazing. Their salads are always fresh. Their salad dressings are excellent. Their dining room is kinda dim and boring. But delivery is always quick and hot. One of my favorite places to eat. I would definitely recommend then to everyone. read more

I live downtown and order pizza about once a week. There are several pizza places that deliver in this area and I have tried them all, but LaRosa's are the only ones to actually deliver the pizza to the apartment door (not to mention I really like their food!). Other services call and give some reason why they can't come up (can't find parking, have too many other orders and need to keep moving, etc). The point of ordering delivery as opposed to pick up or sit down is to literally not leave your house. Luckily LaRosa's gets that. Their drivers are on time, friendly, and never complain about the location I live in. Plus the order is always accurate. I now exclusively order pizza for delivery from this LaRosa's! read more

Excellent experience at LaRosa's on Madison Ave. We were visiting Cinncinati on 9/16/17 from Chicago and came across this gem of a place. We were a party of 10 and arrived pretty late but they were extremely accommodating. Our server Jessica was fabulous as was the manager that we met as well. They were extremely friendly and courteous. The food was quick and good. They made a group of out of town travelers feel right at home. Love this place and will certainly visit again when in town! read more

Loved this location until tonight when I was told they didn't deliver to my home! But they do deliver to the homes across the street! I usually pickup our order but tonight it was nasty out and didn't really feel like going out. Needless to say I will make the commute to Latonia instead of spending a dime this store! read more

$35.00 for mediocre pizza and bad wings is not money well spent. Was told delivery would be 30min but took 50min. All around unhappy.

I really would like to talk to someone about the man who calls himself the "GM" at the Covington store. He called me at my home to tell me that I wasn't allowed to order delivery anymore because I complained about this order and had complained in the last year. That happens when the pizza is raw, or dry or has no topping and is 3 inches of crust! I repeatedly asked him to come look at the pizza before deciding, but he refused & said his decision was final. I called a supervisior at 513- 347-1111 to tell this to and while I was on hold, he contacted the "GM" and was told that I was not allowing him to see the pizza. That is simply not true! It had 2-3 inch outside crust and was bone dry of sauce. I can't believe that I was treated this way. This man called me at my home and then lied about what I said to cover for his bad behavior! He accused me of complaining just to get free food. That is an insult and he needs to apologize to me. read more
