    Cincinnati is an interesting pizza town. Our claim to fame, as it were, is regional chain LaRosa's. Its success cannot be denied, but surf any Reddit thread or Facebook thread discussing Cincinnati pizza, and you'll find a particular disdain for our hometown pizzeria, with most negative comments saying it's overrated, the sauce is too sweet, or it smells of feet/vomit. Yes really. Our other regional chain with some notoriety is Dewey's, a more "upscale" style pizza joint that appeals to hipsters and families.  The seasonal Tito Santana taco pizza is a revelation. Dewey's also has its detractors citing price as the main complaint. The rest of the scene is local chains like Angilos and Grammas serving serviceable "homestyle" pizzas and steak hoagies, a handful of wood-fired pizza places, and an even smaller handful of New York-style pie places. And of course national chains like Domino's and Pizza Hut. Among the crowded scene is Lucy Blue. A local micro chain with two locations serving something between Angilo's and Dewey's. Lucy Blue built it reputation with pizza windows in downtown and Mt. Lookout. More recently, their two locations are in the suburbs of Anderson Township and in the always-happening Over the Rhine area in the urban basin. Lucy Blue's menu skews more toward Dewey's than Gramma's. Just two pages featuring standard pizzas and expected toppings, fresh salads, a few sandwiches including the requisite steak hoagie and a few appetizers. Missing is the litany of fried items that crowd Angilo's and Grammas menus. The focus here is on freshness and simplicity. And fresh is what you get--in spades. Every item we've tried has been fresh and high-quality. The crust is bready and structurally sound. The sauce is fresh and tomatoey. The cheese has a bite and pull that you'd expect from higher-quality pizza kitchens. Toppings like pepperoni, sausage, and veggies all seem high-quality and tasty. The steak hoagie is much better than the sloppy, buttery messes you get at most places. The meat was tasty, and the toppings were crisp and plentiful. The breadsticks were very good. They were short but heavy and flavorful, and the sauce accompanying them was chunky and flavorful. The salad was bright, green, and fresh! There is a tiny spicy bite to everything, including the delicious ranch dressing. Overall, Lucy Blue is an excellent option among Cincinnati's many pizza spots. The food is fresh and tasty.

    Cheesy goodness!

    My lady and I are always looking for new pizza spots to try out. Recently, I remembered that this location was about to open just before that dreaded COVID-19 hit, so of course, that opening was delayed a little. Still, since it's open now, we thought we'd give it a try, and we're glad we did. Great pizza at great prices! Who doesn't love that? We decided to get a 16" classic cheese pizza to go before the Lions/49ers game. Their menu has lots of pizza options as well as hoagies, salads, and desserts. Calling in to order was super easy and the employee I spoke to was very helpful. He said it'd be about 20 minutes, so not long at all. When I got there, the place itself wasn't big at all, with only five tables and short bar seating. They also serve beer and wine. When my order was ready, I could smell it through the pizza box, and it smelled delicious. And when my lady and I tried it at home, we were instant fans. The sauce has lots of garlic in it which is always good to me. Plus it was loaded with cheesy goodness (almost as much as my sense of humor). We definitely devoured that pizza! Excellent pizza spot and one with great prices. Our pizza was only $15.95. I think we might try their hoagies next time or get a different kind of pizza. Needless to say, there WILL be a next time.

    Customer service is 100% here, really great. This location has barely been open a week but they're so friendly, open to recommendations and delicious. They're still building up their aesthetics so I'm excited to come back and see some advertisements or many local sports memorabilia; Turpin and Anderson. There's a handful of tables to eat at and a small bar. Not bad for a couple of buddies. Pizza itself was great, hubs and I easily split a 12in with an extra slice to go. We went with the mild fresh sauce, which I prefer. The traditional spicy sauce does have a kick and I know my kiddo would not like it. Glad they let us sample and glad they created the mild sauce! I do like my cheese just a bit more caramelized but I know they're working with new to them equipment. A few more minutes in the oven would've been great as the inside sauce wasn't super warm. I'm looking forward to trying LB again once they're established because they're doing good things so far! Also keeping an eye out for gluten free crust in the future! If you're GF, please recommend! They're open to suggestions and so kind!

    Burnt bottom

    This place has great reviews which makes me even more sad and confused. We just moved over here and were excited to try because it's so close to us. The pepperoni pizza was missing pepperoni on half. The Mexican pizza was burnt on the bottom. The cheese tasted sour and like it was old, not sure if they mix the mozzarella with blue cheese or something?? The crust also tasted like someone dumped way too much basil and herbs in it, it took a while to get rid of the after taste. I'm the type of person to say even bad pizza is good pizza, but this unfortunately I would not eat again, especially after paying so much money. I didn't call and try to get a new pizza because we just didn't want to eat any more of it sadly there was some young girls working so I'm not sure if we got the teenage girl special or what, but don't think we will be back even though it's so close

    My order was ready quickly. Family loved the mild sauce version and the meatballs were awesome. The Italian salad was also excellent.
