Great food every time we go ! Has their new Caesar Salad with Anchovies added very good. My husband ahead sausage and green pepper pizza I had a slice it was so good. I'm not usually a fan of thin crust but I really enjoy theirs and the flavor of the sauce. I also had the lemon gelato so yummy and creamy . Can't wait to go again . I want to try the homemade cavatelli's . read more

This might be the best pizza on the east side of Cleveland! It is truly NY style pizza, with a perfect crust, wonderful sauce and just the perfect amount of cheese. I've had their carry out a number of times and eaten there once or twice. My suggestion would be to go the bar around the corner and just order the pizza their if you want a true dine in experience. (Only tiny complaint...wish they were open more hours!) read more

We got two pizzas. A 12 inch into 18 inch. The outer part of the crust was great, and keeps this rating a four. The middle crust could've been done a little more. The cheese to sauce ratio is a little bit off as you can see from the picture. The sauce was also too sweet. We had high expectations and had been really looking forward to trying this place. The place was packed so they must be doing something right but we were a little disappointed. read more

Pizzeria DiLauro - Pizza Near Me - Chagrin Falls, Ohio

The pizza is exceptional for the region. We'd done takeout from here before, and if that was the end of the story, this would be a five star review. The pizza stood out so much that we wanted to go back for the full experience and dine-in. That was a mistake. It's essentially takeout only but they have a few tables available. It's all self service, order at the counter, get your own plates, utensils, napkins, soft-drinks, etc. They seem to have the staff and atmosphere to offer a real restaurant experience but just want to. It was a very off putting experience, I'll stick to takeout. The pizza is very good. read more

Every time I call to order a pizza they said 1 hour and 45 minutes! It wasn't even dinner time! Ridiculous! They are not that busy, they must be understaffed. It takes 4 minutes to cook a pizza. I will not return. read more

The first time we had it the sauce and cheese combo was perfect, but it was thick Chicago style and too doughy. So we thought let's go for the thin because we loved everything but the crust. Soooo disappointed it did not taste like the sauce from our first time. The flavor profile could have been Dominoes or Marcos or any of those. Sad as we were so pumped. Lots of people do like it so try it. They are very nice people. BTW you can't get fresh green peppers they have some roasted peppers ... ugh. read more

If you love pizza, you will love Pizzeria DiLauro! They know what they are doing. It is worth the long drive to get good pizza. The owner is a master at pizza making! Salad was great, and gelato is excellent. read more

Wow!!! Just go! As we always do, we consulted Yelp when we found ourselves in a city we've never been, to help us decide what to have for dinner. The reviews for Pizzeria DiLauro convinced us that we must go. The set up is nice; as they have a dining room for families and also have the lounge next door for the 21+ crowd. We snagged two seats at the bar and were greeted quickly. One of the reasons we were drawn to this place was the reviews and photos of their house made meatballs. We quickly learned that their house made meatballs are only available on Wednesdays but the pizzas coming out of the kitchen looked incredible so we knew we were still going to have a great dinner. We chose the Luca pizza: pepperoni, pickled jalapenos and a drizzle of hot honey for good measure. The pizza was perfection! A beautiful, thin, crunchy crust, with a light sauce that let the toppings shine. I wouldn't change a thing about this pizza! The cocktails were well made and refreshing, as well. Two things I'd recommend: go early on Friday if you want to avoid a wait. We got there at 345p and had no problem getting a seat. But when we left at 515p, there were at least 15 groups patiently waiting for a table. Second recommendation - get the homemade cannoli! We had the orange cream on this visit and WOW was it delicious!! We will definitely be back - on a Wednesday to try the meatballs!!!! read more

The food was exactly what we were told. Busy restaurant but h the ambiance was welcoming, like we were part of the community. The pizzas were great and the lone person that ordered a hamburger was very delighted. The waitress was very nice and greeted us with a smile. She had great recommendations from the menu. I definitely recommend this restaurant! read more

Excellent pizza. Thin crust cooked well. Generous serving of toppings. Fast takeout. Don't skip out on the salads - the dressing and portions are great. When dining in have a cool attached bar in addition to the main pizzeria. read more

Pizza was outstanding and worth every penny. We had a large pepperoni and sausage without oil. The crispy of the NY style pizzeria was off the charts. Best in Ohio. read more

Pizza came out quickly & was some of the best I've had - gelato was a hit too. I'm not out this way often but would definitely come back.

ordered the sicilian with two toppings. it's good sauce and dough but they really skimp on cheese and topping. Are supplies that expensive because they charge enough for the pizza and toppings. come on DiLauro you can do better than that. read more

A newer staple to the Chagrin Valley area. We have been here many times since it has opened. The pizza is the best in the area. Slightly on the expensive side but worth it. Next to the takeout spot they have a little bar and eating area. No kids allowed. I guess I get it. Service has always been friendly and prompt. Decent enough beer/wine/booze selection but the real star is the pies!! read more

Exalent! Great pizza and nice friendly atmosphere. Try the Sicilian Pizza Really good.

Got a 18" pepperoni and a 12" mushroom. Both were really good. Really really good. Everybody was friendly. And busy! Lots of pizzas coming out of the kitchen. The seating area is small and not full service. They bring the food out to you, but you throw your own stuff away when you are done. It was very clean. There is "The Lounge" right through a door by the counter. But we did not go over there, due to being with our kids. but I believe that is full service and and has the same menu items, and more! We will be back! read more

Delicious pie and a fun environment for the family because of its casual nature and touch of nostalgia. Seating is 'seat yourself' style so it's a bit harder to snag a table when it's colder, but in warmer months there are also tables available outside. The pizza is delicious, definitely recommend the one with the spicy sausage. The gelato is also yummy, the perfect cherry on top of a casual Italian experience (and you can take pints to go)! read more

If you like the barstools NY style pizza, you'll enjoy their cheese pizza. Very good. Similar pizzas around the Cleveland area would be Il Rione, Lil Ronnie's, and the old downtown Cleveland Vincenza's. I would say their cheese is on par with Il Rione, which was my favorite in the area. The 18" will easily feed three hungry adults. Will definitely go back...many times. read more

Really great pizza. Easy to order. Def a fav local pizza place (if you like a new york style pizza...which is my favorite type of pizza)

Fantastic pizza! New york style thin crust, the best sauce and cheese, cooked to perfection! must try the New York Meatball, Pepperoni Hot Honey, and the Tiff! The Burrata appetizer is to die for and pair it with a classic lime margarita from their lounge! This place does it all! They make their own gelato to boot! Espresso in an affagato as dessert is a must! Next time you're anywhere near, swing in! You will not be disappointe! read more

The food was very good. Some of the pizzas are interesting and also very good. The service could be a little bit better but it was fine in today's world and the ambience is really very nice. read more

Absolutely delicious! We ordered in person and the service was very quick; was able to get the pizza within 15 minutes. Options to sit inside or take out. Staff was very friendly as well! 10/10 would highly recommend. read more

Top 3 pizzas in Cleveland area are Il Rione, Cent's and Pizzeria DiLauro. My pops was from NYC and I have been a fan of the style since I was a small child. Not many places around here do Sicilian style which is good to see. I haven't tried that style here but it looks promising. The NY style cheese was delicious and true to form. Drove my mom out here for a pizza about a year ago and we were very pleased. It was a far drive from Lakewood and worth every second of it. read more

Wonderful pizza! I ordered the half cheese and cremini mushrooms with a side of their homemade ranch. If you want a good pizza, go to them!

I've been following this spot on Instagram since it randomly came across my feed, while they were still building it out! I finally got to check it out and not do my usual chain restaurant pizza. I ordered on a Friday evening for carry out, forgetting just how busy a pizza joint can be as my off days fall during the week! Ordering online was easy using Toast but my wait was 105 minutes. No biggie, I got some stuff done around the house and headed over with 5 minutes to spare. There's a pickup window but I wanted to go inside. Very lively indoors, almost every table occupied both in and out. I believe one of the owners (Tiff?) was up front handing out orders with another lady at the register. Everybody was energetic and friendly. They let me know that my order should be coming up soon. I had an 18" Arrabiata and a 12" BLT. They were both checked before they were handed to me and Tiff let me know that the arugula and balsamic were in a little bag for me to dress the pizza when I got home. No wilted greens for this girl! I also ordered a scoop of Cookie Butter Gelato. Soooooooo good! I should have ordered another scoop for my husband. He ended up getting a small bite and the melted remains of what I brought home. Pizza was delicious, toppings generous, and pricing reasonable for this east coast inspired pie. We'll definitely be back! read more

I just moved back to Northeast Ohio after living on the East Coast for 20 years. It has been very hard to find a good New York style pizza since so much of what's available here seems to have a thicker crust. My family is admittedly pizza snobs, so it's hard to find something to please us all. While the pizza here is not true foldable New York slices, it is as close as we've found and it's consistently excellent. It's evident that the staff cares about the food they're putting out there! The crust is thin and chewy, but holds up the toppings well. They cook it well done, which is perfect to make sure the crust isn't soggy. The pizzas are unique and always tasty. It's my family's new favorite pizza place! read more

When a friend said that this was the closest she had ever tasted to East Coast pizza, I had to try. I went early because I heard it can get pretty jammed up later in the evening, so my pizza was ready in 20 minutes, and I was beyond impressed with the quick friendly service. I also was impressed with the cleanliness of the restaurant - maybe my pizza places are normally a little more "seasoned." The pizza may have been like East Coast pizza, but it reminded me of my favorite pizza place growing up outside of Pittsburgh. I've pretty much hunted my whole life to find a pie that was similar to Pub and Pizza and have never even come close. This is it though and when I feel like grabbing a quick pizza even though it's 40 minutes from my house, this will be the place I go. Thin delicious crust. Sauce that rides the rail between sweet and spicy. Gloriously crisp pepperonis. read more

Great East coast style of pizza. We ate in the lounge where you can beer wine and drinks. I would like to see more craft beer on tap

Got the Margarita pizza which is the best pizza here! Not only would i give hit a high ranking but it would rank high on dave portnoy's list also! read more

Superb! Absolutely top ranked NE OH pizza. In the same league as ilRione, Vero, and Citizen Pie. DiLauro is NY style where the others are more Neapolitan. High quality ingredients, great under-carriage (zero flop), nice crunch. Portnoy would be proud. Broad selection of pizzas, cannolis/gelatos, salad, apps. Extra special to sit at The Lounge next store to enjoy adult beverages with your pie. And, you can also order an excellent burger from Retro Burger if you're so inclined. Run, don't walk, to Pizzeria DiLauro. You'll be grateful. read more

First time trying this. The staff was friendly when walking in to pickup (no dining in right now). I ordered the "Luca." According to the website it's a "classic cheese base, pepperoni, pickled jalapeño, and Mike's Hot Honey." Upon opening the box, it was a bit of a bummer to find out that the hot honey is just a packet they give you versus a key ingredient to this pie. The pizza is on the thin side and a bit greasy. I didn't really taste the pickled part of the jalapeños. Just tasted like an ordinary pepper. Overall flavor was okay. Nothing to write home about. The crust is on the sweeter side, which I generally like, but it literally tastes like they just added a sweetener to the crust itself, not the pizza as a whole. The menu has a nice variety and I'd probably try this again, hoping for something a bit more flavorful with one of the other options. read more

We have been meaning to try Pizzeria DiLauro since they opened, and finally did. It is delicious! I love east coast style pizza, and this is the closest I have found to NYC a style pizza in the Cleveland area. The dough is crispy and delicious, and the cheese is just greasy enough! The pepperoni is the same style used at Geraci's, which is my favorite pepperoni. At $20 for an 18 inch cheese pie, we probably won't be eating here when it's all 4 of us, but it's a great treat when it's just the two of us! read more

Love this small Italian pizzeria! Small and cozy and fabulous pizza. They even have an adults only bar area. No frills!

THE.BEST.PIZZA. And salads. And meatballs. And gelato. Add to it how owners Adam and Tiffany, as well as Cody, Grandma Debbie, ET AL, make you feel welcome and special every time you come? This pizzeria is, simply, PERFECTION. Extraordinary food and extraordinary owners/family. (I may just need to be adopted into the DiLauro family -- am just saying!!) I am a forever fan!!! read more

Excellent pies, fresh toppings, good crust. Try the sides and make it a family meal that everyone will enjoy.

Pizzeria DiLauro is my favorite. We have never had an issue, always consistently delicious, and they quality check every order before passing it on to the customer. We love adding Mike's Hot Honey to every pie. Our faves include cheese, cheese with red onion and mushroom, white, and pepperoni. Always well-done. The salad with green goddess dressing is fantastic. Another favorite. They are always on time with our takeaway and always greet me with a, Hi Lindsay!, I feel like Norm! Every employee is smiling and polite. And yes, we are there a lot. Because DiLauro is THE BEST! read more

Oh my, this is delicious pizza. Deliciously crispy crust, zingy tomato sauce, and just the perfect amount of cheese, browned to perfection. It's a great concept. Just be aware that it's more self-serve. You order at the counter and then grab a table (not a lot of tables) and they bring the food to you. You bus your own table. But the food is completely worth it! Even the green salad had crisp ingredients and the burrata appetizer is absolutely stunning. What a gem of a place. read more
