    Half pep half deluxe.

    First pizza is great. I love there pizza. Itilain sub was good. Great flavor , perfect amount of toppings and well cooked. Service is ok , sometimes them seem annoyed when you call and order but the food makes up for it. Def a place we get often

    I picked up some pizza and bread twists from Rotolo's one evening. They have a slick online ordering system and my order was ready on time. The "Palloncini" were cheese-filled bread twists and they were really tasty. The appetizer wasn't too garlicky and I was happy with the generous portion size and dipping sauce. My boyfriend loves Hawaiian pizza and he was happy with Rotolo's version thereof. The large pizza was plenty for a group of 4 and the crust and cheese were tasty. Overall, Rotolo's isn't a bad spot for Ohio-style pizza.

    I can confirm these are the cheesiest Pizzas I have ever see and tasted, but something really really catch my eye and heart is that I ordered a family Spaguettis with meat sauce. OMG! You are not wrong with this Pizzeria. Only take out no dinning inn.

    Wow! If you want a flavorful delicious original Italian pizza, this is your only stop! I cannot say enough how great this is. You have to try it for yourself. The people here are amazing too! You will not be dissatisfied and I will definitely be coming back in!! Thank you!

    One pepperoni on some pieces, puddled cheese in middle, no cheese on some pieces and partially burnt

    This was my first time at Rotolo's and I ordered a medium pepperoni pizza with banana peppers on half. The flavor was good but the cheese was puddled in the middle of the pie and there was no cheese on some of the outer pieces. Also much of the crust as burnt and several pieces only had one lonely piece of pepperoni. A little disappointed but would probably go back. Only next time I would ask them to evenly distribute the toppings and not burn the crust

    Leonardo's Pizza's reopening prompted me to revisit another old classic pizza place - Rotolo's. I checked out their original location here in Grandview about a week ago. It's been years since my last visit and now? I'm a fan again. Medium Mushroom for $11.75. Came with plenty of cheese and mushrooms, although they could have used a little more mushrooms. It has a really great tasting crust which was a combination of chewy and crispy. It's that crust where you get the crunch on the outside and then the chewiness is inside. A rich, fresh tasting tomato sauce rounded out the pie that was cut into squares, as it should be. 15 minutes from call in to pick up. (carry out only) Hot and steamy - I couldn't wait to get home. Another Columbus Classic Pizza and a solid choice.

    Rotolo's was way way back in my history books of pizza. At the urging of our fearless YELP* leader, Jayme, encouraging take-out on April 11 Rotolo's hit the spot. The choices were; (a) VERDURA - veggie pizza medium; (b) MAMA Rotolo's tossed salad with vinagarette and; (c) Veggie sub. Pick-up time was 25 minutes and I arrived to a piping hot array of food. Back home things were divvied up and the eating fun began. I have been missing out on Rotolo's tasty cheese and full range of fixins. Even though I went full veggie across the board everything was delicious. Way to go, ROTOLO'S! Covid-19? Kiss my backside of The Moon!

    Best pizza in Columbus. Don't go anywhere else. All you need is one slice and you'll know I'm right.

    Haven't had for years, but remember it as delish. It's nice and cheesy. I used to go there after work.

We also got sat fairly quickly with a group of 6 on Wednesday, which is when they have their buy three any wood-fired pizzas for $45 deal. Will definitely go back!

    I usually love Paulie Gee's Short North, which made this experience especially disappointing. We…read morespent over $80 on a to-go order that included two Gina's Gem, a big cheese pizza, and a salad. The pizza arrived cold but was still edible. Unfortunately, the Gina's Gem was nothing like what was advertised. I was expecting warm, crusty bread with a roasted cheese dip on the side so you could tear pieces of bread and dip them into the cheese. Instead, the cheese had already been spread directly onto the bread and toasted together. Because of that, the bread lost the texture you would expect--it wasn't crusty or dippable at all. It ended up soft, almost soggy, and the cheese was baked onto the bread rather than being a dip. The whole appeal of the dish was supposed to be the warm bread with the roasted cheese to dip into, and that part was completely missing. Included with the bread was a hot honey that missed the mark on being "hot" and some kind of jam. These options just made everything even more soft....which should have been impossible. The salad was actually the best part of the meal - even though it was a bit spicy. I've always had good experiences here in the past, so this was a big letdown--especially for the price. I just wish the to-go version of the dish matched how it's described, or that expectations were set correctly when ordering. Unfortunately, this experience made me lose all trust in ordering from here again. I can't believe we waited until exactly 3pm (when they opened) to order this.... At the very least the pizza should have been hot.

    Finding this place took a little effort since it's tucked away in the back of a bar. Once you walk…read morein, you'll spot a small window where you place your order. The food does take some time, so be ready to wait and maybe grab a drink while you hang out. The pizza was really good, but definitely on the heavier side. Wings were decent. Come hungry or bring a few friends so you can share and try more without tapping out too early.

    You ever walk into a place and think, there's no way something special is hiding in here?…read more Yeah....That was me. An old tavern in Columbus. Dim. Historic. The kind of spot where you expect a solid beer and maybe some decent bar food. What you don't expect? One of the best Detroit-style pizzas of your life hiding behind a window in the back like some carb-based speakeasy. And when I say hidden, I mean hidden. No flashy signage. No "best pizza in town" ego. Just a quiet little window cranking out square pies that deserve a standing ovation. I ordered the classic red top -- already a bold move -- and added pesto because balance matters and I like to live a little. The result? Beyond reproach. Fresh, loaded toppings. Sauce with depth. And that crust... that beautiful Detroit crust. Crispy edges with that caramelized cheese halo, but still chewy and pillowy inside. The textural contrast is what separates amateurs from legends -- and this? This was legend-level execution. Easily top 3 Detroit-style pizzas I've had. And that's not a casual statement. If you don't understand the life-altering power of true Detroit-style pizza, I regret to inform you... you have not been living. Go find the window in the back. Trust me.
