    St. Francis Apizza on Erie Ave is a deal that cannot be beat! This pizza is as good as any in the whole city. For the price and size, it is an unbeatable value. I had the Erie Ave. It was a bomb! Hot honey, pepperoni, jalapeños with basil on the side. This takeout only spot has my pizza ready before the estimated time. Ordering was painless and pick up was swift. This is my new go to spot for a great pizza!

    half burrata margarita, half vegan pepperoni pineapple- it was ok

    Adding a star because of the great customer service I received after my review. The manager reached out, apologized and gave me a full refund. This is why we try to support local!

    Pizza time!

    My fiancee and I had been to their location in Oakley and loved it so we decided to try this one too. The big difference is that this location is carryout only. I'll admit I was taken off guard when I was calling in out order and was told they have a different menu than the Oakley location and they don't do Chicago-style pizzas like Oakley does. Still, we're flexible, and we were wanting some good pizza. We opted for a NY style 16" with sausage and mushrooms. It was ready in about 20 minutes and was just being put on the front counter as soon as I arrived. Timing is everything. Aside from pizza, they also have salads, cookies, gelato, and bottles of wine and brews from Wandering Monsters to take home as well. Of course, the pizza was fantastic, and we'll certainly be ordering carryout from them again.

    For carry out only. Although I did notice a couple of outdoor tables- so weather permitting. We placed an online order for a 1/2 Erie Ave pizza and 1/2 Cincinnati supreme. Thin crust with a nice crisp. Pizza was ready when stated and the staff were amiable. The ingredients were fresh and flavorful. The crust was an amazing thin and chewy-crunchy one. Price is moderate.

    My friend and I ordered a custom pizza with pepperoni, spinach, and ricotta and it was good! Crust was not my preferred style but all the ingredients were of quality and tasted great. The restaurant is takeout only (although there are some folding tables outside) and we ordered online. The pizza was likely ready after 20 minutes but it was still hot when we picked it up after 40 min.

    Monday special, tavern style with sausage

    Phenomenal pizza. Highly worth a visit. Pizza was piping hot, fresh and delicious. Online ordering was clutch as I didn't know how busy they would be. Was able to eat outside. Plenty of tables to enjoy your pizza and a beverage. Owner was super nice and we chatted about restaurants around town. Shout out to him for providing awesome service and being genuine. Best tavern style pizza I've had in some time. Visit this spot. You will not be disappointed. Can't wait to come back and try their east coast style pies that are served on other days besides Monday. I love all pizza so both would definitely be up my alley :)

    Half supreme half pepperoni.

    One of my top 10 pizzas. Incredible crust. Quick service. Carry out only. We had a couple slices tailgating style. Well done!!

    Great pizza, great salad, good selections but not as many at the Oakley location. The ingredients were very fresh and the Cesar dressing was delicious. Some red sauce got on the white pizza but can't complain too much. Garlic sauce was mainly oil so would recommend another dipping sauce.

    Ordered: Erie Ave We were at a nearby restaurant for lunch and I saw so many high rated reviews of the best pizza in Cincinnati that we had to stop by to get a second lunch. The reviews were not wrong- it is currently the best pizza that I've had in Cincinnati! On Saturday, they have a 10 inch special for half the price. The pizza was still warm when we got home and every bite was perfect! The crispy crust, quality pepperoni, hot honey and the sauce was everything! I appreciated the fresh basil on the side. I wished they had an indoor seating area so we didn't have to wait to get home to eat it.

    Made my way in on a Monday for their take on Chicago Thin Tavern Pizza. Just one size, 14" and only on Mondays. Dough fermented for a week. This was my first time here, so I'm guessing regular style is New Haven. I enjoyed my pizza and they even pie cut it for me. Pepperoni with hot honey hit the spot. Could have used a couple more minutes in the oven. Just learned they just opened a dine in restaurant in Oakley, but closed Mon-Tue. They will have tavern style there the rest of the week. This place is only to-go.

    St. Francis Apizza is one of my favorite spots in town. The crust is what makes this pizza. It is crispy and not too thick. One of my favorite things they do is Tavern Style Mondays. I'm from Chicago and its hard to find any square cut pizza here. They do it so well and thin, plus when you add the cup-and-char pepperoni it is spot on. The only thing I wish is they had was sit down so I could eat it right away! It is carry out only, so I have to wait till I get home to eat it!!

    Had to find a descent spot here in Cincinnati so this was the one my son and I tried out. Ordered a pizza with half of 2 of their specialty pies in one pie. Descent quality ingredients, nice flavor palette, crust was a bit tough but overall good. Ceasar salad was good as their dressing was homemade. Worth a try if in Cincinnati.

    Sausage and green olives

    This is the best pizza in Cincy, hands down. Much passion and research has gone into crafting the perfect pie by the owner/staff, and the results show. Perfect amount of crisp in the crust and undercarriage while also having a nice chew. Sauce, cheese, and toppings are fresh and flavorful. As near perfect as it gets in the area.

    My only complaint is wishing there was an eat-in option. The crust got a little tough on the ride home but overall, it was a great pizza

    Honestly best thin style pizza in the city and the added sides of basil are so good. The pepperoni with hot honey is amazing.

    I will do this in the words of Henry Ford himself:…read more "The grease in this place is of the good kind... the kind that smells of honest work and assembly lines, not the rancid oils you find in those fly-by-night lunch counters. I found myself halfway through the signature burger, marveling at the assembly--not a bolt out of place, everything in its proper station and the lettuce crisp as a cold-rolled steel sheet. A man appreciates a system that functions without chatter or delay. Sitting here near the assembly plant's ghost, I couldn't help but admire the vintage fittings; they've managed to capture the spirit of progress without the clutter of modern inefficiency. My wife has a constitution that demands specific care, and the server handled her requirements with the precision of a master machinist, wasting no time on unnecessary pleasantries but delivering exactly what was ordered. The restrooms, surprisingly, have a sense of humor, though humor is a luxury I generally leave to the salesmen. It is a good price for an honest meal, constructed with a respect for speed that would make a production line foreman nod in approval. It is a well-oiled operation and I shall return to see if they can maintain this level of output." And normal: From the moment i stepped in... the atmosphere hit me like a wave. It was a perfect blend of vintage charm and modern sophistication with antiques that told stories of a bygone era. The restrooms while quirky, added a unique touch to the experience. What truly stood out was the service. It was swift and efficient, with our server going above and beyond to accommodate my wife's allergies. Grant our server did amazing job ! I ordered the Ford signature burger, and it was an absolute masterpiece. The flavors were perfectly balanced, and the quality was exceptional. The presentation was top-notch, and the speed at which it arrived was impressive. This was one of the best burgers I've ever had, and i couldn't be more satisfied with my dining experience. Overall, Ford's Garage is a must-visit for anyone looking for a high-quality, efficient, and enjoyable meal. The prices are reasonable, and the atmosphere is truly special. i highly recommend this place to anyone who loves food and wants to experience a unique dining experience. - Atmosphere: 9/10 - Food Quality: 9/10 - Service/Flow: 10/10 - Value: 8/10 - Would Return: Yes. Coming back soon.

    My friends and I came on a busy Saturday evening after shopping at the plaza. We put our name down…read morefor a 3 person table and even though they estimated 20-30 min, we got a text about 10 minutes later while we were in a nearby store. Our server was a new hire but friendly. The decor of the place is fun and on theme. I ordered a chicken dish and it was flavorful and a large portion. My boyfriend enjoyed the beer selection but the portion size for his fries seemed small, especially with the pricing.
