Best overall pick
The Works Pizza Co. Kenwood
Near Kenwood Towne Centre • Brick-Oven Craft Pizzeria And Bar • Best For Creative Specialty Pies
A polished but relaxed spot where crisp, blistered crusts meet smart topping combos and a solid tap list.
The Works brings a more cheffy approach to the Kenwood pizza scene, with thoughtfully composed pies and a crust that balances chew and char. The menu leans into creative ingredients without losing sight of the classics, so you can order a straightforward pepperoni or a loaded specialty and feel like you chose well either way. It is the kind of place that works as easily for date night as it does for a laid-back post-shopping dinner.

Classic Cincinnati standby
LaRosa's Pizzeria Kenwood
Kenwood Retail Corridor • Family-Friendly Cincinnati-Style Pizzeria • Go-To For Big Groups And Carryout
A roomy, kid-friendly outpost of Cincinnati’s hometown chain, known for its sweet-leaning sauce and build-your-own pies.
If you grew up in Greater Cincinnati, LaRosa’s is probably what “pizza night” meant, and the Kenwood location keeps that tradition going. The crust, sauce, and shredded provolone are all dialed to their familiar local profile, which makes it especially appealing for mixed crowds who want something everyone will recognize. With plenty of booths, party-friendly deals, and fast carryout, it is a reliable option for youth teams, office lunches, and low-effort family dinners.
03
Detroit-style standout
Taglio Montgomery
Montgomery • Detroit-Style And Thin-Crust Pizzeria • For Crispy, Cheesy Edges
Known for its caramelized corner pieces and inventive toppings, Taglio turns thick, airy squares into something craveable.
Taglio’s Montgomery shop is a quick hop from Kenwood and worth the drive if you like your pizza in hefty, sauce-striped slabs. The Detroit-style pies come with a light, focaccia-like interior, a crisp bottom, and cheese that runs all the way to the pan for those coveted crunchy edges. Seasonal specials and bold toppings keep regulars entertained, while the option for thinner pies covers anyone not in the mood for a heavy slice.
04
New York-style favorite
Brooklyn Pizza & Pasta
Montgomery Road Corridor • New York-Style Slice Shop And Pasta Joint • Classic Slice And Red-Sauce Fix
Foldable slices, big pies, and straightforward pasta dishes make this a comforting, no-nonsense stop just up the road from Kenwood.
Brooklyn Pizza & Pasta leans into a New York sensibility, from the wide, thin slices to the straightforward counter service vibe. The crust is sturdy enough to fold yet light enough that a second slice feels inevitable, and toppings stay pretty traditional: think pepperoni curls, sausage, and plenty of cheese. With pasta, subs, and stromboli on the menu, it works well when some in the group want pizza and others want a heartier red-sauce plate.

Dewey's Pizza Harper's Point

Dewey’s at Harper’s Point is a short drive up Montgomery Road and a staple for many northside families. The menu mixes reliable standbys with more adventurous options, like pies topped with fig jam, roasted garlic, or house-made sausage, plus genuinely good salads for balance. Open kitchens and friendly service keep the room buzzing, so it is easy to linger over another slice or a pint while the kids stay happily occupied.
