Best overall pick
Biga Wood Fired Pizzeria
Chillicothe Road In Kirtland • Wood-Fired Pizzeria • Wood-Fired Standout
A cozy, locally loved spot turning out blistered, wood-fired pies with a distinct smoky edge.
Biga leans into a simple formula: a super-hot wood-fired oven, quality toppings, and an easygoing dining room that feels comfortably lived-in rather than fussy. The pizzas come out with crisp, leopard-spotted crusts and just enough chew to keep each bite interesting. It is the place locals suggest when you ask where to sit down for an above-average pie without leaving Kirtland.
02
Classic family pick
Angelo's Pizzeria
Euclid Chardon Road In Kirtland • Family Italian Restaurant And Pizzeria • Best For Families
A friendly, old-school Italian spot where pizza, pasta, and big family tables all share the spotlight.
Angelo's feels like the neighborhood Italian restaurant you grew up with, right down to the red-sauce comfort dishes backing up the pizza menu. The pies lean hearty, with a thicker crust, generous cheese, and toppings that cater to classic tastes more than trends. It is a natural choice for family dinners, youth sports teams, or anyone who wants pizza with a full sit-down meal built around it.
03
Neighborhood favorite
Down the Block
South Kirtland Near Schools • Casual Takeout And Slice Shop • Grab-And-Go Favorite
A low-key counter spot ideal for grabbing a hot pizza or quick slices on busy weeknights.
Down the Block keeps things straightforward: friendly counter service, dependable pies, and fast ticket times that make it easy to swing by on the way home. The crust strikes a middle ground between soft and crisp, and toppings run from basic pepperoni to loaded combinations that feed a crowd. It is the kind of place locals keep on speed dial for school nights, game days, and last-minute cravings.

Worth-the-drive pick
Very Good Pizza Co.
Chillicothe Road In Chesterland • Classic-Crust Neighborhood Pizzeria • Best Nearby Variety
A short drive from Kirtland, this busy Chesterland shop offers a wide range of pies from simple to fully loaded.
Very Good Pizza Co. lives up to its name with well-balanced crusts, ample toppings, and a menu that lets you swing from plain cheese to specialty combinations without overthinking it. The atmosphere is relaxed and practical, geared toward carryout and casual meals rather than a long night out. For Kirtland residents, it is an easy option when you want something a little different without driving into the city.

Delivery go-to
Master Pizza (Mentor)
Mentor Retail Corridor • Regional Chain Pizzeria • Best For Delivery And Game Nights
A reliable regional favorite with customizable pizzas and quick delivery from nearby Mentor.
The Mentor branch of Master Pizza gives Kirtland an easy route to consistent, crowd-pleasing pies, especially when you want dinner to show up at the door. Their crust options, sauces, and toppings are highly mix-and-match, making it simple to keep both traditionalists and adventurous eaters happy in the same order. It is a smart move for parties, game nights, or any time convenience matters as much as the pizza itself.
