Best overall pick
Dewey's Pizza
Summit Mall Area • Bustling Sit-Down Pizzeria With Craft Toppings • Go-To For Dine-In Pizza And Beer
Dewey's balances classic comfort with creative pies, making it the spot locals suggest when everyone wants something a little different.
Expect a lively dining room, open kitchen views, and a menu that treats toppings like a playground rather than an afterthought. Their specialty pies and seasonal combinations are well-suited to sharing, and the crust is sturdy enough to handle generous ingredients without going floppy. It’s an easy choice when you want a full sit-down meal near the mall rather than just a quick slice.

Best for families and big groups
Danny Boy's Italian Eatery
Ghent Road Corridor • Retro Italian-American Restaurant And Pizza Bar • Crowd-Pleaser For Long, Relaxed Dinners
Danny Boy's pairs oversized pizzas with a throwback Italian vibe that works well for birthdays, teams, and family gatherings.
Pies here lean hearty, with edge-to-edge toppings and plenty of cheese, backed up by a full menu of pastas and subs. The booths, music, and memorabilia give it a cozy, slightly old-school feel that keeps kids entertained while adults linger over another slice. It’s the kind of place you park for the evening rather than just swing through.
03
Neighborhood takeout standby
Romeo's Pizza Montrose
Montrose Shopping District • Carryout And Delivery-Focused Ohio Pizza Chain • Reliable Choice For Weeknight Delivery
Romeo’s is the Montrose answer when you want a sweet-sauced, loaded pizza dropped at your door without overthinking it.
The menu leans into bold flavors—think sweet tomato sauce, thick layers of cheese, and specialty pies that pile on meat or veggies. Crust options and consistent bake make it easy to please mixed tastes in one order. It’s a staple for nearby neighborhoods on busy nights when cooking is off the table and comfort pizza is the goal.
04
Best fast custom pie
Blaze Pizza Fairlawn
Fairlawn Commercial Strip • Fast-Fired, Build-Your-Own Pizza Counter • Quick Pick For Customizable Pies
Blaze is the speediest way near Montrose-Ghent to get a personal pizza built exactly your way and cooked in just a few minutes.
You move down the line picking sauces, cheeses, and toppings, then watch your thin-crust creation hit the high-heat oven. It’s especially handy for lunch breaks, pre-movie bites, or feeding a group where everyone wants something different. The bright, casual space and predictable timing make it a reliable stop in the middle of the big-box shopping runs.
05
Worth-the-drive classic
Guiseppe's Pizza
Short Drive Toward North Hill Akron • Old-School Akron Pizza Shop • Best For Fans Of Classic Neighborhood Joints
Guiseppe's isn’t in Montrose-Ghent proper, but locals happily make the short drive for its no-nonsense, well-loved pies.
This is the kind of place where the focus is on consistent dough, familiar toppings, and a bake that keeps regulars coming back decade after decade. The pizza leans traditional rather than trendy, with a sturdy crust and straightforward flavor that hits especially well on low-key Friday nights. If you’re staying on the west side and don’t mind a short hop into Akron, it’s a solid way to taste a local staple.
