    Definitely on the expensive side. Around $20 per medium pizza. Not too salty, depth of flavor was good. Would come back to try the other pizzas.

    Nice artisan pizza. High quality ingredients. The only thing that sucks is that Sweet Moses Ice Cream went out of business. That was a nice Detroit Street one two punch!

    Came here with a party of four on a Saturday night, and they're able to see us promptly and take our orders quickly. The service here was great, with water coming out quickly, and the waiters being attentive. On the advice of the waiter, the four of us got two large 17 inch pizzas, which was a good amount if you're hungry, and we did have about half a pizza left over. We ordered the porky pig, which has fig and prosciutto, and is absolutely delicious. It's on the sweeter side, but we all really enjoyed it. The Socrates' revenge is a great veggie pizza, and the fresh tomatoes were a big hit with our group. Definitely recommend this place for an impromptu Saturday night dinner and unique and delicious pizzas.

    This is technically my second time trying Dewey's Pizza as I had it at a party years ago and liked it. But this was my first time actually visiting the location myself and, boy oh boy, the parking situation is TERRIBLE! I really had to work to get this pizza. Was it worth it? Let's find out! I ordered a half and half of Porky Fig and Yukon Cornelius on an 11" pizza. It cost me $18.50 (YIKES!) and, even with an hour's heads up, it was ready about ten minutes after I arrived. Oh well, no big deal. Let's move on to taste. So from what I gather, this is a mix between thin and pan pizza style crust. The crust is pretty flat but this isn't 100% a thin crust pizza. I don't have a preference either way and liked the taste of the crust. Like I said, I got two different specialties on my 11" pizza. The Porky Fig was very creative! I enjoyed the sweetness of the fig jam underneath the cheese. I should have asked for it without the gorgonzola. If it didn't have the stinky cheese, it would have been perfect. Despite the stinky cheese, the Porky Fig was far and away the better of the two. The Yukon Cornelius pizza is Dewey's versiom of a loaded baked potato. But Angelo's in Lakewood does that combination better. Dewey's needed a lot more toppings than what I had on mine. Also, why did my pizza taste slightly of anchovies? It was super weird. Don't bother with Dewey's loaded potato pizza, honestly. I ate it all because I am a glutton for pizza, but I should have opted for a different specialty. Overall, the (mostly) tasty pizzas that took me out of my comfort zone, but the price is way WAY too high! $13-14 dollars would have been perfect. And if you can get someone ELSE to pick up the pizza for you, it'll make for a better experience.

    Looking for a good pizza place in Cleveland close to CIM. Got good reviews so tried it. Good pizza with lots of toppings and cold beer. Friendly staff...would recommend!

    We've heard amazing things about Dewey's Pizza and decided to try it out in the hopes that we would find our new favorite pizza place. Although I don't think Dewey's topped the list, I think what they do really well is bang for buck. This was an enormous pizza for quite cheap, and they did not skimp on the toppings. There is a window at the front where you can see the pizzas being made, which makes for an exciting experience for kids. The environment is casual, and very familial. Overall, this was a great pizza place and while it's not my favorite, I still really loved my time here!

    Good wine selection and delicious pizza. Their toppings are great. I will love any place that lets me get goat cheese on my pizza. Besides the screaming children next to us, the waiters were very kind and the place had a good vibe.

    Day one of Cleveland Pizza Week and decided that I would give Dewey's in Cleveland Heights a try on my way home from work. Called in an order for a to go pizza, got there a bit early. I paid and was told I would have to wait about 10 minutes, time to check out the kitchen as they make pizzas and just hang. About 15 minutes I asked what was going on and they went back to the kitchen and grabbed the pizza off the top of the oven where it had been sitting for a bit; not the best first impression. Got the Caprice pizza which is made with fresh garlic, olive oil, blistered tomatoes, fresh basil and fresh mozzarella. The pie features thin crust, a bit chewy instead of being crisp, but nice flavor. The garlic and olive oil has a nice aroma but was a bit mild to my taste, I would have preferred more powerful garlic. The cheese was nice with just a bit of bite and a slight saltiness. The highlight of the pie were the tomatoes, vibrant and a bit sweet providing the most flavor they could. Overall the pizza worked well as a whole with all of the elements coming together to make a nice symphony of flavor. Overall I was happy with Dewey's but it helped that I only had to pay $8 during Pizza Week for the pie; I am not sure if I will give them another try. They need to be really aware of when the pizza is ready and to get it out of the kitchen and to the customer.

    Ready on time for pickup. House Salad was on point, but pizzas seemed pedestrian with not much of an Italian flare or taste.

    I could have SWORN I had written a review for Tommy's years ago as it is one of my visited…read morerestaurants in my whole 6 years in Cleveland, but apparently I haven't! So it is clear I love Tommy's, a famous and long established healthy-ish option in Cleveland Heights, as do many others. Back when I was on keto for 2 years straight, I got their salads and now that I've been off keto for 3 years, I stop in for a milkshake or an order of fries from time to time. Parking is abundant in the free garage across the street and there is usually a wait for a table. However, I have never taken my boyfriend to Tommy's in the 2 years we have been together - every time we have tried, it's been a holiday and they are closed. However, we finally dined here for a Sunday lunch in August of 2026 and as usual, I had a 5 star experience! He did too, BTW. Tip of the day - my bf and I skipped the line by sitting at the counter which was a super win as we also got to people watch and observe the chefs at work. Yay! The menu is huge and the prices are weird but everything is yummy and fresh. My chunky butt got the "Josh" milkshake- a cookie dough and banana milkshake of delicious sugary goodness ($7.80). It's my favorite milkshake! We shared a generous order of unsalted fries ($4.99) and dipped them in malt vinegar like champions. I've had both the milkshake and fries before but ordered something new for my main. My bf then got the "silver" corned beef pita sandwich ($14.30) and I got the falafel pita sandwich ($12.10). Soooooo good! And by the time our fresh pitas came out, I was getting full so I got to bring home leftovers! Another win! I do think my bill of nearly $50 was a bit too high but we had a good time and I did recently read that the monthly rent on this place is 7k, so I can see why the prices keep going up and up. Definitely make Tommy's a stop on your itinerary if you're in Cleveland!

Also last month I tried their restaurant week special (includes latte, panini, and choice of cookie or macaron). Ended up choosing the brown sugar latte (opted for oat milk), corned beef panini and gingerbread molasses cookie. All were good, the favorite and definitely would get again would be the latte. Also if you use the too good to go app, I love their bags (such a good variety with amazing value) which sell out in minutes. Definitely in my list of regular places to stop by.

The only downside was the guy who took my order. He wasn't particularly friendly or welcoming and honestly looked and sounded like he would rather be anywhere else.

The moment we pulled up, the owner…read more(Callaloo) was on the patio geillong up something smelling sweet & smoky with ths delicious aroma drifting into the evening air. He looked up with a broad grin and, in a warm Trinidadian accent, waved us toward an open spot beside the building. His welcome was so easy and sincere it felt less like arriving at a restaurant and more like being invited into someone's home. My girlfriend, her friend, and I were on our way to the Larkin Poe show at nearby Cain Park and decided to stop in first. Inside, we stepped into a tiny, cozy dining room--more postage stamp than restaurant--washed in bright Caribbean colors that seemed to glow under the lights. The walls, the warmth, the close quarters all gave the place an easy, island feel, as if Ohio had briefly slipped away. The music sealed it. Rhythms from Kes, Tano, and Full Blown rolled through the room, lively and unmistakable, bouncing off the walls and threading through the chatter. Every detail--the beat, the spice in the air, the easy laughter, the genuine hospitality--worked together so naturally that we couldn't help smiling. Before the first plate even arrived, it already felt like we'd been whisked off to Trinidad and Tobago. I ordered a side of jerk wings, my GF ordered fish tacos, amd her friend a burrito. I haven't had jerk this deliciously hot since my days at Brooklyn College and stopping on Flatbush for Jamaican food--but this was the first time a meal in Cleveland made me feel like I'd been dropped straight into Trinidad and Tobago. I will definitely be back for more. Save your appetite--this is the kind of meal that is truly memorable.

It has been on my want to try list for a while and, thanks to Too Good To Go, I snagged a mystery box of leftovers for $7.50 (retail states it is worth $21). It was hard to find a parking spot but once I did, I went inside to pick up my order. I was the only one inside but soon enough, the owner came out to greet me and pack up my surprise order. I just asked for no fish and he then asked if goat was fine. I was hoping for chicken in my box, but I didn't want to be too needy haha! I paid for a personal pie as well and head out, looking at my box once I got to my car. I was happy to see a generous portion of rice and beans but was a bit bummed that one of the two sides I should have gotten was missing. See picture. Upon getting home, I ate my "mysterious meal" and while I enjoyed the curry goat, rice and beans, and curried chana, I would have definitely chosen different things for myself, like the mac and cheese and the bone in chicken! Ah well. I guess I'll have to go back! I did enjoy the goat more than I thought I would have! Sadly, the pie crust of the sweet potato pie I got ($3.50) had that freezer taste. The filling itself was good but I was disappointed by the too long in the fridge taste of the crust. It was also a little too expensive for its size. Would not recommend. I'll pick up a mystery box again in the future for sure, but I doubt I'll get a dessert again.
