The true standout here is the wood-fired pizza. The crust has that perfect balance of chewy and crisp with a slight char from the oven, and the toppings feel thoughtfully chosen instead of overloaded. Their specialty pies tend to stand out more than the basics. I've been here twice and came away pleased both times.

We stayed with water but our server returned quickly to take our orders and was very attentive the entire time. My fiancé and I split a medium New York style hot honey and pepperoni pizza. It was perfection, thin and foldable the way I like. It was cut into 8 pieces so the perfect amount to get full and not feel completely stuffed. Now as a sweets lover the gelato really stole the show here. We tried the cookies and cream but the sweet cream base I could devour in gallons! It was perfectly sweet and rich in flavor. I will dream about this gelato for days to come. Overall, a cute and affordable place to stop and catch up with friends. Looking forward to coming back soon.

We had better service here than most "normal" sit down restaurants. And the food...not one item we have tried was bad, the vast majority have been the best in their category. Best mozzarella sticks: it's obvious it's a higher quality mozz than whatever everyone else uses. Crispy perfection! Best GF/cauliflower pizza: lots of toppings to choose from (though somehow chicken isn't an option on DD) and again, from the mushrooms to the sauce, you can taste the difference. They make the sauces in house! According to my husband, best Chicken Parm he has had since moving here! You get a healthy portion. And...best cannoli in the area! Growing up in a predominantly Italian and Polish area, I have been lucky to have REALLY good Italian pastries...and their cannoli was reminiscent of those times. This has been the ONLY cannoli in the greater Cincy area that is worth consuming, IMO. All in all, we would dine in at Il Gusto constantly, if we lived closer. Glad they're on DoorDash though! If you are in the Kenwood area, and want a break from the chaos and crowds, Il Gusto is close by!

We stopped in before a show at Southgate House. It was a Friday and we made reservations for 5:30…read more Reservations at this time were not needed; it was not crowded. The restaurant was clean and comfortable. They have outside seating, which could be nice in the right weather, though the area is just feet from the main drag. Our server was fine. I have no real recollection of them. We ordered a deep dish, looking to find a pizza as good as Zachary's in California. Bourbon House Pizza is not as good as Zachary's, but it is the best deep dish pizza we've tried in the Cincinnati area since we've been back in Cincinnati since 2021. We made our own pizza in an attempt to match our favorite - spinach and mushrooms. It was good. I enjoyed the sauce on top. Under the sauce, the cheese was very thick making the overall taste of the pizza very cheesy. We had a similarly cheese deep dish in Chicago. Our pizza at Bourbon House was better. I will say the crust is thick. I would have eaten the crust if there had only been two pieces per person. Since I was faced with potentially eating four pieces, I opted to skip the crust. One of our group asked if she could order from the kid's menu. The server had no issue with the request. Oddly enough, her meal was huge! We were all surprised it was a kid's meal. Our fourth ordered a small pizza. It looked like it had pineapple on it. I didn't ask how it was, but he ate every bite. It must have been a small and it was the perfect single serving size. Oh... we ordered a medium deep dish. It was eight pieces and was too much for two people. Because we were going to a show after dinner, we didn't box up the leftover two pieces. This size pizza would be great for four people to share. We will continue to look for great deep dish pizza, but we definitely found a good one at Bourbon House Pizza.

We hadn't been to Newport on the levee in a while and were quite surprised at how few people were around. Idk if it's normally like this now or if something was going on, but it was kind of shocking. We got the pretzels and cheese appetizer, which was good. We know deep dish takes longer to make and cook, but we didn't see our waitress or our pizza for an hour after we ordered. The pizza was good, not great. I can describe it as the thickness and weight that most people that haven't had a real deep dish would think it should be. The crust is very dense, not light and airy. It's also kind of spicy, which I liked, but my wife didn't. It was kind of loud, even though there weren't very many people in there. They also have TVs with sports on all over, so it's kind of a sports bar/sit down restaurant. We would recommend it and would probably go back.

From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with warm hospitality that makes you feel like part of the family. The ambiance is cozy yet lively--perfect for a casual dinner, a family gathering, or even a date night. Their pizza is absolutely fantastic (especially the deep dish). The calzones are generously stuffed, baked to golden-brown excellence, and bursting with savory goodness. Don't miss the hoagie sandwiches--each bite is packed with hearty meats, fresh veggies, and just the right balance of seasoning. And the lasagna... wow. Layers of pasta, rich sauce, and melted cheese come together in a dish that feels like pure comfort food. What truly sets this restaurant apart is the combination of incredible food and genuine hospitality. The staff go above and beyond to make sure every guest feels welcome, and the atmosphere is warm, inviting, and full of charm. Overall, this is more than just a restaurant--it's a place where great food and great people come together.

I was greeted quickly and while looking at the rotating menu board behind the counter and trying to decide. I was directed to the menu laminated on the counter. Duh! even though I was alone I got a small meat lovers pizza and sat out back. The back was like a fenced in backyard with tables and umbrellas. When the guy brought my (great tasting) pizza out he told me to turn on the fans and basically make myself at home (my words, I was the only one there). I enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Laid back, relaxed and they even have a bourbon bar upstairs. How can you beat that. When I'm in town next year, I'll have to check them out again. You should too!

This is a review on the food that was ordered while we were at the speakeasy above the pizzeria…read more We ordered a caprese salad and the Vinny pie while upstairs at the speakeasy on a slow Thursday afternoon. The gentleman who brought us our caprese salad, didn't directly say anything to us, but instead spoke only to the bartender (as he placed the salad in front of us) and told him not to place any more orders for caprese. He seemed inconvenienced by our order and more interested in his smoke break. We were surprised at the presentation and at the lack of flavor but assumed that the pizza would be amazing! based on what we had read and heard - but were incredibly disappointed. The pizza was flavorless and Incredibly greasy. Our impression is that this must be a great location for college students or those who have enjoyed their drinking experience and need some grease to sober them up and don't mind what they are eating. We were very let down in our experience and the lack of professionalism from the employee who seemed to think that since he was in the speakeasy, he didn't need to be professional.
