Always get the Teritas Special and Meat loversm but add extra sauce, What sucks is my husband is allergic to Mushrooms so I order the Teriats special with no mushrooms and add hot peppers insteead and I get charged an additional $2.00 to swap toppings, do not understand why but it is what it is. I have been eating here for over 30 years it's a pillar in the Clinton Township Community read more

Nothing special about it. Very underwhelming. Pizza was Columbus style. Thin but this was pretty boring and bland. Unfortunately had to wait a bit in the front as I watch them not do much from the counter. read more

Terita's Pizza - (Stays in Rotation) North side classic that stays consistent. * Thin crust, square-cut * Sausage is the standout (slight kick, not heavy) * Toppings stay balanced--nothing overloaded First time: Sausage + pepperoni pizza (keep it simple) Best experience (this matters): Eat it fresh--this is at its best right out the box Keep it to 1-2 toppings max so the crust and sausage still come through Ask for it well-done if you like a little extra crisp on the bottom Once you know: Sausage + banana peppers or mushrooms What to know: * Better for carryout * Menu is straightforward * Known for consistency over time Atmosphere: Casual, no-frills, more takeout than dine-in Parking: Easy, on-site Price: $10-15 Wait: Usually quick Good pick when you want something reliable without overthinking it. read more

I get the hype now. I've been trying to check out this spot for a long time but no dine in sort of hinders that, but the weather was perfect so it was perfect to try it. We got their Italian sub with a large pepperoni cheese pizza. What a wonderful meal that was! For the longest time I've heard everyone compliment this place and I see why it's a lot of people's favorite. Amazing taste and excellent sub. Can't wait to come back and try extra toppings. read more

Man I love a Terita's pizza! This time it was a large sausage and green pepper, extra done. It was perfection. Hardest part is choosing what toppings I want. Love that you can choose your doneness - extra done is my preference because it bakes some of the sauce into the crust. Yummy yum! Wish it was closer to me but also glad it's not because I would eat it every day. I really need to try their subs too. Side salad is basic iceberg mix but sometimes I can't hate on a basic salad! read more

One of my top 2 spots for Columbus style pie. The hype is real! Small spot, carry out only, pizza boxes galore, excellent toppings (their sausage wins the award), staff is phenomenal, and consistently delivers time and time again. Sauce is to die for as is the cheese blend, and you honestly can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Make the drive, you can order online now, and it's worth it! read more

Always outstanding. The best pizza in Columbus. Consistent. Cup and curl, traditional pepperoni. read more

Amazing pizzas. The cheese is the answer it's what makes it special. Thin crust great sauce

Maybe it wasn't the best idea to visit to this place for the first time on a Friday during rush hour, in the dark, and in pouring rain, but that's the story. I accidentally turned into the car business next door and was promptly waved away before finding a parking spot by the restaurant. Inside, I observed a full, happy crowd patiently waiting for their orders. My order was ready and I must say the workers were very efficient and friendly to me. As I fought my way back home, blinking away my tears, I thought, "I hope this pizza is worth the effort." It was just okay. I decided to make another trip on a slower day in the daytime to give them another chance, but in the end, it's unlikely I will make it back. read more

One of the best pizza spots in Columbus. The sausage was a really good topping choice! Cannot wait to get another pizza from Terita's.

Been decades since I was here. Drive past once in awhile, but it seems out of my way. I guess it is, but it's not that far from my house either: 10-15 minutes. As close as any chain. They just got written up in Food and Wine magazine as being the best pizza in Ohio, and Sweetie said she felt like pizza for dinner, so, why not? Ordered online because it was before opening (4 on a Friday.) That went very well, a little surprising for an old-school place. Basic menu: pizza, subs, spaghetti dinner, salad. We got three small pizzas, plus an Italian sub so I would have leftovers for lunch tomorrow. Pickup was easy; clearly mostly regulars, staff and customers super friendly. Small place, no seats. The smells in the car and at home were awesome. And the pizza was darn good: thinnish crust, great toppings, great cheese and lots of it. Perfectly cooked. Cut in squares, unless you request otherwise (I chose "bite size cut" for Baby K's, which was perfect; you can also choose "pie cut.") It's Columbus pizza. IYKYK. If you live here, you've eaten it and probably never realized what it was. It's a very very good version. We all enjoyed ours- K got just cheese, Sweetie added pepperoni, I had sausage and ham. Yummy. Excellent sausage, plenty of it, and big slices of very good ham. I saved a bit of room to try the sub, and- wow. One of the best subs I've ever had. Good bread, stuffed with great meat. Cooked up just enough. Crispy on the outside of the bread, hot and juicy fillings inside. Again, yum. Double yum. I am full and still want more yum. We have plenty of leftovers. We'll be back. It's been way too long. There's a reason they've been here forever. It's not fancy, it's just great. read more

Apparently, this family run business has been around since 1959! 1959! So you know it's legit. It's garnered a neighborhood following, loyal customers who have eaten their pizzas and subs for generations. This was my first time going to Terita's, but just their sausage alone is gonna keep me coming back. It's a little far out for me, but there is something so comforting about their pizza and subs. It's very old school and the sauce has a really nice balance of salty and sweet. They're very generous with their toppings and cheese. and it's a classic Ohio pie. Meaning it leans more towards the thin crust, but you definitely get a good chew with a nice crust at the bottom and edges. But let's be honest, everyone knows it is famous for their homemade sausage. Apparently about 90% of their pizza has sausage on it. That in itself speaks for itself. And I can attest that it is indeed some amazing sausage. It's fresh, a decent size bite, a little bit salty...a little bit spicy. Perfection! The staff was also super friendly. I think I was greeted and taken care of by the manager there, who told me he had been working there since fifth grade!! The man knows his pizza . read more

Usually the pizza is really good but lately it seems to be tailing off. The last two times I asked for pie cut and I get the little squares which I can't stand. Please don't offer pie cut if you aren't going to do it. Also, the amount of cheese was minimal, almost tasted like a tomato pie. Maybe they have some new help? Regardless they need to get back and maintain the standard they've had for decades. Sad to see the quality dropping like this. read more

One of the best pizza around. Pizzas are small for the price. Too bad they don't have extra large. Bad location though.

This place door swang frfr(down south talk)...wife loved her sub and the pizza ...that sausage special (no diddy)

I have never had Terita's Pizza until now. I was very happy to enjoy the different pizzas like Pepperoni; Pepperoni and Sausage; Sausage, Green Peppers, and Onions; and Veggie. The Homemade Sausage was very spicy, but not overpowering and delicious sausage. I enjoyed the Garlic Bread with Cheese too. Despite Terita's Pizza is takeout only, they have been in business for over 60 years and have everything right to make their pizzas very special. I will have to go there and pick it up. Grateful to having Terita's Pizza with family and friends. read more

My family has been getting pizza from here for over 60 years. As a third generation customer, Terita's will always be a go-to. I put an order in for 2 large pizzas, the Special and a Pepperoni. They are 100% worth going into a not so great neighborhood for. The service is great. They were friendly and speedy. Once you go inside the shop there wasn't much space for multiple people watching for food but they don't make you wait long. Can't wait for our next order! read more

Terita's Pizza makes some of the best Columbus style pepperoni pizza. Teritas's unique spin is their crust is thin and crispy yet still has a little chew to it somehow, which is hard to craft in dough making and baking process. The edge-to-edge loaded pepperoni (Ezzo brand that cups and chars) and only provolone cheese. The best. Highly recommended. Location is very old school 70s - take out only. No seating. Don't change a thing! read more

I came here for the same reason as everyone else, the numerous glowing reviews and their award for the best pizza. Reading through all the reviews made me very excited because I love trying new pizza. I don't know if I set the expectations too high, but the food was completely mediocre. The pizza tastes like pizza you would get at Pizza Hut or a bowling alley, nothing special at all. In the politest way, I don't know how they won an award for it. The sub was better but also nothing to write home about. The parking lot is very full with people sitting in their cars, I assume waiting for their orders. Inside it is very hectic with a full tiny lobby and very stressed and busy employees. The workers had very good communication with each other, as they would need to fulfill all their orders. Their work ethic is commendable. I ordered a large pizza and one sub and it was estimated 45 minutes, for reference. I wouldn't tell people to avoid trying this place, but I would not come back. read more

Every once in awhile I get a hankering for a legit old school pizza place to try, and Terita's has been on my radar for several years. It's a take-out only joint, the place is tiny, there's no room to fit a table inside. I called and placed our order - I got their medium (12") Terita's Special - it was hot outta the oven when I got there, major steam rush opening the lid for a pic. 30 minutes drive home, and it was still warm. ***Note to Self: I need to get a pizza delivery warming sleeve - Tom H. enlightened me with this super affordable, but perfect, way to keep any pizza hot for the ride back home. The pizza was delish! LOVE sausage IN GENERAL, LOVE how Terita's tears their giant chucks off by hand instead of the boring uniform slices and small spheres. Their sauce was excellent. I don't like tomatoes, so Terita's pizza sauce is the first non-sweet sauce I've tasted and thoroughly enjoyed in a really long time. Not zesty or overly pronounced with herbs and spices, just pure tomato flavor - try it and judge for yourself, but I give it two solid thumbs up. Great toppings, nothing to knock in that department either. I wish I lived closer to Terita's, I love supporting local, and Terita's is an excellent choice. Great pizza, hands down! read more

Classic hole in the wall! 62 years of business that's fantastic! So it comes highly recommended! We ordered the Terita's White, the Hawaiian, & built our own pepperoni and mushroom. The counter person was a very quick, no nonsense sort of person. I like the safety steps they've taken: masks required and physical distance. You make your order and then wait out in your car. The pizzas were thin crust w Columbus cut. They are generous with their toppings. The sauce was perfectly flavored, the cheese was amazing. It had an amazing flavor. read more

Best Pizza in Columbus for my taste buds.... Since 1959 I used to get it at a relatives house in the 90's, I'd moved away until about a year ago, I rediscovered it. I've been missing out big time. They still make their own sausage, has a little kick, but not too spicy. Well balanced sauce. Not too sweet, not too tart. Mushrooms always taste fresh. Most of the time the crust is the slightly crispy on JUST the outer edges, still chewy on the rest of it. Pepperoni is good also, just a touch greasy... Everyone working there has always been very friendly. I hope they stick around forever... read more

Finally tried this this evening. Had been hearing how great it was but it was all the way on the other side of the city. Take out only . I really have y found pizza in Cbus that I love. Ordered the 12 inch half mushroom for me and pepperoni and sausage on my husband's half. The crust was thin but not too thin. They said if you want it thinner like a cracker crust or even thicker they could do it. The sauce was not sweet which was a plus and there was the perfect amount of cheese. Well worth the drive. My taste buds were happy. The only negative - ordering the 12 inch rather than the 14incn. Next time for sure. read more

I have only eaten here once since it's not too close to home, but it was great. I always get the same pizza from wherever I go. Sausage, onions and black olives. The flavor was really good, the service I got from the guys was great, and I have nothing bad to say. I usually get the same pizza from Zuko's, and this had a tiny bit more flavor and maybe a tad more toppings but overall it didn't live up to the hype and I think it's because Zuko's is so good, and they were so similar. Terita's wins over Zuko's by a small margin. read more

Excellent, old-school Columbus style pizza. Take out only. You won't be disappointed.

One of the best pepperoni pizzas Ive ever had! Also got a cheese pie and one with a bunch of toppings. Looking forward to going back! Place cranks out some excellent pies! read more

We love Terita's sausage white pizza and also pepperoni pizza with sauce. It's always worth the trip.

Best in town! Steady quality and great service for YEARS!! It's worth the drive time

The place isn't in the best area but the pizza is always excellent. Never had an issue with the service or food order. There's a reason they've been around so long. Their pizza is excellent. Best white pizza in town. The ambiance is great too, it would be a great place to bring a date and eat pizza in your car in the parking lot.... with your doors locked! Pizza is worth the risk, I promise you! read more

Found this place on Yelp. Looked to be right up my alley. Love fresh sausage and pepperoni that curls up into bowls. I was staying down the road on my way up to NE Ohio. I had a 10 am appointment. I get up at 7 am so instead of driving all the way up and then waiting a couple hours I decided to stay 2 hours away and try out a place I've never been to. I ordered a 10" pepperoni sausage and mushroom pie cut bite size. The flavor was great. I really liked the sausage. I suspect the mushrooms were canned but they were good. They forgot to put on the pepperoni. I was very disappointed but I didn't call because it was 8:00 and I didn't want to wait on a new one. If I lived near by I would definitely have this in my rotation. I wouldn't get it cut bite size. Too much cheese seeps through and gets stuck to the box liner. read more

Teritas is a great place for carry out pizza and other tasty things! I was introduced to Teritas 20 years ago when John and I were married. John went to school with the owners. I wasn't sure if I'd like it but that all changed with my first pizza and sub! Teritas also has a white pizza that is really good! They're usually pretty busy so order ahead!! read more

I'm just going to say this...Teritas is probably the BEST pizza in Columbus and one of the best I've ever had. That's saying a lot. I can't say it with 100% certainty since I still have places to try, but this place is amazing. It's a very small joint in a part of town most people would quickly drive through, but those tend to be the best places. The toppings are piled on, the crust is just crunchy enough, the sauce is flavorful and the price is right on par with what I'd pay. Highly recommended getting the sausage on your pizza. They're quick and the staff is excellent. They don't have seating at all, but that's ok. Eat it in your car for perfection or take it home (if it makes it there without you eating it). I can't recommend this place enough. Definitely my go to. read more
