    The staff here was really nice and personable! We came in right before the crowd got there. They were very friendly. We ordered a whole pizza and it took about 20 minutes to make give or take a bit. It was basic, half cheese, and half pepperoni. The crust was soft and melted in your mouth. The signature for me was whatever they made their sauce with really stood out from other pizza joints I've been to. There's a huge bar upstairs I'd recommend as well. But the pizza and friendly staff are my reasons for wanting to come back!

    Super good calzone. Good beer selection, and great whiskey selection. Only bad thing was waiting 10 minutes or so for anyone to say hi. Waited around looking completely lost and staff was too busy stocking and cleaning the bar. Not a bad thing, but a quicker acknowledgement would have been much appreciated.

    When hype meets reality you get a restaurant like this. We tried some pizza and an order of buffalo chicken breadsticks. Both exceeded expectations. The pizza is a relatively thin, but doughy, New York slice with a crispy bottom. Staff was kind and was working hard. 10/10.

    Giant slices, fresh salads, tasty food all around. A really cool vibe and generous servings for the prices. There's a few good fellas in the greater Cincinnati area and they're all worth visiting

    Friendly service!!! I was greeted as soon as I walked in. I got the lunch special and sat at the counter by the cashier. She was very friendly. We chatted in between customers. The pizza and breadstick were delicious! I got a slice of cheese. Plenty of cheese, the sauce was very light and had a wonderful flavor. The nacho cheese sauce for the breadstick was good too. After tasting the sauce on the pizza, I wish I would have gotten that as my dipping sauce. The gangster theme of the place is awesome! I didn't get pics because they were very busy. There is plenty of seating. You can sit out back or upstairs, besides the dining room seating available.

    Fun multi-story pizza joint. They have wiseguy lounge on the second floor with loft seating as well. Great seasonal and full cocktail menu, lots on draft as well. Everything we tried was delicious. Everyone is very friendly and the atmosphere is chill with a cool vibe. There is also a two story outdoor patio. The pizza menu is great as well with salads, sides, calzones, and a sub. They have giant NY slices that you can get by the slice and you can even get a huge 22in pizza. Highly recommend.

    Great pizza, chewy crust and fresh ingredients! Took the pizza to go but want to go back and check out the speakeasy.

  • 5/5 Liam A. 6 months ago on Google
    Didn't know you can get legit NY style pizza in Cincinnati. Crispy crust and delicious sauce.

  • 5/5 Ethan S. 5 months ago on Google
    This is a weekly lunch spot for myself and my office mates . Great NY style slices and the breadstick with dipping sauce could be a meal by itself. The lunch deal is an absolutely insane value! Staff there is AMAZING. We have patronized this place dozens upon dozens of times, and the folks behind the counter are ALWAYS on top of their game with a great attitude. Nice outdoor space. Chill bar area upstairs. In the heart of OTR.

    This southern girl fell in love!!! I flew to Cincinnati from New Orleans for the weekend to visit my mom and we had dinner here tonight. Im absolutely obsessed with this place! The pizza is phenomenal, the breadsticks are literally longer than deer legs and the service is top tier. I loved the outback patio!! Will def be back :)

    Really good pizzas. Casual dining spot. They have a couple high top table style seating indoor and some patio seating also. They offer 50% off on their 12" pies every Monday. You do not want to miss out on that. I recently tried their Artie Bucco which was their pizza week special. Really great like all their other pizzas.

  • 3/5 The Millennium R. 1 year ago on Google
    Definitely atmosphere over food. Food is average at especially at $5 a slice. If you're looking for a really great pizza youll do better elsewhere. But if u want a nice place to hang with friends and end the night with a cocktail and an average slice of pizza and breadstix? This is your spot.

  • 5/5 Tiffeny B. 1 year ago on Google
    I absolutely loved the atmosphere!!! The staff was friendly and seemed to enjoy working there. The pizza reminded me of a a slice from NYC. VERY TASTY. I got the lunch special: slice, Side, and dri nk for $9.00.

  • 5/5 Venkatesh K. 1 year ago on Google
    Everyone welcomed me with a cheer. Could be halloween fever, but it was nice. The pizza is really good. The crust was cooked perfectly. I had Cabernet Sauvignon with the tomato and basil pizza. Paired well. If you want to have drinks and pizza, this is a very good choice compared with other pizza toppings. The other pizza toppings were bacon, jalapeno and chicken, banana peppers. These were good, but not with wine. I finished the dinner with Rye-Bourbon style Old Fashioned. Thanks to shawn, for making an amazing old fashioned. This is a perfect classic in terms of level of alcohol presence. Good food, ambience and service.

    We are glad we found Goodfellas. Pizza is great and we loved the atmosphere. Kids were so excited the pizza was as big as their heads! Brandon was great and Goodfellas will be on the must do list when we make it back to Cincinnati.

  • 5/5 Michelle V. 1 year ago on Google
    Pizza and drinks can't be beat - great space with a great vibe and superb staff. Never had the single slice pizza you get on the main floor. But their full pies are excellent.

  • 5/5 Mike L. 1 year ago on Google
    This place has delicious pizza and good vibes. It has an old fashioned speakeasy feel mixed with an pizzeria. We ordered the goodfellas pizza and it was an awesome choice. They also had a really nice selection on the bar with some really neat looking and tasty drinks.

  • 5/5 Jared C. 3 years ago on Google
    Great place for single slice or whole pizza. The atmosphere is great treated very well by staff and they were very helpful on our selections, being new customers to them. The bourbon bar upstairs is the bomb, very knowledgeable staff. Last time I was there we walked in and right back out not seats. Went on a Monday late afternoon. Will definitely go back.

  • 5/5 David O. 2 years ago on Google
    Goodfellas is the best pizza in Cincinnati to my personal opinion, no matter if eat it at 12pm or 1am, it's always great, happy to know that all the branches around Cincinnati are great!
