Best

Love to get a Lasagna dinnner, with salad and roll and get a small pep pizza for dessert. That's amore'. Pros: Excellent Pizzas, Love the lagsagna

Worst

Since relocating from the northern part of the state, I've yet to find a great pizza joint. This one, like all the other local Columbus favorites, features flat, flaky pastry cru...

Best in Columbus 9/19/2005

This is the best pizza by far in Columbus. If you want true Italian pizza, this is it. Delivery is now an option at the Sawmill location. Although, I'd still make the drive if I had to. more

Authentic Pizza and Excellent Subs 4/26/2005

The pizza has to be one of the best I have ever tasted in Columbus. I have lived here all my life and eaten from almost every pizza joint in town. They will make you a pizza to your specifications. The subs are toasty and stacked with fresh meats and cheeses. The super italian sub is my favorite. I never think I can eat it all but once I start I can't stop until it's gone. Take my advise try Rotolo's Family Pizza...the original Mrs. Rotolo is still making pizzas at the fifth avenue shop. The smell when you walk in the door will keep you coming back. Pros: New locations, Fresh, Best tasting Cons: No seating more

Yum 4/5/2004

Great pizza, only wish they delivered! But as my boyfriend will tell you (time and time again) it is worth the drive to pick it up. Haven't tried their pastas yet (because we can't seem to stop ordering the pizza!) but hope to in the near future. more

Try new Worthington Rotolo's 2/29/2004

The new Worthington Rotolo's on 161 is fabulous. The tradition goes on. Their pizza delights you in every bite. Value is excellent, but most of all the pizza is as always the best in the area. Good luck on the two other locations opening soon. Pros: exquisite pizza, value is great, clean and new more

TOPS! 8/4/2003

Rotolo's is the best pizza I' had since I hung around the original Pizzeria Uno in Chicago 1969-70. Its not the same as Uno's pizza. But it shares the characteristic that the word ""pizza"" should be uttered in basso profundo, whereas typcial pizza can be spoken regularly and get the message. Rotolo's spagetti sauce is the only sauce better than my own. A+++++++ Pros: extraordinary food, Wonderful People, Great Value Cons: closed Monday more

Good things from a small place 1/2/2003

For a long time this has been THE place to get good pizza. It still is! Not the big chain type location or store front but a place you can trust to make a pizza that will fill you up with goodness. Pros: Good value, Best Pizza, Good parking Cons: Not inexpensive, may take vacations more

Rotolo's hands down winner 11/27/2002

Rotolo's won the best pizza in Columbus for many many years and still is the best! We drive 30 minutes just to satisfy our craving. The weight of the pizza pie is unbelievable and the amount of cheese is the most anywhere. There is no pizza ANYWHERE like Rotolo's. more

Traditional and Family-Owned 10/3/2002

There simply isn't anything like Rotolo's pizza in Columbus! The crust is tasty, the sauce is perfect and zesty, and the toppings are always fresh. They're fast, accurate, and always friendly. Now, their pizzas are available at local supermarkets!! Pros: Good Value, Great Taste, Family Owned Cons: Closed on Mondays, No Delivery more

Excellent pizza 9/8/2002

This is NOT New York pizza. So if you are looking for NY pizza - go to NY. I haven't found a pizza in Columbus that is even close. But, this is still obviously fresh and tasty pizza. The ingredients are quality. They make every pizza for YOU - twenty five minutes for the pizza minimum..without delivery. It is also a VERY cheesy pizza. We call it the ten pound pizza. Biggest problems - there aren't enough of them, and they don't deliver. more

Anyone who thinks that Donatos pizza is better than Rotolos doesnt know jack about pizza. A large all the way pizza weighs about 10lbs. It tastes great and is a great value. Getting one is the only problem...No delivery... more
