TAGLIO OTR: Reviews & Ratings

We had lunch at Taglio's before a nearby Emory Theatre performance. Everything we ordered was very good and the service was incredible. The server guessed that we had tickets to a play, knew that we were cutting it close on time, and did a great job serving us quickly. In the middle of their busy day, they were hyper-focused on seeing that our day went well. As we finished, the server offered not just to box unfinished food, but to hold the boxes for us until after the play. How often do you see that?!? My only regret was that I failed to get the server's name. Additionally, I noticed another server walking through the restaurant and changing TV sport channels as games would finish. This was just another sign of an expertly managed restaurant. Well done.

This is my favorite pizza in Cincinnati. It beats Saint Francis, Trophy and all the others. Super friendly staff and a really nice atmosphere. I'm a big fan of their lunch special which is a small personal pizza, salad and a drink for $15. They have a New York style and Detroit style and they are both amazing.

Taglio OTR has such a fun atmosphere for the Bengals game! As always, food was delicious and service was impeccable. Pineapple Chipotle is absolutely delicious!! Added sausage to the Bianco at the suggestion of our server and it was amazing!

So good! We were the first customers for early lunch. Every ordered individual pizzas; all different and all delicious. The wait was a little longer than usual bc the oven wasn’t ready - but they gave us mozzarella sticks to hold us over. These were probably the best breaded fried cheese I’ve ever had so I’m glad it happened tbh. I will continue to bring guests here, great atmosphere, friendly staff & 10/10 pizza.

Taglio on 12th and Walnut Street in OTR has the best Detroit-style pizza in town. My favorite is the Bianco, the white pizza. The crust is a buttery cheesy focaccia-style. It is topped with EVVO, garlic, ricotta cheese, mozzarella, Parmigiano Reggiano cheese and basil. I've never found a pizza like this anywhere else. Taglio also serves NY-style pizza too. They offer house beers: Pizza Lager and Traveler IPA, among many others. Plus, their cocktails feature their JD Wayne bourbon! Taglio is a regular stop on Riverside Food Tours' Cincy Brunch Tour and is always a favorite! Eric and the staff are friendly and professional.

It’s been a week and I’m still thinking about this pizza. Specifically the vegan cheese. We had warm and inviting service, a beautiful glass of dry rose and large TVs at the bar to keep us entertained. I loved that this place is a mix of it all. The Spicy Italian pizza was the favorite of the visit. We also tried the buffalo chicken which was crushed immediately.
