There are plenty of eateries that offer authentic Italian fare in the city, but Forno Osteria & Bar is one of the few with true Neapolitan style pizza.

Tuscan minestrone, gnocchi, braised short rib and eggplant parmigiana are just a few of the other classics served from the Old Country. The wood-fired stove, cobblestone walls and simple ambiance give off the feel of a true Italian pizzeria.

Contemporary American fare with international twists is what's offered up at Cooper's Hawk Winery & Restaurant. As their name suggests, they're also pretty focused on wine. That's why every menu item features a bin number to help with pairing. Although their offering of best pizza in Cincinnati isn't traditional – instead focusing on flatbreads – it’s still exciting to enjoy these with a perfect glass of wine. The wall of wine behind the bar and around the eatery is imposing, but this doesn’t take away from the relaxing vibe created by the minimalist décor.
