Cousin Vinny’s Pizza

Cousin Vinny’s has been a reliable go-​to for my pizza fix. Very tasty casual pizza at very reasonable prices. Favorite specialty pies are the Florentine and Buffalo Chicken.

I was staying at a hotel near by and i got the late night munchies. There were no other pizza places open but luckily Cousin Vinnys was open! I ordered their traditional hot wings with ranch, a small deluxe pizza and cinnastix. My wings were on point. I had wished that i ordered more! The pizza was delicious! The cinnastix we’re pretty good as well. I will definitely be ordering from here next time I am in the area!

I was very excited to order from one of my favorite pizzerias. After receiving the pizza, there was an advertised deal that was not discussed on the phone written on the box. I called them after getting the pizza and asked what we can do to receive the deal since it was never brought to my attention after asking for their specials. They told me I can drive there and get the pizza. Instead of making the customer number 1 and offering to drop off the item (s) to the customer they said I can come back and get it and pay the difference. Upset — I asked to speak to the manager to which they put me on hold and eventually hung up on me after 5 minutes.

Service is good. But the quality of the pizza is okay. I think it was the sauce. There didn’t seem to be much of it and what there was had very little flavor. They do have really good specials, but there are a lot of pizza places that are frankly better for not much more in cost.

Ummmm got a veggie pizza extra shrooms! The best I have ever had for a late night corporation. Thank you.

This is my second time enjoying the pizza here. First time I got the Crimson Red (has potatoes so I had to try it) and then a custom four topping pizza. Both were really good, and I ate more then I could hold in one setting. Today I got a pickup special, large two topping (bacon, extra cheese) for $ 7.99, and since I Unilocaled I was able to get a free 22 oz drink. Best part was he wasnt familiar with the free drink, so I showed him but he was going to offer me it regardless. A sign that they are more interested in customer satisfaction.
Ill be back.

I am a regular because of the quality of product and quality of service.
In over a year of purchasing here, I have had only one mixup and they were quick to make it right. Not to mention no matter how busy or slow they always make me feel like my order is important. Very rare when calling for a pizza.

It’s the classic late night crave, you know the place, that you run to for a couple pies after last call and booted from the pub, when you are pump to extend the night not understanding the food/​alcohol coma due to come after a slice or two. Vinny’s is open until 4 am most nights.
To find it go up Kenny after it splits from Godown in a sharp right hand curve going north, and goes by a desolate block of warehouses by the tracks. It is in the dusty buildings under rustbelt eroded signage to the eastern side of the road, next to Kenny Market.
A part of the coalition of triangular cut pizza, a formulation that some swear can’t be found in Columbus for some reason, Cousin Vinny makes a smooth pizza. What I mean by that is there formula isn’t heavy on sauce, nor cheese, nor crust so your not overwhelmed by one aspect of the slice. I had a $ 8.99 two topping large deal and got onions with bacon. All the ingredients agreed with each other and was a nice whole. The sauce was delicious but not overbearing. Unlike some other places, it didn’t have a bubbling greasiness that felt like it was eating the lining of my stomach, nor was the cheese piled so thick as to make me have regrets the next morning. Yet it still had flavor. It was smooth but not boring, not pop-​jazz Kenny G smooth, but like Miles Davis smooth when he is playing the trumpet like Sunday Morning coffee.
If you are picky about pizza, which from reviews of parlors about town indicates many are, take my advice with a grain of salt. I don’t see pizza as some gourmet signature dish deserving of high taste criticism or applaud. To me its dorm room junk food, something to chow down when lazy or to satisfy a craving. If you are like me though try it. Cousin Vinny makes great pizza, at a nice price, and it doesn’t make you feel the next morning like you drank gasoline.

Great service. Called and asked for order to be ready a little later due to traveling in from a trip and the staff was very accommodating to my request. Will be a regular from here on out!

I love Cousin Vinny’s! Good pizza, good wings, and I usually pass on breadsticks at pizza joints but theirs are great — thin, soft, and doused in parmesan and garlic butter. They have cheap deals, quick service, and late-​night delivery with a fairly wide delivery area — which saved my life a few times when I worked second shift and lived deep in the butt of Dublin. Their online ordering system has been down for a while but that’s pretty minor, all things considered. I definitely recommend giving them a try.

Great pizza and amazing bread sticks! Friendly and fast service late at night, I would definitely recommend!

When I moved to CBus I was sad about pizza. Tried the ‘Ohio’ square stuff from Donatos and a few other places. It made me sad, I wasn’t looking for squares or a sickeningly sweet sauce. I missed east coast meets NY style pizza. I tried H. Dog’s Smokin’ Joes. It was on track but still not an ‘I’d totally go back there’ ranking.
I’m super close Cousin Vinny’s is right next door to Kenny Road Market– my fave place to seek out beer. So naturally getting beer one day we were like, let’s get pizza!
I had delivery, pickup, ordered online, called orders in, and any other possible way to procure a pizza from them. We’ve gotten pizza from CV’s 10 plus times in the past year we have lived in Columbus. There’s no other restaurant that I’ve been to/​eaten at any where near a comparable number of times anywhere in Columbus. Suffice to say we think it’s pretty freakin’ good pizza.
Their sauce is solid. Not overly acidic or sweet in the least. Most tomato based pizza sauce kills my stomach but not CV’s sauce. It has yet to be super greasy. The fact that they use red onions is an entire star for me. That’s what I like to see! Things that contribute to actual flavor in pizza! Plus there are some stellar pick up specials and there are always deals online.

Pizza is one notch above Little Ceasar they use Hormel pepperoni. Breadsticks good and wings were oven baked and nasty rubbery. For $ 9 with a coupon I’d say it’s fair but probably not going to repeat w/​o coupon.

Cheap pizza that’s pretty delicious! I love their late hours. It’s perfect for those nights out after the bar when you get hungry.

I love this place. They stay open until 3am most nights. It’s great if you ever get off work at 2 to find a place that’s actually open. The pepperoni pizza is $ 6.99 if you pick it up– and compared to a place like little caesar’s it’s definitely worth it for the $ 2. I asked an employee about the cheese and he said it’s a provolone mix.

Okay… so let’s talk pizza categories.
For me, there are three.
First, the world renowned stuff… Chicago’s deep dish; New York’s thin crust; authentic Italian pie… there’s no competing with that stuff. You go to these destinations, you eat their pizza and you relish the experience forever.
Then there’s local favorites… the local businesses that do their thing their way. I’m personally a fan of Houndogs and Whole World. Oh my goodness… so good!
Finally, there are chains… Papa Johns, Donatos, etc. I’m slightly ashamed but sometimes life presents too many obstacles and you need something to eat quickly and on the cheap. And it was these obstacles that brought me to Cousin Vinny’s. They had a pick up special: any size, any toppings, $ 10. It was late, I had a hankering for junk food and they got my business. I ordered spinach, red onions, mushrooms— and it was actually really good. I mean… for the pizza category (chains)… it was a pretty awesome meal.
I wouldn’t choose this place over Whole World or Giordano’s but in the world of chains, Vinny’s is pretty good.
Sketchy-​esque neighborhood. Very dark. And a sign stating that they lock the door after 10pm… you might wanna bring your pepper spray.
And absolutely no room for dining in. Order and you can either pick it up or have it delivered for 2 bucks.
so yes… set your expectations appropriately and then enjoy the deliciousness that is Cousin Vinny’s.

I’ve tried a lot of pizza since I moved to Columbus several years ago, and this is one of my favorites. If you’re looking for a nice, traditional pizza that’s not hard on the wallet, Cousin Vinny’s is the way to go. The cheesy breadsticks are amazing, too!

Cheap decent pizza, good specials too.

Good pizza with unbeatable price. I was hesitant to try because less expensive pizza tends to be greasy and flavorless. I’m glad I tried! If you like pizza where the box is darkened from excess grease, this isn’t the pizza for you
Instead, the pizza is full of flavor and NOT full of grease. Great price too.
I highly recommend this place.

Recently moved to the area and were trying different pizza places around our new place. Cousin Vinny’s had left us a door hanger one night, and being as how we had just been discovering local watering holes, we called them up for some drunk indulgence.
I ordered them again (in a more sober state of mind) just to be sure, and again, everything was delicious! The pizza came hot, with plenty of cheese and toppings. They have a great garlic dipping sauce, if you’re into that kind of thing.
Needless to say, we’ve found our neighborhood pizza shop. Their prices are great, and the coupons they have out are even better. The best part: they are open until 4am.
Sold.
