Dewey’s Pizza – Crestview Hills, Kentucky

 

The Edgar Allen Poe

We have been wanting to have dinner at Dewey’s Pizza in Crestview Hills, Kentucky for a long time and it just never seemed to work out. It’s too far from our house to just go there for a quick dinner out and whenever we had more time somebody was not in the mood for pizza. We recently took a staycation to visit all the places that we always want to go and never do. Dewey’s Pizza was on both mine and my husband’s list. We had heard so many great things about the place and it was all true. We came in a little earlier than normal dinner rush because we had been doing things all day and were ready to eat. Dewey’s did not let us down. We were seated and waited on promptly and courteously. They seated us in a booth with a high chair on the end for Octavia.

The Don Corleone

We started with a Greek salad. It is field greens, kalamata olives, sundried tomatoes, feta, a ton of roasted garlic, red onions, cucumbers, and roasted red pepper vinegarette. It’s a really great salad and the dressing on this really makes it. So many of their pizzas looked delicious. We couldn’t agree on just one pizza so we ended up getting two. The first was the Don Corleone. It is topped with red sauce, mozzarella, pepperoni, genoa salami, capicola ham, and oregano. It was the perfect hearty meat pizza. Everything worked together very well. Our second pizza was the Edgar Allen Poe. It is topped with olive oil, mozzarella, fontina, mushrooms, roasted garlic, kalamata olives, and goat cheese with tomatoes and parsley after it’s baked. Ivy really enjoyed this pizza. I liked it but felt like there were too many fresh tomatoes and the whole roasted garlic was a bit much. I was able to remove some of the tomatoes but the garlic is much harder to remove as it is baked into the pizza. Ivy loves garlic and even eats the raw cloves so she was quite pleased with the garlic. She did agree about the tomatoes and removed about half of them too. The combo of cheeses on this pizza was amazing. I know that we would order the Don Corleone again. We would like to go back soon and try some of their other pizzas.

Price: Large Greek Salad $8.95, Large Don Corleone $21.45, Large Edgar Allen Poe $22.45 = $52.85 plus drinks and tip
