Ohio Valley Pizza

A new twist on classic pizzeria pizza

426 South Court Street | Medina | ohiovalleypizza.com

Ohio Valley Pizza is a company run by a family of pizza enthusiasts who grew up with delicious, square pizza from a place called DiCarlo’s. Unfortunately, in Medina, the nearest DiCarlo was over two hours away. Dave and Amy, certified pizza enthusiasts, contacted the owner of DiCarlo’s and asked for advice on opening their own pizza place and selling those famous square pizzas that they grew up on. Mike DiCarlo was more than happy to help the young couple with their Square Pizza dreams, and a few years ago the Ohio Valley Pizza Company held its grand opening! 

Their pizza is absolutely delicious, and their square pizza style brings a unique joy to eating at their restaurant. We recommend checking it out!
