The pizza was amazing but Kevin wasn’t. We walked up there and he yelled at us for being a couple minutes past when he said the be there, and proceeded to make fun of us and talk crap as we were paying for the pizza I recommend the pizza but do not recommend Kevin…
Pizza was top notch. Been awhile since I had Kevin's pizza. Still the best in the city. Love reading the hater reviews. They don't deserve Kevin's pizza.
Just moved back to St Louis. First time trying pizza in the area. Kevin answers the phone, makes the pizza and is one of kind. The pizza was delicious, not spicy, has plenty of toppings. I ordered a sausage and black olives. It was and an extra large for under $25.00. I highly recommend Kevin's Place for a yummy Pizza in the city of STL.
It's Kevin, one of the most infamous people in St. Louis... if you haven't met him, you've probably heard stories or read about him in the Riverfront Times. He is a wonderful guy and I really miss being able to dine in and strike up conversations with him :( Kevin takes pizza seriously, and it pays off in dividends. Speaking as a connoisseur of the [rather divisive] St. Louis style pizza, I will confidently say that he makes the best I've ever had! The default cheese is provel, and sure you COULD substitute in mozzarella, but then why are you ordering from a StL pizza place? Typical of this style, the pizza sauce is a little sweet and the crust is thin with the perfect amount of crispiness. My go-to is always pineapple and jalapeno, which strikes the perfect balance of several different flavor profiles. My five-star rating for the service and atmosphere are from a time before Covid when you could dine in. Kevin was - and is - a one-man operation; somehow he managed to do it all (including deliveries). Even considering that, he was always on top of things like providing refills or taking requests for more food, etc. The old Cherokee location was a shotgun style house, nice and cozy. The current place on Mardel is huge with terrific outdoor seating, located in beautiful South City surrounded by traditional St. Louis brick homes. Reminiscing about the many times that my friends and I would dine on the patio just makes me miss it more. Kevin, if you see this, just know that I would be a regular again if you ever allow dine in.
The ordering experience was a bit odd in regard to picking up my order (which you are told not to do) in front of the store where i felt I shouldn’t have been. But all in all I the pizza was some of the best I’ve had and the customer service was great. Kevin was nice enough to make sure I knew where to pick up (which again, you shouldn’t do) and gave me a nice and hot pizza to take home. Good guy if you don’t mess around, don’t believe everything you hear.
Pizza was great- will definitely order again! Both warm and fresh, as well as, reheated leftovers- it tasted good. Ordered through the suggested app- timing was accurate to what was quoted. Pizza was delicious. It is what you hope for when you have a craving. I wish there were more descriptions or modifiers on items (salads, sandwiches, etc). The Caesar salad I got scratched my itch but was literally lettuce and dressing. I’m so down to pay for extra toppings but I also understand if that’s not their model. More like 4.5/5 stars with so much potential to be a solid 5. Delivery driver was very polite, which was refreshing.
Not to be hyperbolic but Kevin's is the best pizza in the city. His toppings are flavourful, his sauce is tasty, the crust is crunchier than imos and the cheese is well ... Provel ... So it's good. I've been eating Kevin's pizza for over 10 years and have never been disappointed.
I wasnt sure what to expect when we walked into Kevin's Place but it sure smelled delicious! Kevin himself served us and after mentioning that we had driven around for an hour trying to find a place for brunch and that we were starving Kevin took our pizza order and then brought out a little snack to tide us over. The supreme pizza was delicious, Kevin was friendly and efficient and we would definitely go here again.
