The Best Pizza in Overland Park
In a world filled with fancy food trends and viral recipes, pizza remains the dependable favorite. It is warm, cheesy, endlessly customizable, and always there when you need it.
These Overland Park pizza spots are serving up pies that make you question if sharing is ever really necessary.
Buffalo State Pizza Co.
Located in Downtown Overland Park, Buffalo State Pizza Co. is known for its massive New York-style slices. Their weekday lunch special is under ten dollars and gets you an oversized slice with two toppings, a side salad or breadstick, and a drink. If you opt for one of their specialty pies, you can't go wrong with The Maverick which includes meatballs, spicy capicola, salami, banana pepper and provolone cheese. While the pizzas are certainly the main event, Buffalo State's extensive beer list adds an extra layer of appeal.
Minksy's Pizza
Minsky’s Pizza has earned its reputation the old-fashioned way – by consistently serving great pizza for decades. As a Kansas City staple since 1976, it has become the go-to spot for family dinners, birthday parties, and laid-back nights out across the metro. The menu is packed with crowd-pleasers like garlic bacon cheese rolls, buffalo chicken tenders, seasonal salads, and nearly every kind of pizza imaginable. The kids’ menu features personal-sized pizzas, making it easy for parents to enjoy their own meal while little ones stick with a simple cheese.
Atomic Cowboy
Fat Sully's NY Pizza is located inside Atomic Cowboy and serves pizza slices that barely fit on the plate and definitely don't need a side. They've mastered the New York-style slice, making it crispy, chewy, and perfectly foldable. Alongside their pies, you'll find classic bar food like burgers, wings, appetizers, and more. With a full bar, late-night hours, and music that keeps things lively, this spot turns a casual pizza run into a full-on hangout.
Pizza Shoppe
Pizza Shoppe is a locally-owned restaurant that's been charming locals for generations, and not just for the pizza. Sure, the cracker-thin crust and classic toppings are solid, but the real legend here is the pink stuff: a creamy, tangy dressing is slathered on salads and used for pizza dipping. Regulars swear by it, first-timers fall in love with it, and somehow it always steals the spotlight (even when there’s a hot pizza on the table).
SPIN! Pizza
This fast-casual pizza joint serves both Neapolitan-style and Detroit-style pizzas that come out crisp and bubbly from the stone oven. Their signature pies are unique and packed with flavor, and our favorite has to be the sausage & apple, a delicious mix of herbed olive oil, Italian sausage, apples, glazed pecans and cheese. SPIN! is casual enough for a weeknight dinner, but the menu has enough variety to turn it into a whole evening out. Kids even get a free scoop of gelato with their meal, which never fails to win them over!
Dewey's Pizza
At Dewey’s Pizza, the open kitchen means you can watch every dough toss while sipping on a local beer. Signature pies like the Yukon Cornelius (yes, it has potatoes) prove that Dewey’s knows how to have fun with flavor. The atmosphere strikes a nice balance between laid-back and elevated, making it just as good for a family dinner as it is for a casual date night. You leave full, satisfied, and maybe a little curious about what you’ll try next time.
Grimaldi's Pizzeria
Grimaldi’s Pizzeria feels just a little more intentional than your average pizza place. The coal-fired oven is the star here, turning out pizzas with a crust that crackles when you cut into it. Tables are covered in red-and-white checkered cloths, the lighting is warm, and the build-your-own slices and pies are delicious. The staff is fully committed to the old-school Brooklyn-style pizza experience, even in the middle of suburban Kansas.
Rosati's Pizza
Looking for a pizza inspired by the windy city? Rosati's Pizza serves up Chicago-style pies and offers deep dish, thin crust, double dough and gluten-free options. They are known for the Rosati's Monster pizza, which is topped with Italian sausage, pepperoni, mushroom, onion, green pepper, Canadian bacon, meatballs, black and green olives, bacon, and tomato slices.
Pizza Tascio
Step inside and you’ll smell it before you see it... that slightly sweet, impossibly savory scent that means someone takes their dough seriously. Pizza Tascio leans into tradition with unapologetically large New York-style slices, slow-fermented crust, and ingredients that are sourced with the kind of intention most places save for fine dining. The white tascio pie combines their signature white sauce with whole milk mozzarella, Italian sausage, broccoli, and a touch of roasted garlic olive oil. You have to try it!
You could try to pick a favorite, but why put yourself through that? From cracker-thin crusts and coal-fired classics to giant slices that require two hands, each stop tells you something about the city: it knows how to eat well without trying too hard. Come hungry, leave happy, and maybe pack a to-go box for the drive home.
