One of things I wanted to try to do was get pizza in Louisville so I could color pizza in Kentucky on my map. I tried to do a search but didn't really find any close to the Slugger Museum or Slugger Field. I did one but we weren't overly keen on it. As we were leaving the Slugger Museum after getting my stamp, I stopped and asked the information desk people where to get pizza. Initially they suggested Luigi's (the place I looked at) but they were only open until 4. They suggested Bearno's which was just over a mile away. We opted to drive and try to find parking.
Bearno's is a local chain with 14 locations around Louisville and Southern Indiana. It has been around for almost 50 years. The downtown location on Market Street is open 11-9 daily and until 10 on weekends.
They are known for their Louisville style thin crust pizza and stromboli steak sandwiches. Since it was so warm out, we opted for a 14 inch cheese pizza and a couple of waters.
The pizza was fine. It was nothing to write home about. The crust was nice and chewy. It did have a little too much sauce on it for me. I would have liked some meat on it but the hubby just waned cheese. It kind of remembered me of Luigi's here in Wisconsin.
We are definitely pizza snobs. It takes a lot to wow us. The hubby says we have the best pizza here in the valley so it makes it hard to find great pizza when we travel. Orsi's in Omaha, Sal's in Cooperstown, Arris in Jefferson City, and Luna Rossa Winery and Pizzeria in Las Cruces are probably our favorites we found so far.
If you are in Louisville and craving pizza, Bearno's is a good choice. It is good pizza and offer a variety of choices. We are just that picky.
