The pizza was a thin crust but not crispy. Lots of toppings with a great meaty sauce. The bar upstairs is insane! Amazing selection of Bourbons and whiskeys. You can even buy some of their barrel picks!

Had a great experience overall on all levels at this eclectic hidden gem. We were happily surprised when we got to the top of the stairs from the pizzeria to find a classy yet cozy speakeasy style bar and lounge. All of our cocktails were on point in taste and presentation along with the professional poise of our mixologist. Hope to be back soon.

I really like this up the stairs bar. They have a good selection of bourbon. Their cocktails are creative and have lots of fresh ingredients. Comfy couches to converse on. Always have great music playing. You can have a pizza brought up from downstairs. Cozy place.

A must go to for Bourbon drinkers. Cocktails and pours are outstanding! Bartenders have a vast knowledge of mixology. Seasonal drinks. Pizza downstairs and fabulous times at the bar. Whenever family comes to town, first stop for drink and a welcome to Covington is Wiseguys

Great quiet spot that has amazing craft cocktails. The pizza is over priced. But the rest is the best spot for a chill night. Highly recommend the hatchet cocktail just for the show that goes into making it.

I’m usually a big fan of Goodfellas Pizzeria and the Wise Guy Lounge, but unfortunately, this particular location left a very unsettling impression. My partner and I had planned to grab some pizza and then head upstairs to Wise Guys, but our experience at the pizzeria itself made that impossible.

From the moment we sat down, the staff behavior was concerning. It started with some tension involving the kitchen staff. One of the kitchen team members came up to get a glass of water, and it was obvious that the staff behind the pizza counter were harassing him. It felt unprofessional, and my partner and I genuinely felt bad for the kitchen staff, as it seemed like he was being picked on or bullied by the employees upstairs.

Unfortunately, things went downhill from there. While we were enjoying our meal, a server behind the pizza counter made a completely inappropriate comment to a group of young teenagers sitting behind us. The kids were just laughing and enjoying some hot sauce—totally harmless—but the server suddenly said, “I bet you guys say the N-word,” and went on to accuse them of being racist while referencing video games they might play. The kids looked shocked and confused; they weren’t behaving in any racist manner at all.

It was appalling to witness this—patrons being publicly accused of racism for no reason—and it completely ruined the atmosphere. Not only was it unprofessional, but it also made everyone in the restaurant extremely uncomfortable. My partner and I couldn’t finish our food, and we didn’t even attempt to go upstairs as planned.

I will continue to support other Goodfellas and Wise Guys locations, but this particular location is off my list entirely. If you don’t want to experience hostility or unprofessional behavior, I strongly recommend avoiding this venue.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – Best Bartender in the Game!

If you haven’t had a drink made by Carl at Wiseguy Lounge, you’re missing out on a top-tier cocktail experience. Not only does he mix like a scientist, but he’s got the smooth charm of a jazz musician and the timing of a stand-up comedian.

I asked for a surprise cocktail, and this man paused, looked me dead in the eyes, and said, “You trust me?” Like a fool in a 1920s speakeasy, I nodded. Five minutes later, I had the best drink I’ve ever tasted—bold, layered, and smooth with a finish that made me reevaluate my life choices.

Cameron was fantastic whipping up amazing cocktails! Very personable and we stayed for another round because of him. Pizza from Goodfellas was great. First time here and will be back, if not regularly!

Great pizza, good selection of local brews and kick azz selection of bourbon. Servers and bartenders all super chill and helpful. So if you are not familiar with the makes and models to sip and shoot, this is the place to come and find what fits you in a relaxed and nonjudgmental environment.
