A local favorite forever, the interior hasn't really changed since I was a kid, but they added a bar counter with a really solid... selection, including some local beers on tap! The pizza is great, and the staff are all gloriously unique people who are abreath of fresh air. Apollo has, at times, had a little shady edge to it, which I like. It was always a bit of a local dive, butit is an awesome local dive, and we love it. Read more

Very disappointed usually have a good experience. I ordered a sandwich it was 1 hour and 20 minutes late. There was just a few... pieces of meat I called back they said it would be awhile to get another sandwich but I would have to give them the one theydelivered I said that?s fine. Keep saying it would be a wait. They would give me a credit for next time.. so disappointed Read more

Well prepared, interesting pizza options. Not just the usual fare- a step up from "pizza". Service was fast, friendly and... attentive. Atmosphere is cool and gives a good vibe. Probably the best pizza option in Richmond. Read more

We enjoyed our pizza. We got the largest one. It was huge! Could easily feed 4 super hungry people. The waitress was very... helpful and kind. Read more

Excellent Chicago style pizza (thin crust), and even cut correctly into squares. Quite surprising for being in Kentucky.... Savannah was our server, and she was great! Nice vibe, very clean, and a perfect date spot. Read more

First off, let me preface this by letting you know that we are from Chicago. We are insane about our pizza. Not that deep-dish,... tourist pizza, but REAL Chicago Pizza. The thin crust, party cut, tavern style pizza. When we moved to Kentucky a year ago andmy neighbor recommended Pizza Hut, I knew we were in serious trouble. We had tried just about everything and none of it wasgood. I started begging friends and family to bring pizza with them when they visited, just to get a fix. But that all changedthe day we walked into Apollo Pizza. The pizza gods were shining down on me that day. We just moved to Richmond and had no foodin the house and thought "why not?" I certainly wasn't expecting much. But when we walked in, it LOOKED like a Chicago pizzaplace and it smelled wonderful. We had ordered two thin-crust pizzas to go. When we got them home and opened the boxes ... THEYWERE PARTY CUT (little squares)!! Ok, ok...but how does it taste? IT IS AMAZING. I almost cried. I. Almost. Cried. It remindedme of a Barraco's or Vito & Nick's pizza from back home - arguably the best pizza in Chicago (don't @ me). Apollo, please don'tever close. We've already been to your establishment four times, twice in the last seven days. You have single-handedly savedpizza in Kentucky. And our little family will be your biggest supporters ? Read more

Overall great experience. Server was really friendly, made you feel like you were important. Even tho they were swamped and only... had one cook, pizza still came out in good time. Got a thin crust pep and bacon, wife got cauliflower pizza. It was good pizza,I think I had higher expectations. I would definitely go back to try other things on the menu! Read more

Simply amazing!!!! First time visiting this place and I absolutely loved it. The staff was very friendly and filled the drinks... often. The store was very clean and I like the way inside felt. The pizzas were reasonably priced and not expensive at all.Will definitely be going back the next time I am in Richmond. Pictured: Chicken and onion pizza and Garlic parmesan breadsticks. Read more
