The 50 TOP PIZZA USA 2023 rankings have been revealed, with “Una Pizza Napoletana” in New York claiming the esteemed title of the Best Pizzeria in the United States for 2023, following their success last year. Renowned for its influence in the industry, the guide employs over one thousand anonymous inspectors who operate across five continents.
Securing the second spot is “Razza Pizza Artigianale” in Jersey City, while “Ken’s Artisan Pizza” based in Portland takes the third position. These exceptional establishments represent the top three pizzerias in the United States for 2023, as announced by 50 Top Pizza, the sector’s most influential guide.
Coming in fourth place is “Tony’s Pizza Napoletana” in San Francisco, closely followed by “Pizzeria Bianco” in Phoenix at fifth place. “Ribalta” in New York holds the sixth position, with “0′ Munaciello” in Miami securing the seventh spot. The eighth place goes to “Jay’s Artisan Pizzeria” in Kenmore, while “Song ‘E Napule” in New York claims the ninth position. Rounding up the top ten is “Kesté” in New York.
“New York continues to assert itself as one of the leading cities in the world of pizza,” emphasized curators Barbara Guerra, Luciano Pignataro, and Albert Sapere. “It is the city with the highest number of pizzerias globally, with over 7,000 establishments serving pizza. The exciting development lies in the growing quality of venues in the city of Portland. California boasts the most pizzerias in the state. The American movement is experiencing great enthusiasm with a new generation of artisans who are increasingly focused on the quality of their products and ingredients, enjoying significant momentum in the past year.”
With a notable presence, New York once again emerges as the pizza capital of the United States, with ten establishments featured in this year’s top fifty. Portland, San Francisco, and Miami share the second position, with each city having three venues featured in the guide.
The comprehensive ranking reflects the meticulous and extensive work carried out by the team of 50 Top Pizza inspectors. Over the course of a year, they diligently evaluated numerous pizzerias across the country while strictly adhering to 50 Top Pizza’s policy of anonymity. The assessment criteria primarily focused on the quality of the dough and the ingredients used for the toppings. Factors such as service quality, wine and beverage offerings, and overall customer experience were also taken into consideration.
This year’s ceremony was hosted by Andrew Cotto. The after party, held at La Devozione restaurant, served as a dynamic platform for the thriving American pizza community. With nearly 200 participants from all corners of the United States, this celebratory event not only marked their impressive rankings but also provided an excellent opportunity for the community to exchange ideas.
The top 15 positions in the USA 2023 ranking have earned a coveted place among the 100 Best Pizzerias in the World, which will be unveiled during our event at the Palazzo Reale in Napoli on September 13th.
The 50 Top Pizza event will take place on July 12th in Rome to present the Italian Guide and announce the Top 100 rankings.
