America’s best pizzerias crowned in new rankings on Columbus Day

3 sources →

The 2026 rankings from 50 Top Pizza, an Italian-based guide, have identified the leading pizzerias in the United States. New York City’s Una Pizza Napoletana secured the top spot for the fifth consecutive year. The list also features a tie for second place between Los Angeles-based Pizzeria Sei and San Francisco’s Tony’s Pizza Napoletana. Rounding out the top five are Razza in Jersey City, Truly Pizza in Dana Point, and Francesco Martucci in Miami. While the list is well-regarded in the industry, experts note that such rankings are inherently subjective and may favor traditional Italian or Neapolitan styles.
