The Best Pizzerias in Philadelphia

Cheapest Pizzerias in Philadelphia

Philadelphia has its own pizza dialect, and it starts with the tomato pie. This is a rectangular, focaccia-thick square topped with a thick, slightly sweet tomato sauce and almost no cheese, sold at room temperature from the city's old Italian bakeries in South Philly.

Around that tradition the city runs a serious modern scene. Neapolitan is the most common style on our map, and a strong wood-fired wave has opened across South Philadelphia, Fishtown, and the Italian Market blocks, close enough to New York to trade cooks and ideas with it. The city groups under the United States hub.

The most popular pizzeria in the city by review volume is Del Rossi's, one of 37 we list. Did you know Philadelphia tomato pie is meant to be eaten cold? The bakeries bake it in the morning and it sits out all day, which is why the sauce, not the cheese, has to carry it.

Prices read fair. A wood-fired margherita usually lands between 14 and 20 dollars; a square of tomato pie costs a few dollars. The spots ranked here are ranked by what people who came for the pizza actually thought, not by which counter had the longest line.

FAQs about Philadelphia

Where should I start with pizza in Philadelphia?

Start with Del Rossi's, the listing with the most review activity, then add a tomato-pie bakery or a modern sit-down pizzeria for contrast.

What pizza is Philadelphia known for?

Philadelphia tomato pie is the local marker: a thick rectangular bakery crust topped with tomato sauce and little or no cheese, commonly served at room temperature.

Is Philadelphia tomato pie the same as pizza?

It belongs to the city's pizza tradition, but it eats differently from a hot cheese pie. The sauce leads, the crumb is focaccia-like, and many bakeries sell it by the square.

Which Philadelphia neighborhoods are good for pizza?

South Philadelphia, the Italian Market, Fishtown, and Center City hold useful clusters. The right area depends on whether you want bakery tomato pie, slices, or a booked dinner.

Yes. Neapolitan is represented on the map alongside New York-style and New Haven apizza.

Is Philadelphia pizza like New York pizza?

The cities share a strong slice culture, but Philadelphia's bakery tomato pie gives it a separate identity.
