Romans will tell you their pizza is the tonda romana: rolled paper-thin, baked until the base shatters like a cracker, with almost no raised rim. It is the opposite of the soft Neapolitan disc, built for crunch, eaten quickly, usually one per person. That scrocchiarella snap is the whole appeal, and getting it right is harder than it looks. Did you know? Roman dough usually works in a little olive oil, which the Neapolitan version leaves out, and that fat is part of what gives the tonda its brittle bite. The list below leans into the tradition across Rome, from old trattoria ovens to kitchens reworking the dough for a cleaner break. We ordered the spots by what people who came to eat actually thought, not by the line outside.

Roman-Style pizza FAQ

What is Roman-style pizza (pizza romana)?

Pizza romana tonda is the round Roman pizza: rolled very thin and baked until crisp and cracker-like across the whole base, with almost no raised rim. It is the opposite of the soft, pillowy Neapolitan style. Romans often call a good one scrocchiarella for the audible crunch.

Is Roman pizza the same as pizza al taglio?

No. The thin, crunchy round is pizza romana tonda. Pizza al taglio is the rectangular, by-the-weight pizza sold from trays in Roman bakeries, with a thicker, airier crumb. Both are Roman, but they are different products.
