Sicilian pizza is thick, square and built for the bakery, not the pizzeria. Its roots are in sfincione, a spongy Palermo flatbread topped with onion, breadcrumb, a little anchovy and caciocavallo rather than mozzarella. The modern square slice keeps the airy, well-risen base and the generous hand. Did you know? Sfincione traditionally turns up around the Sicilian holidays, and its name traces to a Latin word for "sponge." It is also a direct ancestor of American Detroit-style and grandma pies. The spots below carry the tradition from Sicily outward. We ordered them by what people who came hungry actually thought, not by the size of the tray.

Sicilian pizza FAQ
What is Sicilian pizza?
Sicilian pizza descends from sfincione, a thick, spongy rectangular pizza from Palermo topped with tomato, onions, anchovies, breadcrumbs and caciocavallo cheese rather than mozzarella. The American Sicilian slice is its square, thick-crust descendant.
