TripAdvisor compiled the rankings by factoring the quantity and quality of pizza restaurant reviews, giving extra weight to reviews from the past year. Also, the ratio of pizza restaurant reviews to non-pizza ones was taken into account.
“Using time-tested techniques and premium ingredients, the top-10 U.S. pizzerias are successful as they always keep their eyes on the pies,” said Brooke Ferencsik, TripAdvisor’s director of communications. “These popular pizza joints toss up mouthwatering and sometimes unique takes on the American staple from apricot-sauced pies in Alaska to white clam creations in Connecticut.”
Here are the top-10 pizza restaurants, including a trademark dish for each:
1. Juliana’s Pizza, Brooklyn, N.Y.
Be sure to try: The classic Margherita, which comes from a brick-lined coal oven.
2. Pizza Time of St. Augustine, St. Augustine, Fla.
Be sure to try: Grandma’s Sicilian Pizza, as well as the garlic knots.
3. Moose’s Tooth Pub and Pizzeria, Anchorage, Alaska
Be sure to try: The Amazing Apricot, topped with apricot sauce, cream cheese, carrots, and chicken.
