The Best Pizza Near Da Miky, by the Record
-
Tucked into the alleyways of central Levanto, this pizzeria builds its reputation on a thin, crispy crust kept deliberately light, so the toppings have somewhere to land without turning everything soggy. The menu leans into local ingredients and the craft beer and wine list is chosen to match rather than compete. Staff move quickly and the room stays convivial, which in a Ligurian beach town is saying something.
-
A Ligurian pizza spot in the center of Levanto where the dough is kept deliberately light, the kind that makes you forget you've eaten three slices. The toppings lean into local pantries, and the staff steers you through them without the usual fanfare. Craft beers and regional wines round out the short list. It's a small, tidy room, and the whole thing has the quiet confidence of a place that doesn't need to explain itself.

Rank 3. Fuoco e Fiamme
Wood-fired Pizza
Outdoor tables overlooking the Ligurian sea, strings of lights multiplying across the water at night, and a wood-fired oven quietly tucked behind a partition as if it has nothing to prove. This is a pizzeria in San Terenzo doing soft, foldable, classically comforting pies without any of the theater that tends to follow a good wood-fired reputation around. The service keeps pace without fuss, which at a seaside spot on a warm evening is exactly the right instinct.

Rank 4. Officine del Cibo
Neapolitan Pizza
On the outskirts of Sarzana, this artisan pizza shop splits its menu between classic Neapolitan rounds and a thin, crispy pan pizza that the kitchen has spent serious time developing. Toppings lean on local and small-producer ingredients, and the wine cellar is deep enough to suggest they take the pairing side seriously. It landed a spot on 50 Top Pizza Italy, which tracks for a place where the dough research is clearly ongoing.
-
Thin-crust pizza with serious toppings shares the menu with craft cocktails and a proper wine list at this gourmet pizzeria and lounge bar in central Sarzana. The dough is the point: light, crispy, and carrying its toppings rather than drowning under them. The beverage program keeps pace with the kitchen rather than pretending to. A 50 Top Pizza Italy listing for those keeping score.

Rank 6. Farina 44
Pizza
Tucked into the backstreets of Chiavari, this pizzeria gives you a choice most places don't: a low, crispy crust or a high, pillowy one. Either way, the dough is worked for lightness rather than bulk, and the toppings lean on local Ligurian products rather than reach for novelty. The Margherita 44 is the one regulars keep ordering. Good craft beers and wines by the glass round out a room that's cozy without trying too hard.
-
A Neapolitan-style pizza spot right on the Chiavari seafront, with bright, colourful rooms that lean into the holiday-town energy rather than fighting it. The dough is light and carefully sourced, and the kitchen pairs San Marzano tomatoes and Campanian fior di latte with combinations that wander well beyond the classics. The wine list holds its own, and the craft beer selection is taken seriously. Young staff who seem to enjoy being there round out the picture.
-
The open kitchen and pizza oven face the room so you can watch every pie come together, which at a Neapolitan-style pizzeria near the Marina di Massa seafront feels like a fair promise of what's coming. The dough runs soft and light, the ingredients lean on DOP-certified products, and lactose-free options sit alongside seasonal specials. Cloth napkins and cutlery rests suggest the place takes itself seriously without charging you for the attitude.
-
Rank 9. Battil’oro
Pizza
The work counter and visible oven sit center-stage here, which tells you what the room is about before you've even sat down. Battil'oro is a pizzeria in Versilia's increasingly crowded coastal dining scene, turning out both classic and creative pies on light, airy dough, with a gluten-free option alongside. Wines by the glass, beers, and cocktails round things out. Weekends fill up fast, but the team keeps the floor moving without making you feel rushed.
-
Rank 10. Apogeo
Wood-fired Pizza
A garden pizzeria off the A12 autostrada, which sounds like a backhanded compliment until you're sitting under the greenery with a wood-fired pie in front of you. The crust is the point here, crisp and substantial enough to hold its own, and the menu splits neatly between classic and creative without chasing whatever's fashionable this season. Desserts come from a separate, clearly capable hand. It ranks on both 50 Top Pizza Italy and 50 Top Pizza World.
-
Thin-crust pizza is the draw at this Quinto neighborhood spot, an old-school institution that regulars treat as a given rather than a destination. The staff will steer you toward something good if you let them, but the craft beer list is where the real conversation starts, and the owners are the kind of knowledgeable that makes you want to linger over a second round.
-
Rank 12. Marco Papa
Neapolitan Pizza
A Neapolitan-style pizza restaurant in central Genoa where the lighting is soft enough that you'll notice someone actually thought about it. The dough and the bake are the team's main argument, and the menu plays it out through a wide range of toppings, including the option to stuff the crust itself. Cocktails, wine, and beer round things out, and the service moves with the kind of ease that doesn't call attention to itself.
-
A pizza spot in central Genova where the menu starts before any topping discussion, because you first pick one of four doughs, each made with whole salt from Mothya. Seasonal ingredients get paired with enough care that the combinations feel considered rather than clever for its own sake. The room fills up fast, and the service keeps pace without losing its manners. Good local craft beers and a decent wine list round things out.
