The Best Pizza Near NOA, by the Record
-
Rank 1. Kaja Pizza Köök
Pizza
-
A small family-run pizzeria in Tallinn's old town, where the Italian-style pies come out with a pronounced crunch rather than the soft, floppy fold you might expect. The room is tidy and classically furnished, with outdoor tables in summer when the medieval backdrop does the decorating. The menu runs beyond pizza to starters and mains, though the Diavola 2.0, spicy salami with stracciatella and 'nduja, is the one people talk about. Ranked 45th in 50 Top Pizza Europe.

Rank 3. Forza
Pizza
A Neapolitan-style pizza restaurant in a bright, roomy space that somehow avoids the rustic-trattoria cliché Helsinki has seen plenty of. The dough is the thing here: well-cooked with enough structure that a loaded slice holds its shape rather than folding into a sad triangle. Some ingredients come straight from Italy, and the kitchen has a light touch with bold combinations. It ranked 25th on 50 Top Pizza Europe, which for Finland is a long way from the usual suspects.
