Rank 503. Atomic Cowboy & Fat Sully's
New York-style Pizzeria
A floppy, grease-translucent New York-style slice shares menu space with a biscuit sandwich called the Franklin, which is exactly as chaotic as it sounds. Atomic Cowboy and Fat Sully's is a cocktail bar and pizzeria on East Colfax that has quietly annexed breakfast and turned the whole operation into a cheerful monument to comfort food. The crowd arrives thirsty and leaves very full, which seems to be the plan.

Rank 503. Gio's Chicago Pizza
Chicago Pizzeria
Gio's Chicago Pizza is a deep-dish operation run out of a commissary kitchen in the Nations, which makes it a little like finding Chicago hiding in a warehouse. The chef came up through fine dining and a suburban Chicago pizzeria, so the deep dish arrives properly tall and heavy. There's also a thinner tavern-style pie cut into squares, for those who think a knife and fork are overkill. Nashville Scene named it Best Deep Dish in 2023.

Rank 503. Pinky Ring Pizza
New York-inspired Pizzeria
Pinky Ring Pizza is a casual pizzeria in Madison, set up in a former Sir Pizza, which means the building already knew what it was getting into. The pies run from pepperoni and a New York-style cheese to stranger company like lamb with pistachio pesto, or one topped with dill pickles. There's garlic focaccia, a deep beer list, and half-and-half ordering for the undecided. Nashville Scene gave it Best New Pizza in 2023.

Rank 503. White Pie
Neapolitan Pizzeria
Wood-fired pizza shop in Denver's LoHi neighborhood, where the charred, garlicky pies lean into their New Haven roots without being precious about it. The menu runs white and red, and a frozen Negroni is always on offer, because of course it is. The team also runs a Mexican spot around the corner, and that same willingness to ignore what a dish is "supposed" to be carries over here. Casual, counter-order energy with pizzas that tend toward crisp, smoky, and just cheesy enough.
