The Best Pizza in Milan, by the Record

A pizzeria where you can order a single slice à la carte or surrender to a tasting flight of four to six courses, each a different style of pizza served in sequence. The wine cellar is the quietly absurd part: a selection of bottles and champagnes that would embarrass most fine-dining rooms. Classic pies sit alongside fried and baked options, and the dough holds up its end. Ranked first on 50 Top Pizza Italy.

A Roman-style pizzeria transplanted to Milan, where the thin, wide rounds come in at 160 grams of dough, light enough that a second slice feels less like a dare. The room is small and loud in that companionable way. Supplì are the move to start, and the wine list runs longer than you'd expect. It lands on the 50 Top Pizza Italy list, which tracks.

The dough ferments for 48 hours before it ever sees a oven, which is the whole philosophy at this small, earnest pizza shop in Milan. Three styles are on offer: the classic ruota di carro, a contemporary version, and a pan pizza made with multigrain dough laced with bitter cocoa and coffee. A different vegan option rotates monthly, and the house desserts, including a riff on Key Lime Pie, are quietly serious about their job.

The dough gets 72 hours to think things over before a pizza here, and you can taste the patience. This is a sit-down pizzeria that takes its toppings seriously, sourcing Culatello di Zibello and Mazara del Vallo prawns for a room that could easily get away with less. Beyond pizza, small plates and a thoughtful Italian-French wine list round things out. Attentive service without the hover.

Crosta spends its days as a bread and pastry shop, then pivots at night into a pizza spot where round pies arrive pre-sliced on the plate. The two-room space feels like a cozy bakery that never quite changed out of its daytime clothes, which suits the informal mood perfectly. Doughs lean light, toppings range from classic to quietly inventive, and the wine list is short enough that you won't agonize over it.

The open oven anchors the dining room at this Milanese pizzeria, where vintage furnishings give the whole thing an unhurried, neighborhood-parlor feel. The Neapolitan-style pies run on a semi-wholemeal dough, light and properly puffy at the crust, and the toppings lean creative without getting theatrical. Wine gets a serious list; cocktails and draft beer show up in a supporting role. Regulars who know the menu by heart fill the room on weeknights.

A pizzeria on Via Pisacane where the dough is the point, made to sit easy and topped with ingredients chosen for quality rather than novelty. The white calzone with mozzarella and caciocavallo podolico is reason enough to visit, and regulars reportedly take the tomato sauce home in a jar. A short kitchen menu rounds things out, and the Sunday lunch crowd fills a room where you can watch the pizza makers work through the glass.

A soft, elastic dough built around the ingredients of Cilento is the whole point here, a pizza restaurant where the toppings read like a southern Italian pantry, nduja, sun-dried tomatoes, yellow cherry tomatoes, olives, with a stronger-than-usual lean toward vegetarian options. The open kitchen keeps things lively, the staff can actually talk you through the wine and beer list, and the appetizers and desserts are worth the detour. It ranks on 50 Top Pizza World.
