The most well-represented city is New York with nine venues in the top fifty.  It is followed by Portland and San Francisco with 5 venues each.  The final ranking is fruit of a long and painstaking work by our 50 Top Pizza inspectors who, for an entire year, have examined an enormous number of pizzerias spread around the entire country.  Our policy of anonymity was strictly respected as is the case for all of our gastronomic guides.  The criteria for assessment?  The most important is the quality of the dough and raw materials used for the toppings.  The service, the wine and beverage lists and, in general, the attention and care given to the customer are also taken into consideration.

The top 15 positions in the USA 2022 ranking enter by right into our 100 best pizzerias in the world, which will be announced at our event at the Palazzo Reale in Naples on September 7^th.

“It has been an emotional return to the United States – underscore Barbara Guerra, Luciano Pignataro and Albert Sapere, the three 50 Top project curators – After two complicated years, it was truly meaningful to be able to meet the best 50 American pizza makers in New York, one of the great pizza capitals in the world.  We are truly delighted, but already concentrated on our next appointment which will be on July 26^th in Naples at the Teatro Mercadante, when we will reveal the best Italian pizzerias for 2022.”
