  • honey drizzle

  • brick cheese
  • crisp cheese edge
  • dense slices

Pepperoni, bacon and jalapeno on a thick pan crust with a honey drizzle and cheese crisped to the rim. Sweet against salty, and dense enough to slow you down.

How this ranking works.

Every score is built from evidence about the specific dish: how often locals recommend it, how strongly, how recently, and whether independent sources agree. A restaurant's overall star rating is never converted into a dish score.

Quality and confidence are reported separately. A dish two people loved can score high, but it is marked early ranking until more evidence backs it up. The whole calculation — every constant, and three dishes worked through line by line — is written out on the methodology page.
