Forkelo ranking · Updated September 2026
6 margherita pizzas across San Francisco, ranked on what people say about the dish itself — never the restaurant's overall rating.
A16 · Marina
6 dish-specific mentions · 83% positive · 3 source types · menu verified September 2026
Chewy wood-fired crust with light sweet tomato and fior di latte; Infatuation calls it a true proficiency test.
Il Casaro Pizzeria & Mozzarella Bar · North Beach
6 dish-specific mentions · 67% positive · 3 source types · menu verified September 2026
Airy wood-oven crust with light tomato and mozzarella; locals treat weekday happy hour as the value play.
Tony's Pizza Napoletana · North Beach
6 dish-specific mentions · 50% positive · 3 source types · menu verified September 2026
Wood-fired Neapolitan classic with leopard-spotted crust and fior di latte; the daily cap sells out early.
Flour + Water Pizzeria · North Beach
6 dish-specific mentions · 67% positive · 3 source types · menu verified September 2026
Naturally leavened North Beach round with bright sauce and chew; big slices draw praise and watery-center dissent.
Pizzeria Delfina · Pacific Heights
4 dish-specific mentions · 75% positive · 2 source types · menu verified September 2026
Thin, balanced tomato-and-fior pie that Pac Heights regulars still split as a light dinner staple.
Long Bridge Pizza · Dogpatch
6 dish-specific mentions · 50% positive · 3 source types · menu verified September 2026
Thin sourdough Dogpatch pie with basil and a little kick; loved for sauce and crust, dinged when under-sauced.
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.
